Synopsis:
In the very first episode a strange visitor from space notices Toma's bravery when the young man risks his own life to help save a lost little boy from danger. The alien gives Toma the power to become the mighty superhero Ultraman Max, a towering red and silver giant 40 meters tall. When two gigantic monsters threaten the world, Toma uses his new powers to destroy them.
The captain of Team DASH, the elite squad that defends Earth from otherworldly dangers, soon learns of Toma's brave actions and invites Toma to join Team DASH at their headquarters in Base Titan, a massive off-shore structure in Tokyo Bay. Their super weapons include the fighter jets DASH Bird 1 and DASH Bird 2 as well as the jet engine equipped super car DASH Alpha. The other members of DASH include Agent Koba, the hot-headed weapons exper, Agent Mizuki, DASH's ace pilot as brave as she is beautiful, Agent Sean from America, and Agent Tabata, who creates and maintains the team's super weapons. Also on the team are two android members, Ellie, who looks like a beautiful girl but is really a high powered super computer, and her companion Coco, a cute robot mascot.
