Ultraman: Rising is a visually stunning animated film that breathes new life into the beloved franchise. I thoroughly enjoyed it, as the film combines spectacular action sequences with heartfelt storytelling.

The vibrant CG animation draws strong inspiration from the Spiderverse films, creating a dynamic visual style that captivated me. The characters are well-developed, particularly Ken, who serves as a relatable model for responsibility and forgiveness. I appreciated how the film balances humor and emotional depth, making it suitable for viewers of all ages.

While the pacing occasionally felt uneven, the overall narrative was engaging and kept me invested in the characters' journeys. The action scenes are exhilarating, showcasing Ultraman's iconic battles in a way that feels fresh and exciting.

Overall, Ultraman: Rising is a fantastic addition to the franchise that successfully combines family-friendly entertainment with sophistication. It left me feeling uplifted and eager for more adventures in this universe.
