Links to official sites selling the games are on the channel’s description with a link for each game and console.
Though Ultraman has never battled it out with a giant female zombie, we are still hoping this skit by Joren Rivas Selda and Marinelle Santiago of Team Sinag Cosplay inspire such a storyline.

When Anime from Manga is converted to Tokusatsu (yes, live action is Tokusatsu), you know the genre is exploding!
Netflix recently dropped their Ghost Fighter or Yuyu Hakusho trailer. Click here to watch: https://youtu.be/GMi-DDJtExs?si=L4-jd7H4Wuj7VkiA
2024 is definitely going to be huge for the Tokusatsu community 🙌🏼

TOKUSATSU IS FLOODING NETFLIX!
First recent drop: Ultraman Rising
Watch here: https://youtu.be/PUugZiI1xkI?si=zR97l_g_L-7bBnef
Kinda cool that the demand for Tsuburaya’s Ultraman has made the company partner with Netflix in creating a more westernized version of the most popular tokusatsu franchise of all time!
Featured here are our local Ultraman cosplayers, Sharivan Spark RX and Joren Rivas Selda. These bad boys were captured by Nikoshinn before their Team Sinag Cosplay skit at MTC 2023.
We hear that their skit was so good, Masahiro Inoue stepped out of the foreign artist rest area to watch.
To those who have a copy of the epic skit, please share in the comments or send us a DM 🙌🏼

For band performances, you can catch SKYGARDEN, as well as the online Battle of the Bands winners Asian College Dropouts and Yomari.
Virtual talents Jacki3, Gemi9, and Ru VII of RE:NEGADE are also joining the lineup with a special performance.
And if you're in it for the night club experience, DJ performances by NICDROID, SIGRID and BANDIT as well as AniKura staples DJ Zeroblade and SIGLUS will bring the energy with their electronic music!
If you are a Japanese pop culture enthusiast, there is definitely something out there in JAPANIGHT+ that caters to your interest. It's also an avenue for you to enjoy other kinds of music within the Japanese pop culture sphere.
You can get tickets to JAPANIGHT+ through the link in the comments! You can also get discounts for walk-in tickets if you are a ticketholder for the Rakrakan Festival as well as if you still have your tyveks from ESGS!
Do note that the event is 18+.
