Tsuburaya Productions has announced the release date of a new Ultraman series called “Ultraman Taiga”.

For the first time since the franchise’s inception, the protagonist of the series, Hiroyuki Kudo, will be able to transform into three different Ultramen: the titular Ultraman Taiga, the powerful Ultraman Titas and the speedy Ultraman Fuma.

The overview of the plot and the three distinct Ultramen directly from Tsuburaya Productions:

■Synopsis

Aliens have been emigrating to Earth secretly, but only a handful knows about this truth. Living in such a society, the main character Hiroyuki Kudo begins working at a private security organization E.G.I.S. (Enterprise of Guard and Investigation Services). The organization takes care of cases related with aliens, and Hiroyuki works day and night to protect peace.

However, there lies a huge secret in him, which he himself is not aware of. He carries Ultraman Taiga’s “particle of light”.

The new story begins as Taiga’s powers revive from Hiroyuki’s body!

●Ultraman Taiga

The son of Ultraman Taro (first appeared in ULTRAMAN TARO (1973)), who once saved the Earth.

Deep inside, he wishes his father Taro to understand and recognize him, but he cannot admit his true feelings.

He has a strong sense of justice and is very enthusiastic. Along with Titas and Fuma, he founded the “Tri Squad”. Although still young and not skilled, but he dedicates to fight for peace on Earth.

Together with Hiroyuki, he grows to become a true Ultraman.

●Ultraman Titas

The second Ultraman that dwells inside Hiroyuki.

Ultraman Titas is a warrior and a sage from Planet U40, the birthplace of Ultraman Joneus (first appeared in THE ULTRAMAN (1979)), as opposed to the Land of Light in Nebula M78. With his carefully trained body and healthy spirit, he is skilled in heavyweight battles.

●Ultraman Fuma

The third Ultraman that dwells inside Hiroyuki.

Ultraman Fuma is from Planet O-50, the planet where Ultraman Orb (first appeared in ULTRAMAN ORB (2016)), Rosso and Blu (both first appeared in ULTRAMAN R/B (2018)) acquired the power of the warrior of light. He has quick reflexes and various techniques that make him strong in battles that require speed.

He has a rough personality, but also a strong sense of duty.

●Ultraman Tregear

An evil Ultraman that first appeared in ULTRAMAN R/B The Movie (2019).

He is from Nebula M78 and was originally a close friend of Ultraman Taro, but fell to the dark side.

He is the arch-nemesis of Taiga and relentlessly targets him.

The new Ultraman Taiga TV series will premiere on TV Tokyo in Japan on the 6th of July, 2019.
