While I don’t really like to put the other two down because all three series have been by far and large the best toku shows of their respective year, I’d agree that Geed is a stronger series than X and Orb. Simply because it feels like it encapsulates both of their stronger qualities.

Orb dealt with a smaller cast and so had better character development as well as a properly developed villain.

In comparison X was a much more “by the numbers” Ultraman show, but felt better connected with the wider universe with all its crossover elements (I know Orb had the cards, but the point stands).

Geed has both of these things, and does them both very well. It’s also acting as a really good Ultraseven anniversary series without directly involving Ultraseven as well. Watching them side by side has really made me appreciate how many cameos they’ve thrown into Geed.

Huh. Guess I'll have to catch up. I mean, I liked Orb. And Geed's designs look really freaking cool. Maybe this'll be another hit for me. :D

I can't totally judge Geed because it hasn't finished, but I like it about as much as Orb so far. (which is a lot!) There are things Orb does better than Geed and vice versa so it sort of evens out.

I still like X the most out of the "New Generation" Ultras.

Gosh I'm gonna be real sad when this show is over, but on the other hand, if it's just going to be 3 more episodes this good I'm glad it's ending on such a high note.

Crazy Skeleton Belial also looks extremely good on-camera. I'm shocked to say it, but they genuinely succeeded at making him look even creepier.

Man, Geed said goodbye to the pimp cape and cane and bought himself a sledgehammer/battleaxe thingy. :lolol

bit of a twist there.

this show is so good. I'm going to be sad when it's over.

Especially because that means no more Moa.

Hm... as good as this episode was, Belial popping out of Arie was rather anticlimactic. I would've preferred it if he just came out of Kei himself. Like a Voldemort-kinda thing.

Anyways, now that the "setup" is done the finale can begin. 3 more episodes of this you say? Sounds awesome to me!

Why must these shows be so short? I need more Moa and Laiha in my life. And....does this mean Arie is still dead? Or was she just a husk to begin with? Was she even real? UGH, so many questions. And holy crap, Kei turning massive and that fight was insane.

I love Atrocious' look. It makes that offset of his eyes so much more nasty.
