I do want to add that it only LOOKS like King Joe! I haven't seen confirmation as of yet, but I will add it when I do (unless someone beats me to it).

If it is King Joe, will the STORAGE version be a custom to the Z-Universe King Joe who is only a STORAGE Robo, or will King Joe invade the Z-Universe and be damaged and salvaged and re-worked by STORAGE!?

Remember, Z's Gamma Future is in the opener and that form still hasn't made an appearance! I don't see this coming immediately.

But why is Red King... not red? Ultraman is very confusing indeed.

Because he’s made of corn.

Hey so the man in the green suit isn't belial reborn right? I feel like that'd be a bad twist.

Edit: Also did Z get a second writer or did the first writer finish the series before passing?

That's definitely what I saw... and it is so different from the OG King Joe! Kinda looks like "King Joe-Meets-Diaclone".

Where did you find that image? Wasn't part of the Twitter set that I saw.

Found more on information on all this, including but not limited to King Joe STORAGE Custom!

Still say it's basically "King-Joe-Meets-Diaclone" with a little Sentai thrown in for good measure!

>Ultraman show gets a combining robot.
>Super Sentai: *nervous sweating*


But he looks pretty damn cool though and yeah, I keep thinking of Diaclone when I look at him.

Episode 7 is here, and it's pretty great!

This one was a lot more like it. Sakamoto goes completely nuts on the action, they remembered Ultramen can change sizes (which I always love seeing), and, most importantly, it puts into context why the exposition in it and the last one was so darn clunky. I still wish they hadn't taken the show away from Haruki and Z as much as they did these past two weeks, but everything about the structure here makes way more sense knowing Geed was just a temporary guest star. It's like one big nostalgic party for that series that Z fans are totally still invited to, as long as they understand where the spotlight really is.

I must say I wasn't expecting Geed to show up and leave so quickly, but hey, the show is Ultraman Z after all. It was really cool seeing Z team up with two veterans using his full arsenal up till now. It really showed us how much he and Haruki have grown and helps us send off this first batch of episodes.

Everything has been set up about the Devil Splinters alongside the Ultra Medals and Kaiju Medals, Z and Celebro are both firmly in place with their abilities and powers. Juggler continues to be Juggler. Things are fitting into place as we enter the next act.

They even threw in an Orb reference.
