Four Ultraman Shows To Leave Crunchyroll

Posted on October 12, 2018 at 7:52 pm by Kiryu under Ultraman

While Super Sentai fans celebrate VRV’s addition of Zyuranger to its services, we have some unfortunate news for fans of Ultraman; Crunchyroll has announced that several Ultraman shows will be leaving its library citing licensing issues as the main problem.

The four shows are as follows: Ultraman Leo, Ultraman 80, Ultraman Max, and Ultraman Mebius. Ultraman X will remain while nothing has been said about Orb or Geed getting taken down as of this writing.

Fans of these shows will have until October 14th, 2019 at 8 AM PST to finish watching before they get removed from Crunchyroll’s streaming service.

    Sad news everyone, due to licencing issues it seems like several Ultraman shows will soon be leaving Crunchyroll.

    Those four series are as follows:

    Ultraman Leo
    Ultraman 80
    Ultraman Max
    Ultraman Mebius

    Ultraman X will still be available.

    I think it is more of a mere license expiration rather than issues amongst Tsuburaya and Crunchyroll from the way I see it. Just businesses doin business things.

    Well that's sad news, I quite liked 80 and was planning on checking out Mebius. I suppose that's licensing for you though.

    Damn, I never got around to watching Mebius. I may want to get back to Gaia now before it gets yanked, too.

    AAAAAH! I was gonna watch those... eventually... at some point... I hope they get added back at a later point in time.

    They'll probably all end up on Toku's service eventually. There's already a bunch of Ultraman (and Mirrorman and Gridman) there.

    WATCH MAX AND MEBIUS.

    Probably best to watch it while you can. Just a personal thought but based on the fact that they are not extending the license, I think we can safely assume that they are done with it. Of course, nothing is a guaranteed 100% with these things and maybe it will come back on Crunchyroll, but at the same time we don't know if that will 100% happen. So probably best to plow through it when possible.

    "Toku's service"? I'm lost!

    I've never followed up on Ultraman in the capacity I probably need to, but this might be worth expediting!

    We technically have a year, or so, so some time remains.

    Really wish SHOUT! would regain the license to release Ultraman to disk again! They did for Ultra-Q and Ultra Seven, and they have Ultraman Leo for streaming!

    Right here.

    I just noticed that Max and Leo are listed as coming soon.
