Tsuburaya Launches Stay At Home With Ultraman Initiative

​Tsuburaya has launched a new initiative called "Stay At Home With Ultraman", in which they'll support fans who are currently staying indoors due to COVID-19. 

That being said, starting on May 3rd, they will launch Ultra Science Fiction Hour, a joint collaboration with the Ultraman Foundation in which they will show a curated episode for the next 10 weeks that express a message they want to send to the fans. These episodes will be available at Tsuburaya's official Ultraman YouTube channel and these episodes will be available until the end of next month, with the final episode being available until the end of July.

The episodes will premiere every Sunday at 10am JST and are subtitled in English. You can participate in the chat as the episode premieres or participate in social media using the hashtags #UltraScienceFantasyHour or #ウルトラ空想科学時間.
