This price cannot be right. There's no way it costs $40.99, right?!

a) It is absolutely worth that.
b) It will be about half the price when it's actually released.

The Next actually released after Nexus started airing. Nexus started airing on October 2nd 2004, The Next released on December 18th 2004

Yeah with all the problems with the Ultra N Project and Tsuburaya as a whole at the time it was intented to be released before but was delayed.

Oh, it's out now? Nice!

I had a premonition during the trailer for this episode, and I'm not too surprised to see the guy who has had the least development and spotlight turn out to be a villain. Heck, he recently found out about Kanata being Decker, so...

And ultimately, this was a fantastic episode! Twist villain and all. I think they nailed it making this the point we actually know what's going on besides the Sphere.

It's cool how The Doctor has a device similar to the Trigger Spark, but evil and TerraPhaser themed, even the voice is similar! A neat way to introduce a "rival/villain" and not just give him a dark version of the main transformation item (not that those are bad or anything).

Lots of great action scenes like at the start with the upward facing camera fight, or the Spheresaurus fights. Really happy to see Spheresaurus again, and that Alternate Decker fight was amazing to see. Given how he also has the power to break the barrier, I wonder if he's connected to that Yuzare lookalike from the Trigger Crossover, possibly even being that woman they were talking about. Also, Time shenanigans!

Next Episode: Whoa, whoa, Dyna(mic)!

Noiseler! Finally upgraded from being just in the Opening to dying in the introductory sequence. But it was nice to see him and find out how much of a dynamic duo Decker and Terraphaser are! That attempted fist bump was hilarious.

So the Sphere's big plan was...reviving a more powerful Spheresaurus. Well, it's a good suit, may as well not waste it.

Kanata shooting down Sphere in a dogfight! Asuka would be so proud!

So it turns out the Big Bad was...Asakage!? In a snazzy new outfit!? And with a dark version of the Ultra hosts' transformation device that lets him control Terraphaser (which is now basically just New Gen Deathfacer) and summon the powers of the Kaiju they've slain this season? Yeah, he's a New Gen antagonist all right.

I hope Hanejiro is okay...

"So you're the Decker of this age." Seems those rumors about Decker and the main villain being from the future were actually accurate. Is the bob-cut Yuzare meant to be this "Leila" that Asakage and Future Decker mentioned? Definitely some bad blood there.

Holy crud Future Decker! Did not expect him to show up and take over from Kanata almost immediately. Not only is he basically an example of a seasoned and experienced warrior Decker, but he has more of that Asuka/Dyna swagger behind him and knows how to perfectly implement his forms and Monster Cards. He even finally used Miracle Type's multiplication ability! Kanata might learn a lot from this guy!

Next week...the truth about Sphere! And the future! And Dyna! And the debut of Dynamic Decker!!!

Today's Decker, just all of the things that are happening. Felt like we kept getting bombshell after bombshell. My thoughts range from "WTF just happened" to "OMG what's going to happen next", and I mean that in the best way possible. Decker has been a really great show so far and this start for the 2nd half has me all excited for what's coming in the future

DaikaijuSokogeki01 · 10-14-2022, 08:56 PM

Fun fact: With Masashi Taniguchi transforming into Future Decker, he is now only the second actor to play an Ultraman, a Sentai Ranger (GoBlue) and a Kamen Rider (Amazon Alpha/Falchion). Kane Kosugi became the first just a few months ago.

Will Mio Kudo become the third? Hmmmmmm

Jello · 10-15-2022, 06:55 AM

wow

that was a lot!

new Decker seems pretty cool ngl

Totally the best episode of Decker so far! Loved it!

We finally get to see Noiseler in the show and he gets blown the fuck up before the opening credits. Poor Noiseler.

Have we seen Hanejiro move around on his platform thing like a cute Dalek before? I like that.

Spheresaurus is still ridiculously cool.

A lot of "whoa what? Whoa WHAT?!" in the second half of this episode. Future Decker is badass. I liked that Ryumon noticed that Future Decker was a much better fighter than modern Decker. Even in-universe our Decker's kind of useless. (I like Taniguchi. I dunno, he seems cool.)
