Trying to pick back Ultraman R/B after I sort of trailed off in the middle of last year, with episode 9.


It wasn't bad! The brother's teamwork is neat, Makoto is a fun villain, and his plan isn't especially complicated or evil, but it works to throw the hero's bond and heroic values into relief. I especially like, how, despite this being a new-form-introduction, they almost defeat him *without* the new form! Like, Water Rosso and Flame Blu had him on the ropes! There are still a few sticking points - I have no clue what an "Ultraman Orb" is, so Aizen using all that goes way over my head. Same with Ultraman Victory, he sure does have a V on his head. But, mostly, it doesn't matter, the plot is solid enough that I don't really care that much?
