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.
This title nearly fell off the radar, with Bandai Namco Games having released a sequel is coming down the pipe line. The first Lost Heroes game was released in 2012 and features characters from the Mobile Suit Gundam, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider franchises.

Gundam:
Unicorn
F91
00 Raiser
Kamen Rider:
Black
Fourze
Wizard
Ultraman:
Leo
Tiga
Ginga
Kamen RIder Black RX and the 00 Quanta are also in the game, interestingly enough those two will be treated as form changes according to the trailer. Lost Heroes 2 will be released on the Nintendo 3DS console in February 15th 2015, a premium version is also available for purchase.
