Ultraman Street in Setagaya, Tokyo


Shoowatch! Ultraman takes flight on Ultraman Street.

Down the road from Toho Studios in Setagaya, Tokyo, is what promises to be a major tourist destination for kaiju eiga fans. Ultraman Street truly lives up to its name with decor straight from M78!


G-TOUR II members photograph the entrance to Ultraman Street.

Like most kaiju-related sights worth seeing in Japan, Ultraman Street isn't well-known in the West. But, unlike this building or that bridge featured in the background of a monster movie, Ultraman Street is a must-see attraction for G-fans visiting Tokyo.


Are street lights this cool in your neighborhood?


Ultraman Street is a walk down memory lane for kaiju enthusiasts!


Look out! Baltan Seijin wreaks havoc in Ultraman Street!


It's not just the CBC Building in Nagoya; Ultraman Street has its own Ultraman statue!


Worth the trip itself: How come kaiju fans who tour Japan don't know about Ultraman Street?

A picture is worth a thousand words, but there's video, too! Here's a look at Ultraman Street, featuring G-FAN regulars J.D. Lees and Skip Peel. Enjoy!
