Episode 27 "A New Battle ~Version-up Fight!~"

Wow sorry guys for the incredible late post. Got no excuse, life just got in the way. Either way the show must continue so we will too.

With Fujimiya out of the picture and with Gamu obtaining Agul’s power it seems like a deliberate choice to have him act more like Fujimiya now. As evidenced by his whole weight lifting session at the very beginning and his ponderings of the soul crushing loneliness he feels now that he’s the only Ultraman. But in spite of everything the episode shows that neither Gamu or Gaia is ever alone. From something as small as his parents buying a computer to keep more in contact with their son to the members of XIG and especially Ogawara these moments bring out the best of humanity and remind Gamu of what he’s fighting for.

The third Metal Organism Mimos, a lot more bulkier and monstrous looking but still keeping design elements started with Apatee & Alguros. Can I just say I love the concept of Gaia V2 fighting a fake Gaia based of his original V1 that just shows off how much more powerful the new upgrade is it just simply plain genius of storytelling and taking advantage of the shows many elements to promote their new thing in a way that doesn't feel intrusive.

Something different this time for the music and it’s the insert song “Power Of Gaia” in comparison insert songs aren’t as common or talked about in Ultraman in comparison to Kamen Rider or Super Sentai but nevertheless they slap hard. I love the lyrics and the melody and the more somber rock feel to it.

The power of the Earth
The power to survive
When to use as long as life
The miracle that attracts you

When the heart of the magma awakens, I'll stand up with the Earth
Evil, I have a shining will that you have lost

I want to protect my loved ones
It's just that, it's the same as it used to be

Every time I feel sad
Every time I suffer
When to move forward as long as life
What you can see is the light (Gaia)

I was holding hope and courage when I was born
Creating a world where weak and ephemeral people can feel at ease

I believe in what I believing
It's just that, the prayer of heart does not change

For someone
For myself
When to live as long as life
The power is coming up (Gaia)

(I'M GONNA FIGHT FOR THE EARTH)
(I'M GONNA FIGHT FOR THE EARTH)

The power of the Earth
The power to survive
When to use as long as life
The miracle that attracts you (Gaia) the light (Gaia)
