Tsuburaya is really embracing internet distribution, which is truly heartening to see. I'm beyond impressed.

First episode of X is wow! I've always admired Tsuburaya's toku effects, and X is no exception. The scale of the monster is realistically intense, and the fight was heart-pounding. Tsuburaya continues to do possibly the best giant monsters on TV!

Okay, so my cheap, anime-indifferent ass finally got to see this on Crunchyroll. I freaking loved it. This feels exactly like a proper Ultraman show - in fact, it reminds me a lot of Max, which is very much a good thing. It's a real pity that this is just a miniseries and not a full show.
The only thing I'm not really feeling is the inclusion of the Spark Dolls, which still look incredibly cheap. X looks amazing, though, and I like that he has a voice and can communicate with Daichi. I'm used to the Ultra either posing as a human or being a mute giant. It's pretty cool to see a third option. |

And yes, the angle they went for X and Daichi is very welcome, I'm glad each of them have a proper personality instead of one overriding the other. |

UltraMan X Episode 2: I love the alien Doctor that was introduced in this episode he's a whole lot of fun. This kind of reminds me of Go-Busters merged with UltraMan from the aesthetic of it. Also the three colored vehicles too; I love that they are named after the Three Musketeers. Daichi and X are such a fun pairing, X having his own personality really makes a different here, lol watching Ginga at the same time as this I'm like X is Taro's son right? lol He reminds me of him. Daichi's fear of heights is so much fun too. I also loved when Daichi used the Card to power them up and X was like wait what are you doing? So much fun. I also like the moral thoughts this brings up like is it right to kill the monster even with it's egg and how the aliens might have their own goals and they might not be as heroic as they think they are. Honestly this series is really good right now and I can't wait for more.

Episode 2 was another really good episode. But man, Birdon is a dorky looking thing.

Ok, only seen Ginga in terms of other Ultra series and only the first episode of this so far but I'm liking it. The two of them communicating is a nice dynamic and the show seems pretty cool thus far.
