Mill Creek Announces Ultraman Taro for Blu-Ray on Jan 12, 2021.

It seems like decades have passed since Mill Creek last released a Showa era Ultraman show, but in reality, it has only been a few months. Nevertheless, for some, the wait has been long. Well I've got some good news coming out of this dismal 2020. Mill Creek has announced they will be releasing the sixth Ultra series, Ultraman Taro on Blu-Ray on January 12, 2021.

By now you should know the drill as there will be a steelbook edition and a regular edition that continues the mural on the spine (as shown above). Like its brethren, Taro will contain all 53 episodes in Japanese with English subtitles spread across 6 discs. Here is the synopsis Mill Creek has listed on their website:

"Look to the Sky! Look to the Stars! Look to the Cosmos!

The Third Age of Monsters has begun. Severely injured during a Kaiju attack, championship boxer Kotaro Higashi is transported to the Land of Light in Nebula M78. There, his life is merged with that of a new young Ultra Hero. Returning to Earth, Kotaro joins the Space Science Defense Force called ZAT (Zariba of All Territory) to protect the Earth as the sixth Ultraman Brother… Ultraman Taro!"
