Starting with the Ultraman series, Tsuburaya Productions has been sending messages to its fans for over half a century. Now, we have many fans who support us across both generational divides and national borders. These days, the world faces unprecedented harsh conditions as we contend with a major common threat. We can’t meet with family or friends, we can’t go outside, and we can only watch the people dear to us from afar. We want to present you all with a free program called “Stay At Home With Ultraman” that you can enjoy as you stay indoors. We believe in the strength of our fans and the bright future that is waiting for us. Together, we can overcome these trying times. Ultraman is always by your side.?
