Netflix's Ultraman Shares New Poster for Final Season

By Nick Valdez

Ultraman's debut anime series will be coming back to Netflix for its third and final season next year, and it has released an intense new poster to help hype up its big comeback! Alongside the release of the second season earlier this year, Netflix quickly confirmed that the anime adaptation for Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi's original manga series (which was already a sequel to Tsuburaya Productions' original Ultraman Tokusatsu franchise) would be coming back for a third season. But the biggest different between the third season announcement and the previous was that this was also confirmed to be the last season for the series overall.

Dubbed Ultraman: Final, the third and final season of the series was previously scheduled for a release some time next year. The newest update with this new poster reveals that the new season will be hitting Netflix in the Spring 2023 season, but unfortunately has yet to reveal a more concrete date. Like the initial announcement teaser trailer and poster for the new season, this poster is just as intense as the others and you can get a look at it for yourself below as released by Netflix: 

While potential returning cast or new additions have yet to be revealed, the staff from the first two seasons are confirmed to return. Kenji Kamiyama and Shinji Aramaki are returning to direct the third and final season for Production I.G and Sola Digital Arts while Nobuko Toda and Kazuma Jinnouchi are returning to compose the music. If you wanted to catch up with the series before the new season hits next year, you can find Ultraman's first two seasons streaming with Netflix. 

Netflix teases Ultraman as such, "Several years have passed since the events of Ultraman, with the legendary 'Giant of Light' now a memory, as it is believed he returned home after fighting the many giant aliens that invaded the Earth. Shin Hayata's son Shinjiro seems to possess a strange ability, and it is this ability, along with his father's revelation that he was Ultraman, that leads Shinjiro to battle the new aliens invading the Earth as the new Ultraman."

Netflix also has a new animated Ultraman movie project in the works too, so what are you excited to see from Ultraman's anime future in this final season?
