I will look into uploading the... well, less TV-N version of Nexus, subbed by James Ballard of the defunct Ultraman-Nexus.com, so that if you want an alternative, you can have it. No guarantees on a streaming option.

That would take away my biggest reservation. I want the rest of you to see Black, but I'd be down for some Ultra.

Tiga is on KRDL as well! The DVDs are odd... Some are easy to find, others near impossible. Go figure!

Honestly, I'd be in Space Monster heaven if Nexus wins, and then Black is the following LWW show. Hot dang.

Wow... I meant Wikipedia, why the hell did I write YouTube? I even did the capitals and urgh...it's half two in the morning I apologise.

Anyway, I'd like to download the series off the DVD release.
Does anyone who has Nexus downloaded in full be willing to torrent or upload an entire batch of them?

Torrent already exists, just needs more seeds: http://www.nyaa.eu/?page=view&tid=216517

No, actually, I didn't say that.

I lack such power.

DO IT. I almost wonder if we should do the N-Project the right way and officially start this LWW off with The Next instead of the first Nexus episodes. Nexus as a series isn't even 40 episodes long, and it makes a little more sense to watch The Next first. Den-O, your thoughts?

If you can handle the older series, it would make plenty of sense to start with Ultraman. Maybe Ultra Q if you were really so inclined, once the Shout! Factory DVD is out.

Tiga is another great place to start as it really hit off the Heisei era of Ultraman, killing the Japanese ratings while Kamen Rider was mostly hibernating. Nexus is another great introduction in itself but as I mentioned before is also a departure from the typical series. Max is my personal favorite series and is another standalone universe but regrettably is not fully subbed properly. Mebius was the first return to the Showa universe since Ultraman 80, and was a perfect jumping-on point for newbies and veterans alike. It's the popularity of Mebius that led to the Showa universe remaining in the limelight and brought us Ultraman Zero and Belial and the fantastic films that came out of that.

I am currently downloading the series myself because sadly, I didn't actually retain my own copies of the U-N Nexus episodes aside from the last one! The first three episodes are already done and the next three are minutes behind. I will find some place to upload for direct downloads and if I have a chance, explore streaming options.

If Nexus wins I know what prize I'm giving away this time

I can think of two

If Nexus wins, I think people are going to hope that particular set of prizes don't end at two.

Not what I meant... I'm referring to the selection of characters? You haven't watched Nexus yourself, right? I don't think you'd get it yet.
