Antagonists[]

The Dark Giants were defeated by Trigger and the Terran Defense Team and had their petrified forms placed at the opposite ends of the universe.[26] Once all three of them are reawakened and reunited in the present day, the dark giants made multiple attempts in facing against Kengo and his comrades, either through their sheer strength or the ability to command monsters under their will.[26][18][19][32][33]

The trio is based on the similarly named team from Ultraman Tiga: The Final Odyssey.[5] This decision is done due to Ultraman Tiga's past association with his former allies, hence the three giants in Trigger having past association to the titular Ultra as well.[34]

Agile Tactician Hudram (俊敏策士 ヒュドラム, Shunbin Sakushi Hyudoramu) is the blue-colored Dark Giant who served as the team's combat strategist, using various forms of tricks while having a hidden brutal side.[33][18][19][26] Although he is the last to appear on Earth, Hudram was awakened at a century earlier than his peers and at least made himself known to Planet Lishuria, with his undisclosed actions caused Ignis to resent him. At some point after Darrgon's reawakening, Hudram targeted Yuna in order to draw out Yuzare's spirit and even enlisted Gazort to his aid, only to be dragged out of the battle by his peers to keep his temper in check.

As Hudram is physically weak, he makes it up through his cunning wits and reliance on deception.[18][19][26] In battle, he wields the arm blade Dagger Hudram (ダガーヒュドラム, Dagā Hyudoramu) on his right arm and releases the Hudrast (ヒュドラスト, Hyudorasuto) from the weapon.[18][19][32]
