In the final episodes, Hiroyuki's double life as a Tri-Squad member was revealed to have been known by Kana and Homare, both of them chastise him for his poor attempt in keeping secret.

In Ultraman Taiga The Movie, Hiroyuki becomes the target of the Villain Guild, which led to the members of New Generation Heroes appearing one after another to protect him.^[6][7][8] Hiroyuki became reckless in the fight, which resulted in Taiga's concern for the youth.^[9]

He provided refuge to an outcast Volk and joined the Villain Guild at a very young age but quit it after finding a new resolve in his life, which led to his membership in E.G.I.S..

After her boss Kana was rescued from Gorothunder, Kirisaki attempts to harass her in order to spite Hiroyuki but switched plans by summoning Woola after probing through Pirika's mind. Fully aware of her mission, Pirika used the Villain Guild's brainwave controlling device (脳波コントロール装置, Nōha Kontorōru Sōchi) to digitize herself, only to discover the planet eater was only troubled by its own existence.^[12] Because of this, she instructed E.G.I.S. in an operation to satiate its hunger. Although seemingly killed in Woola's explosion, Taiga managed to salvage at least her memories and inspector Sakura contacted former residents of Planet Eomapp to provide a spare body for her, allowing Pirika to be restored and reunited with E.G.I.S..

In Ultraman Taiga The Movie, Pirika was infected by a virus during her undercover in the alien hideout. She was saved by Daichi Ozora, who lost his ability to unite with X.^[9]

After Zolin's arrest and Woola's arrival, Magma and Merkind attempted to leave Earth but changed their mind after being inspired by Pirika's bravery, offering their assistance to E.G.I.S. in an operation to neutralize Woola.^[12] Magma rode his Magma Saucer (マグマ円盤, Maguma Enban) alongside Homare to launch a white hole missile, therefore allowing Taiga to free the monster from its own existence.^[12] As a result of their cooperation, both aliens were given membership in E.G.I.S. by Kana.

Ultra Warriors

Tri-Squad

The Tri-Squad (トライスクワッド, Torai Sukuwaddo) is a trio of Ultramen with different origins who join forces to preserve peace in space. Initially thought to have killed by Tregear, their scattered lights wandered in outer space as they reunite on Earth bonding with the same host, Hiroyuki.^[2]

Hiroyuki transforms into either one of them through the Taiga Spark (タイガスパーク, Taiga Supāku), an item which was developed by Ultraman Taro and Tregear and was originally his Taro-let (タロウレット, Tarō-retto).^[3][4][5][2] The item functions by scanning Ultra Taiga Accessory (ウルトラタイガアクセサリー, Urutora Taiga Akusesarī), each with different results:^[14][2]

• Key Holder Type (キーホルダータイプ, Kī Horudā Taipu): Represents the Tri-Squad's transformations.^[2]
• Bracelet Type (ブレスレットタイプ, Buresuretto Taipu): Powers of past Ultra Warriors, specifically the New Generation Heroes. It functions by empowering the Tri-Squad's finishing techniques.
• Ring Type (指輪タイプ, Yubiwa Taipu): Also called as Monster Rings (怪獣リング, Kaijū Ringu), it was created from remains of defeated monsters.^[15] Its mainly used by Taiga to tap into the monster's own power, but was carefully planned by Tregear as a way of influencing him through slow corruption.^[15]

Ultraman Taiga

Ultraman Taiga (ウルトラマンタイガ, Urutoraman Taiga) is the eponymous Ultraman who is the son of Ultraman Taro and is also known as the "Hero of Light" (光の勇者, Hikari no Yūsha).^[2] Although the founder and leader of Tri-Squad, he yearns for his father's respect and grows to become a proper hero despite his youthful age, 4,800 years old.^[10][b]

In his younger days, Taiga found solace in the blue Ultra named Filis and trains harder after being overshadowed by his father's popularity. During his journey in outer space, he join forces with Andro Ares in Planet Maiji to fight against Imbeeza's platoon of Gua Army. He would soon meet Titas and Fuma within their respective homeworlds, which resulted in the formation of Tri-Squad. Following his defeat by Tregear, Taiga's particles of light wandered in space-time continuum and bonded with Hiroyuki to save the boy from a great fall. As his body recuperated in the span of 12 years, Taiga reveal himself to save the Zandrias family from Hellberus while dedicating his life to save Earth from multiple threats. Taiga grew stronger with his own set of powers, but slowly fell into the corruption induced from prolonged use of the Monster Rings. He was rescued by Hiroyuki and eventually gains a new form, Tri-Strium, as a result. After the battle against Woola, Taiga offered Tregear a chance of redemption, but was rejected and forced to defeat him with Quattro Squad Blaster.^[12]

At some point later on, Taiga found himself facing against his corrupted father and dealt with a reckless Hiroyuki. Riku give the Ultra an advice of facing one's father, and that only their son that could save them.^[9]

Taiga's fighting skill is balanced and utilizes the same stance as his father. His finisher is Strium Blaster (ストリウムブラスター, Sutoriumu Burasutā).^[10] After being given the Plasma Zero-let (プラズマゼロレット, Purazuma Zero-retto) by Zero,^[12] Taiga and any of his forms can augment Zero's abilities to his own; Taiga Dynamite Shoot (タイガダイナマイトシュート, Taiga Dainamaito Shūto), Taiga Emerium Blaster (タイガエメリウムブラスター, Taiga Emeriumu Burasutā) and Wide Taiga Shot (ワイドタイガショット, Waido Taiga Shotto). Taiga would later gain access to other forms in the series progress:

• Photon-Earth (フォトンアース, Foton Āsu): Taiga's power-up form, which he obtained through Ai Tennoji's help. His personal Key Holder was upgraded into Photon-Earth Key Holder (フォトンアースキーホルダー, Foton Āsu Kī Horudā) as Hiroyuki scans it thrice and empowers the Ultra with the energy of the Earth and Sun. Declaring himself as the "Hero of the Land and Sky" (大地天空の勇者, Daichi Tenkū no Yūsha), his body color becomes predominantly black and dons a set of gold and silver armor. His finisher in this form is Aurum Strium (オーラムストリウム, Ōramu Sutoriumu).^[15]
• Tri-Strium (トライストリウム, Torai Sutoriumu): Taiga's strongest form also known as the "Hero of Bonds" (絆の勇者, Kizuna no Yūsha) when Hiroyuki accessed the Tri-Squad-let (トライスクワッドレット, Torai Sukuwaddo-retto), combining with the rest of the Tri-Squad members and his human host. Taiga obtains the sword named Taiga Tri Blade (タイガトライブレード, Taiga Torai Burēdo), allowing him to utilize enhanced versions of the Tri-Squad members' finishing moves or his independent attack, Tri-Strium Burst (トライストリウムバースト, Torai Sutoriumu Bāsuto).^[15]

During the Ultra People's final stand against the Heller Empire, Titas was hesitant in initiating Ultra Change until the death of Matia triggered his first transformation and killed the monster Kishiadar. Titas met Taiga when the latter visited U40 and later on forms the Tri-Squad after Fuma joined them.

Following his defeat from Tregear, Titas' particles of light roamed in outer space and assisted the spirit of Nana Kujō to stop her vengeful husband from destroying Cozmo Technica.^[2] After fulfilling her wish and stopping Galactron MK2, Titas bonded with Hiroyuki as he reunited with Taiga.

With his carefully trained body and healthy spirit, Titas is skilled in heavyweight battles. Being an Ultra Person of U40, Titas bears a Star Symbol (スターシンボル, Sutā Shinboru) that he obtained by the Great Sage but operates normally like a Land of Light Ultra's Color Timer.^[2] His black coloration is said to be a remnant from his Anti-Ultra Humanoid origin.

He was born on said planet as his father was incapable of returning to his home world out of embarrassment. While making his living as a street child, the boy received tutelage under an alien named Gerg and the two since then took various odd jobs in hopes of being recognized by O-50's Ring of Light. After being injured by the Interstellar Alliance due to being tricked into fighting his mentor, Fuma was brought to the Warrior's Peak and becomes an Ultraman in order to save his life. He had since remain as an Ultraman to honor Gerg. Fuma would meet Taiga and Titas when his home world was under attack by alien forces and together, the three defend the Warrior's Peak and form the Tri-Squad.

After his seeming death from Tregear, Fuma's particles entered a jewelry which passed on to various users, with the recent owner being the Villain Guild itself. Volk stole it in hopes of selling it to support the impoverished alien children before Fuma escaped to fight Darebolic and rejoin the Tri-Squad.

He has a rough personality, but also a strong sense of duty. Fuma utilizes speed and agility during combat, as well as firing energy shuriken.^[2] His finisher is Polar Star Light Wave Shuriken (極星光波手裏剣, Kyokusei Kōha Shuriken),^[10][2] which is said to be taught by his alien instructor Gerg even before his transition into an Ultra.
