Started Ultraman Tiga today.
Gotta say, I'm already really enjoying it. Feels like '66 Man but with more focus on an ongoing plot.
Though something about it looks weird. I'm not sure if it's the lighting or the kind of film they shot it on, but it looks... I dunno, fake? I can't really explain it. It's like it's a soap opera.

I’m not going to lie, I feel Seven was both the best and worst thing to happen to this series.

>>23879528
elaborate on the 2nd part.
>>
>>23879702
NTA but making Dan and Seven be the same character from the start made us know more about what Seven thinks and how he acts.
While the end of Ultraman implies Hayata was just possessed by Ultraman the entire time, you don't know that for the length of the show. And anytime Ultraman did directly act or speak, he was very mysterious and otherwordly. Think of his evil sounding laugh when he finishes telling Hayata how the Beta Capsule works.
There was just a lot less we knew about him and his kind, whereas Seven had him directly falling in love with a human.

>>23879762
OGMan was designed to be godlike in that deus ex machina way. He was there to be the wiseman protector of humanity. Ide was the human character that had the most emotion and self-reflection

A lot of 90s/early 2000s toku was shot at 60fps. The "soap opera" effect is a real thing.

Why was RoU's finale so fucking awful? I just watched it and its just.....terrible.
>>
>>23880535
You can see the budget had fallen a lot in the 40s, and after a while it hit the writing side too (like how reducing the number of background members of MAT results in several later episodes writing like the only people manning the entire base were the named cast). The finale is just the unfortunate peak of all that.

Suit and fight looks really bad. Written knowing they didn't have budget for extras or even vehicle scenes but still trying to show MAT fighting rather than avoiding calling attention to those elements...
>>
>>23880642
I was thinking they'd have a little bit better of a budget since this is the son trying to take over and make this into a franchise. You'd think they'd want to make a big splash. Though ultraman didn't die here so i guess it worked out.
>>
>>23880460
Asuka had more personality than Daigo
>>
>>23880642
its not just the suits and the fights, even the writing is shit. And this should have been MAT's big moment but once again they're a bunch of incompetants.

Its crazy how the franchise went from the SSSP and UG, two of the most competant attack teams in the franchise, to MAT and TAC.

Additional Main Cast

Makita Sports as Junpei Minobe
>A professor in the Department of Animal Science and Biotechnology at the Meishin University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, attended by Ibuki, Emma, Kanna, Rintaro, and Bechi. While famous for being eccentric, he is a leading authority in the field of wildlife research. To Minobe, kaiju are simply a new species of animal; he risks danger to collect samples and immerses himself in research to uncover their true nature. He has an odd verbal tic of expressing his emotions using the names of brain chemicals such as dopamine, adrenaline, and oxytocin.


Makita Sports Profile
>Born January 25, 1970, in Yamanashi Prefecture. Height: 168 cm.
>Affiliated with Watanabe Entertainment.

Comment
>Congratulations on the 60th anniversary of the Ultraman series.
>When I was contacted about this commemorative project, I never thought I would be playing the role of Ultraman—and as it turns out, as expected, I’m not.
>I am Makita Sports, playing Junpei Minobe. I recall approaching the filming in a way that responded to the production team’s spirit of taking on new challenges. It is an honor to support the image of Ultraman in everyone’s hearts and to become a part of this history.

>I am deeply honored to participate in Ultraman Teo. I feel a sense of solemnity at joining the world of Ultraman, which has been loved by many for so many years, and at being able to play a part in the history of tokusatsu—a culture Japan proudly shares with the world. I believe this work is full of energy and hope that can be enjoyed across generations. I look forward to the day it reaches all of you.

The background in yesterday's stream featured a lot of Ultraman duo. Somehow this means there will be a secondary Ultra in Teo.

No seriously, I do think there's a chance for a secondary Ultraman to take the role of power up since Teo isn't doing that. Maybe a more violent contemporary

>>23880848
Even UltraSeven clearly suffers budget-wise in the 40s, although there they actually tried to use the writing to try to hide or downplay those issues, and they did keep some time/resources for the finale.

>>23880802
>And this should have been MAT's big moment
Not really. The whole point of the RoU finale is Ultraman Jack defeating Zetton this time and getting over the trauma of the original Ultraman's loss. So, MAT was always going to do badly there story-wise since Jack had to save the day to prove himself. The problem is that due to low budget rather than new vehicle footage, we get goofy scenes like MAT's members running to the middle of the street and firing their pistols at Zetton and then acting surprised when it doesn't work. It just makes the whole thing look like a joke. They really should have written the episodes in a way where they could avoid that situation.
>>
>>23882406
It feels like Teo is meant to be one of those "back to basics" Ultras. Aside from him changing colors when he uses special moves (which is an overlay effect and not separate suits), I don't expect him to do anything too elaborate. His colors very conspicuously don't include red though, so that might be his "final form."
>>
>>23881122
>>23881275
I was thinking that too. he looks like an actual tough guy who can fight
>>
>>23882452

>>23882425
I think MAT atleast should have been the ones to take out Alien Bat while Jack battled Zetton II

interesting that Ribut is placed before Z rather than after Trigger. Creation-wise, he should be after X but I guess it was based on his suit creation date. I guess if live action suits were made, Lipiah and Rising would be there
>>
So, I've been playing Death Stranding 2 and to my surprise, there's a whole game mechanic based on Ultraman, which is BT summoning. It even goes as far as to have 4 1966 Ultraman BGMs when you summon a BT and they also last 3 minutes when summoned. Very pleasant surprise and to actually have the music in the game is so cool. Jimbo really is a big nerd.

It’d be funny if Z got his own “Ultimate Force” and it was Redman and Iron King.

I got used to the idea of a show’s conclusion being in a novel but putting Omega’s conclusion in a clip show that gets removed after a week is certainly a choice.

Iron King's there because of the connection with Ultraseven (same writers). Captain Ultra's there because the channel that aired Ultra Q and Ultraman, when told Tsuburaya needed some time to prepare Ultraseven, had Toei make a space opera show with kaiju, and used Ultra to keep it on people's minds.

>>23880535
I've only seen a few Ultra series but I've seen nearly every Sentai and Rider series. It's so rare for a protagonist to have an actual girlfriend from the beginning and spend time with her that I was so disappointed with how Aki's arc ended. They had such a fun relationship. I know why it happened but it still sucks. Especially since her brother got caught in it. It felt like a lot of the emotional weight of the show vanished after that. Show still had some good episodes after that point.

projecting much? jokes aside, I even see remarks of him not being masculine in the toy review videos. his whole shtick is he I assume has to learn to man up and fight to protect the things he love.

Now he just need life threatening trainings to get better.

I know there's only so much they could do with Ultraman, unlike the liberty Kamen Rider gets, but it's hard to not see this show as a kind of New Gen Cosmos. Especially with how Teo is.

The Chinese statement is saying that the Shanghai court has dismissed all appeals made by UMC regarding the 奥特曼 trademark. It still doesn't overturn UMC's 2013 win at the Guangdong Court (regarding the use of the likenesses) so basically nothing's much changed and it's same the status legally since the start of the year.

Though this does solidify that UMC can only use the likenesses but not the most popular Chinese name. Tangible effect of this is that all of UMC's licensees will have to recall their toys/cards/stationery/marketing and slap on "salted egg superman" or whatever lame name instead. A small win.
>>
>>23894917
I'm curious how it'll affect Auldey/Alpha Group, the Armor Hero and Superwings people. They are probably UMC's largest licensee, but no one really bought their UMCman toys in the first place because they are ugly.
>>
>>23894928
they'll probably have to crawl and beg at SCLA's knees to get a license. you'd think a company with a long history and this much money for R&D would be able to afford official licenses, considering even small companies manage to get them

I don't see how Ultraman's particularly bad even if that makes the episodes more predictable.
That said, Zeztz itself is pretty bad at shilling anything not used by the MC, which is why its so surprising items used by Nox and Sieg are so high.

>>23896582
I guess SKIP characters have at least one good episode each (except YouP, such an eyesore). I think that's my problem with SKaRD. Somehow, Emi was the only compelling character in the show, beating Gento. Even Anri's best episode wasn't really about her character but those Cicade People being absolutely fascinating as characters.

Episode 20.
>>
>>23897257
the issue with Skard is that they were hyped up as the best of the best and had a giant fucking robot and they were one of the most incompetant attack teams ever.

Fucking MAT and TAC got more kills then those losers.
>>
>>23897357
it kinda sucks that we also get a character like Emi who was introduced as extremely capable and skillful only for her character to be a sad girl chasing ghosts
>>
>>23897413
Speaking of ghosts, did anyone feel the way fadoran was introduced felt contrived? Like it just existed just so blazar can get armor
>>
>>23897506
pretty much. i really thought it would be something deeper but yeah its just a fire dragon that came outta nowhere i guess. i really thought it was emi's dad reincarnated or mutated or something but no it's just blazar's pet apparently because of course he has a pet dragon

its so weird because Skard's inability to kill any monsters is brought up time and time again in the series, so I was sure it was going to lead to something. Maybe they get their asses in gear and rise to the occasion later on, or maybe because of the conspiracy angle, they're actually being sabotaged to look bad.

But nah, they just suck and them sucking is never resolved.

>>
>>23898374
It's fun. The gameplay feels a bit too jump happy for Godzilla type kaiju, but it works for Ultraman.

All the models made for toku characters are surprisingly good. There's this photo mode with various filters and options and you can make great shots there.

Game has an arcade mode, survival modes, usual versus mode and also various different types of multiple modes with different gimmicks.

Worst part is story mode in the base game feels incomplete. Eventually it got a conclusion but it was paid DLC made years later.

It's fun. It's kinda like the Pipeworks Godzilla games on crack. Very fast-paced, bouncy, party brawler-type action. And amazingly, they don't seem to be stopping with the DLC, so they keep adding more and more characters. Ultraman, Godzilla, Gamera... Past comments from the devs have said they want to add as many franchises as they can get their hands on.

I mean, if they still do recaps during the season, there's no way you'd see them increasing the number of episodes. First, we'd have to get a season without caps before there's even a chance they got for more episodes because right now they don't even actually make 25 episodes even if that's the official number (and there's still the uncounted 3 special recaps they could fill with real episodes).

You people gotta stop thinking longer shows = good. Kamen Rider and Sentai tend to fall off because of the year long format. Just settle with 3 cours.

this. people dont get that meandering can happen with shows that dont have enough of a solid concept. a show with no clear villain like blazar would have been painful in 50 episodes. more waves, more of earth garon being a jobber. a show like decker would have benefitted from 50 episodes to better develop the time travelling characters. trigger especially would have been stupid in 50 episodes

Ultraman was better back when it was longer, Gavan Infinity is a downgrade from the usual Sentai. 25 episodes isn't enough for non-miniseries Toku.
>>
>>23902677
That's just your nostalgia lens speaking. Be honest, you weren't born yet for those 50 eps series and has only binged them
>>
>>23902677
I think Ultra is best when it's a decent middle ground, like three quarters tops. Max is the perfect length.
>>
>>23902748
>three quarters tops. Max is the perfect length.
The Original Ultraman and Nexus as well with them being 39 and 37 episodes.
>>
>>23902527
Only if you assume the shows aren't toy commercials for kids to go kakkoi each week, which is what they are. They only "fail" if you take it as stories for western adults.
>>23902677
It was both better and longer because it had a bigger budget.

25 episodes again, ok. I just hope they give Teo a proper form change for a final form. Got a feeling they might just pull a ToQ-Rainbow though...

Don't be retarded, New Gen only started 13 years ago, Sentai kept doing 50 episodes until its recent hiatus, and Rider has been consistently using this format for over two decades and counting.

I like that Man is this elusive guy who everyone knows about but doesn't actually know what he does. as for Jack, we almost had something going for him in Arc, almost. it was so fucking close. he had RoU's title card. he had the pose. all for nothing. Imagine if Arc didnt waste 2 episodes on that shitty blazar second crossover. the first one was already good
>>

In all fairness Jack was meant to be the same being as the original Ultraman at first but was retconned into being his own thing later.
>>
>>23907922
Man feels like only exist as the mascot, he's the template.
Closest thing to the expansion of his lore was the ULTRAMAN manga, which an AU anyway.
>>
>>23907663
Mebius in general was sick
>>
>>23907922
I have this pitch for a "Son of Man" series.
TLDR the emotional arc isn't "Can I be as strong or great as my father" like Taiga or Zero.
It's "Can I be decisive like my father?"
>>
>>23908002
"Later" in this case means during his oiginal series itself. It was only in the planning stage where he was actually meant to be the same Ultraman.
>>
>>23908444
I may have been thinking of how he didn't have a name until after the series was over. Like for a while he was just "Return Ultraman" or "the second Ultraman" until he got the name Jack.
>>
>>23907922
Man was a sallary man, and has a wife and two kids, according to non-canon anime stuff.
>>
>>23908467
in RoU itself he was just called Ultraman, even though the Original Ultraman shows up IN that show later. Its weird.
