What happens

Ultraman Neos (ウルトラマンネオス, Urutoraman Neosu) is a Japanese tokusatsu series, being the eleventh entry (fifteenth overall) in the Ultra Series. Produced by Tsuburaya Productions, Ultraman Neos was initially intended as a TV series but the project was shelved. Years later, Tsuburaya turned the concept into a 12-episode direct-to-video series. In spite of the appearance of similar designs and a cameo by Zoffy, the series is set in an alternate universe. Toku premiered the series in the United States with English subtitles on May 1, 2017. On Friday, September 29 the entire series was made available for viewing on Verizon's go90. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
