Etymology
Leo's name is directly taken from the Zodiac sign "Leo", the Latin word for "Lion", befitting of his design motif and constellation of origin.
History
Past
Leo was born on Planet L77 in the Leo constellation, alongside his younger twin brother Astra, with them being similar to the beings of the Land of Light in Nebula M78. His status as Prince of L77 made him heir to the planet's throne. He and Astra were talented practitioners of Space Martial Arts, with them often training with the Cosmo Beast Fighters and the amnesiac Ultraman Regulos on Planet D60 of the Draco constellation, a planet with close ties to L77.Ultraman Regulos
Not long after a training session on D60 however, Planet L77 was destroyed after raging a war with the Alien Magma, a race bent on conquering the galaxy. As a result, Leo, Astra and Ron become the sole survivors of the planet's destruction.

Arrival on Earth
Leo in the series
One month after the incident, Leo had settled on a second home planet, Earth, under the human guise of Gen Otori, when a lone Alien Magma traveled to Earth with the Giras Brothers, intent on conquering the planet. Ultraseven was sent to intercept them, but was left beaten down by Magma, then had his leg brutally snapped by Black Giras, leaving him at the alien's mercy. Fortunately, Leo arrived before the trio could kill Seven. He defeated Magma's monsters, but the alien successfully escaped. With Seven's Ultra Eye broken, he remained on Earth as Dan Moroboshi, where he had been acting as the captian of the MAC for some time. Dan requested Gen to join as a member of the team while he was incapacitated, christening him as Earth's newest protector, Ultraman Leo. The Day When Ultraseven Dies, is the Day when Tokyo Sinks!

Battles on Earth
For the next few months, Leo would fight against creatures and aliens of all shapes and sizes, mostly from outer space. For a majority of his early battles, Leo would initially lose to his opponents, wherein he would undergo rigorous, oftentimes brutal, training from Dan to develop a new technique to take out the threat. During the battle with Garon and Littre, Leo reunited with his younger brother Astra, whom had been presumed dead, but had survived and been rescued by Ultraman King from the clutches of the Magma.

Leo vs. Black Directive
Ultraman Leo fights Black Directive's strongest Saucer Monster, Black End.
After Leo undertook many missions on Earth, Black Directive, a ruthless ruler from the Black Star sent his first saucer monster Silverbloome to begin his plan to take over the world, using it to kill off almost all of MAC with the exception of Gen, who escaped, and Dan, who was able to return to the Land of Light. After taking revenge on Silverbloome for killing his friends, Leo then faced down Black Directive's saucer monsters, destroying each of them in turn. As Black Directive's army waned, he sent Alien Bunyo to capture Leo, then brutally dismembered him, though fortunately Ultraman King intervened, reviving Leo, who then went on to deal with Bunyo.
With just one of his creations left, Black Directive released his most powerful saucer monster, Black End. Black End was proved to be quite a challenge for Leo but with the help of some children whom he trained before, Leo destroyed Black End and Black Star with his Shooting Beam. With no more threats, Leo bid farewell to his human friends, then traveled with Astra and Ron to the Land of Light.Terror of the Saucer Race Series - Goodbye Leo! Journey to the Sun
Ultraman Mebius
Ultraman Leo during his fight against Mebius.
Ultraman Leo returns in Ultraman Mebius episode 34 "The Man Without a Home" to help Ultraman Mebius fight Alien Reflect, an alien that had defeated Mebius in their initial encounter, and stated that he would return later to kill him and destroy the world.
Leo (as Gen) is displeased with Mebius' performance in the fight with Alien Reflect and refuses to accept him as the defender of Earth. He calls Mebius out, initially without revealing his identity, and the GUYS crew meet on the island that was once destroyed by the Gillas. Disguising himself an old man visiting the memorial of those who died, Gen tells Mirai that this is a place he will never forget- because in his first battle many people were sacrificed here. His talk with the group showcase he lost his sense of humor & become more serious after everything & everyone he knew on Earth was taken from him (Toru & Sakiko are possibly gone too at this point). He then reveals himself to be Ultraman Leo and transforms. Ultraman Leo then challenges Mirai to one-on-one combat, and after a brief but heavy clash between the Ultras, Leo easily defeats Mebius. As Gen, Leo asks Mebius and his comrades that he sees Earth as his home, and that he was testing the younger champion to see if he could defend it well. Even though Ultraman Taro accepts him as the defender of Earth, Leo admitted, he doesn't accept Mebius as the other Ultras do. As Ryu tries to tell him, Mirai stopped him. Gen asked him that his tears can help to save the Earth, so he gives him some robes in order to train him.
Back at the CREW GUYS station, Teppei discovers, according to Document MAC, Leo lost many battles against different Aliens. However, after each rematch, he easily beat them. The GUYS members realize and understand why Leo appreciates Earth so much, as, unlike Ultraman Mebius who calls the Land of Light his home, Leo's home was destroyed. The only place he has to go back to is Earth. Teppei later reveals that Leo taught him how to destroy Alien Reflect- with a move similar to the legendary Leo Kick. However, Leo can jump up to a thousand meters to deliver the blow, and Mebius cannot. Ryu later finds out why Leo gave him the robes- and offers to help Mirai train. Mirai, however, says that he wants to do it alone, just like how Leo fought alone. Nobody, he says, should ever rely on others.
And thus Mirai started to train. After managing to break many sticks by kicking them, he found himself completely exhausted. Ryu appeared, along Komoni and Teppei, and they decide to use the poles to make a bonfire. Teppei forgets to bring the matches to make fire, but Ryu says that they aren't necessary. Using a stick, he started to make fire like they had before the advent of technology. Mirai, shocked by how well it worked, was inspired to create a new move. A moment later, a message from Captain Serizawa arrived that said that the Alien Reflect had appeared again, and everyone departs for the field of battle.
Gen Otori smiles at Mirai
After they all arrived, Mirai wanted again to fight alone, and he suddenly materialized as Mebius to fight the Alien Reflect. At the time of the fight, Gen was watching from below. Mebius started to fight him, and after launching a kick at Reflect, he starts spinning like the technique Ryu used to make fire, and managed to break one of Reflect's shields. But suddenly, the alien captured one of the ships from GUYS, and if Mebius moved, he would have killed them. Rapidly, Gen transformed into Leo to assist Mebius, and he helped Mebius free the GUYS ship. They both combined their forces to defeat Reflect, and, combining the Leo Kick and Mebius' new technique Burning Mebiuspin Kick, they destroyed the alien once and for all. Mebius later then met with Leo, and Leo accepted that not only Mebius, but Crew GUYS as well can now protect Planet Earth.

Then when Seven’s Eye Slugger was sent as an S.O.S. Ultraman King sent Zero to the battle, followed shortly by Leo and Astra. When they arrived Zero had already defeated Belial and blasted him into a river of molten magma, but no sooner had they arrived, the spirits of 100 monsters started to flow towards Belial and formed the gestalt mega monster Belyudra. Leo and Astra then did their combo attack, while every one else attacked Belyudra on their own until Zero finished him off. Leo then returned to the Land of Light with the others.

However, Yapool sent his Terrible-Monster Battalions, Verokron, Doragory and Vakishim to take care of them while Ultraman Victory was taking care of Victory Killer and Lunaticks. Leo first took on both Verokron and Vakishim whilst Astra took on Doragory. The Brothers' battle was interrupted by the arrival of Yapool.

Leo was among the Ultra Warriors who fought against Belial and his army in the Omega Armageddon, and protected Zero after he was defeated by Belial at the climax of the war. However, Zero's failure to stop Belial meant that the evil Ultra could unleash Crisis Impact, which nearly brought about an end to the universe before King sacrificed his physical form to reverse the damage Belial had caused. Years later, Leo's power had manifested as Eri Hara's Little Star, which was retrieved as the Leo Capsule by Riku Asakura, allowing Geed to assume Solid Burning in conjunction with the Seven Capsule.

Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad
Leo and Astra fighting Absolute Tartarus in the miniseries' trailer
The Leo Brothers joined the forces of the Land of Light under King's command. On Planet K76, Seven, Leo and Joneus put Zero in a Tector Gear and spar with him, advising him that the only way that he could stand a chance against Absolute Tartarus was to fight by using his instincts, which he could only accomplish if Zero managed to regain the wilder side he had earlier in his youth, despite the encounters he had making him stronger up to that point. Looking into himself, Zero managed to unleash his primal instincts, changing into an all red form of himself. Just then, Astra arrived to inform the Ultras present that Tartarus had been spotted on Planet Babel, and was fighting Ultraman Ribut and the Ultra Force.
The five of them quickly rushed to Planet Babel and fought against Tartarus and his minions, later being joined by Ultraman Nexus and Seven's Capsule Kaiju - Agira, Miclas and Windom - when he summoned them. Zero used his new abilities and changed into Ultimate Shining once more to challenge Tartarus, who was caught by surprise. With Leo and Astra's help, the three of them drive Tartarus away.
After the rescue squad managed to escape from the Kingdom with Yullian and Ultraman Regulos, they arrived on Planet Blizzard pursued by the Absolutians and their forces, only for them to be met with a large gathering of Ultras. Leo, Astra and Regulos fought against Diavolo, overwhelming him using their Space Martial Arts. Regulos then unleashed the orbs containing the energy of the masters and gave them to Leo and Astra, combining their powers together to fire a beam that destroyed Diavolo.
At the climax of the battle, Tartarus was overwhelmed by Zero with his new abilities. He decided to unleash his Absolute Maximum Destruction on the planet, but it was blocked by a barrier from Ultraman King, creating a wormhole from the impact. Ultraman Ribut created his own barrier to protect the other Ultras present, but he and Tartarus fell through the wormhole and into Ultraman Trigger's universe as a result.

Trivia

- Although Leo has a time limit of 2 minutes 40 seconds, in some instances, he could be active for a longer amount of time: Such as when Leo was shrunk by Pressure, his Color Timer didn't blink although it was over 2 minutes 40 seconds until he was grown back by Ultraman King and then his Color Timer starts to blink. It is implied that Leo's time limit depends on his physical size.
- Ultraman Leo's grunts in the first half of episode 1 were low pitched and these were also used for Ultraseven in the same episode.
- Ultraman Leo is the second Ultra Warrior was based on Ultraseven instead of based on Ultraman, the first was Ultraman Taro.
- Ultraman Leo is the second Ultra to share his voice actor with his human form actor (Ryu Manatsu), who voices his grunts and speaking voice - the first one was Ultraseven.
- Leo was originally planned to have a weapon like Ultraseven's Eye Slugger whom Leo succeed. However, this decision was scrapped for unknown reason.
- Ultraman Leo is the first Ultra to be shown with a biological brother, Astra, and the second Ultra overall to have this relation to another Ultra, after Taro and his adoptive brother Ace.
