Briefly going off the recap: I kind of enjoyed the commonfolk (or at least, outside of SKaRD) reacted to Blazar so far, and even gives us a little insight to how some events got resolved and the aftermath of the incidents. Not bad.

This week's episode, however, was the most Showa Ultraman kind of plot, and I enjoyed it. I love how Tsuburaya have been giving us some very retro aliens lately (some returning, but overall, I like the charm), and the whole plot, while silly and cheesy, is full of heart, which is pretty much what makes episodes like these fun. Also, the Alien is named Herbie. That's funny to me.

But of course, getting to see a duel between Blazar and Earth Garon was neat (along with the Berserk Kiryu moment), and if the Dorgo Episode didn't convince me Blazar broke all laws of physics for himself, this episode where he corkscrews himself to propel the Spiral Bolide certainly confirms that. My gosh, what a bizarre Ultraman (which isn't a bad thing).

Next Episode: A TWO PARTER! And a cool looking Kaiju to boot.
