History
Past
Ark Bogarl was once known as Bogarl Master , and was the highest leader of the Bogarl group due to his high intelligence, hence making him both sentient and calculative. He joined the Dark Four Heavenly Kings as their Wicked General at some point of time, but during his assignments to conquer planets under the Empera Army's banner, Ark Bogarl instead fell into the same insatiable appetite that plagued his kin. This lead to him devouring planets and its inhabitants instead of conquering them. Due to his unruly behavior, he was sealed by the Empera and had his position replaced by Yapool.[1]

By the time Alien Empera died, the seal was lifted, thus allowing Ark Bogarl to resume his reign of terror without his former comrades or master keeping him in check.
Ark Bogarl Appears! Fight, Ultra Brothers!
Ark Bogarl appeared when Ultraman Mebius and Ultraman Hikari were recounting their past battles, with Ultraseven joining in after tracing the monster's energy. When Ark shot a massive dark energy wave to stun the three Ultras, Hikari fired his Hot Load Shoot attack to disable Ark Bogarl's offensive, allowing Mebius and Seven to deliver their counterattack. Ark Bogarl then retreated to his personal dimension, as the three Ultras knew that their fight was far from over.
DX Ultra Cockpit
Ark Bogarl set his sight on Planet Earth, specifically at some point after the Alien Empera was defeated. Wanting to devour the planet for himself,[1] he tried to set up the monster attack by arranging his "cuisine" in an orderly fashion:
- Planet Earth itself is his main dish,
- Humans are his hors d'oeuvre (appetizer),
- The monsters and aliens he summoned were going to be his seasoning, regardless if they were subservient to his commands, and lastly;
- The Ultra Brothers as his desserts.
Other than the Ultra Brothers, the two members of Crew GUYS; Ryu Aihara and an unnamed rookie member (the players who assumed the role of his co-pilot) were assigned to stop his reign of terror, using GUYS' own mecha and a series of past defense team mechas, now retrofitted to be compatible with the Gun Speeder system.
The Legendary Monsters Return! The birth of a Space King, Ark Bogarl!
Ark Bogarl sent off a giant Lesser Bogarl, Eleking, Alien Iyros, and a Bogarlmons to attack Earth.[2] Mebius, Hikari and Seven would notify to the two Crew GUYS that these attacks came from someone who used the same energy frequency as the Bogarl that Hikari fought in the past, later revealed to be Ark Bogarl himself. It was also speculated that behind the scenes, Ark Bogarl had amplified another Bogarl's energy and turn it into Bogarlmons in an instant.
Seven in Danger! The Invaders are Approaching the Earth
Don't you think this is over, Ultraseven! You are currently under the _target of assassination from Ark Bogarl-sama's orders!"
"Ark Bogarl, you say?"
"This is the end, for you and this planet that is! (laughs, then explodes)Alien Magma and Ultraseven
Another wave of monsters were dispatched, all of which were assigned by Ark Bogarl to assassinate Ultraseven. They consisted of Alien Magma and the Giras Brothers, Inpelaizer, Alien Guts and Grozam.[3] It was at this point when GUYS and the Ultra Brothers learned the identity of their attacker.
The Final Battle! Ultra Brothers VS Ark Bogarl
The final wave of monsters to be deployed are Seagorath, Seamons, Dinozole and Gammas. The Ultra Brothers came to realize that these monsters arrived simply as a result of the Bogarl king simply manipulating them to do so; hence Seagorath and Seamons were allowed to return to the ocean and the herd of Dinozole being lured to this planet for reasons unknown. GUYS Spacy detected a mass energy reading coming from the Ultra Zone and this prompted Ryu and the rookie to investigate in Gun Phoenixtriker. After dealing with some resurrected monsters (Birdon, Arstron, Sadola and Arigera), Ark Bogarl appeared to the Crew GUYS, congratulating them for finding him and admitting that by hiding in the Ultra Zone, he was able to safely assign, manipulate and resurrect past Kaiju and aliens to fight for his cause.
This, this light is..."
"This is the power of bonds between humans and Ultras."
"Ark Bogarl, the Monster Graveyard will never be your resting place!"
"This amazing heat, this amazing brightness, my greatest appetite is fulfilled!"Ark Bogarl, Mebius and Seven.
Ark Bogarl tried to confuse the Gun Phoenixtriker with his clones, then absorbing the jet's firepower until Mebius, Hikari, Seven, Jack and Ace came to their aid. However as the monster proved himself able to devour their energy beams again, Gun Phoenixtriker launched the Invisible Phoenix: Power Maximum at its stomach, causing Ark to overload and explode, but nevertheless content that his hunger could finally be satiated even if it meant his death. His destruction marked the Earth finally being at peace once again.
Profile

- Height: 61 m[1]
- Weight: 51,000 t[1]
- Origin: Space
- Weaknesses:
- Ark Bogarl can still be overwhelmed by a large amount of beam attacks being force-feed to his stomach.
- Additionally he can also be destroyed from inside out, provided that the being he tried to devour is a Super Ultraman.
- Powers and Weapons
- Devour: Like the Bogarls, Ark Bogarl is able to devour a large quantity of objects. However due to his insatiable appetite, this means that his meals also extend to planets and their native residents.
- Beam Absorption: Without relying on its wings, Ark Bogarl can absorb beam attacks through his stomach. A strong enough attack, such as five Ultras' Ultra Beam and Gun Phoenixtriker's Invisible Phoenix prove more than enough for Ark Bogarl to handle however.
- Alternate Dimension Gate : Ark Bogarl is able to open a portal which he use as a means of attacking his _targets and summon monsters.[1]
- Energy Waves: Ark Bogarl can fire a dark reddish wave of energy from his claws, doing so to torment Mebius, Hikari and Seven.
- Durability: Ark Bogarl was hit by Ultraman Hikari's Hot Load Shoot and Ultraman Mebius and Ultraseven's Mebium-Eye Slugger, but proves himself resilient despite showing visible reactions to pain.
- Energy Blast: Ark Bogarl is also able to fire energy blasts from his hands.
- Flight: Ark Bogarl can perform zero gravity flight.
- Cloning: Ark Bogarl can split into five separate clones as a divisionary tactic.
- Resurrection: Ark Bogarl can resurrect deceased monsters and aliens. As seen in Grozam, his powers meant that the resurrected ones lacked a will of their own and speaks in repeated mantra.
- Monster Manipulation: Ark Bogarl can manipulate monsters into his bidding. As proclaimed by Jack, this is the reason why Seagorath and Seamons started to attack until their powers are severed.
- Barrier: In the PS3 game, Super Hero Generation, Ark Bogarl is able to conjure a barrier to block attacks.

Ultraman Mebius Gaiden: Super Galaxy Wars (manga)
Ark Bogarl appears in the manga written by Mamoru Uchiyama. Whether the manga overlaps with the DX Ultra Cockpit above or simply diverging into its own story is unknown.
Ark Bogarl transmitted a space-time wave across the universe to cause monsters to wreak havoc and assigned them with the help of an Alien Chibull to capture and collect these monsters in a monster farm. When his activity caught the attention of the Ultra Brothers, as well as losing Chibull, Georgon and the space time transmitter device, Ark Bogarl personally appeared to fight them. He then devoured Mebius, Hikari, and the rest of the Crew GUYS that came to his aid, but his voracious appetite became his undoing, as Mebius Phoenix Brave was formed from within his stomach, who proceed to destroy the monster from inside out.
