Well, I've finally stepped into the Ultraman Franchise, actually started about a month ago when I was suggested to watch Ultraman X on twitter. I watch the first episode and it's not until yesterday that I decide to Marathon the series because I got bored.

So I watched the first 14 Episodes yesterday and the rest as well as the Ultraman X Movie today. So Short And Sweet: I'm ready to jump in and dive deeper into Ultraman.

Long Version: So X was one I wasn't sure about, if only because while I had seen snippets I didn't think I'd get attached to this series. But as time went on, around the Episodes 6 and 7 which was the first two part episodes we got I started to get more invested.

If there's one thing I like about Ultraman X is that X isn't the only effective line of defense, and there are times when he needs help and Xio can help provide that support. It really felt like most of Xio had a purpose, even the science division. I think the only two characters that never really did anything aside from their jobs were those two communication characters that sat around and mentioned whenever an attack or wherever an attack was going to be. Like during the penultimate episode when their having a standard conversation and playing rock, paper, scissors, I was like, "Wait, their doing something other than sitting around?"

That being said enjoyed the cast, it was nice to see Dr. Maki's actor again and Taiga's actor before he became an FPS Rider. Daichi was also a nice main hero and I do like how things were shown not told all the time.

Also I definitely have a new favorite monster in the form of Gomora, he was really cool to see, especially when he was use to help fight whenever X wasn't able to or when he fought alongside him. Also Greeza, I really want to know if there are odd disturbing Kaiju like him in terms of the noises and movement, I really enjoyed him from what we saw. The other past Kaiju's too are pretty cool when seeing them in action as well. As for the past Ultraman cameos, I enjoyed them a lot, for the most part they were there for me to get interested in each Ultraman and possibly check out their series. The most blatant crossover one was Ginga and Victory, since that apparently tied into previous stuff that happened but I didn't mind.

And now all I need to do is try and figure out what Ultraman Series to go after next. Max and Nexus definitely seemed interesting, though Zero also peaked my interest in his cameo, especially since I know he's unorthodox that he doesn't have a series but a set of movies and specials he's in.
