I'm just going to post my thoughts on UltraMan X here rather than in the other thread. Also if anyone torrents, you can find this on Nyaatorrents.
UltraMan X Episode 1: Well this was pretty good. I like the Spark Dolls being used again because I like them in Ginga and they are used pretty good here as a part of the story. I love the armor of the Xio suits that's cool. I like how they are working on trying to create replicates of the Monsters to fight them even if they didn't get it right it was interesting that they were close. Daichi is a fun main character and it's intriguing that X himself is interacting with him because the last few UltraMen series I've watched the UltraMan never really spoke to the host. X and Daichi's chemistry is very fun reminds a lot of Shinnosuke and Mr. Belt and that might be what they were going for. Also Daichi being afraid of heights and looking down when he transformed for the first time was priceless, it was one of the most hilarious moments of this episode. The main team of Xio seem like interesting characters so far; Asuna is pretty kickass the female lead. The fight scenes were awesome I love the action from UltraMan in general and the Digital/Tron/Computerized effects of the blasts, the inside of X, and powering up X just looks amazing visually. This episode was really solid for me. I can't wait for more and I'm happy to be watching the newest UltraMan now too!

I watched the first episode of Ultraman X and now I remember why I stopped watched Ginga: The gimmicks are just too stupid. I don't know why since it's rarely bothering me in Rider, but the whole thing with the dolls and cards seems awfully cheesy in Ultraman.
Honestly I think this would work much better if they ditch this stuff and have it classy again, just a guy fusing with an Ultra and transforming into Ultraman. But toy-sales is what keeps these shows going, so... Also I wasn’t too impressed with the actors, especially the younger ones. Kaiju-wise this was top-notch, I loved the battle at the end and the pose for the Ultra-beam. But that was about the only thing I enjoyed. |

Can't wait until the week is over so that free users can watch it. I'm even tempted to pay premium.

It's such a pain having to wait a week. Maybe I should get Premium.

I have never been more tempted to get premium than for X. It's just with my sucky internet, and present subscriptions, I don't think I can justify paying for it yet. But boy, have I never been more tempted.

Watched the first episode of Ultraman X just yesterday. I really wish they'd just drop the Spark Doll gimmick already, but it was otherwise quite enjoyable.
Possibly my favorite bit from the first episode is when we see what everything looks like from an Ultra's perspective. Pretty cool stuff. |

No subtitles, but Tsuburaya put the first episode of Ultraman X on their Youtube channel:
Make sure you watch it on Crunchyroll as well though! |

Saw this not sure if it's for a movie or not but it looked pretty cool.
