The concept of an Ultraman moving his mouth is something that the franchise has tried a couple of times, the most notable examples I can think of is the Type A mask for the original Ultraman and Ultraman Zearth.

The idea of an Ultraman opening their mouth is an interesting idea in theory I suppose but I'm not exactly disappointed it hasn't really stuck. Their humanoid appearance and brightly colored eyes are more then enough for most people to project human emotions and feelings onto the Ultramen despite clearly being alien but a mouth, while certainly a welcomed addition when permanently closed, that always opened when they talk would shoot them straight into uncanny valley.
Its kind of understandable why they did something like that with Belial and Zearth though, since its kind of fitting their motifs, as well as Ultraman Mask Type A, since it was their first time. |

A little OT, but it's confirmed that Ultraman Geed's actor, Tatsuomi Hamada will be in the live action adaptation of ONE's Mob Psycho 100. To those who don't know ONE, he's the artist and creator of One Punch Man.

So decided to finally start watching Geed since I had basically seen everything Zero was in aside from that one Ginga Movie.
Anyway I watched up to Acro Smashers debut and holy heck, I love this main cast, their all likeable and they bounce off each other fairly well. Also nice to see a more mellowed out Zero, it's so interesting seeing the journey's he taken so far. Also his interactions with Leito as well as the actors performance is really great. That being said Zero may be mellowed out but dang it he's still got a bit of that hot blooded nature left in him. Also Belial, ooh boy, can't wait to see where things go with him, though considering all the excitement on my twitter feed, apparently he shows up this week. All the more reason to catch up faster. But yeah, poor Riku, his first two fights are with Skull Gomora, which is a combination of Red King and Gomora. Not exactly pushovers in the Ultraman Franchise, even if the former is a bit more comedic. Even then combined they make a nice Kaiju that's formidable. |

Its almost upon us... Edit: Well this was one hell of a family reunion. Things went from 1 to 100 in the blink of an eye. I didn't really know what was being said during the Belial/Geed and Zero fight so I was pretty horrified when I saw Belial absorb Geed and fly away with him. I can't wait to see what happens next week. Side note, interesting coincidence that, just after we got done talking about Ultras who open their mouths in another forum, Belial opens his in this episodes. Also, is it just me, or did Raiha's father kind of look like Narutaki from Decade? Last edited by macblo; 10-21-2017 at 01:47 AM.. |

Geed. I don't even.
Definitely looking forward to the conclusion next week.

There's a reason the nickname Bad Touch Belial gets tossed around a lot...
This episode takes that name and cranks it up to 11, that entire scene that the thumbnail is previewing in the video above, jeez that felt really uncomfortable. |

"Dad's gonna show you his love!" Daaamn. That whole scene with him and Geed was great.
So we just jumped straight into the endgame here. What the hell happens in the rest of this show?? |

I'm surprised Belial showing up came so soon in the series.
Man he really threw Geed down in the mud and just pounded on him. Pretty cool seeing them fight in a construction yard. I liked that Laiha got such a great scene of her fighting the alien in the building. It showcased her fighting skills. ...of course when the alien grew large from inside the building it probably should've killed them all in the collapsing rubble. Curious to see what will happen with Laiha's inner-star. |

Lets see, we've got four little stars. I'm sensing an Alpha/Beta capsule mix for Geed that gives him Royal Mega Master.
Either way, gosh I love some Laiha, particularly any time Chihiro Yamamoto gets time to show her moves. She's really quite the actor. There's not enough good things to say about this series. They pack so much in that gives every character time without it being too much or too little.
