Netflix’s Ultraman is coming to a close as the final season starts this spring.
The latest trailer introduces two new cast members, Valkure (voiced by M・A・O) and Mephisto (voiced by Kōji Ishii).
Netflix has kept us waiting before returning to Eiichi Shimizu and illustrator Tomohiro Shimoguchi’s web manga. This title gave us Kamen Rider and Power Rangers, and perhaps Production I.G. needed time to do it justice.
IMDB has a user-submitted storyline for kickoff;
Set several years after the first Ultraman series, Shin Hayata, now a defense minister, has no memories of how he became Ultraman and saved the world from the Kaijus. Matsushiro Ide, his former personnel in the Science Patrol, tries to help him recover his memories in order to assist the Science Patrol eliminate new threats from the aliens. When the alien Bemular finds out that Hayata’s son, Shinjirou, starts showing superhuman strength, the Science Patrol risks everything to give Shinjirou the top-secret Ultrasuit to fight Bemular and save the world once again.
Tsuburya Productions recaps and picks up for us;
Shinjiro (ULTRAMAN) who saw a nightmare begins to realize he can no longer keep his abilities under control and struggles to contain them. His power is unleashed beyond his control, the city is destroyed, and people are hurt. Society begins to call ULTRAMAN a “disaster of mankind” and the hero becomes a target for condemnation. Shinjiro, alone and having lost everything, finds himself in the middle of a maelstrom of fate! In the shadows of the confusion, an ominous alien force moves in secret!
