Personality

to be added

Zone Fighter


  • Height: 62 meters
  • Weight: 55,000 tons[1]
  • Maximum running speed: 800 km

A figure of Zone Fighter (life-size) transformed (directly from the anti-personnel light depending on the time) upon uttering the command "Zone Double Fight!!" (ゾーン・ダブルファイト!!, Zōn Daburu Faito!!). The appearance changes only in the face (with a streamlined metallic head) and belt, and other parts are the same as in life-size.

In addition to being able to fly 40 times longer than the body length, it has a visual acuity that can be seen up to 300 km away and twice the visual acuity of ordinary people. Its main energy source is Proton Energy (プロトンエネルギー, Puroton Enerugī) derived from sunlight, and the remaining amount of energy is displayed on the Zone Meter (ゾーンメーター, Zōn Mētā) that appears on the buckle.

Normally, the Zone Meter is blue, but it changes from "blue → yellow → red" depending on the remaining amount of energy, and when it blinks red, the remaining action time becomes 110 seconds (in some cases, it suddenly changed from blue to red). However, the Fighter's energy can be replenished at any time from the Zone Marker (ゾーンマーカー, Zōn Mākā)[2][note 1] on the corner decoration of the head, and can be replenished directly with the rays emitted by the Angel (エンジェル, Enjeru) and Junior (ジュニア, Junia) from the Zone Marker, or using a smokey zone. Energy was restored by "Zone Marker Change" (ゾーンマーカーチェンジ, Zōn Mākā Chenji) which exchanges the Marker itself. In addition, even if the Marker is blue, it will be forcibly returned to life when it receives enormous damage.

It has the ability to fly in outer space, and used various weapons and techniques to fight Terro-Beasts. The King Ghidorah has been repelled alone.



Arsenal

  • Meteor Missile Might: Zone Fighter shoots a barrage of rockets from his bracelets. Used to destroy monsters.
  • Proton Beam: Zone Fighter fires a energy beam from the tip of his Antenna on his head which destroys monsters.

Notes

  • The light on Zone Fighter's belt buckle indicates how much energy he has left, starting at blue then turning to yellow and finally to red when he's almost out of energy. He can however recharge and continue fighting if his siblings give him an extra energy capsule. This light is similar to the famous Color Timer from Ultraman.
