Soshigaya-Okura, located in Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, is known as the "Ultraman Town." The "Ultraman Shopping Street" was established in 2005, as the headquarters of Tsuburaya Productions, the creator of Ultraman, was once located here. A huge Ultraman monument stands in the square in front of Soshigaya-Okura Station on the Odakyu Line, and the street lamps in the shopping street are designed with characters such as Ultraman, Ultra Seven, and Baltan. It is a special place that is exciting not only for Ultraman fans, but also for tourists who are interested in Japanese special effects culture.

[Trivia]
Tsuburaya Productions was founded in Soshigaya-Okura in 1963. The god of special effects, Eiji Tsuburaya, set up his office here, which is why Ultraman Town was born. The street lamps in the shopping street not only have Ultraman designs, but also rare Ultra Seven and Baltan designs. Look carefully.
