Regarding this announcement, we were completely unaware of their production, and the picture was made without our authorization or supervision. Also, the use various Ultraman characters and footage in this presentation/trailer seriously damages the Ultraman brand, so these actions should be resolutely condemned, and likewise deemed as absolutely unacceptable.

Regardless, in each and every judgment, so far, we have been persistently declared the legitimate producers of the Ultraman series, and holders of all respective copyrights, therein.

Furthermore, all associated rights to create new productions, such as this aforementioned [Chinese] production, or any modification or adaptation of the Ultraman Series Characters, new or existing, still belongs solely to our company.

Based on the above, we intend to take decisive measures, including vigorous legal action, against the Chinese companies who willfully participated in and made this presentation trailer, and additionally, all parties involved in the production of the picture, itself.

Huh.

Fuck it then.

Chaiyo is desperate. If I were a judge on the case I'd rule against them for the simple fact that they waited until Noboru Tsuburaya was dead to claim they had rights to the IP. How convenient of them.

Is this what that one ultraman movie trailer a few years back was for?

>>15704498
