You know, I was just thinking that it was getting pretty late in the year to still not be hearing anything about this year's Ultraman.
It definitely looks like an Ultraman show. Transformation roleplay toy out here making R/B's look compact and streamlined. Maybe seeing a bit of Gaia in the colors and head design? |

Omgggg, I absolutely love the design for Arc!
The showa vibes in the trailer were wonderful, and the "shuwatch" really hit! I got unreasonbly excited about it lol The combo of Tsujimoto and Tsugita also has me very excited! Tsugita has been a fave writer of mine since his episode of Z, and his episodes since have just cemented that more and more. I'm so excited to see what he does as full head writer ^^ Very curious if that's a lights-&-sounds gimmick we're looking at there! If it has lights that would be the first time a base form ultra gimmick has had lights in it ever! So that would be very cool to see! o: |

Wow.
So, first impressions: The logo shot at the end is very Showa-like Love the suit design, I love the primarily red and silver coloring with a bit of black on the neck area, a nice attempt at Showa-era aesthetics with a modern touch I like the cube item Right? Oh, the fin and color scheme does give off that vibe now that you mention it.

Kind of giving me RoU/Jack vibes mixed in with Taiga/Orb (because the protagonist is an investigator).
A rubix cube transformation device is definitely novel. I wonder if they bring back transformation fields. Will there be form changes or different cubes/different powers? Did I spot Black King? |

So the horn that they are talking about fell on a mountain called Shishioyama. Shishio supposedly means lion's tail, sooooo Ultraman Leo reference perhaps? I mean, he doesn't seem like the close combat type based on the trailer, but maybe Leo shows up late in the show to be the one who gives Yuma a few words of wisdom and delivers him his power-up?

Ooooo yes, I've been wanting to see Tsujimoto as lead director for some time now, he's directed some really great stuff for the past few ultra shows. Tsugita has also done some good work so interested in seeing him be part of the lead creative team

I enjoy like "ultra space" sorta stuff when it's for stuff like in X and Z, or just to give us insight into the host or ultra's thoughts. A lot of shows use it in very interesting ways. So overall I would like to see them return, but I also would rather see them be dialled back a bit compared to some shows, and only used when they add smth to the show by being there Tbh while Blazar dropped a lot of more modern tropes, and i think that worked out for it well, Blazar did things bc they worked for blazar... So i hope show-runners going forward make decisions based on what works best for their show rather than just avoiding existing tropes just for the sake of avoiding them (if that makes sense) |

I'm liking the look of the suit, wasn't expecting him to look so traditional for a lack of a better word, but I'm cool with it. But honestly, I'm not feeling the changers so far but it might grow on me the more I see it.
