Superhero Style

Ultraman’s greatest weakness is their need for solar energy. The Earth’s atmosphere weakens the Ultraman the longer they stay because it naturally filters out the majority of sunlight. As a result, Ultraman can only be active for approximately three minutes, which isn’t a problem in space as long as there is adequate solar energy. This restriction is known by fans as the ‘Three Minute Rule’.

The Color Timer play an important role to alert them to when they should end the battle, as well as to signify when they are injured. When creating the Ultraman story, the author related it to ‘3’ because it is a number that is familiar to the Japanese people, and was culturally an important number in their everyday life. The filmmakers also wanted to make sure Ultraman’s fighting time is about 1/10 of each 30 minutes, which was about three minutes. So, if you’re planning to tune in to the Netflix reboot, you’re probably going to want this fantastic timepiece on your wrist when you do.
