The Z Riser is a transformation device and weapon that appears in Ultraman Z. Despite its name, its also known as the Ultra Z Riser , due to Ultraman Z's tendency to add the "Ultra" prefix.

So far, only four known models existed, with its prominent users being Ultraman Z (shared with Haruki Natsukawa) and the Celebro-possessed Shinya Kaburagi, while Riku Asakura used it as an alternative to transform into Ultraman Geed in place of his Geed Riser. It can also be wielded as a weapon by the Ultras who transform using the device.

Jugglus Juggler created a dark copy of the device, called the Dark Z Riser , used in place of his Dark Ring.

History

Utraman Z

The Z Riser was originally developed in the Land of Light to help Ultra Warriors deal with berserk monsters throughout space, due to the emergence of the Devil Splinters. Ultraman Hikari, who was developing this device, required a "neutral" test subject and thus Ultraman Zero referred Z to him, who eventually got the device named after him.

Zero gave Z his Z Riser and three Ultra Medals prior to being sucked by Bullton. On Earth, the device is shared with his human host, Haruki, after merging with the recently deceased officer.

Meanwhile, the space parasite Cerebro managed to steal one of the Z Risers from the Land of Light by possessing the space monster Genegarg. Through his human possession, Shinya, he used it in conjunction with the Kaiju Medals he crafted.

"Darkness twinkling before the stars, grant me your dark power. From light to darkness, from darkness to light!"

―Juggler's Dark Z Riser ritual.

While remaining hidden on Earth as Shota Hebikura, Jugglus Juggler took the opportunity to briefly steal Haruki's Z Riser during Peguila's rampage, where he summoned the Kaiju Medals of Zetton, Pandon and Maga-Orochi to clone said device into his own Dark Z Riser. When the Riser used by Riku Asakura was overloaded in a battle against a revived Gillvalis, Pega provided him with a Z Riser from Ultraman Hikari as a replacement.

Transformation

The user inserts their Ultra Access Card into the midsection as the Z Riser reads and grants access to its user. They then insert three Ultra Medals or Kaiju Medals into the blade and scan them through the reader. Transforming without the use of Medals will transform the user into their "default" form.

After transforming, the Z Riser can be used as a weapon by switching to attack mode, and the three medals can be activated to perform special signature attacks.

Unfortunately, the Z Risers used by Ultras will not activate unless they try as hard as they can and their spirit is properly motivated.

Trivia

• One of the names that Z considered naming the device was Z Spark .^{Ultra Z Riser}
• In the toy release:
  • Like the Orb Ring and Geed Riser, the Z Riser has sounds for past forms/fusions, including:
    • Fusion forms and Ultras that constitute three or less components.
    • X's Cyber Armors, by inserting an Ultra Access Card and scanning the X Medal with another Medal that granted X an armament as Cyber Cards (e.g. the Ultimate Zero Medal).
    • Orb's Fusion Up forms (including game-exclusive forms), by inserting an Ultra Access Card and scanning the Orb Medal with two other Medals that make up the components. For Orb Lightning Attacker, an Ultra Access Card other than Riku's must be used, as Geed Galaxy Rising uses the same components.
    • Geed's Fusion Rise forms (including game-exclusive forms), by inserting Riku's Access Card and scanning two Medals that make up the components.
    • Rosso's/Blu's Type Changes, by inserting an Ultra Access Card and scanning the Rosso/Blu Medal with one of four Medals that represented the four elements as R/B Crystals.
  • When three Ultraman Zero Medals are scanned with Haruki's Ultra Access Card, a Zero Special Combo can be initiated.
  • If Galactron MK2, Gilvalis, and Horoboros Medals are scanned, it will announced a currently unseen fusion kaiju named, Metsuboros.
• The Dark Z Riser has a deeper voice and standby jingle, fitting its existence as a dark counterpart to the original item.
