Kazuki is forced to attack!
What secrets are held by the mysterious Jun? What is the Meta Field? How far will Nagi go to stop Ultraman, and why?

Watched episode 4 yesterday and was going to just watch 5 today. Then the cliffhanger was too interesting to wait a day.
So Komon is still totally there. Jabi's bitchiness is getting a little annoying, though. I still want to like her, but she really needs to get that sand out of her... hat. Let's go with hat. I did like the backstory on Jun in episode 6 - it was really tragic and I feel pretty bad for the guy (also, OOO totally stole this backstory for Eiji). Still really loving the show - the fights are way better than what I saw in the OG Ultraman (which I kinda want to try watching again now). I hope the Night Raiders are going to stop attacking him, though - I'm not a big fan of stories where the hero is unfairly attacked by people who should be his allies. |

The battle from episode 5 felt really awesome and what I've come to expect from Utlraman, but episode 4 seemed really boring and anticlimactic aside from the little tornado thing. I don't know why it just seemed, off. And just wow. Jun has a terribly tragic past. The poor guy seems to have been through a lot. It almost makes it seem ironic that he's Ultraman's host seeing as battle is what scarred him mentally and now he must fight. You totally called it man, OOO stole that backstory.

Agreed the bitchiness is getting ridiculous. The lengths she's going to, to kill Ultraman with only the flimsiest of back stories right now is killing me. I'm sorry but I continue to not see the appeal of Nagi's character or her actress for that matter. Is she like insanely hot or something in Garo? Because here she's playing the most standard asshole for the sake of being one character I've ever seen. She's taking things so far as to make her an un-relatable character.

Jabi is a vastly much more likeable character than Nagi.
I hope we get more into her backstory because I'm finding it really hard trying to like her.It is cool though that we're starting to see stuff from The Next.The guy in her flashback was totally The One,so I can't wait to see where they go with that. The fights in this show are really getting good.It bugs that Ultraman moves really slowly when he's fighting though.I'm sure it's to get across that he's big and powerful,but it's still weird.The tornado bit was really goofy for me,even for Toku standards. I really like how they're presenting Jun.Having us learn about the titular character through the main character is one thing that I really liked about stuff like the Skull Man anime.It kinda makes you feel like you're in the show,learning about the world as the characters learn about it.I'm also pretty into the foreshadowing narration that Komon has.If my subs from ep 1 are accurate he said him and Nagi are supposed to hook up at some point,how that happens is a mystery in and of itself. This show's definitely keeping me interested and I really didn't expect another Ultraman so soon.Next week looks like it's gonna be fun. |

It might not be the same exact The One,but it could be one that came to Earth earlier.I'm just referring it as The One because I don't know what else to call it.It had the twin spikes coming out its back just like Udo in The Next,I'm just thinking its the same species of Space Beast.

We're only six episodes in by this point. We'll definitely clear up the Nagi stuff soon enough.

TVN subs,maybe I got confused because he said it right after meeting Nagi.Actually I rewatched the clip as I typed this,was it Jun who was saying that?It was the first ep,so I couldn't really distinguish everyone's voices.
