Started Ultraman Max, am currently on Episode 6. So far so good, never realized how much I loved Max as a design till now.

Some directors just want to watch the world burn.
I've actually come around a lot to Max's design myself over time. It's extremely slick and the gold bits add an appropriately regal flair for a guy whose name basically outright states he's cooler than all those other guys.

Ok, question. What series should I watch? So far I've only see Geed and Orb, I'm planning on watching Tiga, Nexus and Max

Something you need to remember though is that, unlike Orb and Geed, most Ultraman shows are very episodic as they tend to focus less on an actual story and more on how people react to the constant giant monster attacks and the effect it has on them. While there is a big bad sometimes, the monster attacks are usually due to a combination of nature and human carelessness. There are some shows with actual storylines, such as Nexus and Gaia, but you need to prepare yourself for show's like Tiga, which have more or less has no plot and almost every episode is stand alone.
That being said, I cannot recommend Mebius enough. That first episode man... |

While I don't think there's a wrong answer here, Mebius gets my highest recommendation too. Absolutely amazing series from start to finish, and it has an incredible grasp on the spirit of the franchise.
X is definitely one to get around to as well though, if you like the other newer shows. It's only like 20 episodes too, so I mean, why not, right?

So I am a quarter done with Ultraman Max, ended up watching 10 Episodes yesterday and I don't know, I am somehow really enjoying the episodic nature of this?
Like it's hard for me to sit through something like Sentai for whatever reason due to that also having very episodic plots. Yet with Ultraman it's easier somehow. I don't know if it's the characters, the way the Kaiju Battles are handled, but the Ultraman Episodic Formula is one that I thought I wouldn't get into. Yet I watched 10 Episodes in one day because each one interested me enough to want to watch more. I also like how 10 Episodes in and Max looks like he's shown off all of his stuff, aside from one thing I remember from Ultraman X. But I think it makes the battles a lot more interesting because he doesn't have to use different armors or forms, he has to think and use what he has in his arsenal to beat the monster. Also the Opening Song is pretty catchy, I also like how as it starts up you see the title for the episode during the Opening. |
