Ep 126 - That's Why They Call Him the Japanese George Clooney (Ultraman 80 48-50 | END)
Ep. 126
•
Covering: Ultraman 80 episodes 48 to 50
Ultraman 80 comes to close, and appropriately enough for this show, it's a pretty low-key ending compared to what has come before. Given everything, how do we feel about the show as a whole? And what is up with that cameo in the last episode?

StQ 38 - Who Gazes at the Gazers (Ultraman Omega 23-25 | END)
01:27:36|Covering: Ultraman Omega episodes 23 to 25Another year, another Skipping the Queue in the bag, and somehow Omega has delivered on being perhaps the best modern Ultraman season we've seen on account of just locking in and having a really strong final third, including its conclusion. This is in spite of the fact that, as we find out, this show is also the Surf Dracula of Ultraman.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps: 00:00 - Intro04:25 - Ultraman Omega discussion44:33 - Colour timers + capsule countdown46:25 - Kaiju rankings1:00:30 - Emails1:18:10 - OutroSources:Kaiju rankings

02:57:37||Ep. 131Covering: The Men Who Made Ultraman: Moon Ship in a Forest of StarsWe ring in the New Year by leaving the Showa era behind at the tail end of the 80s and watching the first Ultra thing of the Heisei era. What we get is a curious and interesting look at the franchise's self-mythologizing through a bona fide TV drama that gives us a pretty lengthy discussion. Considering it revolves around our main man Akio Jissoji, that's probably to be expected.Twitter | Bsky | YouTube | Ko-fiTimestamps:Ultraman Section00:00 - Intro06:30 - Production history41:05 - Movie discussion1:22:10 - The Making of Ultraman1:26:20 - Ultraseven episode 12 revisitedExtra Section1:29:20 - Saint Seiya1:35:10 - Assault Spy1:38:55 - Ganbare Goemon series (FC 1-2 + SFC 1)1:48:45 - River City Ransom / Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari1:53:05 - Trails in the Sky FC2:15:05 - No More Heroes (Switch)2:16:44 - Muv-Luv Alternative2:22:09 - Elden Ring (ft Nightreign)2:42:40 - Armored Core 42:46:50 - Air Combat2:55:00 - OutroSources:Ultra Blog DX - Unmade MoviesThe Making of Ultraman (relevant timestamp - 44m33)Some one's fan image of Shaider, I guess
