The premise

Yapool, an ancient interdimensional race of beings tries to conquer the Planet Earth with his army of monsters, called Terrible-Monsters. The newest member of the Ultra Brothers, Ultraman Ace, arrives on Earth to aid humanity in the battle against Yapool. Touched by the sacrifices of Seiji Hokuto and Yuko Minami, he revives them and grants them the Ultra Rings, which allows them to transform into Ultraman Ace in times of need.

Horror Vault's take

An ancient interdimensional force known as Yapool unleashes a relentless army of bizarre and terrifying creatures upon the Earth, pushing humanity to the brink. Enter Ultraman Ace, the newest champion of the legendary Ultra Brothers, who bonds with two ordinary humans to stand against the onslaught. Each episode pits our heroes against increasingly grotesque monster designs as the stakes of Yapool's conquest grow ever higher. Classic tokusatsu spectacle blends monster mayhem with themes of courage and selflessness.
