Main director will be Ultraman X's director Taguchi.

After Ultraman X which was fantastic I really look forward to this (as well as the X movie of course). Assuming it is a new show and not a movie.
I love his look and his form changes. Really excited for this series.
Get hype!
Looking at the full scans, really looks like Ultraman now has to a) have a whole bunch of alternate forms and b) pander to nostalgia forever and ever to exist at all.
His forms look good though. Especially Burn Might.
Updated my first post for the thread.
We got some nice new big official images.
So from the looks of it Orb will mix match similar Ultras to form change.
I am looking forward to this and I hope this gets a good ol' 48~52 ep year-long season.
So, I'm all types of in.
Not digging the Ultra suits, but I enjoyed the hell out of the last couple Ultra series and really hope that this keeps up the quality.
So... which of those is his base form? Or does he have no proper base form?
Yep. That sure is an Ultraman.
