What happens

Ultra Fight Victory (ウルトラファイトビクトリー, Urutora Faito Bikutorī) is a Japanese television miniseries and the 2nd entry in the Ultra Fight Series following Ultra Zero Fight produced by Tsuburaya Productions, aired during the ending segment of the New Ultraman Retsuden programming block on TV Tokyo. The official YouTube Channel of Tsuburaya Productions aired this miniseries legally with each episode that was uploaded to the Tsuburaya Productions YouTube Channel being deleted a week after their initial upload. It was available in regions that are currently region locked such as the United States. In promotion to the 2-part episodes 13 and 14 of Ultraman X, which features the crossover with the cast of Ultraman Ginga S, the Tsuburaya YouTube channel decided to re-aired a full episode instead of miniseries cuts, retaining the original subtitle. However, this video (like the first miniseries cut) was limited until it would be locked on October 24, 2015. A DVD release of the miniseries was sold online and pre-orders were available to be made on the Japanese site of Amazon.com until December 16, 2015. Currently a newly released English dub of Ultra Fight Victory is airing on Tsuburaya Productions's YouTube Channel. This new dub is a joint effort between William Winckler Productions and Tsuburaya Productions. The new president of Tsuburaya Productions stated that trying to introduce a foreign audience such as the West to Ultraman would prove to be quite difficult. It is not impossible as he stated that making a new Ultraman with homages to past Ultramans to appeal to foreign audiences is indeed possible. However, Ultra Fight Victory is not a new property. What seems to have occurred is that Tsubruaya Productions has drastically changed their plans to appeal to international audiences. This new English dub of Ultra Fight Victory is a new venture in Tsuburaya Productions's efforts to appeal to those who use online content and streaming platforms in foreign countries.
