This episode is the most I've enjoyed watching the STORAGE crew just being themselves and playing off each other!
I know this was partially a Bako-focused plot, but I thought the episode did a particularly nice job of showing off Hebikura in his element. So much of the show has been spent going "hehe, he's also that tricky Juggler doing cool alien things" that we kinda rarely see him just being a captain and interacting with the others like a normal person, so I appreciated getting to see more of exactly that. |

This episode was weird in a fun way. A lot of the moments just made me go "What??", especially with M1 dancing it off to the drums.
Tho, I have VERY MINOR gripe tho. Bako acted kinda weird in this episode. He hasn't seen his daughter in 3 years, so I kinda expected him to be a lot more happy when he saw her. Instead he was kinda "Eh." about it. And there wasn't an explanation why and was just quietly resolved with the end part. Just that. Otherwise, fun episode. -- Altho, I'd like to bring up another issue, that I personally don't have, but I do see often in the social medias. Yoko's constant losing. I've seen people take issue with this, especially now that she's in King Joe, but what are everyone's thoughts on this? I feel like this'll be fixed with Ultroid Zero, but it doesn't seem like Ultroid Zero is here for long. |

Yup, this episode was something alright
I enjoyed it, although I definitely prefer the more serious take on M1 from Ultraman X. Quote:

I think he feels guilty, feels that he doesn't deserve to be treated so lovingly by his daughter. He minimizes contact on purpose and is very shy about either getting to close or letting his daughter too much into his life, fearing he could fail her again. Quote:

Pretty unrelated to the episode, but I’ve learned how Z can use the Galaxy Rising medals that Geed gave him.

On the subject of Yoko losing constantly, I feel like that's something they can't really correct at this point. While she's gotten two good wins, a lot of the other time is her flailing around and getting beaten.
The issue is simple, STORAGE needed another pilot that wasn't Haruki and Yoko, because Haruki by principle has to usually win. Meanwhile that sort of just leaves Yoko at the spot of the one who loses. If we had another pilot that ended up going out and piloting the robots sometimes and losing, then it would be a bit less of an obvious issue given it's not just her that's failing, but the secondary pilot as well. That's one of my minor gripes with Z, but also here's another minor one if nothing really happens by the end of the series with it. Remember Devil Splinters? I sure don't. |

Alternatively, they could have written it so that she was actually fighting like an equal alongside Z more often than not, instead of just jobbing to threats before Z shows up...

So I noticed on the Bandai website that Ultraman Z Original is getting an Ultra Action Figure(pretty much the RKF of the Ultra series)next March. I wonder... whoever he will be facing in the last episode, could it be that he is gonna duke it out with the big baddie in his original form during the last episode?

Also, I hope they start showing what is Juggler's plan in all of this. Or will it be leading into another movie where Gai could potentially show up.

I think they're probably just releasing it as a bookend 'special' thing rather than it having a lot of final episode relevance. Neat that they're doing it, though! I was considering getting a Base Form Z but didn't wanna drop SHF money on it.

Tbh, Original Z always seemed weaker than Alpha Edge. It can be that the villain somehow separates Haruki from Z and they have to find a way to merge again since they are both stronger together.
