History
Some time after Yapool's defeat, an alien by the name of Hipporit traveled to Earth to both conquer it and to kill Ultraman Ace and the other Ultra Brothers. Hipporit first appeared in a city, calling out to Ace to demonstrate his power to the Ultra by decapitating a giant statue of Ace before teleporting away. TAC soon found Hipporit in a desert area and attacked him. But TAC's fighters were easily downed by Hipporit's strength and Ultraman Ace soon appeared on the scene.
Ultraman Ace and Hipporit seemed to be roughly matched in strength until Hipporit trapped Ace inside a glass chamber that appeared out of nowhere, where Ace was doused in an unusual liquid and gas inside the chamber. Then to everyone's shock, after a few seconds the chamber disappeared to reveal Ace turned into a giant statue made of jade. Not yet finished with his goal, Hipporit sent out a phony distress signal to the other Ultra Brothers (Ultraman, Zoffy, Ultra Seven, and Ultraman Jack) who rushed to the scene. Shortly after discovering the jaded statue of Ace, Hipporit suddenly appeared again and trapped Ultraman and Zoffy first into the statue chambers. Seven fought Hipporit while Jack is trying to free Ultraman and Zoffy from the statue chambers, but suddenly Jack was trapped in a statue chamber shortly before he could even free his brothers trapped in the statue chamber, leaving Seven to fight Hipporit alone. Seven fought bravely, but was easily overpowered by the alien and was trapped in a statue chamber as well, turning all the Ultra Brothers into statues of jade before they could even do anything.
With the Ultra Brothers now turned into jade, TAC were the only ones left to stop Hipporit's world conquest but none of their weapons were strong enough to do any harm to the alien and were surrounded in a ring of fire created by the alien. Suddenly, a large, green energy ball fell from the sky and attacked Hipporit. It was revealed to be none other than the Father of Ultra. Proceeding first by rescuing TAC and freeing Ace from his jade coating, the Father of Ultra seemed to have Hipporit under control with his energy attacks and superior strength, until Hipporit blinded and injured the Father of Ultra with his laser attacks. Weakened, the Father of Ultra gave his color timer to Ultraman Ace, reviving his adopted son before dying himself from Hipporit's injuries. Now revived and fueled with the Father of Ultra's energy, Ace beat down Hipporit with ease. After a combination of TAC's weapons as well as his own, Hipporit was finally destroyed by Ace's Metallium Ray. Ace proceeded to revive the Ultra Brothers and the group managed to revive the Father of Ultra.
Superior Ultraman 8 Brothers
This Alien reappeared in the movie Superior Ultraman 8 Brothers as Super Alien Hipporit.
After King Pandon was destroyed by Ultraman Mebius, a glass chamber suddenly formed around Mebius and he was doused in an unusual liquid and gas inside the chamber. Then moments later, Mebius was transformed into a statue made of Bronze and it was left on the harbor where he beat King Pandon. A dark cloud then emerged from the sky forming into Super Alien Hipporit, the leader of the invasion of monsters. Super Alien Hipporit warned humanity of their destruction now with Mebius defeated and that there is no hope left for the people of Earth. The alien then vanished into thin air, but not before unleashing two more monsters upon humanity: King Silvergon and King Goldras.
Later that night as his monsters were continuing their path of destruction, Super Alien Hipporit returned to join them in the destruction, continuing his goading to the humans of their destruction. Still with hope inside of him, Daigo became Ultraman Tiga to confront the three monsters. However despite Tiga’s strength over King Silvergon and King Goldras, Super Alien Hipporit assaulted Tiga himself and the hero was overpowered by the three monsters. Then just as Hipporit tried to transform Tiga into a bronze statue. Ultraman Dyna and Ultraman Gaia appeared, saving Tiga. Now three on three, the odds were now evened and Super Alien Hipporit fought Tiga by himself. Super Alien Hipporit was no match for Ultraman Tiga and was ultimately destroyed by the Zepellion Beam.
During the film's climax, Super Alien Hipporit’s face formed the chest of the Giga Chimera.
