History[]

Return of Ultraman[]

Bemstar was a space monster who was born in the Crab Nebula until it was released into space after it's home exploded in 1054. Since its release, the space monster had a ravenous appetite for hydrogen, helium, and nitrogen, and would scour the universe for said gases to power itself. It first made its presence known by attacking a MAT space station, consuming it and its crew into its gorge before heading to Earth to further feed on what it could find. Before the Space Station crew's demise, they manage to inform MAT's HQ about Bemstar's appearance, and they immediately launched into action with their MAT Arrows to intercept the space monster. Confronting it in mid-air, MAT and Bemstar engaged in a fierce dogfight, with Bemstar's horn blaster countering MAT's weapons, until the team called a retreat after Ueno, Minami, and Kishida were injured during the battle.

Bemstar eventually made landfall one night where the space monster began feeding on a gas plant. MAT however was shortly on the scene, and they attempted to destroy the monster by blasting at nearby gas containers, which caused an enormous explosion. This however only provoked Bemstar, who shot down one of the MAT Arrows before fleeing into the night. The next day, Bemstar appeared in another gas plant to resume its feeding, where it was confronted by MAT's vengeful Captain Kato (who was furious at the monster for the death of his friend, Kaji). Kato fired at the monster with a "Schmidt Optics Missile," hoping it would destroy the monster, but the weapon had no effect on the monster, who continued its rampage. With no other option, Go transformed into Ultraman Jack to face Bemstar himself. At first, Jack and Bemstar were physically matched with one another. Suddenly when the ultra tried to finish off the monster with his Specium Ray, Bemstar absorbed his ray into its gorge, recharging the space monster and allowing it to physically manhandle Jack with ease. Physically spent from the battle, Jack had no choice but to flee, heading for the sun, hoping for a quick recharge.

With Jack temporarily out of the way, Bemstar was again left to rampage, with its only opposition being Captain Kato. the captain of MAT tried his best, but he was nothing on his own compared to the monster, who blasted him out of the sky. Luckily, Ultraman Jack returned just in time to save the captain before he could crash. Recharged by the sun's rays, and now equipped with his new "Ultra Bracelet" thanks to an intervention by Ultraseven, the ultra immediately fought with Bemstar. Like their first battle, Jack and Bemstar were still physically matched with one another. However once the ultra revealed his new weapon, Jack's Ultra Bracelet sliced off Bemstar's arms and head, ending the space monster's rampage.[1][Ultraseven Arrives!]

Sometime later, Bemstar along with Seagorath were both revived by Alien Nackle as test subjects to study Ultraman Jack's abilities in battle. Both monsters were released in Tokyo Bay, with Seagorath generating another tsunami like before. MAT was quickly alerted of the monsters presence and Go transformed into Ultraman Jack to face the pair. After stopping Seagorath's tsunami with his Ultra Barrier technique, the ultra disposed of the two monsters with ease, with Bemstar again being sliced to pieces by Jack's Ultra Bracelet.[Ultraman dies at sunset]

Ultraman Taro[]

The original Bemstar that died in battle against Ultraman Jack had been resurrected by the returning Yapool, who had used his science to modify the space monster and now had it serve him in destroying the earth. Like the first of its kind, Re-Bemstar (改造ベムスター, Kaizō Bemusutā) made its presence known by attacking ZAT's No. 1 Space Station, consuming it and its crew into its gorge until he was discovered by ZAT upon receiving a distress signal from the crew of the station. The team tried to fight off Re-Bemstar, but the space monster made a hasty retreat as soon as the team opened fire at him. Sometime later, Re-Bemstar made landfall on earth and began searching for its favorite food source of hydrogen, helium, and nitrogen, by attacking Mt. Shimotsuma's gas terminals. Determined to beat the monster before Taro could, ZAT launched into action, equipped with a giant buzzsaw that was created to be as sharp as Ultraman Jack's Ultra Bracelet. As it's members distracted the space monster during its rampage, the Sky Whale managed to strike Re-Bemstar with their buzzsaw, only to be shocked that their buzzsaw was destroyed in the process. Yapool gloated at their failure, stating that they had learned from Bemstar's previous death and had modified the space monster to be resistant to such a similar weapon. Afterwards, Re-Bemstar retreated per his master's orders.

Sometime later, Re-Bemstar appeared at the gas terminal to resume its rampage. ZAT again tried to fend off the space monster with their weapons, but their efforts proved to be fruitless. To make matters worse, Umino, a teacher from the Terakoya Temple School tried facing the monster himself to prove to his students that humans are just as capable at stopping monsters as Taro is. Knowing that he was getting himself into trouble, Kotaro had to stop Umino, but the two wound up getting into a fight, with Umino escaping to face Re-Bemstar. Umino's attempt at stopping the space monster was to jump into its mouth and feeding it sticks of dynamite, but the plan ultimately did nothing except put Umino in a dangerous situation: Literally hanging out of Re-Bemstar's mouth. With no other choice, Kotaro transformed into Ultraman Taro to save Umino by putting out of the space monster's mouth before he could be eaten. Once Umino was saved, Taro and Re-Bemstar fought one another, but in a surprising twist, Re-Bemstar's modifications allowed the space monster to easily pummel the ultra into submission.[Bemstar Revives! Taro's in a Desperate Pinch!] Finally after Re-Bemstar blasted him with its Murder Ray, Taro was consumed by a blue light before disappearing. The ultra had lost, and Re-Bemstar had won. Satisfied by their victory, Yapool again ordered his space monster to retreat.

The next day, Re-Bemstar again appeared at the gas terminal to resume its rampage. While the space monster was feeding on some gas tanks, Umino, still believing that he could handle Re-Bemstar himself, hurled a lasso around the monster's horn and climbed up to the monster's eye level. As Re-Bemstar was preoccupied by the gas tanks, Umino stabbed it in its eyelid, causing yellow blood to spurt out. At the same time, ZAT also appeared on the scene after developing an Energy Bomb (noting that Re-Bemstar's gorge was the space monster's only weak point), and they fired their newly-developed weapon into the monster's gorge while it was feeding. The combination of both attacks sent Re-Bemstar into a pain-filled frenzy, and he immediately set the site ablaze with its attacks. Yapool, fearing that Re-Bemstar would lose, sent out two Terrible-Monsters to assist it: Re-Sabotendar and Re-Verokron II. However, the monster army was confronted by Ultraman Taro, who faced Re-Sabotendar, while ZAT faced Re-Verokron II. As Re-Bemstar writhed in agony, Umino again climbed up to the monster's eye level and stabbed its other eyelid, blinding the monster in its own blood. With the space monster debilitated and vulnerable, ZAT took the opportunity to finish it off by firing a second Energy Bomb into the space monster's gorge, which obliterating Re-Bemstar.[Revenge of the Monster Army!]

Ultraman Mebius Gaiden: Hikari Saga[]

Ultraman Hikari had just left Earth to continue his training as an honorary member of the Space Garrison.[Formation of Our Vows] Suddenly en route to the Land of Light, the ultra was ambushed by a stray Bemstar, who was trailing after fragments of Ohshima's Comet. Both ultra and monster fought fiercely with each other, dragging their battle down onto a nearby asteroid. Hikari tried his best to fight back, but without the use of his Knight Brace (which he had given to Mebius), his inexperience left him at Bemstar's mercy and raw strength. During their fight however, a red orb of light overtook Hikari and the battlefield, blinding Bemstar in the process. Once the light receded and Bemstar could see again, the monster was confronted by two ultras now: Hikari and Zoffy. Bemstar was strong, but thanks to the assistance of the veteran Zoffy, Hikari had gained a second wind and he took the fight to Bemstar. Finally once the monster was weakened enough, Hikari finished it off with the Hot Road Shoot.

As Zoffy was congratulating Hikari on a job well done, the pair noticed another stray Bemstar. One that was headed for Earth. Rather than stop it though, Zoffy assured Hikari to let Ultraman Mebius take care of the monster since he was Earth's Guardian.[Test of a Hero]

Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle[]

Bemstar was one of the many monsters that lived on Planet Boris.[3] His presence was first felt when the monster had attacked a Resource Transportation Base to feed on its excess energy deposits, prior to the ZAP SPACY's arrival on Planet Boris. By the time the ZAP SPACY had arrived to salvage some spare parts, the damage had already been done. Shortly after arriving, Bemstar noticed the Pendragon and returned to feed on its energy as well. To make matters worse, Haruna (believing that Bemstar had murdered her brother, Hiroki during his first attack) had hijacked a Dragon Speeder to deal with Bemstar herself, despite being no match for Bemstar's power. Even by trying to fend off the monster with their weapons and missiles. Bemstar only absorbed of their attacks through its gorge and continues out without any trouble.

Luckily, Rei had summoned Gomora and Litra to do battle against Bemstar. The battle however was roughly at a standstill with Gomora and Bemstar's strength being on par with one another, and Haruna's and Litra's involvement proved ineffective as Bemstar once again absorbed their attacks to strengthen him in fighting back against Gomora. At that moment, Oki informed Rei that Bemstar is vulnerable for a brief moment but only after it absorbs energy through its gorge. With the knowledge in mind, Rei ordered Litra to distract Bemstar, to which Litra transformed itself into a Phoenix and discharged a huge burst of Fire from its body at Bemstar. Bemstar absorbed the attack and (unintentionally) left itself open for Gomora to stab Bemstar with his horn, charging the Monster's innards with his Super Oscillatory Ray from the inside, destroying Bemstar.[Bemstar Has Arrived!]

Never Ending Odyssey[]

Bemstar was a stray monster who attacked the ZAP SPACY's Pendragon while they were in space, looking for Rei and Captain Hyuga (whom were separated from the team).[4] However thanks to the enhancements made to their ship (courtesy of Dail and the Alien Pedan commandeering their ship), the Pendragon's new weapons managed to fend off the Bemstar will little effort. The hurt Bemstar tried to flee by hiding behind an asteroid, but Dail decided to finish the job by using the ship's new strongest weapon: the Pendaium Launcher. With one blast, Bemstar was obliterated in cold blood.[Reionics Battle]

Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legend The Movie[]

Bemstar is a revived monster and a member of Ultraman Belial's faceless entourage. Sent to slay the surviving Ultraman Mebius alongside Dorako and Saramandora under the command the Alien Shaplay, Bemstar and its comrades were confronted by Ultraseven's Capsule Monsters Agira, Miclas, and Windom. Confronting Miclas, Bemstar was met with the Capsule Monster's brute strength, and after being beaten down and slammed into a nearby iceberg, Miclas finished off Bemstar by dropkicking him through said iceberg, killing the Space Monster.[Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legend The Movie]

Ultra Zero Fight[]

Bemstar reappeared in the segment series, Ultra Zero Fight as THE Bemstar (THE・ベムスター, Za Bemusutā).

Ultraman Ginga S[]

Bemstar was one of the many spark dolls that was in the possession of Exceller and his followers.[5] Bolst the Alien Guts MonsLived into the monster, hoping that it would be useful in retrieving Victorium, but Bemstar was immediately confronted by Ultraman Victory. Despite Bemstar attempting to distract Victory by hurling buildings at him, the ultra quickly caught on to the monster's repeated tactic, and the two fought a relatively-even battle. The fight became serious however when Bolst used his duplication ability to split into two copies of himself, with one of them taking the form of Bemular as well. Luckily, Victory was given some assistance as well when Ultraman Ginga arrived to help his friend. Bolst still had a few tricks up his sleeve thanks to Exceller giving him a Chibu Circuit to boost his strength, allowing him to give Bemular his own abilities to assist Bemstar is battle the two ultras. Despite this though, Ginga and Victory managed to outmaneuver and trick Bemular into immobilizing the two monsters with Bolst's paralyzing powers, with the monsters trapped, Victory summoned his EX Red King Knuckle and defeated Bemstar by sending the monster flying off into the horizon with a single punch.[Life to Regain]

Ultraman X[]

Bemstar was a Spark Doll that had belonged to an Alien Zarab that had come to Earth to destroy it after having already destroyed several other Planets along the way.[6] They first appeared in Area S-4, where they attacked a Pharmaceutical Factory in order for Bemstar to feed. Fortunately, Xio arrived on the scene and attacked Bemstar while trying to look for Zarab. After Bemstar absorbed Xio's attacks, the monster attacked Daichi with his Horn Blaster, causing Asuna to lose her temper and attack Bemstar erratically. Luckily, Daichi survived the attack and transformed into Ultraman X to battle Bemstar instead. During the Ultra and Monster's battle however, Bemstar's gorge opened up and Ultraman X was shocking absorbed by Bemstar while the Monster was eating! With the Ultra out of the way, and the contents of the Factory eaten, Bemstar then fled to the Moon and fell asleep while Ultraman X was left to slowly being digested inside of the Alien Monster.

After Alien Zarab was was destroyed by Xio, two of its members: Hayato and Wataru went into Space to rescue Ultraman X from Bemstar, after Rui and Mamoru modifyed Xio's vehicles to allow them Space Travel. Rui and Mamoru also revealed to them that by studying Telesdon's Spark Doll, the Musketty now has a Lava Blast feature, allowing it to protect Hayato and Wataru from being eaten by Bemstar's Gorge as well. Using the new feature, Hayato and Wataru blasted Bemstar's Gorge, destroying it and freeing Ultraman X from being digested! Now freed from Bemstar, Ultraman X resumeed his fight with the Alien Monster. Ultraman X has no trouble picking up where he left off beating up the monster, and after striking him with his Attacker X ability, Ultraman X destroyed Bemstar with the Xanadium Beam, reducing him back into Spark Doll form.[All For One]

The monsters proceeded to attack Ayaka City when they were confronted by the trio of Ultraman Rosso, Ultraman Blu, and Geed himself. As the ultras fought the monsters, Bemstar and Gan-Q used their absorbtion and redirection abilities to keep the ultras at bay, but Rosso struggled for most of the battle when Bemstar wedged him into a nearby building. Despite this, Geed and Blu managed to work together relatively well for most of the battle. Finally after learning of Pega's imprisonment, Rosso switched to his aqua form and Blu switched to his wind form, and the ultraman brothers freed the alien with their Hybrid Shoot attack.
