Wait if we are doing the Blazer crossover now, does that means King of Mons will be in the final arc of the show?
https://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.php?p=22601974&postcount=5288Z's Blu Ray supposedly coming on January 28
>>22925580if they ever get to Trigger and Decker, they should just bundle the two series together, because seeing Kengo being cool in Decker is the only reason one should watch Trigger
SKaRD members appearing in the upcoming crossover episodeshttps://x.com/m78_imagination/status/1854471803911229483
>>22925639No, dummy. The post only says they're appearing in a special livestream at the end of the month. We don't know who else is appearing beside Blazar and Earthy
Take a guess, what's from Ace is being released next?
>>22925769Ace Robot or Yapool.
>>22925769Ace with cape. Or him>>22925816I think they included Ace Robot body braces with Ace Killer
Another story arc of the recently late but undoubtedly great Kazuo Umezu's Ultraman manga.https://mangadex.org/title/3115a8a6-fbec-4896-af3d-e6495b6bc755/kazuo-umezu-s-ultraman
>>22925816>>22925834Did we even have Yapool already? I thought we did.
>>22925546No, King of Mons is for Gaia crossover
it seems that whenever I skip an episode of Arc, it ends up being a really important onehow is Zangill back? he literally vanished for good in Blazar
>>22926639The next like four episodes are a Blazar crossover.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4_v2TGnUkIHow was the 17th episode?
Zangill saw Blazar when Arc used the Demon slicing technique
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuNwasA0IFsEpisode 18 preview.
Where the hell did all these Max vs. Dark Baltan lookin' tricks come from??
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uj3syZulgU
>>22926872Arc's imagination, clearly.
Imma wait till all episodes are broadcasted to watch them back to back
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=murq6yuB3bg
>>22925769It's Hipporito. Good job, me>>22925834
they're really trying to get the most mileage out of those blazar kaiju suit huh? reusing it this much already. I'm tired of this mf taganular. they could've brought back at least one showa kaiju to reference the monster graveyard to diversify the selection a bit and make reuses seem less desperate.
so they made ishido a coffee nut just as a long setup for zangilli fucking KNEEL
>arc can just make clones of himselfseems pretty busted
>>22927086Miracle Decker?
>>22927149i didnt watch trigger or decker
>>22926856some comedy moment and nice actions.Still not much about the higher up of GDF
>>22927180from the way arc is written, GDF isn't supposed to be shown directly. they're like Orb's VTL, Shu and Ittetsu acts as their representative. I guess that also means that they're not malicious like Blazar's GGF
i cried ;_;
>>22926806These two Zangill eps are really good for a mid-series crossover, honestly I'd prefer if they just ended it here. Hopefully the rest of them won't ruin it.
>>22926992Aside of Red King or Guigass there would onlz be Gavadon that would there would onlz be Gavadon that would make sense, as the army are connected to
Oh my givas this China UAF Premium Garon >>22912911 is a completely new mold. About 10% smaller than the DX.
>>22927305I thought they would share less visible parts like the joints, but even those are very different. Shoulder and hips have been changed from ball joints to swivels.
>>22927310Feet is 1 part instead of 2. Feels a little loose on the UAF compared to the DX.
Backpacks use 2 pegs instead of C-Clips so they are not backwards compatible with the DX
Changing the eyes involve detaching the whole skull from the jaw.
You can still attach articulated Dalin hands without modding. They just look a little oversized.
>>22927086it's a 2024 thing
>Shat out hundreds of Taganular ghosts>But only ONE Gedos lol
>>22927305>>22927310>>22927311>>22927313>>22927317Go back to /toy/ faggot, no one cares about your inferior chinese toy or your desktop mess.
Did someone ask for MORE?
>>22927203>they're not malicious like Blazar's GGFyea, at the moment they aren't doing some conspiracy
>>22927086>forgetting Max
>>22927086Geed did the same thing but only during the finale
>>22927344 Kinda sad we barely got to see him. It's such a good design.
>>22927374Make him twerk
>>22928374Who among Ultraman human character deserves his own Shf? I wanna say Ide but his actor has passed away so it might not be appropriate

>>22928391It's happening. 2026, here we come
>>22928399Tiga 30 Years After. I can feel it.
>not putting Trigger next to Tiga Really, TsuPro?
My nigga really held out for one last cup of joe before dying
>>22928495Putting the real thing right next to the ripoff is disrespectful
If I liked Ultra Q, do I watch>Ultra Q The Movie: Legend of the Stars>Ultra Q: Dark Fantasy>Neo Ultra QOr do I keep following the Showa shows in order?
>>22928495I gotta question, how insanely popular is Geed? I know the series is received well, but sometimes I feel Geed is only included because he's affiliated with Zero and Z.
>>22928907It's a series that featured Zero, you do the math
>>22928907helps that Hamada keeps coming back
>>22928907Z hasn't even gotten to show up as much as Geed so that comparison seems kind of backwards.
>>22927358anon, the Chinese toys are often superior lol. especially the sofubi paint jobs
>>22928951I mean Z is relatively recent so that's a given.
>>22928907At some point Orb felt like one of the most popular recent show, to the point Geed was in the "post-popular series syndrome" where some people still miss Orb and don't really like Geed.Now it feels like only Juggler who's still popular from the Orb series, to the point some consider him more of a character from Z.
>>22929199I still think Orb is one of the best, but I admittedly still haven't seen Z or Blazar.
Are the scans ever coming?
>>22928445>Tiga: A New Odyssey
>>22929503When Banpresto acknowledges adding Rayfail and Trigger Gridman to SRW were bad calls maybe.
>>22928907I loathe the Zero movies and still think Geed is great.
>>22926961Given another chance in the future, we are getting a Figuarts Birdon someday to set Zoffy's head on fire again. It will happen, just not next year.
So, I'm assuming Trigelos is the final boss of Ultraman Arc?
>>22930017I forgot, whose logo is that?
>>22930030Looks like Arc's logo to me.
>>22930031I guess it's Galaxy Armor. Although it'll be cool if it's ZangilI kill someone if it's YouP
>>22930037For Zangill they would probably have used Blazar's logo.
>>22930037if its not galaxy armour, it probably is YouPi or a human character for once. we havent gotten that in a long ass time. maybe Shu or Yuma for a human figure
>>22930154>Shu or YuumaDoubt it. I haven't seen much evidence that they're anywhere close to Juggler fame
>>22930175juggler only got a head and that's only because his alien form already existed from Orb's run of figures. its just a creative rerelease. For Arc, there's really only Arc, his armours, and maybe YouPi. No mechs or anything as a secondary figure. if they don't do any secondary figs it'll probably just end with Rution release as an Arc repaint. kinda sad unless theyre willing to take the plunge and release human figures
>>22930037YouPi is a good character like Kengo.
>>22930317It's definitely not going to be human then. For Arc, you also have Rution original form. I don't think they have yet release the final form Shf before the series ends so Galaxy isn't a certainty eitherI suppose YouP would be likelier than the kaijus, although I think Givas would have a bigger appeal
>>22930317I don't think there's a demand of YouPi Figuarts. Before anybody bringing up Sevenger in Z as fellow cute-looking robot, that robot proven to be popular.

https://youtu.be/EN9al5y5zCYListen to that cheering
The Zadine and Zangil episodes were so cool it's making me wish the rest of Arc didn't make it so hard to recommend to people.
>>22929199Orb's popularity to so weird to me. Everyone seemed to be so into it. Then i watched it and I thought it was pretty mediocre. But when I came back out it felt like there was barely anyone clamoring about the show anymore. It's like the fanbase dissipated while I watched it (outside of Juggler fans, which is understandable, he was the best part).
>>22931037All the other releases seem special or long awaited, so it seems weird that something we obviously knew was coming would take a slot.
https://twitter.com/t_features/status/1856170093946032588Video.
>>22931031Same, back then it was the first entry of Ultra series for some people especially from those who previously only liked Kamen Rider because the characters felt like something closer to a Rider show.Sure it wasn't as big as Z as a first entry because that one got easier access (Youtube) but I know lots of people who are big fan of Orb, if I'm not wrong Kojima is one of them?
>>22931038I think the last three slots are always meant for the currently airing shows.
>>22931059One big issue for me with Orb was it felt incredibly small. It felt like Gai and Jugglas were the only characters that really mattered, and the heroine only really existed as some sort of reference point of the audience. The supporting cast was exceptionally weak, I am struggling to think of an Ultra series that has such a lacking cast of characters filling in the roles outside the main hero and villain roles.
>>22931164I actually really liked how small Orb felt. I liked its supporting cast as well.
>>22929199That's the thing, beforehand Orb was practically the poster child of New Generation, even Sakamoto admitted he intended Orb to lead the NewGen heroes during UGF whilist Geed is seen as secondary to Orb. And like you said, nowadays people tend to associate Z more. My guess it's because Z's fusion forms are more iconic (despite ironically people groaned when Z is revealed to use fusions).>>22931031There are a number of reasons why Orb is popular, it's a bit like Decade's popularity in some ways. Orb is the one who introduced the fusion gimmick which works wonders for the franchise (for better or worse). Plus an anniversary season that is considered good are bound to get more recognition. And Orb is where TsuPro is able to settle to a status quo that lasted to this day (primarily the episode count). Essentially while Zero/Ginga started the NewGen, Orb is the one where it's fully established. But yeah Orb seems to disappear nowadays, which I theorize has something to do with Z's popularity, so Geed appearing often is tied to him and Zero.
>>22931350>But yeah Orb seems to disappear nowadaysIf I'm not wrong Orb's actor took a break from entertainment some years ago, even deleted one of his social media (was it Instagram?), he seem got active again these days tho.
>>22931268Seriously? The uncle and the comedy duo were like the only supporting cast, and they barely mattered at all. I kind of liked the nerdy guy's role in the Galactron episode, but that was like the only time he was treated seriously. Even in the finale him and the other guy were just there to be goofy or bear witness to Orochi lore exposition.
>>22931350I think last of it was because Z's forms felt so detached from their components. The TDG form was a parlor magician because... They thought that would be a cool motif, not because of Tiga, Dyna or Gaia.. Acro Smasher was a big buff Zearth that Kanegon likens to Redman. Alpha Edge just became Z's default appearance in many people's heads, not really thought of as a fusion.
>>22931680Oh, and I think it's worth mentioning Geed Galaxy Rising since that's a fusion form from Z. It looks way more like it's visually inspired by Belial Atrocious than any of the actual Ultras on the associated medals.
>>22931690>Geed Galaxy RisingLol when it was first revelaed it felt like Geed wears a skinsuit of Greeza.
>>22931746More like Belial Atrocious
Tiga versions are all better.
>2 Shinkochou Seihou coming tomorrowI imagine one will be given to Kamen Rider, but which among Ultra can it possibly be?
>>22932361Glitter Trigger is better than Glitter Tiga.
>>22932361Carmeara, my beloved...
>>22932494No, Glitter Tiga is better and not dumb or overdesigned.
Sex with Kengo.
>>22932522Glitter Trigger has a unique design. Glitter Tiga doesn't.
>>22932530Glitter Trigger has a bad design, Glitter Tiga has a good design.
My husband.
>>22932361Why is the Dark Tiga suit's head in Ginga so fucking big?
>>22932565Skinny actor + stage show suit
>>22932550>>22932530Glitter Trigger's design should have been a "cast off" version of Trigger DarkChange my mind
>>22932493Agul, Supreme, or Seven.
>>22932870They probably would've done that if Trigger Dark is his penultimate form as intended. But I do appreciate Trigger Dark being the secondary, bit of a hot take but I wish we get more secondary Ultras.
>>22932361Darrgon and Hudram is more interesting than the original. Camearra and Carmearra are debatable, I like them for different reason.
>>22932361Reminder that Trigger's base forms were originally going to be three different Ultras.
>>22932996Basically Taiga again, which I honestly would welcome. The original concept for Trigger seems interesting enough
>>22932996They were not.
>>22932996They weren't, that concept was scrapped before they had any designs.
>>22932493its nexus isnt it
>>22932868>source: trust me bro
>>22932996Trigger's forms were never separate ultras.
>>22932493None but at we got it better than Sentai
>>22934007We have more prototypes at the showroom floor.Zero Wild Burst, Mother of Ultra, Ginga Victory and Gruebehttps://hobby.dengeki.com/event/2403414/
>>22932361why were they so anal about not using any Tiga kaiju? Where the fuck was King Goldras or King Silvergon or Charija or Zoiger or Regulan? How did Bandai fuck up so bad that the only returning kaiju were two suits specifically made for stageshows and by modifying Five King?At least Decker was better in that regard (Mons-Ahgar, Neomegas technically just being Neosaurus, Geomos, Alien Gregore and the Zomborg Soldiers ig)
>>22934431Probably because on the very same year they're also celebrating the whole franchise's 55th anniversary.
>SMILE SMILEI politely decline.
Let me think of things at a different angle: If we remember how bonkers the modularity of the Arc armors were in the Ultra Action Figure line, do you think Arc will somehow combine all three of his armors into one for his final in-show battle?
>>22934564Is the suit as modular? A lot of Riders didn't make full use of their gimmicks because their suits weren't as modular as their toys. KR W is one obvious example due to the split down the middle. Gaim is another one, their chestplates were permanently attached to the undersuit so characters kept using the same lockseeds.
>>22934568I guess it could work similarly to X's Hybrid Armor. Give him Galaxy's chest and boots, Solis' right shoulder and gauntlet, and Luna's left shoulder and shield.
>>22934057It's honestly weird Gruebe took this long. I mean he's from the same source as Grigio.
>>22934564Like you said there's nothing stopping them from doing a X hybrid armor form. Galaxy chest, moon shield arm, sun Popeye arm. The toy can do it.
>>22934795I've never quite understood why they do certain figures when they do. Stuff for current or recent shows and movies sure, but R/B was years ago and Gruebe was never that popular.
>>22934988In this case I think they are just filling in glaring holes in the existing sets. Same with Ginga Victory.But as unpopular as Gruebe may be I appreciate it getting a figure because the way R/B was set up, Gruebe was less like a bonus movie form and just the actual final form, Ruebe just seemingly like an intermediate transitional form retroactively.
>>22934568>their chestplates were permanently attached to the undersuitNah, the Gaim armors were modular. The issue with Gaim is just that most armors, bellow the actual armor part had a solid plastic piece keeping the armor together, which was colored after the primary user's undersuit. Someone in Gaim's production REALLY didn't want the color of that part clashing with the undersuits. They seemingly made an exception for the Silver parts on Banana's Armor being used on Gaim's blue undersuit though, but even in the Hyper Battle Video, where they made a quick sequence with a gimmick of switching around all the armors, they covered that part with some paper to "recolor" and match the undersuits when it wasn't silver.
>>22934564>>22935017I bet they regret not making that part a neutral color that would work on anyone, like black.
Scans wen
>>22934723Swapping the pauldrons might be problematic. On the toy it involves popping the parts off ball joints, something unintended.
>>22935176For the suits, they seem to be permanently attached to the chestplates. Galaxy armor + Solis gauntlet + Luna Shield is probably the furthest you can go with some hybrid armor honestly. And I think Johnny Bandai will want them to advertise something like the 3 forms all at once like we saw last ep, so you'll be "encouraged" to buy 2 more Arc bodies.
Ace's fimale is great but this guy sucks ass
Holy SHIT these threads are dead
>>22935593It means we are peaceful, unlike the other two
>>22935624And yet I still can't get a response for my question here: >>22928892
>>22934988>>22935006I don't know what world you're living in but Gruebe and Grigio was very popular following their reveal and their appearance in Ultra Galaxy Fight.
>>22928892watch them in order
>>22934795>>22934988>>22935006they've almost never made movie final form Figuarts since they first switched over from Ultra-Act in 2016 and even then, the latest Ultra that Ultra-Act had released when the line ended was Ginga so they didn't even make Victory, GingaVictory or X.>Ultimate Final took 2.5 years to release>Grigio took 3.5 years after MANY fan complaints to release after being stuck in Prototype hellEvil Trigger was the one that actually broke the curse but that was only because it was a Tamashii Nations 2022 promo after 8 months following the movie which was BEFORE Glitter Trigger Eternity came out btw.And even now:>Tregear took 4 years to release>X Beta Spark took EIGHT (8) YEARS>Orb Trinity, which is being released this month, took 7 years>Neither Reiga nor Dinas have a prototype
>>22928892Depends on why you liked itIf you like it for being nip Twilight zone, then Dark Fantasy is basically 80s Twilight Zone and Neo is Forrest Whittiker Twilight Zone
>>22935726>If you like it for being nipMore of less. I've seen other Ultraman shows, but Ultra Q was pretty distinct.
