The debut of Ultraman Blazar and it was a fantastic one!

From the get-go, it felt very Godzilla-esque, partly the helidrop sequence, but mainly of Vs. Biollante and the start of Megaguirus with the elite ground team fighting within the Kaiju's line of destruction.

Also, a very unique way for the first transformation being forced upon him and him clearly questioning his form once he's able to regain his bearings without seeing his inner thoughts (nothing wrong with that, but I liked how well they portrayed it through Blazar's actions). Bazanga is a fantastic Kaiju design and the fight was also a lot of fun (Blazar went Spiderman for a moment and I thought that was hilarious).

I do enjoy how they show us Gento as a captain, he's responsible, calculating, and cares for his teammates. They absolutely nailed how a team leader should be which makes Gento already a great first impression.

I will admit, while I love Blazar's "roars" (this Ultraman is very animalistic, which reminds me of Geed but to a more extreme extent), I do feel he's a little too vocal, not a bad thing, but I'm not too big a fan of him growling/grunting constantly. Again, not a bad thing, I love how bizarre he sounds, but I feel it's a little too much of it.

Anyway, I'm absolutely loving this and can't wait to see Earth Garon!
