Reiwa Ultraman no.1 is ULTRAMAN TAIGA: SON OF TARO Starts July 6th 9:00 AM JST every Saturday. The story goes according to the official tv tokyo website that aliens have secretly been immigrating to Earth unbeknownst to the majority of Earthlings. Hiroyuki Kudo is an agent of E.G.I.S.(pronounced just like the famous shield Aegis), working to protect the peace. But what he doesn't know is that he carries Ultraman Taiga's particles of light within his body. Also, from what I picked up here and there Hiroyuki will also transform into Titas and Fuma, so Spider-man: Identity Crisis. Honestly I love Taiga's design, it feels like a super-updated Taro and rightfully so since his pops is THE ULTRAMAN TARO. It's also interesting that Hiroyuki's three Ultraman personalities are each representative of the three main tribes; Taiga representing the Silver tribe, Titas the Red tribe, and Fuma the Blue tribe.

Fumma's design is a little too generic for me. He looks indistinguishable for any other blue Ultra or form.
That aside, I really like everything here. It feels like it's been a long time since we've had the whole host and Ultra thing going on for our main character, and that there's three of them makes me think we're in for some Imagin-like shenanigans. |

So Father of Ultra is now "Grandfather of Ultra"?
Anyways, one guy transforming into three different Ultra is okay. I was assuming it was three entirely separate Ultra to surpass R/B in numbers. The idea of having Taro's son as the hero sounds cute; I'm on board with that. It would be cool if Ginga drops in as an older brother of sorts. The suits are okay. The main one I like best, the blue one is kinda bad and the buff one... no, just no. It looks horrible. What I like best so far: No fusions. Instead of borrowing powers from other Ultra we now have entirely new ones which just happen to be similar to some we know already because they hail from the same place. I hope it stays that way, but I fear they'll add legacy items as transformation trinkets regardless. I also hope that we'll get official subs again. |

So will this be kind of like den-o were we have 3 or 4 characters that provide power for the main character, and the 3 or 4 characters each get focus and character arcs?

Everything about these guys looks pretty cool. I can't wait to find out more about the collectible device though. It looks like they're going to be modeled after Ultraman color timers which is actually pretty cool.
I also like that we have another show that stars Ultras that come from planets already established in older shows. It really adds to the idea that despite coming from different realities, some of which where the titular Ultra is the only Ultra of that universe, Ultras are always connected to one another in at least subtle ways. Its a nice contrast to the stand alone nature of Rider and Sentai. |

I like that the press release is in English.
I really like what I see/read here. Host of 3 different Ultras, each from pre-established planets, being the Son of Taro and the R/B movie villain playing a part all sounds interesting! The designs are really good. Titus is ridiculous and great and I like that he has the star on his head and chest like Jonias. The Taiga Spark is the least toyetic looking thing we've seen in Ultraman for a while too. |
