ULTRAMAN SERIES

(Syofuen/Archive of Tetsuo Kinjo)

Kinjo Tetsuo, famous for his scripts for Ultra Q, Ultraman, and Ultraseven, was born in Haebaru, Okinawa Prefecture. In his old birthplace, there is a traditional Japanese restaurant called “Syofuen” that was once Kinjo’s study room and now used as his museum (reservation is required in advance). Not only are there valuable documents, such as Kinjo’s hand-written scripts for the Ultra Series, but also photographs and autographs of related celebrities. This is the place where his classical special effect fans cannot miss.
