Yametaranese (ヤメタランス, Yametaransu) is a Kaiju that debuted in the TV series, Return of Ultraman. He first appeared in episode 48.

Subtitle: Lazy Monster (なまけ怪獣, Namake Kaijū)

Conception

Etymology

Yametaranese's name is derived from the Japanese word Yameta (辞めた), which can be translated as "I quit". Fittingly, multiple humans afflicted with Yametaranese's Laziness Radiation in his debut episode say this phrase upon the effects of the radiation taking hold.

History

Return of Ultraman

Yametaranese was a monster sent by Sasahiller in his plan to conquer the Earth without opposition by making all of humanity lazy and unmotivated. Yametaranese himself however was as his power portrays him, lazy. He was first discovered in a park by a lazy boy named Jiro, who rather than become lazy from Yametaranese, became hyperactive. Running around the city, Jiro spread Yametaranese's lazy radiation to several people around town in an epidemic-esque fashion, transforming everyone into acting lazy and unmotivated, according to Sasahiller's plan. Meanwhile, with an abundance of food nearby, Yametaranese quickly grew into a giant monster.

MAT was called into action by the city's extreme growth in laziness and while on patrol, found Yametaranese. Before MAT could respond however, they too became victims of Yametaranese's laziness radiation. Jiro then took matters into his own hands by taking one of MAT's weapons and firing it at Yametaranese. This upset Yametaranese and quickly put Jiro in danger, but thanks to Hideki's motivation finally kicking in once he saw Jiro in danger, Hideki transformed into Ultraman Jack to fight the monster. Sure enough, Ultraman Jack was quickly contaminated by Yametaranese laziness, but the Ultra managed to use the Ultra Bracelet to shrink Yametaranese back down to his original size, preventing any more incidents from spreading any further. Also by Jiro's request and realizing Yametaranese was not truly evil, Ultraman Jack took the tiny monster and hurled him back into space where he could live peacefully and free from Sasahiller's control, thus preventing his laziness from doing anymore damage. However, these actions would only prompt Sasahiller to take matters into his own hands. I'm Taking the Earth

Yametaranese

Yametaranese appeared in the second movie special and was the last monster to be Ultlived by the Livepad. When he came in, Gomora, Reionic Burst Gomora, and EX Gomora became lazy and sleepy. Yametaranese was distraught by this and left. After he was gone, Gomora defeated Reionic Burst Gomora first and then EX Gomora after that with a single kick.

Trivia

  • Yametaranse was never intended, nor even considered to be a part of this film at any point. But when the film's director found a spare costume for Yametaranese that was usually used in live stage shows in the costume warehouse, a small scene with him was added last minute.

  • Laziness Radiation: Yametaranese' presence spreads emotions of laziness to all living beings. His radiation can also spread by touch from those who were exposed to him up close. Lazy attitude is identified by the subject possessing freckles all over their face and hiccuping. This radiation can be conquered by extreme motivation or those who are lazy by nature, who are instead rendered hyperactive. However, even those who are unaffected or experience the opposite effect can spread the radiation, acting as carriers of its associated consequences.
