So just realized the reason why 80, Neos, 21, Great, Powered, and Max are being highlighted in UGF:TAC; it is their anniversaries this year. One thing to consider is while Great actually is a 1990 show and Powered a 1993 show, both of their Japanese dubs aired in Japan in 1995. So by Japanese broadcasting year standards:
Ultraman 80, 40th anniversary Ultraman Great and Ultraman Powered, 25th anniversary Ultraman Neos, 20th anniversary(Ultraseven 21 is the secondary ultra of the show) Ultraman Max, 15th anniversary Oh and fun fact, Kane Kosugi who played Jiraiya/Ninja Black in Kakuranger was protagonist Kenichi Kai in Ultraman Powered and Kunio Masaoka who was Shohei/Oh Green in Ohranger was one of Ultraseven 21's(read as Two-One) many disguises in Ultraman Neos. And Jun Takatsuki who was Satoru/Kamen Rider Tiger in Kamen Rider Ryuki was Genki Kagura/Ultraman Neos in Ultraman Neos. Last edited by Sunred; 11-27-2020 at 08:36 PM.. |

You never know, though! Seems like Z did really well, after all. Maybe this is all just prepping us for when Tsuburaya makes next year's show Ultraman ZZ: the student of Z, who is also the son of Tiga for some reason.

Huh. Given the choice of theme for the Chronicle shows usually reflects the next series in some way (however minor), I have to wonder if that'll hold true here. Maybe Tsuburaya is toying with the idea of backing away a bit from Showa nostalgia now that Heisei is retro too? I assume Z is only there to keep things familiar for the modern audience, at any rate.

I also think part of it was how well the fandom seems to have responded to Gamma Future considering it won the official twitter poll for favorite Z form. And maybe it just me but I feel like Tsuburaya put in the most amount of work in thier references and deep cuts to the TDG trio in Gamma Future compared to not just the other Z forms but all Ultra Fusions.

90s is considered retro so there is that, and Ultraman is currently Bandai's top-ranked toku franchise this year so far. And with the 55th anniversary coming soon next year I would not be surprised if they took a sabbatical with the Showa stuff like you said and revist the TDG trio starting with Tiga since it is the show's 30th anniversary next year.
I'm reminded of the Saga film and wondering if a Part 2 to that entry would suffice..."Ultraman Saga Future"! |

And here I was, under the impression that footage for Tiga was off limits due to V6 being protective of the guy who played Daigo making any form of appearance (hence why Tiga stock footage is barely featured in Retsudens). Did they cut a deal, or was I mistaken?

Perhaps they finally have worked something out on the rights issue. I'd love to hear Take Me Higher again (I know I can listen to it whenever I want, but you know what I mean)!

I'm curious if this means Tiga will get a proper voice actor or Hiroshi Nagano will return. The former is the most likely though.
Oh, you can bet that 2021 Ultraman will have his name ends with "-a" to go along with Tiga, Dyna and Gaia. Ultraman Giga? Magna? And it seems that Alpha Edge will be 'obsolete' and Z will be represented through his Original form like Nexus Junis and Orb Origin did.

That seems possible and factoring what GrandComplete said with Gamma Future proving to be a fan favorite form, even if they continue the New Generation route of using senpai collectibles I have a feeling the TDG trio might be the center of attention for next year. Maybe they can do what Max did and have the actors from that late 90s era guest star like how the Showa Ultra actors appeared in Max.
