This 4K walking tour takes you through Soshigaya-Okura, a charming area in Tokyo known for its deep connection to the iconic Ultraman series. The neighborhood was home to Eiji Tsuburaya, the creator of Ultraman, and the headquarters of Tsuburaya Productions. As a tribute, an Ultraman statue stands in front of Soshigaya-Okura Station, and the local shopping street is famously named 'Ultraman Shopping Street' (ウルトラマン商店街).

The video begins by showcasing highlights before taking viewers past the Ultraman statue (00:36) and into the Ultraman Shopping Street (01:09), filled with nostalgic charm and references to the legendary Japanese superhero. Walking further, we see Maruyoshi Yokocho (まるよし横丁) at 04:28, an area featuring quaint shops and eateries.

At 31:22, the tour stops by Kinashi Cycle (木梨サイクル), the family home and shop of Noritake Kinashi from the comedy duo Tunnels. Later, viewers can enjoy the tree-lined beauty of Keyaki Road Soshigaya (けやきロード祖師谷) at 40:42, followed by a look at Soshigaya Housing (祖師谷住宅) at 44:42.

Delving deeper into the nightlife, the video explores a narrow alleyway lined with restaurants (01:30:35), showcasing the local dining scene. Fans of Ultraman will enjoy the sight of Ultraman flying above at 01:41:33, and the heartwarming moment featuring Kanegon and children at 01:43:00.
