"Use the Force, Shizuma." Followed by comedic timing from the opening.
I'd be lying if I said I was disappointed about this episode, but I still feel like we could have gotten more before leading up to this point. That said, this was a really good episode. I kind of like how Trigger is like an alternate world/sequel to Tiga, which I guess is similar to Dyna in that regard, but I still like it, though I almost thought they'd do something different with Shizuma, but this is good too. I do like how unlike Tiga, GUTS Select is already aware of the origins of Trigger and work to face the threat posed by the Giants of Darkness, and having their tech based off of the original GUTS is a nice detail. Really thought they would reveal Yuzare to Yuna later, but this worked pretty well, especially in (hopefully) developing the team dynamic in a new, interesting way. And although I loved seeing GUTS Wing and the references to Tiga, I still think this season wasn't pulled off the best it could be, but at least, it's still entertaining. I kind of want Trigger's final form weapon to be a gun... Next Week: Darrgon's favorite girl is one who can fight back, and probably can stun gun him to death. |

Maaan this one was good! They really got me going when they whipped out the GUTS Wing with the theme and everything. Coupled with the backstory I'm finally getting into this series being a Tiga anniversary show; it's finally doing it right

I knew that theme sounded familiar! That's a neat little detail. I only saw a bit of Tiga, so I don't remember much, but I don't think this series is doing a bad job. Still want to see how they stick the landing before I decide anything (maybe see Tiga as well).

I may just forgive Kengo for saying "Smile, Smile!" out loud so often.
I've had just about enough of that pilot and her falcon-chan |

I like her well enough - definitely better than Yuna - but like the rest she's very one-dimensional; I still don't feel like the GUTS-Select members are actually there. I hope we've got some focus episodes coming up, and we probably could have done with a couple of them before now

Trigger's really turned around over the past few weeks. We finally get some answers/backstory, and even a few character moments with the birthday party. Looks like the Guts-Select crew might have some stuff to say about Dargon next week, so hopefully they keep developing them. Very pleased with this episode overall.

Wow, Go-on Yellow guest-appearing in another show where her catchphrase is used.

Man, I really liked this episode. The whole bit with Shizuma and the GUTS Wing was cool as Hell. It was also probably the most effective a Defense Team Jet in an Ultraman show has ever been.
Next week: Dargon is in love with Yuna. It's ok, she's 18 now! Good news! He's apparently getting another sword! |

So, Tsuburaya are apparently showcasing the toys themselves now. Guess they don’t trust Bandai or the show to do it.
