History

Ultraman Ace

Yapool, an ancient creature from another dimension with similarities to Satan and Legion, was an extremely skilled being of many consciousnesses with a knack for creating biological creations known as Terrible-Monsters. Yapool set his sights for Earth, but the original Five Ultra Brothers sent with their youngest member, Ultraman Ace and Earth's attack team at that time, TAC would came to stop him. Yapool would send many monsters to defeat Ultraman Ace, even seeking alien allies but all failed.

Vakishim

Main article: Vakishim

For once, Yapool decided to take the matters on his own by turning himself into Vakishim (バキシム Bakishimu) to attack Earth, first by attacking Minami (the female co-host of Ultraman Ace). While she managed to survive, Vakishim managed to possess (or possibly impersonate) a small boy and used him as a puppet to hide from TAC. As the boy, he set his parents' and his home village on fire in a brutal display. Once TAC found out about the truth, Vakishim escaped from the boy's body and transformed into his true form and fled through his dimensional portal. Vakishim reappeared out from a different portal near TAC's HQ and proceeded to attack, with nothing that TAC's fighter jets could do. Finally, Ultraman Ace arrived to do battle and after a long brutal fight, Ultraman Ace destroyed Vakishim's horn with the Star Beam Cutter and kills Vakishim with the Palm Cutter followed by the Ace Slash. Despite Vakishim's defeat, but Yapool managed to survive in his own. ^{Burn! Terrible-Monster Hell}

Strange Old Man and Giant Yapool

In episode 23, Yapool took action on his own again, plotting a global scale plan with his two new alias, Strange Old Man (怪老人 Kai Rōjin) and Giant Yapool (巨大ヤプール Kyodai Yapūru).

One day, Yapool for the first time schemed an invasion on their own hands without using Terrible-Monsters. They started off by sending an agent of them in disguise as an old man, manipulating children from around the globe by singing a hypnotic music and said the world will end. While Hokuto was patrolling, he saw them but it took Yapool's teleporting ability to catch his attention and rushed to the beach where his kidnapping plot took place. Once arrived, the Strange Old Man transformed his head into that of a gorilla and summoned a snowstorm before he attacked Hokuto with his Fire Breath. Hokuto shot him but that made him fell from a cliff. Fortunately, he survived but heavily injured.

"Curses, remember this! Though Yapool may die Terrible-Monsters live on! They will surely avenge me!"

―Giant Yapool after his defeat.

Knowing how far Yapool had gone through TAC decided to attack Yapool in his own domain. Using a special dimensional traveling device TAC sent Hokuto first because he volunteered. However, as the traveling started Yapool began to disrupt it and nearly teleported him into another dimension, but Zoffy arrived and managed to allow him and Minami to become Ultraman Ace. Once Ace was in his dimension Yapool combined themselves and used their anger over Ace and TAC to turn into a single entity, Giant Yapool. The battle between the two giants commenced as Giant Yapool and Ace exchanged beams until he was incapable of going on much further. With Giant Yapool beaten, Ace decided to leave his dimension. The Strange Old Man fainted after his comrades' defeat affect him as well and returning the kidnapped children once and for all.

Although Yapool was not killed he would be incapacitated long enough for other aliens to attack Earth while he recovered. However, even with his giant body's destruction, Yapool's cells dispersed around the Earth and therefore lead to multiple Terrible-Monster attacks in spite of his absence. ^{Reversal! Zoffy Now Arrives}

Yapool Woman

"If you think you won this fight then you're mistaken, Seiji Hokuto! [...] That's right! You won. Victors live on and losers go to hell. But this isn't the only thing you will remember. Victors must live on bearing the malice of those who have fallen. That is the principle of the fight."

―Yapool Woman

Yapool later schemed his vengeance on Hokuto, who was now the sole host of Ace since Minami had left after countless failure of his plans. He disguised himself as a female dentist and tried to make Hokuto to cause him to go insane by placing a hallucination chip on his teeth while he was given a dental care, causing Verokron II to appear only in front of his eyes everywhere. After Hokuto saw several delusions of Verokron II not seen by anyone else and had taken action himself, he was fired from TAC for his unwarranted assault on what they did not see.

Without Hokuto in TAC anymore Yapool felt satisfied and unleashed the real Verokron II to attack the city. The real Verokron II was eliminated by Ace afterwards as Woman Yapool's tricks were later foiled and was killed by Hokuto himself when he fired his gun at the fiend, as he fainted and was reduced to bubbles. But as he was about to report the dental clinic, the entire premise disappeared alongside Yapool's cadaver. ^{The Revenge of Verokron}

Alien Simon

Though it seemed as if Yapool had once again died when Hokuto shot his Yapool Woman form, in reality he had survived, and had merely escaped to continue his plans to dominate Earth. Initiating his grandest plan yet, Yapool took on the form of a juvenile Alien Simon - a race of aliens he had apparently fought and defeated in the past - as a disguise. With his disguise in place, he first pretended to be targeted by Yapool in order to get closer to TAC. He later escorted some kids away to safety when Jumbo King, the strongest of his creations thus far, attacked the city.

Yapool's disguise was convincing, as he even went as far to only speak in the language of the Simons, but later Yapool told Hokuto via specialized telepathy that he was the mastermind in disguise, and his true plan was to get his revenge on TAC, Hokuto & Ace, and depriving the children of their kindness. Once again, Yapool was killed (seemingly for the last time) by Hokuto before transforming into Ace and fighting Jumbo King. Jumbo King was defeated and Yapool's reign on Earth seemingly ended. ^{Tomorrow's Ace Is You!}

Ultraman Taro

Yapool reappeared in Ultraman Taro surviving his battle against Ultraman Ace, as Remodeled Giant Yapool (改造巨大ヤプール Kaizo Kyodai Yapūru). He was responsible for the first monster of the series, Oil Drinker, that appeared in episode 1, though Yapool himself did not appear. Remodeled Yapool made his first appearance in episodes 29 and 30, with his trio of "Remodeled" chouju.

Yapool hid himself in exile and created a space ship that not only allowed him to enter Earth's dimension, but also travel through space. After the death of Oil Drinker, he revived Bemstar, as Remodeled Bemstar. ZAT was alerted of the situation and tested a new type of giant buzz-saw on Reconstructed Bemstar trying to imitate Jack's Ultra Bracelet, but Yapool's modifications proved that it was not enough to defeat Re-Bemstar. Kotaro Higashi transformed int to Ultraman Taro appeared to battle Re-Bemstar but was defeated. When Re-Bemstar was being repetitively stabbed in the eyes by a young man Hachiro Umino, Yapool sent Remodeled Sabotendar to kill the young man. Ultraman Taro then returned to both of the chouju. Furious that Taro was still alive, Yapool "remodeled" Verokron II to take care of the situation only for all his chouju to be defeated. Yapool tried to retreat from Earth's atmosphere, but Taro used his Strium Beam on Yapool's ship, defeating him once again. ^{Bemstar Resurrected! Taro Absolutely Sacrificed!} ^{Counterattack! Monster Army}

Ultraman Mebius & the Ultra Brothers

In the year 1986, the ever plotting Yapool sent a new Terrible-Monster of his, called the U-Killersaurus, to dispose of Ultraman, Ultraseven, Jack, and Ace. The battle began on the moon, with the four Ultras dodging everything U-Killersaurus threw at them. Grappling with the beast proved futile, as its strength was enough to hold off two Ultras at once. Yapool laughed at their efforts. He claimed that U-Killersaurus was created from the hate of the Yapool. When the four Bros. tried to use their beams on the Terrible-Monster, it flew towards Earth. The heroes tried to stop U-Killersaurus, only to be met by a barrage of his organic missiles. Avoiding those, the Bros. prepared to launch their beams again, when Ultraman halted them; firing their beams so close to the Earth could harm the citizens. After grappling with U-Killersaurus' extendable claws, it was then that the four of them did the only thing they could do without harming Earth: imprison U-Killersaurus in a dimensional prison with its creator, Yapool. After crippling U-Killersaurus by blasting off his limbs, Jack and Ace combined their Spacium and Metalium Beams to send U-Killersaurus plummeting into the Earth. The Bros. arrived at the scene, and, using the Final Cross Shield, the four Bros. sealed U-Killersaurus and Yapool into the bay they had landed in.

"Commrade? Don't make me laugh. He was nothing but sacrificial pawn."

―Yapool as he reveal his betrayal against Alien Nackle.

For twenty years both Yapool and U-Killersaurus would remain sealed, until he duped a group of aliens, Temperor, Zarab, Guts, and Nackle into free them. After finally being revived by Alien Nackle and Alien Guts, U-Killersaurus was even more powerful than before. Yapool was revived as well, and casually killed his supposed ally, Nackle (Guts was destroyed by Mebius). As far as he was concerned, Nackle was just a pawn. U-Killersaurus then proceeded to mercilessly beat the Ultra Bros. with his new strength. Even when Ultraman Taro and Zoffy arrived to assist the brothers, they still could not stop this juggernaut of a monster. U-Killersaurus Neo soon caught Mebius with his large pinchers, and prepared his ultimate attack in order to kill him. However, the remaining Ultra Bros. combined their power with Mebius, and the result was Ultraman Mebius Infinity. U-Killersaurus Neo was helpless against him, as he easily smashed into his body and came out the other side, causing U-Killersaurus Neo to decay into dust, along with Yapool, ending his terror until Alien Empera revived him months later. ^{Ultraman Mebius & the Ultra Brothers}

Ultraman Mebius

Yapool then reappeared in Ultraman Mebius episode 24 and became a recurring antagonist in the show.

Having escaped death, Yapool sought his revenge on Mebius by kidnapping Ryu Aihara and possess him in a plot to frame Mirai. His plan almost worked (sabotaged a GUYS aircraft) until Sakomizu appeared and foil his plot. Under Ryu's assurance, Mirai fired his GUYS Memory Display, forcing Yapool to exit and took over Vakishim before retreated. ^{The Resurrection of Yapool} When Asami Fujisawa presented GUYS with a Meteor capable of sealing the dimensional portal, Yapool possessed her in hopes of disposing the device but realised too late that it was all a ploy to lure his Super Beast Doragory. ^{The Poisonous Moth's Program} Yapool's dimension was sealed with Dimensional Dissolver in hopes of preventing him to attack Earth. ^{Flying to Tomorrow}

Emperor's Servitude

Several months later, he appeared to have unseal the portal and utilized Gadiba in possessing Red King within Tatar Island. Although fought by Mebius, Gadiba soon expelled under Yapool's orders, leaving Gomora (who borrowed the appearance of Red King) to deal with the Ultra. ^{An Old Friend's Visit} He would soon join the ranks of Dark Four Heavenly Kings, confidently being the first to left and attack Mebius in hopes of giving the Earth to Alien Empera. His first mission is by luring GUYS to outer space with a crystal missile and for Lunaticks to deal them while personally sending his revived Ace Killer to fight Mebius. In the middle of the battle, he assimilated Gadiba with Ace Killer into Mebius Killer, overpowering Mebius until he comes up with a new tactic; Mebium Dynamite. Once Mebius revert to Mirai, he kidnapped the Ultra and two other humans, Aya and Hirukawa. ^{Threatening Mebius-Killer}

Giant Yapool, as seen in *Ultraman Mebius*.

He brought his targets to a dimension which appeared to be Tokyo in ruins. Seeing Hirukawa's irrational desperation to survive, he coerced the man to shoot both Aya and Mirai, ultimately exposing the latter as an Ultra in disguise. When Mirai refused to admit the ugly truth of humanity, Yapool engages in a battle against the Ultra and successfully weaken him. He shift his attention to Aya and blasted the area in front of her, nearly killing her. Encouraged by Seiji, Mebius' power and spirit were restored, and much to Yapool's surprise, he stood up once more, and assumed his Burning Brave Mode. This time, the tide of the battle turned, as Mebius went on an all-out attack on Yapool before dealing the finishing blow. His last words were that of informing Mebius that more foes, even stronger, would come, such as Deathrem, and Grozam. ^{Ace's Wish}

Ultraman Mebius Gaiden: Ghost Rebirth

Yapool was revived and possessing his creation, Mebius Killer. Yapool, along with Deathrem, Grozam, and Armored Mefilas (G) assault the Ultra Brothers in an attempt to reunite the Giga Battle Nizer and Mechazam in an attempt to resurrect Alien Empera. However, their plan was foiled when Ultraman Mebius looses the Giga Battle Nizer and Mechazam sacrifices his life to keep the Emperor from being revived. After a battle with Ultraman Ace, he was finally destroyed by a single shot of his Metalium Beam. ^{Ultraman Mebius Gaiden: Ghost Rebirth}

Ultraman Ginga

Yapool appeared in Ultraman Ginga as a Spark Doll. In episode 7, he along with many monsters are seen cheering on Ultraman Ginga as he fights Dark Galberos. It is likely that Yapool departed back to his dimension after the defeat of Dark Lugiel.

Ultraman Ginga S

Yapool return with Vakishim on Ultraman Ginga S episode 5, this time inside his Giant Yapool body for most of his appearance.

Yapool appears when Vakishim was fighting Ginga. Angry at Android One Zero for using Vakishim's Spark Doll without permission, he took control of the Terrible-Monster away from the android and cast her out of the Lived Doll. He then sent the Terrible-Monster back to his home dimension and told One Zero and Exceller that he will deal with Ginga, knowing about the Chibull's plan to steal the Victorium, and then he vanished, planning on something diabolical with the humans. This event revealed that Yapool was in Vakishim when the monster had turned into a Spark Doll, thus resulting him slumbering inside the Terrible-Monster.

Soon he possessed Gouki Matsumoto and went on a small rampage and even trapped Hikaru Raido in a Dimensional Rift. When Gouki struggled with Yapool for control after seeing a pregant woman needing help and taking her to a nearby hospital, the Terrible-Monster maker transformed into his giant form with Gouki still possessed and was about to strike Arisa Sugita and her UPG vehicle but Gouki fought back until Ginga kicked Yapool, freeing Gouki from his possession. He then ordered Vakishim to retreat back into their dimension but Ultraman Victory followed suit and brought it back. He then fought with Ginga himself who transformed into Strium form and Victory "UITrans" his right hand into the Gudon Whip. After Vakishim's defeat, he tried to return to his dimension, but Victory stopped him and he was then defeated by Ginga using the Metalium Beam. ^{Friend & Demon}

Ultra Fight Victory

"Evil dimensional people never die, and the bitter animosity towards the Ultra Warriors allowed me to return with deeper darkness than ever."

―Yapool explaining to Sakuya how he survived his last fight with Ginga and Victory.

"(Laugh) Don't think you're win yet. Now, nobody can stop the revival of the Emperor. Soon, the whole universe will end now!"

―Yapool's last words.

Yapool returned in Ultra Fight Victory as the one responsible for sending the Terrible-Monster. He somehow survived his destruction during his previous defeat at the hands of Ultraman Ginga.

He was first seen studying Ultraman Victory's Ultlance ability, while he was fighting Aribunta. Yapool appeared to Sakuya and confiscated her Victorium Necklace, while stating his plan to go to the Victorium Core. Afterwards, he went down to the Victorium core and used Sakuya's necklace to gather energy from the core itself. Yapool then revealed himself after Victory defeated Aribunta and stated he already had enough power to revive Juda. He then sent Doragory, Verokron, and Vakishim to fight Leo and Astra and protect the distortion that housed the reviving Space Emperor and ordered Ace Killer to stop Ace from saving Ultraman Ginga.

When Victory arrived, Yapool explained that he was able to copy the Ultra's UITrans, and had given it to Ace Killer, declaring him, Victory Killer and later summoned Lunaticks to kill Ginga. After both Terrible-Monster have been killed by Victory and Shepherdon, and Ginga and Ace have been restored, Yapool went to Planet Gua and used the Victorium he stole from the core to kickstart the revival of Juda. He reveled in his glory until Ginga, Victory, and Ace showed up and fired the Victorium Shoot, Ginga Cross Shoot, and Punch Laser respectively at the Terrible-Monster. Yapool then grew in size and joined the Terrible-Monster in fighting the Ultras and was winning over the new Ultras thanks to his bitter animosity towards the Ultra Brothers empowering him until the old Ultras suggested that they merge to form Ultraman Ginga Victory and they did. The fight quickly swung into Ginga Victory's favor, and Yapool was defeated with the Ultra Fusion Shoot. In his last act, Yapool gives in his own energy to revive Juda. ^{Ultra Fight Victory}

Ultraman X

Continuing from Ultra Fight Victory, it was revealed that Yapool not only revived Juda, but also Mold and Gina as well without notice. ^{Sword of Victory}

Ultraman Z

"Yapool, you once said that victors must live on bearing the malice of those who have fallen. Even so, I... we Ultras will fight on! Until the day this universe is at peace!"

―Ultraman Ace

As proclaimed by Baraba, Yapool's grudge had not ceased, and his Terrible-Monsters continued his mission while he was still yet to revive from his most recent death.^{The Last Hero} Though Yapool remained unseen throughout the remainder of the series, the existence of his dimension became a major plot point, as the energy held within it was utilised by the D4 and D4 Ray weapons,^D4 which Celebro sought to obtain as part of his Civilisation Self-Destruction Game with the aim of exterminating humanity.^{The Game to Extinction}^{Warriors Shining Beyond}

Yapool Man

Yapool Man (ヤプール人 Yapūru Jin) is the form Yapool took when he first appeared on screen and in his own dimension. Originally, this form was thought to be a group of alien called the Yapool. The Japanese character 人 means people or person, this is how Yapool was originally referred to as a group instead of a being. It was later revealed that the Yapool shown in Ultraman Ace is either a collective form, comprising all of his race, or just a single Yapool acting on his own desires and tactics.

In Ultraman Ace, Yapool Man's appearance was that of people in purple with yellow linings in their body. However, starting from Ultraman Mebius and so on, Yapool Man's appearances would be more identical to the Giant Yapool.

Giant Yapool appeared in this novel as one of the many antagonists.

Through a dimensional crack created by Soso via Clone Bullton, Yapool emerged on Nagoya, Japan, having fused to his Super Beast U-Killersaurus. He demanded an Ultraman for him to fight and thus Hayata (who was separated from Ultraman) appeared. Although declared as a "remnant of the original Ultraman", Yapool was quick to dismiss the former Ultra Host and held Ultraman F as a hostage. F retaliated by escaping and destroy both alien and Super Beast. ^{Ultraman F}
