Hello everyone~! This is Saori from Tokusatsu Republic!

Today! Since Episode 1 has finally started broadcasting, let's check it out right away! He doesn't have much aptitude as a warrior, but he certainly has the qualities of a hero! Such is the story of a new era's Ultraman!

To explain a super rough summary of Episode 1 and the work Ultraman Teo... One day, a certain planet is destroyed by a space kaiju. Ultraman Teo, who escaped from that planet and survived, moved to Earth where humans live, transformed into a human form, and spent a peaceful time. However, one day a strange meteorite approached Earth. Amazingly, the space kaiju that destroyed his homeland appeared before Teo again, as if it had chased him down...!

A major characteristic of Ultraman Teo is that Teo himself doesn't have that much combat ability! Despite being an Ultraman, Teo was an existence almost like an ordinary citizen in his homeland. He is also very unused to combat scenes, and fans have even mentioned, 'It's the first time I've seen an Ultraman shoot such a fresh and unsteady beam...'

While escaping to Earth and wanting to live peacefully, every day he is bewildered by the unfamiliar human culture and its misunderstandings... Even so, his personality is gentle, and his feelings of loving animals, humans, and neighbors other than himself are genuine. When facing the kaiju that destroyed his homeland again, rather than thinking he must escape, Teo thinks 'I must protect the people living on Earth!' Although his abilities as a warrior are still a long way off, he perfectly possesses the qualities of a hero! Even if he is lonely now, I hope that someday his surroundings will be filled with people who understand him, and many smiles can be seen... He was depicted as such a protagonist that makes you strongly wish for his happiness!
