A friend talking about Mebius is what reignited my fandom of the franchise. Great was the first Ultra I was ever exposed to.

I've always been confused about the number of Ultra "seasons," with knowing Retsuden's in the mix and other countries having productions. I clicked through each season on an Ultra wiki, seeing what at least looked like "standard" Japanese Ultra seasons, and my count came to the same total as Wikpedia: 24. Does this sound right to those with more Ultra knowledge?
This could, of course, place the 25th season during the 50th anniversary, which is pretty cool. |

There are a lot of spin-offs, limited availability, and miniseries that are part of the Ultraman series. I imagine that the exact number of shows at this point likely depends on who you ask.
Personally, I count the long running, standard broadcast shows as the "main" ones and the rest as spin-offs or side projects. That's just me, though, and I'm still a relatively new fan. |

Yeah, certainly seems there'd be a bit of subjectivity built up around that. Unless I learn something that changes my mind, I guess that's the numbering I'm going with.

Just watched episode 8 of Gaia. I've seen a lot of dubious scientists in tokusatsu, but I think the paleontologist in this episode may be the stupidest: convinced that the monster is a "ghost of a lifeform that Earth abandoned in a mass extinction" she almost gets eaten when she tries to reason with it emotionally. Yeesh.
On a related note, I'm not thrilled with the subs Crunchyroll is using. The last couple episodes have been riddled with spelling errors and awkard translations. They're almost reading like HKs in places. |

From a link on HJU a look at Orb and three of his other forms http://raffleupagus.tumblr.com/post/...-looks-like-he
Other forms include (based on onformation provided by Aoi Kureani later in the thread) Specium Zeperion - based on Ultraman and Tiga Burn Mite - Based on Mebius and Taro and Hurricane Slash - Based on Jack and Zero So they're doing a thing were he's fusing the powers of two other Ultras for one form. |
