Production I.G and Sola Digital Arts will return to animate the second season. Directors Kenji Kamiyama and Shinji Aramaki will also reprise their roles for season 2. Season 1 of the Ultraman Netflix anime first aired on the streaming service in April 2019 and ran for a total of 13 episodes.
For those who are unfamiliar, here is a synopsis of the first season from MAL:
Fifty years ago, an extraterrestrial giant of light known as Ultraman saved the earth but vanished. Ultraman’s human host, Shin Hayata, was left with no memory of his time as a hero. Hayata’s young son, Shinjirou, is found to have been born with a more powerful and durable body than any normal human. The organization who aided Ultraman, the SSSP, reveals Hayata’s past to him. His father then dons a power suit again, assuming the role of Ultraman once more.
Prior to the release of season 2, you can catch up on the first season of the Ultraman anime on Netflix.
