Just finished the episode of Kuuga with -that- scene. The one where he goes absolutely goddamn feral on a single Grongi.
And...
damn
.
I mean the setup isn't exactly uncommon. The hero sees the cost of their enemies' destruction in a way that hits closer to home than before and that causes them to be a lot more violent in their next battle. It's a pretty common trope, and in the things I've seen it in it's usually done well.
But something about this felt even more... holy heck. It was
so
violent and brutal. Maybe it's because of how Godai is of course usually portrayed as the loveliest kindest person; maybe it's because he didn't need to do half the shit he did to that Grongi, maybe it's the screams, maybe it's the contrast with the Kuuga mark written in blood; or just how this 2-parter in particular was extremely effective at creating a horror environment (yeah, aside this scene? God what a good 2-parter; that scene of the Grongi utilising psychological warfare on a family within their own home in particular is just terrifying). But something about this scene was... wow. Don't think I'll be forgetting this one any time soon.
Also in hindsight because I have a general idea of what Ultimate is and when it's used? Seeing a glimpse of it this early just made this scene even more scary.
