Super GUTS (Super Global Unlimited Task Squad)

, or shortened as S-GUTS, is the human task force in Ultraman Dyna, succeeding its predecessor team, GUTS in Ultraman Tiga.https://m-78.jp/character/superguts/
==Overview==
Super GUTS is a special investigative unit that TPC established as part of the Neo Frontier Project to expand its capabilities. The team consists of seven members and is tasked with responding to, investigating, and managing supernatural phenomena, mysterious events, and emergencies. Compared to the previous GUTS, Super GUTS has undergone strengthening and restructuring, primarily focusing on combat operations.
In the face of various threats from Kaiju and extraterrestrial invaders, Super GUTS is equipped with a range of the most advanced combat gear within TPC, possessing formidable military power. Furthermore, their operational scope extends beyond Earth, even reaching into the solar system.
Members of Super GUTS undergo rigorous training and selection to ensure they have the abilities to handle various crises and abnormal events. However, despite this, it seems their salaries are somewhat low.
==History==
===Ultraman Dyna===
In 2013, with the implementation of the Neo Frontier Project and in preparation for future peacekeeping challenges, TPC decided to strengthen its military capabilities. Building upon the existing GUTS restructuring plan, they proposed a plan to create a new GUTS organization with trainees from the ZERO training institution as its core. As the organization continued to expand, Super GUTS was formally established in 2014.
In 2017, Super GUTS conducted its first round of member selection, with Shin Asuka, a trainee from the ZERO training institution, becoming a new member of the team. However, when they learned of the appearance of Darambia generated by Spheres on the Mars base, Super GUTS embarked on a life-or-death battle against the Spheres on Mars. Just as the battle reached a standstill, a new Giant of Light appeared and successfully defeated Darambia. Following internal debates within Super GUTS, this warrior was named Ultraman Dyna.
Subsequently, Super GUTS conducted multiple investigative and combat missions worldwide, during which they discovered a small creature on Planet Merani, which they named Hanejiro, and brought it back to Earth, where it became the team's mascot.
In 2020, the appearance of the planet-sized Gran-Sphere led to the sequential consumption of various planets, space stations, and TPC space bases within the solar system. In response to this massive threat, Super GUTS reactivated the Neo Maxima Cannon and unsealed it. Super GUTS, in collaboration with Dyna, managed to defeat Gran-Sphere. However, when Gran-Sphere was eliminated, it triggered a gravitational field that formed a wormhole, swallowing Dyna and rendering its whereabouts unknown. The planets consumed by Gran-Sphere also returned to their original state shortly thereafter.
===Ultraman Dyna: Zero Drive Towards Tomorrow===
In the second year following Asuka's disappearance in the alternate timeline, TPC underwent a significant internal restructuring. The majority of Super GUTS members relocated to Mars, becoming initial members of the new team known as .
In addition to the Mars team, due to the increased necessity for risk management, TPC established two additional teams at bases on Ganymede and Titan, named and , respectively.
On Earth, to replace the original Super GUTS, Neo Super GUTS was established in the year 2027.
===Ultraman Saga===
In 2035, some members of Super GUTS Mars were promoted to higher ranks and worked at the larger Mars base. Among them, the new member, Nozomu Taiga, joined this team based on ZERO's recommendation.
However, on the 15th anniversary of Asuka's disappearance, the Spheres suddenly appeared and attacked the base. During this battle, Taiga and other Spheres were transported to a different parallel universe by Alien Bat, and he lost contact with Super GUTS Mars.
In the end, when Asuka briefly returned to his own universe, he contacted the Super GUTS Mars members and informed them that Taiga was still alive.

==Trivia==
*Mai is the only team member of Super GUTS that didn't make any appearance in Ultraman Saga. This might probably due to the fact that she had left the team some time after Asuka's disappearance.
**Actually, she was scheduled to appear in Ultraman Saga where she is a ZERO Training Squad instructor. However, this never made out due to her actress Mariya Yamada being pregnant at the time of the recording.
*All of Super GUTS members made a cameo appearance in Ultraman Tiga: The Final Odyssey before they were part of Super GUTS. Captain Hibiki, Ryo, Karya and Kohda were trainees in ZERO, they appeared helping GUTS fighting the Shibito-Zoigers. While Mai was a high school student, she appeared with her classmate when the dark cloud first spread across the world. Nakajima and his teammates were the ones who first detected the dark cloud, deducing it was coming from R'lyeh and Asuka appeared at the end of the movie, he was part of the maintenance crew for Daigo and Rena's ship to Mars.
