It was back in November of last year that I helped laud the news and Official Teaser trailer for the upcoming Netflix Animation feature “Ultraman: Rising”. With that being so long ago and with attention spans being what they are today, you can click HERE to refresh the memory because now its time to share the full on Official Trailer with you. As done before I’m once again sharing the basic premise, voice casting and some promotional artwork. Enjoy.

The Premise: Ken Sato, a famous but egotistical baseball player living a secret life as the giant superhero Ultraman, is forced to balance his career and hero duties while reluctantly adopting a baby kaiju after defeating her mother. (c/o Wiki)

PiercingMetal Thoughts: This looks like a whole lot of fun, but while I will watch this at some point after its debut on Netflix I should admit that I am not that up on the Ultraman franchise. The animation is cool but not my own favorite style of it as opposed to what I enjoy with the original “X-Men” and “Justice League” cartoons. What about you out there in the readership? Did you enjoy this trailer? Will you be marking your calendar for the films premiere on Netflix next month and maybe even inviting some other similar geek-minded friends over to enjoy it? Chime in down below in the comments section and I will see you again next time.
