Hm I got a lot I love.
Ultraman: Gomora for being a tough 'normal' dinosaur. Red King for being the jerk-jock you hate (most of the time.) Mefilas since he was like 'screw this I'm leaving rather than trying to kill you!'

Ultraseven: Eleking and really maybe my favorite Ultra kaiju. Pandon because WTF at the two head one neck thing. Giladorus because it's some kind of weird mouse-bull thing with weather control and that's a neat power. Gandar, another weird one plus Miclas got a cool fight. Dino-tank for the great gimmick.

Return: Earthtron, a really really simple design (or at least modern design) that I just love. Twin-Tails for the unforgettable design. Varricane: jelly-fish monster with storm powers. Oxter, this episode was kinda horror-esque and you don't see too many ox kaiju. Muruchi: very sleek design and again great episode. Priz-Ma when you want Builton but with horror and light. Femigon, don't know why but I guess I just like the strange design and the ghost-like power.

Ace: Haven't finished it but I like Garan and he might come from favorite episode. Brocken for being so creepy and weird. Coakes/Cokes was good just because I liked the episode, the creepy child and after a long string of monsters that spat fire we got disorienting powers.

*the fish-dinosaur kaiju that liked chocolate and if you shot at it, it'd get violent.
Well, I found out the name of the fourth monster - it's the Suflan.

My next question is: did it appear in two Ultraman episodes? I seem to remember that it did.

I've only seen most of the original series so far. Alien Baltan, Gomora, and Red King are clear standouts, so it's no surprise that they're so popular. I actually really liked Gango, too; his ridiculous, cowardly personality is very unique, and so is his design.

^Honestly, Gango is the best modified suit in the entire series. I wouldn't have even noticed that it was a reused Bemular if I wasn't told.

Oh wow never realized that was the same body suit and face. Never been a fan of Bemular, I know he's the first but honestly I keep forgetting he's an alien and I think he's supposed to be a sapient alien too right? Like he piloted his way to Earth? He didn't take on an energy ball mode and panic-flew away right? I just feel like that's a bit of a weakness if I keep forgetting he's not a sapient alien or even an alien but keep thinking he's an Earth kaiju. If I was tasked with re-making the original Ultraman I'd probably have Ultraman chasing a Baltan...and maybe if I feared outcry he'd have Bemular as a pet monster/bodyguard.

That said I really liked Powered Bemular from Orb. Love those horns!
Wouldn't mind seeing Gango show up either as an actual threat or maybe a silly whimsical prankster a la Mr. Mxypliz from Superman. Or maybe a small prankster monster that goes on adventures with Pigmon!

Can someone please tell me how to say this? Mix-ee-pliss? Mm-zee-pliss? Mex-ee-pleez? I can't do it.

Also, I think giving him some characteristics of The One would work. After all, the latter character was based on Bemular.

I didn't spell it right but you knew who. 'Mr. Mxyzptlk.'
I think it's MIX-al-PLX.

According to DC (and this is what I remember), it's Mix-yez-pitel-ik. Backwards, it's Kel-tipz-yex-em.

In the Super Friends cartoon series, it's Mix-el-plik and Klip-el-skim.

If the spelling's wrong on both sets, forgive me; it's the best I could do.

It's fine. It's like they went 'what's the most annoying name to have to memorize?'

There was an episode of Superman: The Animated Series that had people continually mispronouncing the name, or something along those lines. He kept trying to get the correct pronunciation through their heads: "Mix-yiz-spit-lik". Take that with a grain of salt, though; been a lot of years since I saw that episode.

Also, I completely missed that Gango was a modified Bemular. That's so cool. They did a good job with it.

Since when is it "Gango"? That's not a very good transliteration.
寺沢. He/him/his, etc.

I guess it's because of his name originating from the word "gang". I'm still not sure on how I'll pronounce it.

OK, that makes a lot of sense, and something I overlooked. Carry on.

Runner ups would be the kaiju that gets its fly wings ripped off of during the huge brawl, the starfish Bat that eats oil, one-headed Keizer Ghidorah, and the bird kaiju that protects the bridge where that child died, all from the original series
I know this is an old post but those are Chandora, Pestar, Dodongo, and Hydra.
