Kiwami, I can't keep being your mirror universe counterpart if our opinions on Ultraman are going to line up so much. :lol
I never minded Spark Dolls in Ginga, but I think it was pushing it keeping them around during X. The "clearly just a vinyl toy" look is more problematic in a show with an actual budget. Still, I have to admit, from a marketing perspective, they were genius. |
Ginga S Episode 02: Yup, I really like this. I'm glad I finally gave Ginga a chance.

I just got done finally watching the Geed movie and believe it or not, I really liked it. What a twist, right? :p
I'm not totally sure how I'd say it stacks up against other Ultra films, but of all the post-series movies we've been getting since Ginga S, it probably has the strongest story. There's a pretty well executed character arc for Riku here, even though a movie like this could've totally gotten away with being a shallow excuse for some fun action, and the writing overall is tight. Managing to make a climactic speech where everyone takes turns quoting Geed's catchphrases, in order, come off as natural is an especially impressive feat. In contrast, not a lot of the action stuck out to me, but it needs to be said that when the standards are set so high for Ultraman's production values to begin with, that's nothing to be ashamed of. The fight scenes still look utterly gorgeous, and with Sakamoto directing, you'd better believe there are some epic explosions in there. |
Finished Ultraman Ginga S. I liked it. But I already said that, right?
Anyways, instead of just saying how good everything was I want to point out one episode in particular: Episode 11, "The Tears of Gan-Q". Man what a fantastic piece of Toku. So absurd, so emotional, so awesome. I don’t want to spoil the fun for anyone who hasn’t watched this show yet but this one made me very happy. Bottom line: I'm glad I finally gave Ginga and Ginga S a chance, I liked them both. Now I will finish R/B - and man, the main protagonists taking their powers from Ginga and Taro makes a whole lot more sense already :lol |

But I can safely say all of those are worth watching. Since they aren’t too long, you can probably just causally watch through them. |
Yeah, all of the New Generation (Ginga onwards) isn't too bad. They're each about 25 episodes, and apart from Ginga before Ginga S (and probably Orb before R/B) could probably jump around all you want.
Speaking of which, I should really watch an older series; I've done everything Ginga forwards but somehow nothing before. |

What is the meaning behind "New Generation"? My earlier intent was to see which Ultra series are considered the "Best of the Best", not unlike a poll which notes fan-favorite Sentai or Riders. Not hard to find one of them! |
I'm no good at organizing lists myself but if FerrousMaelstrom wants to see an older show and TokuKnight89 wants to see top tier Ultraman, Mebius gets my vote in either case. It's 50 episodes of pure joy.
