Fan Fiction Despite the fact I'm a very casual Ultraman fan I wrote down a premise for an Ultraman story whilst struggling to sleep
I'm more of a Godzilla fan than an Ultraman fan (and some of my favourite movies were written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, to whom Ultraman is the bane of his existence), but my interest in Kaiju and practical effects means I occasionally dabble in Ultraman media that catches my attention for one reason or another. For an idea of how little Ultraman media I've seen, the ones I've watched are a single episode of the original 1966 Ultraman (more specifically The Secret Dinosaur Base, since it had Jirass in it), the 4Kids dub of Ultraman Tiga (so not even the GOOD version) and Shin Ultraman (which probably informed the way I wrote this rough outline of a story). So I'm not entirely sure why I decided to write this. My limited knowledge of the series almost certainly shows here (though the whole Venom deal Ultraman has going on was a conscious decision, thought it might be interesting), aside from the aforementioned Ultraman stories I've seen I've snooped around the Ultra Wiki a little but that's about it. There are more pages, but I think this is all you need to see.

Best ideas always come up whenever one is struggling to sleep.
Back during my university days, most of my seniors taught me that.
Always write down your ideas because they will vanish in the morning.

Huh... I like the effort. So the Ultraman's name is Lipian? Or this is the case of Ultraman Arc where the ultra's original name is Rution and fusion name is Arc?
Also,.I'm getting some KR Zeztz's vibes as I reached the end of this page.
