Do you mean Andro Melos, the armored green guy? If so, then it's intentionally warming everyone up for his appearance in The Absolute Conspiracy! Supposedly, the Andro Melos series is NOT part of the deal with Mill Creek because Tsuburaya couldn't find the Masters (I assume this refers to the original film masters/production masters). Which episode of the voice drama is Melos mentioned in? Haven't been paying attention to it, but an Andro Melos reference might make it interesting. |

Nah that a different Melos.
This is Ultraman Melos And Ultrawomen Aura is Melos adopted daugther similar to how Ace was adopted by Father of Ultra. It was mentioned in the most recent voice drama

The fact that Melos is like mentioned...
The day he gets a live action suit is the day that so many Ultra Fans will combust. |

It was mentioned in the most recent voice drama https://youtu.be/B1pPbD5apJM_channel...SUBURAYA PROD. Didn't realize this guy existed. A unique thing about the Ultra Series is that there will always be something you aren't immediately aware of! You never stop learning. Was this Melos only in print form? |

For the most part yeah. He did however appear in the 2015 Animator Expo Ultraman short, which itself is based on the manga that Melos is from. https://youtu.be/u6ScS_v-FB0 Last edited by Byg42; 12-04-2020 at 11:45 PM.. |

Still feel like it should be Ultroid Z instead of Zero. Zero still fits, but why not go all the way with the evil-counterpart gimmick! Anyway, despite being an instrument of destruction and hubris... It's really cool!? I am part of the problem because I want to see him blow up more stuff...
At this stage, I suddenly started thinking that I kinda feel bad for Kaburagi, or rather his actor! At the beginning, he was the 'face' of Celebro, even got his own mechandise and transformation scenes. But then he almost never showed up, barely interacted with the cast, and now he's been completely phased out in favour of Wajima- I mean the Director. I guess it's fortunate that at least the Director could benefit from this, since he also rarely ever showed up in the show, so this new spotlight as the villain will make sure he leaves a lot more of an impression. I wouldn't be surprised if Celebro taking over him for the endgame was always the plan, but both he and Kaburagi were definitely severely underutilised before we got to this point.

Another great episode. Man, is Ultra always like this? Yoko's piloting of Ultroid Zero was a standout. Love the way it moves! The fight at the bay was also really well done; very impressive miniature work this week.
Can't wait to finally get some answers re:Juggler and Celebro next week. If they can stick the landing, this might end up as one of my all-time favorite toku shows. |

It varies.
Don't know what you've seen or not, but there isn't a single answer here! Take it this way: Ginga has been largely viewed as substandard at best, but its sequel Ginga S is leaps and jumps better! As for Z, some comments seem to suggest that it's underdeveloped and leans more on action rather than plot. I'll admit that some elements have felt underwhelming at times, but the characters are fun and likable. The action is always top-notch! I have to give it to Tsuburaya as their miniature city sets and landscape sets are far more detailed than what Toei does for Sentai. Will Z end on a high note? I'm thinking that it will. Most of the New Generation Ultras before Z have tried to end on strong notes. Curious where we are on a movie, as many series have a movie special which serves as an addendum; a bookend to truly bring things to a close of sorts. Will Z show on the big-screen? Are things even conducive for that right now? If a movie special is unlikely, will Z get something else to truly wrap it all up? |
