The first Ultraman of Reiwa, the son of Taro, "Ultraman Taiga" will be broadcast on July 6

Today, Ultraman officially announced that the first Ultraman of the Reiwa generation will meet the players. The new series of Ultraman TV "Ultraman Taiga" will be broadcast on Tokyo TV at 9 am on July 6. The protagonist of this time, Ultraman Taiga, is the son of Taro. I am looking forward to this new Ultraman to bring a good viewing experience to fans.

The story of Ultraman Taiga tells the story of the protagonist Kudo Hiroyuki, who works for the civilian security organization "Egis" that mainly resolves disputes caused by aliens on Earth, where many aliens live in seclusion. Because the photon particles of Ultraman Taiga that possessed him were revived, he started a new adventure. This will be the first Ultraman drama of the Reiwa era, produced by Tsuburaya Co., Ltd., and Inoue Yuki will play the male protagonist Kudo Hiroyuki. Three different Ultramen are possessed in Kudo Hiroyuki's body. It's really a bit crowded when you think about it.

The official introduction of Ultraman Taiga:

Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd. will broadcast the new TV series "Ultraman Taiga" on Tokyo TV 6 starting at 9 a.m. on July 6, 2019 (Saturday).

Since the broadcast of "Ultraman" in July 1966, the giant hero "Ultraman Series" has been presented to everyone for 50 years. Among them, from "Ultraman Ginga" in 2013 to "Ultraman Rob" last year, it has been broadcast every year on TV Tokyo. The "New Generation Heroes" series has finally ushered in the seventh year of the birth of new heroes. The protagonist of this work, Yuyuki (played by Yuki Inoue), has also ushered in a new challenge in the series to transform into three Ultra Heroes. This year, Japan ushered in a new era, so please look forward to it. He is our first Reiwa Ultra Hero "Ultraman Taiga".

★Story Summary

There are many aliens living on Earth secretly. Only a small number of people know this truth, and the general public is not aware of it.

In such a society, the protagonist "Kudo Hiroyuki" works for the civilian security organization "Egis", which mainly resolves disputes caused by aliens, and works hard for peace every day.

But he is hiding a secret that even he himself doesn't know, that is the light particles of Ultraman Taiga attached to his body. The moment Ultraman Taiga awakens in Yuxing's body, a new story begins.

★Heroes

【Ultraman Taiga】

He is the son of Ultraman Taro (first appeared in Ultraman Taro (1973)), who once protected the Earth.

He really wants to be recognized by his father, Ultraman Taro, but he is also avoiding his true thoughts.

He is full of justice and passion, and together with Ultraman Titus and Ultraman Fuma, he forms a "three-man team". Although young and immature, he still fights for justice.

I hope to grow into an independent Ultraman Hero together with Youxing and my friends.

【Ultraman Titus】

The second Ultra Hero who resides in Yuyuki's body.

A descendant of Ultraman Jonias (first appeared in Ultraman Jonias (1979)), another Ultra Star outside the Land of Light - a warrior and sage of U40. With a strong body and an indomitable spirit, his strength is more suitable for participating in heavyweight battles.

【Ultraman Fuma】

The third Ultra Hero who resides in Yuyuki's body.

Like Ultraman Orb (first appeared in Ultraman Orb (2016)), Rosso, and Ultraman Blue (first appeared in Ultraman Rob (2018)), he was granted the power of the Warrior of Light in the O-50 Nebula. He is proficient in his own power, possesses a variety of skills, and is good at agile combat.

A little bit nervous but determined to stand up for justice.

★ Enemies appearing

【Ultraman Tregear】

An evil Ultraman who appears in "Ultraman Rob The Movie" (2019).

Born in the Land of Light in the M78 Nebula, he was once a good friend of Ultraman Taro, but his heart is blinded by darkness. He is the enemy throughout the game who is constantly entangled with Ultraman Taiga.

★Transformer

[Taiga Sparks]

This tool can release the sealed power of Ultra and maintain the bond between humans and Ultra Heroes. By reading the Ultra Taiga Light with the Taiga Spark, you can borrow the power of Ultra Heroes or monsters hidden in it.

[Ultra Taiga Light Ornament (Keychain Shape)]

A tool used to seal the power of Ultra Heroes and Monsters. It comes in keychain, necklace, ring, etc.

★Protagonist

Kudo Yuyuki (22)

A new member of the civilian security organization Aigis. A strong, kind, and righteous young man.

Once, when Kudo was attacked by aliens, he met Ultraman Taiga who came to Earth by chance and was saved by the Light of Taiga. Since then, Ultraman Taiga has been living in Kudo's body.

Yuxing lived in a very ordinary family environment without knowing anything, and later met Ultraman Titus and Ultraman Fuma and became partners.

Through constant experience, he grows into a person with a kind heart who can face the unknown without fear, and uses his own infectious power to gradually build a bridge of friendship between different races such as "humans", "astronauts", and "Ultra Warriors".

★Actor introduction

Yuki Inoue and Yuki Kudo play the role of Hiroyuki Kudo

Born on June 6, 1996 (22 years old) in Hiroshima Prefecture

Won the Judges' Special Award at the 2017 ホリプロタレントスカウトキャラバン.

He made his debut in July 2018 in "Peteerpan" (playing the role of Pirate Marion) in "Florence".

【Self-introduction】

I am Inoue Yuuki, who plays the protagonist Kudo Yuyuki this time.

I remember when I decided to take the role, I was sincerely happy that I could finally play the handsome Ultraman hero character that I had always admired.

After I told my family, my mother immediately sent me photos that she took when she was five years old at the annual Ultra Heroes performance. These photos brought back my childhood memories of Ultra Heroes.

This time, I finally got to create memories for everyone. The Ultraman series is something that you will never forget even when you become an adult. I will do my best to continue the story of Ultraman Taiga for everyone.

The character of the new member Youxing has many similarities with me when I just debuted. Through the guidance of my predecessors, I feel that I have gradually assimilated into this great character.

Dear staff and audience, I hope Ultraman Taiga can be liked by more people. Please give us your support.
