Balloonga (バルンガ, Barunga) was a Kaiju that appeared in the TV series, Ultra Q.

Subtitle: Balloon Monster (風船怪獣, Fūsen Kaijū)

History[]

Ultra Q[]

Arriving on Earth on board the Saturn-1 exploration rocket, Balloonga started life as a small object. Exposed to energy, the creature rapidly began to grow. Within hours it hovered over the city of Tokyo, blotting out the sun and devouring any form of energy it could. Rockets only made it grow bigger and a coming typhoon fed it even more. It seemed as if the beast would devour all energy on the planet until an artificial sun was created deep within space. As the intense energy reached the Earth, it got Balloonga's attention. The strange creature began to drift upward, heading for the artificial sun that could feed it for eternity or kill it.

Trivia[]

  • Balloonga uses an altered Dogora sound effect.
  • Balloonga is one of the Kaiju that makes up Belyudra.

Ultraman Orb Chronicle Chapter 3: 'The Man Who Stole The Black Hole' Arc[]

Because of Balloonga's destructive nature, it was kept within a Super Polymerized Gold Capsule (超重合金カプセル, Chō Jū Gōkin Kapuseru) on the prison planet, Planet 484, under maximum security until Juggler obtains it from his prison break. Juggler turned it into a Balloonga Bomb (バルンガボム, Barunga Bomu) that would threaten the balance of the universe, creating a black hole. Using this he threatened the Interstellar Alliance to bring Gai to him. It was defused by Shorty, but he died doing so after he was shocked by a high-voltage electrical discharge. What happens to it afterwards is unknown.

Trivia[]

  • The use of Balloonga Bomb in the plot reflected that of 1979 Japanese movie The Man Who Stole the Sun (太陽を盗んだ男, Taiyō o Nusunda Otoko). In fact, the whole plot itself and the chapter's name is a tribute to said movie.

Ultraman F[]

It was revealed that samples of Balloonga was kept and used by Mitsuhiro Ide and Inpei Seant to create Ultra Armor F and used by Akiko Fuji. Balloonga's trait was shown when Fuji (Giant Soldier F) was able to absorb incoming attacks from Dark Faust, Dark Mephisto, and Dark Zagi but this also resulted with the birth of Ultraman F.

To compensate for the lack of energy absorbing power, Ide created the Balloonga Aegis for Ultraman F to use, later on this armor destroyed by Hyper Zetton. Ultraman F
