Probably not. Despite being the original, Ultraman himself rarely comes off as being one of the more important heroes. In-universe, Zoffy is more powerful and has a higher rank, while in the real world Seven is more often viewed as the big iconic hero among old school toku fans.

Ultraman's case really isn't help by the fact that there really *isn't* anything special about him outside of being the first Ultraman to come Earth in the Showa Universe. Ignoring that, there's very little about him that stands out and, because of the Multiverse, his status as the first Ultraman isn't really true outside of real life and, as I mentioned earlier, being the first Ultraman to come to Earth. He really doesn't even contribute all that much to the Multiverse as a whole.

What also doesn't help Ultraman's case though is that he didn't have much of a personality since his human form was not his own, but a guy he accidentally killed. Therefore, the little development there was, was for Hayate and not Ultraman, unlike Seven who was just as much Dan as he was Seven.

Damn, poor Ultraman. Ichigo certainly doesn't have this problem.
Though on the other hand, it's not like Sentai's first team gets anywhere near these two's recognition or love.

Well of the three Showa shows I have watched, the original is the only one without a personality. Seven and Leo both have human forms. Hell, Seven is hands down the best Ultra show ever.

If you've ever seen Ultraman Zero the Movie, this is what was being referenced when Run had no memory of Zero using his body. |

Nope. I've just been getting back into Ultraman. In fact, this year was the first time I have watched Ultraman since Nexus was first airing.
