Forgive the Ultraman Tiga US dub reference, I just couldn’t help myself. Ultraman Geed is getting his own splendid S.H. Figuarts from the fine folks at Bandai Tamashii Nations. This model represents the title hero’s classic form, known as Ultraman Geed Primitive. The evil Ultra, Belial’s heroic offspring will stand proudly and take no guff […]
Aoyaki Takaiwa is trading in his deadly sword for a hero’s helmet in HE-LOW, the new independent tokusatsu film. After lighting up the screen as the villainous alien warrior Jugglus Juggler in Ultraman Orb and again, just to make certain you remember his name in Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga, he’s taking a decidedly less […]
It is confirmed that actor Hiroki Suzuki, best known to most fans as Juuken Sentai Gekiranger‘s Jan Kandou/GekiRed will make a guest appearance in Ultraman Geed.

Not only is it the most stylish, action-packed episode so far, it disperses story concerns that were mounting […]
Actor Kunito Watanabe who plays Ultraman Geed antagonist Kei Fukuide announced in his blog post dated September 12th that the series has wrapped up filming.
In the new Ultraman Geed, the young son of the nefarious Ultra villain Belial must rise up to save humanity from ultimate extinction. It’s the perfect launchpad for an epic entry into the tome of Ultraman stories, years in the making. With the pedigree on display here, you’d have no reason not to think this […]
The tokusatsu fandom is a fun bunch, but it can sometimes be a bit unforgiving when things don’t quite look or sound right to our eyes.
