Great premiere! Starting off on a great note, Decker!
I think it goes without saying, but I loved this episode. Unlike Trigger, better pacing, I already like Kanata, and just an overall good episode. I've gushed about Decker's design, but his sound effects are just something else, I love the Color Timer's chimes, and the device has some good sounds too, though I admit the voice isn't really my favorite. Now I may not have seen or know much anything about Dyna, so I apologize if I get any information wrong or something, but I like the premise this show's going for with the Sphere taking over the Earth right from the get-go. And gosh darn, is Spheresaurus a great looking Kaiju, already a favorite. Not only do we get to see the characters early on, but it looks like we're getting a training episode for the crew? Sign me up! Decker has really impressed me, and I hope it continues to do well. And for the songs? The opening has some elements of Dyna's, but overall, it's practically a completely new song, which I like a lot. The ending is also very nice. So far, I'm sold on the music! Nothing bad against Trigger, which yes, was a little underwhelming, but it was still enjoyable to watch from week to week, and that's more than I could ask from a show. But boy am I enjoying this. Next Episode: Do you got the guts to join GUTS Select? Last edited by Daikaijuman54; 07-08-2022 at 08:15 PM.. |

Love that the theme song MV is just a workout video.
That being said, I'm glad for being optimistic about things because Decker definitely hit the ground running in a good way! Where I was kind of worried about Trigger due to their heavy push of "New Generation Tiga" and just... everything about the first episode with the references feeling very forced in some ways in hindsight (I recently rewatched Episode 1), this one felt a lot more natural? Also didn't help that Trigger Episode 1 just... did not dispel any feelings of me being worried about if the show knew what it identity was (Which I can say with confidence... it really didn't in the end). Like I'm sure it's definitely borrowing various elements from Dyna, but it doesn't overstate them like Trigger did. It also seems to not want to rush things either as we aren't immediately going into GUTS-Select and Decker gets to let his main form breathe as the star of the episode for a bit given next time we seem to be stuck with standard Decker still, which is good! There's a certain way I'm hoping they'll handle form changes compared to Trigger but we'll get there when they start showing up. We get a nice piece of like most of our core cast (Really digging Kanata immediately out of the gate), and I like the idea that the TPC just went to downscale the military side the further in without monster attacks they went while focusing on space exploration. The idea that GUTS-Select doesn't exist anymore and most equipment is automated alongside a new generation that needs to be trained now should make bringing together the team a lot more interesting. Also man, Spheresaurus is a cool Kaiju. I love unorthodox Kaiju designs like it and Genegarg from Z. I wish we'd get more of those to be honest. |

First episode is very by the book, nothing bad but nothing too exciting either.
Spheresaurus is an awesome monster suit though. |

My exact same thoughts.

The tradeoff, then, is that we're also dealing with a first episode that basically commits no missteps whatsoever, though, so I'd feel bad if it sounds like I'm picking on it at all. Decker certainly seems like it'll be a great time as usual!
