Enjoying it?

I agree, and I am a bit curious how their legal team even approved this. If they at the least made the head not resemble Ultraman I bet most of our reactions would be less-concerning and more acknowledging as a tribute. Now the art style itself is cool and the color palette works for what they are going with I think but yeah, this looks like the mutated form of Geed Acro Smasher colored purple-ish with the eye of Gan-Q for a color timer. I dont hate it but overall concerned.

So far so good.

EDIT: Hold on, let me correct myself: The first 4 episodes were great, and then it went on drugs mode.

I think I’ll share this since no one else has. The Ultra Heroes expo 2018

My verdict: it’s even weirder than Rider and Sentai Final Stage shows.

So what exactly happened at the end of "The Underground Super-Express Goes West"? Did all the passengers die? And what's with M1 suddenly saying "I am seagull"? This episode was going fine until this ending!

"I hate sand."

Ep. 4 of The Absolute Conspiracy is up!

Experiences of Early Belial and Father of Ultra (referred to as "Ken") are highlighted.

Absolute Tartarus decides to play around with the past.

Numerous villains are congregating!

The Land of Light has a legitimate Congress!

Zero narrates and Geed is name-dropped.

What is it all building-up to?

P.S.: No Max or Ribut here!

Belial got cucked by Ken and that is how he became evil. And he was already a douche from the beginning? Wait, if I recall something that I read in the wiki, didn't Mebius say Belial was cool dude back then?

You know, seeing Father of Ultra just completely ignore the significance of Belial's outbursts for who knows how many years really adds fuel to my secret fan theory that the Land of Light is a society so utopian they're all utterly lost when it comes to dealing with anyone who deviates from their perfect system. I think the biggest lesson anyone learned here was Ultra Seven refusing to associate with his own son until he stopped being so edgy. I'm just saying, it isn't always hard to see why Tregear got so fed up with these people insisting on their own righteousness. :lol

(And yes, I'm aware I'll probably have to either retract that last statement or double down on it depending on how the next couple episodes play out.)

Given the evolved philosophy within Marvel's Rise of Ultraman #2 (Spoilers if you haven't read it yet! Sorry!), you might be close to right!

I'm gonna pull a Star Trek here and say that the Land of Light may need they're own Section 31 or "In The Pale Moonlight" moment! :lol
