Streaming Limitations[]
An unusual case considering previous years, Tsuburaya Productions blocks most countries outside Asia from viewing the series via their official YouTube channel, and the series is not simulcasted on Crunchyroll either. However, the series is simulcasted in China. On various social media platforms and their own website, Tsuburaya Productions has stated that there will soon be new information regarding the viewing of Ultraman R/B for countries outside Asia.[2]
Trivia[]
- This is the final live-action entry in the Ultraman Series to have a full televised run in the Heisei era, due to Emperor Akihito (Emperor Heisei) stepping down as the incumbent Emperor of Japan and being replaced by his son, Prince Naruhito, marking the rise of Japan's Reiwa era.
- This is the first series to introduce two Ultras in episode 1 of the series, instead of adding in another Ultra later on.
- Koichi Sakamoto stated that if he was participating as a director, he would have made Ultraman Leo and Astra appear in this series (Although he stated that bringing Astra to a battle could be difficult). He also commented on planning to create "Ultraman R/B Fight" series if he has a chance.[3]
- This series was originally intended to be named Ultraman Z, and to feature only one titular Ultra Warrior.[4][5] The name was later recycled for a later entry in the Ultraman Series.
