==Appearance==
For most of the series, Fighbird appears as his human disguise Yuutarou Katori, a man in his 20s with black hair and blue eyes, wearing a pair of glasses, red jacket, yellow shirt and white trousers. When starting to fight as Fighbird, he drops his glasses, before revealing his android body: That of a big robot with white and blue body and a red helmet. However, after his android body is destroyed in the final episode, it's revealed that his human appearance is what he really looks like.
==Personality==
As an alien, Fighbird doesn't know Earth well, easily mistaken a butterfly for a pigeon. He loves animals and is kind to everyone around him, as well as being rather awkward around women. However, to those he considers enemies, he is wrathful and can become a fearsome force, willing to fight them to protect those he cares about.
==Biography==
In 2010, Fighbird leads the Space Police Force to chase the intergalactic criminal Draias and his minions Shura and Zol to Earth. Knowing that they can't blend in human society without a disguise, Fighbird and the Space Police Force meet Dr. Hiroshi Amano and have him design android bodies for them to possess. Fighbird's body design is created by Dr. Amano's granddaughter, Haruka. With this body, Fighbird can transform into a human form. He takes on the identity of Yuutarou Katori, Dr. Amano's assistant.
Meanwhile, Draias, Shura and Zol also possess the androids of Dr. Amano's rival, Dr. Jango Tarantino. Together, the four plot to plunge the Earth into darkness and enslave humanity. From then on, Fighbird leads his comrades to fight against Draias while trying to adapt himself with humans and learning more about the Earth.
