The Japanese edition of DeNA's free Manga Box smartphone and tablet app will publish the first chapter of a comedy manga spinoff of the Ultraman tokusatsu (special-effects) series on Thursday. Televison writer Mitsuyoshi Takasu and "masked manga artist" Eri Terada will create the series, titled Ultra Tsurai ze (That's Ultra Painful!).
The story is a "documentary" that is set in The Ultraman world and follows young men who want to be popular like Ultraman and win over girls.
