When it comes to iconic Japanese tokusatsu heroes, Ultraman reigns supreme! The franchise boasts a massive following across its many series, consistently dropping new installments. This year marks a monumental milestone: the 60th anniversary of the original series, and the celebrations are already in full swing!
During today's (September 14) "TSUBUCON 2025" event, a brand-new Ultraman Zero movie was officially announced to commemorate the series' 60th anniversary! Release dates are still under wraps, so keep those eyes peeled!
Ultraman Zero first burst onto the scene in the 2009 film "Mega Monster Battle Ultra Galaxy: The Movie." He then took center stage again the following year in "Ultraman Zero: The Revenge of Belial." This year also marks his own 15th anniversary!
Zero's series was the first Ultraman project after Bandai's investment, and he's famously the first Ultraman to rock two head crests. With the legendary Mamoru Miyano lending his voice to Zero, his popularity is, simply put, off the charts!
As the esteemed Son of Seven, Ultraman Zero is undeniably one of the most pivotal Ultraman characters of the modern era. It's only fitting that he's been chosen to headline this epic 60th-anniversary project!
Naturally, fans are already buzzing about what kind of formidable foe Zero will face this time. At the "TSUBUCON 2025" event, Mamoru Miyano, the voice of Zero, made a thrilling appearance alongside the voice of Ultraman Seven, delivering an electrifying father-son performance that sent fans into a frenzy! This strongly hints that we can expect an epic father-son team-up in the new movie!
