Today’s Ultra Trivia:
In the world of Side Earth (Ultraman Geed’s world), Explosive Chronicler Don-Shine is a 52 episode superhero show originally aired before Geed’s time that made a resurgence in popularity. In the past it was impossible to find episodes of the show and only VHS releases of its compilation movies were available at the time. Some time later, DVD releases of the show managed to surface. However it was when they released the entire show online via streaming that has brought the public’s attention on Don-Shine and regained popularity, which resulted in gaining brand new fans of the show and the production of more Don-Shine goods and merchandise in the process.
In episode 3 of Ultraman Geed, there is even a video advertisement announcing HD Remasters of Don-Shine in D-VHS, a video format that is now defunct in our world since the mid-2000s.

Today’s Ultra Trivia:
The man in Ultraman Taiga episode 6 “The Flying Saucer Did Not Come” credited as “The Man Who Wishes To Return to The Stars” is portrayed by Hiroyuki Takano. But back when he was a child actor, Takano had also appeared in the 45th episode of Ultraseven (1967) “The Flying Saucer Has Come”, playing the role of a young boy (the human disguise of Alien Perolynga) luring Saburo into his trap.
This episode of Taiga also pays tribute to episode 45 of Ultraseven, with Takano reuniting with his alien alter ego for the first time in more than 50 years.
