Officially announced by the Tsuburaya Ultraman Global Portal on twitter, we now have a face to go with the name, Ultraman Z! Along with the reveal of Ultraman Z’s (pronounced as Zett) design we also have a synopsis of his story, and you could probably guess it with that name, he’s a disciple of Ultraman Zero!
The newest Ultra Hero is Ultraman Zett, the disciple of Ultraman Zero, who is now celebrating his tenth anniversary! An admirer of Zero, Zett worked hard to become a member of the “Inter Galactic Defense Force.” With a passion inherited from his teacher Zero, Zett is an Ultraman who always looks forward and forges ahead.
