Yeah, that's a great point too. The show definitely lacked the childlike sense of wonder and belief in humanity's future that most Ultra shows exemplify. I think having the Ultramen be giant-size would've made it a bit more palatable for me, though. That way even if it didn't
feel
like Ultraman, at least it would
look
more like it.
Also apologies if this has been shared before, but I'm digging the
Zett suit a bit more viewed at an angle just for that cool Slugger
. It definitely helps him stand out from being just another generic Ultra. Is Zett the first non-Red Ultra to have a Slugger? (Not counting forms like Emerium Slugger/Solid Burning, and I don't really count R/B's as "Sluggers" per se).
