Will the next season after Blazar be a “New Gen Gaia”?
It would be nice to have another Ultrawoman join that season too. |

Kaiju or Hero?

I think we all knew there was something fishy about that old man, but now...
Well first, Brood Gebalga! Just give Gebalga some extra heads and make him bigger and he's honestly pretty terrifying. He can start a pandemic and hack everything! Also taking out Blazar and his sword like they're nothing was certainly surprising, since usually you get to see the Hero do a little bit more before getting trounced, especially after that cool rise sequence with the sword. I figured Papa Aobe wasn't all there when he refused to really elaborate, and that the date would be some kind of clue. Curious about Firdan hanging out in that facility and why Papa Aobe (his apparition anyway) were at such a crucial moment... Now! Blazar's new form... I like it a lot! The obvious thing for an upgrade for Blazar would be something more complete and symmetrical, but this? *Chef's Kiss* Reminds me of Ryusoulger and I love it! This season really does enjoy doing things non traditionally and I'm all for it. Back to the opening statement, removes Retsu from the picture and robs Emi, I'm wondering if with all that wormhole research, are they responsible for the Space Kaiju? Since they're acting pretty shady about all of this... Next Episode: "Welcome to the Underground! Also, say hi to your dad for me!"

Happy Birthday Emi! Maybe your dad got your birthday confused with his intellectual idol, but at least he had the right picture of you as a baby!
Every time Retsu visits SKaRD HQ he's just complaining about their performance, deconstructing the very idea of an Attack Team in an Ultra show, and saying they're bound to be disbanded. But it was nice to see the team stick up for Blazar, and it made Blazar act up! Brood Gebalga! You gotta love those hybrid Kaiju! Oh wow, jumping straight into a Rise Sequence sword in hand! Only...that did not end well! Hey, it was nice to see the Earth Garon with it's full armament. Firdran, New Generation Litra! It's like Blazar's pet phoenix unleashed and ready to help him unlock his Final Form! The Firdran armor! Complete with a classic New Gen Transformation Sequence and Rise Sequence! We've got Funnels, Macross Missle Massacre, Earth Garon team-up, and a twin blade fiery action! Quite the debut! Was the presence of Emi's dad transferred to that moment? Was he actually physically there? He seemed younger than I expected, but maybe that's just how he looked when Emi was young. So aliens visited in 1999 and they've been the ones invading? I don't know what Nishiki's endgame is here, but it doesn't seem good. Especially when they've fired Retsu. Next week: Teruaki focus episode! Finally! And Dugogon! |

Resuming the Ultra watch with the first true true entry in the New Generation era with Ultraman Ginga.
Saw the first three episodes and it's not as awful as many people puts it, but it still leans itself on the same formula of Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle with the random monster fights they're doing except it's now on Earth and with an Ultraman in the mix. Having Ultraman Taro as a mainstay is an odd choice. You'd think for the New Generation they'd use this to further promote Zero but Taro of all characters is weird. I don't get it. |

I finished Ultraman 80! It... wasn't very good!
Looking back on the show, it's hard to believe what a mess it was honestly. The goofy early parts where Yamato was trying to be a teacher and UGM member with moral lessons each episode, then the strictly UGM focused part which was just really dull, then they moved towards "child of the week" format, before shifting towards a more serious endgame once Yulian showed up. In a sense, it was similar to Leo is that it was an erratic show that was constantly shifting its cast and narrative, but it lacks the unusual edge to it that made Leo such an enthralling experience in spite of its numerous flaws. Probably the weakest entry of the Showa era by a long shot for me, I kept zoning out mid-episode because it just wasn't really engaging. Of course, it was obvious something bad must have been going on with the production of this show, so as soon as I finished I was off to do research! There seems to have been conflict on just about every level. Tensions between the effects and drama teams working on the show over which should get the most focus, between TBS (which wanted a more traditional show) and Tsuburaya Prpductions (which wanted a serious drama focusing on the issues kids were facing), and the massive, disproportionate amount of flack the show got from parents at the time due to concerns over violent children's shows. It's no wonder the show turned out like this. I will give it a few compliments though! I thought that it was interesting how we got to see some unusual characters like the PR guy and the woman who handles meteorological data. Not something I've really seen in an Ultra show before. The effect works was as solid as ever too. Not to mention, the ending itself was really nice. Perhaps the most exciting thing of all is that I have now seen all the Showa-era Ultraman shows! Well, except for The Ultraman. I'll get to that one eventually. Overall, I really enjoyed the Showa-era for this series. I think it had a lot of bold entries that were far ahead of their time. The original Ultraman was fun and quirky. Return was bittersweet and full of interesting episodes. Leo was flawed but so intensely dark and gritty. I was quite pleased and am looking forward to continuing things with the Heisei era!

I was quite pleased and am looking forward to continuing things with the Heisei era! It definitely had a few creative shifts. Though the one good thing about dropping the teaching aspect, despite it being very unique to 80, is that it let them develop UGM better than, say, MAC. Even if they still ended up replacing like two guys with other two guys. I honestly though the weatherwoman/Yuri was going to be Yulian at first just because it seemed plausible she would take up the face of someone Yamato knew to sneak into UGM. |

When Firdran first showed up I was like "Goldburn?!" because that would've been cool. It was still cool though!
