[GoldenXtreme]

This time I watched the Ultra Galaxy Fight subseries, plus the Regulos stuff! Probably accidentally spoiled some minor things from Ultraman Z but... oh well! This stuff really puts the "stupid" in "big stupid crossover". I found this stuff was best approached by just turning my brain off and being amused at all the obscure characters. Just let Ultraman Zearth and Andro Melos wash over you! The actual quality of this subseries isn't all that high though, the plot is obviously flimsy window dressing for the crossover content. Not to mention that as much as I enjoy some good suit acting, it might be too much to have this much content be done purely via guys in costumes. I think the Ultraman Regulos series in particular really shows the cracks in the format. Stripped of the absurdity of seeing randos like Ultraman Xenon again, you're left with a rushed martial arts drama.

Presumably they will continue this whole miniseries eventually, but it hasn't happened yet, so we don't have a satisfying conclusion currently. Still, if they do follow it up eventually then I'd like to see Rei show up since they were teasing a revived Alien Reiblood at the end of First Mission. Also... they should throw Gridman into the crossover madness, just for shits and giggles.
