Just saw this tonight. Couldn't yesterday cause I drove an hour and 45 minutes (at least) to another city that actually does have a legitimate comic book store to try and obtain the first issue of Marvel's Ultraman...to no avail!

As for the episode itself, it wasn't anything more spectacular than other episodes save for Haruki's inner crisis. Seeing King Joe get so much love isn't surprising, but it had its moments and unlike a standard Ultraman or Sentai Robo, King Joe doesn't get what one would call a standard stock footage finisher. I'm worried that once Haruki and Zett get a new form, King Joe will get even less focus.

I'm honestly not familiar with this Kaiju, but having a giant cannon adds to its unique appearance. Having a bunch of (toy) cars and garbage on set as "monster food" was a nice decorating touch. Dining on Windom was a little unexpected. Seeing Zett in his "basic" form while still giant helped show the uniqueness of Zett and the series as a whole.

I now suspect Zett and Haruki will meet X and Cosmos and this inner crisis will come around again even if Haruki finds some sense of inner peace in the series proper!

Next week...Kanegon hungry!
