Ultraman Reiga is an Ultra Warrior born from the fusion of the first eleven New Generation Heroes. He debuted in Ultraman Taiga The Movie: New Generation Climax.

Conception

Design

Reiga's base design was modified from a scrapped design for Taiga. His horns were then changed and lengthened and the Taiga Spark, which he initially did not have, was put on his arm. The red and blue parts on his face are derived from the New Generation Eye, and a rivet-like design was added to his gloves and boots.

History

Ultraman Taiga The Movie: New Generation Climax

Ultraman Reiga appears

The might of Grimdo after devouring Tregear proved to be too much to handle, even for the combined powers of the New Generation Heroes in their final forms. As Taro shields the group from one of its attacks, he orders them to concentrate their energy on Taiga's Ultra Horns. Doing so grants Hiroyuki use of the New Generation Eye, which he uses to transform into Ultraman Reiga. Reiga withstands all of Grimdo's assaults with ease and defeats it with the Reiga Ultimate Blaster, destroying Grimdo and Tregear in the process. The New Generation Heroes then separate and bid farewell before they depart from Hiroyuki's Earth. ^{Ultraman Taiga The Movie: New Generation Climax}

Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad

The New Generation Heroes were once again on the ropes, this time by the hands of Gua Spectre, who, like Grimdo before, overpowered each of their individual final forms. As a way to turn the tables, the squad transferred their powers to Taiga to yet again become Reiga. Whilst Ultraman Z was busy with Gua's minions, Reiga took on Gua itself. After a brief battle, the power of Reiga proved too much for the undead emperor, being finished off with the Reiga Ultimate Blaster. Following the victory, the Super Ultra defused back into his component parts. ^{Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad}

Trivia

• Despite clearly being based on Ultraman Taiga, even having the same face, Color Timer, and voice actor, Reiga is considered a separate entity with a different name instead of being a power up form.
• Having eleven component Ultras, Reiga sets a new record for the greatest number of Ultras in a fusion.
• Reiga's transformation, which involves the New Generation Heroes channeling their energy into Taiga's horns, mirrors Taro's transformation into Super Ultraman Taro, where the Ultra Brothers perform the same process.
• Reiga's rise scene was recorded while the suit actor laid down facing upwards against a green screen background, with the footage turned upside down during editing.
• Reiga is stated by Televi-Kun magazine to be "the strongest Ultraman in history".
• Ultraman Reiga, who debuted in the Reiwa era, has the officially translated Chinese name of 令迦奥特曼 , a portmanteau of the characters 令 and 迦 from Ultraman Taiga . It is interesting to note that this is not phonetically correct.
