Yes, on both accounts.

If you can't find it, the movie isn't super vital, but it will fill in some holes later on in the show.

It's definitely worth watching though. One of the best tokusatsu shows ever.

(people say it's so radically unlike most Ultraman shows that it's a bad first entry, but a friend of mine who is a huge Ultraman and Kaijuu guy now first got into the genre through Nexus)

Guys, if any of you have Facebook, I co-run a fan page & a fan group on there. The page is called Ultra Warrior. The group is called Ultra Universe.

Boy. That is...that is not a great dub.

Cards will always be the best gimmick of all time.

Definitely! Three Kamen Riders have used cards. The Goseigers used cards! For the debut of Burnmite last week, I chose this card as my forum's Card Of The Week: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/...NF-EN-R-1E.jpg

Yeah, Nexus is a good show. It's very different than the standard Ultra series, but it's still interesting and engaging. The movie is worth a watch, too, even if it isn't really referenced much in Nexus proper.

Ultraman Nexus is rad and is definitely worth watching. I haven't seen the movie though.

Speaking of movies!

The movie is definitely worth a look subbed. TV-Nihon subbed it, and you can still download that, as Crunchyroll didn't license that.

You can watch Nexus without it, as it's not heavily referenced aside from why a certain group of people exist in the show.

Nexus is awesome anyway. Probably my favourite Ultra show out of the ones I've seen.

Nexus is one of my favorite Ultras. I sometimes do his Over-Ray Storm movements for fun.
