So yesterday I watched episodes 18-26 of Leo. There were some really great episodes and then there were meh episodes. One episode I was confused with though had Leo's brother appear out of nowhere. This is the first time we have ever heard of Leo talk about a brother, who died years ago when they were kids, but then he randomly shows up in the middle of battle to help him defeat the monter brothers because he didn't die, and then just leaves. WTF? You haven't seen each other in years, Leo thought you were dead, so you don't even turn into human form to chat? That makes no sense whatsoever.

EDIT:

So yeah... I just got up to the introduction of Commander Black. I need time to process what just happened.

Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel that they killed off the entire cast. Except for Dan and Momoko, none of them were remotely developed in any form outside of one or two moments, and that was really just Takeshi with the werewolf girl episode. The entire MAC crew were pointless. It makes me hard to care that they died. I'm also not a fan of them just offing Momoko pretty much off screen like they did because it feels more like it was done for shock value rather than advancing the story. I can understand not doing a big thing on the MAC crew, but she was a prominent character and deserved to either have a final moment or to at least have Leo say his goodbyes with a corpse.

Okay, so moving to the episodes before that, I ended up watching some truly specatcular ones today that were also mixed in with some terrible ones. I enjoyed the Momotarous and Kaguya episodes as they were fun ones. On the other hand, the episode with the flower dude and the little **** who needs a spanking that bullies a monster because he doesn't like doing homework were awful. I don't get Astra though. For someone who was thought dead, he sure doesn't really do much to catch up with his brother or even explain how he survived.

The episode with the mirror monster was quite good and I really loved the two parter with the Ultra Brothers. In fact, that episode kind of felt like it could have been the series finale to the show with the way it ended. It was cool seeing the original Ultraman while I could not help but laugh at the fact that the other dudes name is Ultraman Returns. Seriously?

Oh, but my favorite moment in the series though was far was the narration that went something like this, "After seeing Ultraman Returns, Ultra Seven, and Leo, Ashura decides to get the heck out of there," and then it shows the Inhumanoids monster running for his life. That was great.

Lastly, I also noticed that one of the useless MAC girls is the actress who played Katsura in Terror of MG.
