Another good episode with Haruki. Though, his transformation sequences seem a little off, but oh well.
I might be lacking info since I was doing some other stuff, but why was the captain just staring blankly the whole episode. Also, wow, only now does Yuna ask about Yuzare and not the other times she weirdly fell unconscious. Last edited by TheRaizin; 09-10-2021 at 08:02 PM.. |

I cannot watched today's episode of Ultraman Trigger live online today because TV Tokyo has technical difficulties. Hope and pray nothing will go wrong on Youtube's Tsuburaya Channel.

Another great episode. The team gets important stuff to do and we're making progress on the Yuzare story. Next week seems like it'll be a good one.

Oh yeah, I'm half leaning into the idea that Yuna's dad is/was Tiga. Idk, seems like a thing they do, especially with showing the what I think is the GUTS wing.

I forget this is set in a futuristic Japan setting in-spite of the Mars colonization until we see aliens taking over the hi-tech phones and VR goggles. The consequence of a technologically advanced society dealing with a digital monster.
It's pretty fun when two Ultras get to compare what it's like, down to what it feels like to fly and what the timer blinking actually feels like. Kengo even gets in an "Ossu" along with Haruki. Akito a tsundere to the bitter end. Ignis really does just live there now. Highlights was him freaking out over losing an ultra-rare gacha, messing with everybody, having a handy-dandy extension chord, and just riding a segway in the background. I was wondering why the captain was staying in place the whole time while Teppei was fighting Dada and it turns out he was there to fire the canon at the exact right time. Nagase regaining control through an 8-bit game. Z can finally use his other forms and he and Trigger get to go through Multi Type/Alpha Edge. Power Type (which finally gets proper screentime)/Beta Smash, Gamma Future, and Delta Rise Claw/Sky Type. We also see Trigger do a split-second form change back to Multi Type. Sorry King Joe, but someone needed to take a dual Ultra Beam to make this a proper team-up episode. I did love seeing the two Ultramen try to clean up. So Beliarok could have taken Haruki back the whole time but is only mentioning it now that he's bored. Classic Beliarok. Since the Z Riser is still there for repairs, as far as I'm aware, I'm guessing Haruki and Z will come back later down the line. Yuna addressing the Yuzare issue sooner than I was expecting, but glad we're getting that piece of background out of the way. |

Was that a Gridman reference!?
Okay, once again, Haruki and Z steal the show, though seeing Ignis messing with the GUTS Select crew while the captain remains cool under pressure was pretty funny. Shame, we're not getting any focus on them for probably until the second half. Nice detail on Haruki glancing at Kengo during the double transformation to avoid a repeat of the first time he used the Sparklence. Hearing Alpha Edge's theme again was so nostalgic, and Trigger's orchestral opening was, like the first time they used it, amazing. Kind of hoped King Joe wouldn't get destroyed, but looks like it's still salvageable. Also, kind of figured Beliarok was the key to returning Haruki home, but still loved the exchange. I'm reminded of that one meme from Ultraman Neos (Which I've yet to see) when they were cleaning up. Looks like Yuna's now aware she's important to the plot and the plot thickens. (If anyone decides to take this out of context, I hope Bizarro Dada pays you a visit) Next Week: Instead of giving spotlight on any of the other characters, we're bringing you the Guts Wing, and the chairman, who's probably a dimension travelling gentleman.

I mean, senpai's gotta senpai, amiright?
You know, flex once in a while to remind little kohai over at the corner that they didn't just get to where they are easily. Of course, with Z it kind of was easy cause the show was just that good.

Honestly, these two episodes did nothing for me. Or the plot, for that matter. When Zero appeared in Taiga, it was because he was pursuing the presence of the Belial clone and he left behind the Plasma Zero-Let for use in the finale. When Geed showed up in Z, it was because he was chasing down the Devil’s Splinters to give Kaburagi what he needed to create a Belial medal that played a major role in the rest of the show. Z’s appearance here… save for the scene where Yuna gets suspicious (which could’ve come in ANY episode), these two offer no real narrative reason for Z to show up and nothing happened as a result of his presence (beyond Trigger’s ultimate form being U-09 rather than U-04, which is more annoying than anything).
But I do think Trigger’s equipment voice fits Z’s transformations better than his own and Haruki’s acting has improved. |

Wait, goddamn you're right. Now that's odd. I mean, maybe the Z-Riser being left behind and King Joe's presence may give GUTS-SELECT may lead to something, but it was pretty much a standard MOTW episode.

These were fun episodes! So they did the plot I thought they'd do in Z with having to fight a King Joe under bad guy control. Hey, gotta get your moneys worth out of those suits.
Akito being stuck between Kengo and Haruki talking about Ultraman Things was great. He's so mad. Ignis seemingly being no threat at all has made GUTS-Select not really give a shit that he keeps hanging around on their ship. Again it was nice to see the crew doing stuff. Cool that they used the Powered version of Dada and kept the computer virus thing that the original had. But I wish we got to see him do more. Did they actually beat Dada? I feel like that got kind of glossed over. Akito is tsundere as Hell. |
