Plot
A baseball superstar named Ken Sato returns to Tokyo just as a fresh round of monster assaults begins in Ultraman: Rising. Carrying on his father’s legacy, he assumes the role of Ultraman. Becoming the adoptive father of a newborn kaiju is one of many obstacles that Ken must overcome.
Mastering his new abilities is a crucial part of Ken Sato’s journey as Ultraman. With every creature he encounters, he fights against his self-doubt. Managing several obligations may be satisfying, and he learns to ask friends for aid when he needs it.
In Ken’s narrative, there is a mysterious danger that seeks to take advantage of the baby kaiju. Dr Onda’s private army, which Ultraman encounters, is out to capture the child and would stop at nothing to do it, including sending armed planes into crowded urban areas. From other monsters to a gigantic mech carrying a sword, Ken and the infant kaiju can overcome their formidable foes because of their special link.
