I feel like Omega might have the record for most "straight into the action" episodes. Boy does the Rekiness Armor chop up Dugrid good!

It's rough being an Attack Team Captain when you have to deal with constant meetings as Earth grows to continue to weaponize itself to annihilate all Kaiju threats which, historically in this franchise, has NEVER turned out well. Though it was nice of Sorato to do an indirect show of support from Ultraman Omega.

I guess when you think about it Ayu is kind of the KSCT Vice-Captain? Or at least Uta's secondary. Which just made the boys kind of ditching her with no explanation kind of hurt.

Sorato thought he could avoid his past, though he was taken care of by a kindly old man on his first landing on Earth...and then he ends up getting his past thrown straight into his face.

Spot the iconic Kaiju sillhouette!

Would you want to live in a universe that inevitably runs on an inevitable civilization vs Kaiju survival of the fittest slugfest every millennia? The Gnessians were just an advanced civilization that thought they could control Kaiju, made Kaiju worse (naturally), and then proceeded to head to the stars for a new home...and become an alien invasion force in the process.

Omega is not part of the Space Garrison but the Star Gazers, a group of Ultra beings who monitor planets through their life cycle and protect them from invading space threats and ONLY space threats. They're not meant to fight their battles on the actual planet like Omega has been doing with resurfacing Kaiju.

And there's the rub for Ahden. He was a man who advocated for peace, he didn't want to invade Earth, he understood why the Star Gazers did what they did...but he just could not accept the idea of one of them, Ultraman Omega, breaking his vow and fighting to protect a planet unlike what happened to Ahden's. So his last will was to sick Taganular on Omega as a small form of revenge.

Sorato seemed to transform into a different person for a second there. And then there was Omega's rage out moment at having his truth throw into his face. I feel like it's only going to get worse from here.

Looks like we are entering the endgame of Omega. There were a lot of reveals this episode, debating what I think of them for now.

I am once again finding myself wondering why they introduced the KSCT part of the show when it seems to actively get in the way of the story they want to tell at times. Sorry Ayu, the boys have to run off to hear Omega lore! I also thing it would have been more interesting to approach the whole "there is a international anti-kaiju force being created" from the perspective of outsiders. Would have been fresh. Aaaanyways, besides that we learn that Ultras are apparently supposed to be rather passive in this universe and not interfere with what happens on a planet, but Sorato just forgot what with his amnesia and all. This IS a pretty fresh concept which I rather like. It also turns out that Ultraman Omega has a setting somewhat reminiscent of the Godzilla animated film trilogy, with kaiju awakening on planets as if to challenge the superiority of the dominant species there. So it seems Sorato will now have to choose between his loyalty to the friends he made on Earth and his duty as a Space Gazer, while also considering that getting involved in battling the kaiju could make the situation escalate out of control. I'm hoping the ending has something unexpected happen, because right now I am getting the impression this is going to be very reminiscent of Arc for the finale.
