Ultraman: Rising (2024) - Film vs. Concept Art
“The moment when Emi is born: what does it feel like to see life for the first time? Well, maybe it would feel like a nursery, with a moon and the stars hanging from the ceiling of a nursery.” — Shannon Tindle

Happy "Ultraman: Rising" launch weekend!! 💥
So, if you don't know, I'm a bit of a connoisseur of tokusatsu and I've been no spring chicken when it comes to Ultraman. It all started with me... as far back as 4Kids' lame and incomplete dub of "Ultraman Tiga". Yeah, I started there, but of course, from then and there onward, I've dipped my toes into more of the franchise's works. From R/B to even a classic dubbed version of the 1960s show from DVD sets I got from my aunt, I've done what I could to open my eyes to what Eiji Tsuburaya brought to the world of Japanese pop culture.
Now, on Friday this weekend, I decided to double up and watch "Shin Ultraman" and this new work. On one side, Shin was a simply incredible love song to Eiji's work prior, but in Rising's case? I wasn't prepared for how emotionally charged Rising's whole story would be and how impressive the whole effort would shine through. You don't even need to have any knowledge of the Tsuburaya franchise to watch this film, "Ultraman: Rising" is a super fun effort with a lovely cast, a strong theme of family and parenthood and topped off with incredible animation courtesy of Industrial Light and Magic.
So! With how much this film charmed me, I drew up Emi and Ultraman/Ken Sato after a bit of a turbulent two months IRL prior, as a means to get myself back on my art wagon... look, motive aside, it was Emi's idea, okay? 🤣

I just watched Ultraman Rising today and as someone who knows nothing about Ultraman, I can safely say it's a great movie for fans of animation, of kaiju, and of just watching a good movie
Check it out if you got the time

Ultraman Rising is not only the best case scenario so far for more western Ultra productions, but it's also more proof we need to let animation veterans cook with superhero movies.
