    I'm glad that Ultraman is getting a second chance in the US after years of copyright issues. It's amazing to think a series from 55 years ago has been going strong with new series once a year and I'd like to think the spirit or Eiji Tsuburaya would be proud to see his creation lasting far longer than he thought.

    Hideaki Anno, creator of Evangelion, has stated that there was no 3 minutes rule of the color timer being depleted in the original series until Ultraman Jack. Rather it was only deplete rapidly. It is mind blowing to watch back and not noticed such minor details.

    If Godzilla represent Japan's creation of nuclear destruction and a tragic villain, Ultraman represent Japan's creation for their country's bright future & hope as well as an inspiration of a hero. Without him, there will be no Kamen Rider and Super Sentai(aka Power Rangers) today. Even Evangelion was inspired from Ultraman.

      This kinda makes me wish we got a Ultraman series set after ww2. Where Ultraman (who would be like venom and Eddy Brock) defend a recovering Japan from monsters and aliens, as the ultra learns from humanity and the 2 become Japan’s greatest hope.

    So, as a fan of the genre my whole life, my spectrum was almost solely Godzilla and Gamera. However, going from con to Con and japan-centric stores i'd see all of these iconic monsters but never knew their context. It's amazing to me that their imagery alone is so powerful I know them by face but not by name. Well, I intend to remedy that now. you can say your videos inspired someone to go out and purchase the subject material.

    Hands down the best continuing franchise of all time. Beating out DC, star trek and star wars. For it's inspiration for it's message from space. The only thing I can compare it to for it's constancy of vision is Warhammer which brings the spectacle of a hellish, apocalyptic possible outcome of the human evolution to a bitter , tragic end. Where humanity has completely lost control and turns against itself like rabid animals, with a mad purpose, to kill everyone and come out on top, which is absolutely ridiculous and one of the reasons I place in the category of high regards because of it's ridiculousness. Just like with Ultraman, but in the direct opposite of the spectrum of light. A heroic race of Titans from the land of light. Who have reached the absolute, and help the lesser creatures man. ♥️

  • @princeblackelf4265
    @princeblackelf4265 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    One of the hardest things about Ultraman for me to get into it was the fact that Ultraman brutalized the kaiju, rather ruthlessly, and more often than not, the kaiju weren't evil, they were just large animals. It's easier to watch kaiju fight and kill each other, like in Godzilla or Gamera because it's two animals and one is clearly the good guy and one is clearly the villain.
    However, in Ultra Man, we have a large sapient humanoid who can make moral and ethical choices and often the kaiju are so tragic that it , for me personally, makes Ultraman look like a murderous bully. Now, clearly this concept is fully realized in Red Man more than Ultra Man proper,but these were feelings that I felt as someone who was very new to Ultraman, having grown up as purely godzilla/gamera watcher, and while I still hold some of that to be true to some extent ( like...if they Kaiju is clearly not in the same league as an Ultra and he's just playing around with them like a cat does with a mouse, that leaves a real bad taste in my mouth, just end the threat and be done with it. It feels sadistic) I do realize, especially after watching the Seabozu episode and seeing that Ultraman, and the series in general, struggles with all the death, made me feel better about the series as a whole
    That said, Ultraman Gaia is my favorite by default because he heals/saves/spares a lot of the kaiju and only the truly villanous ones are taken out

    • @nicodalusong149
      @nicodalusong149 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It's where Redman comes in. Every episode is like some comedic slasher flick where Redman kills the kaiju again or gets his ass beat for attempting to do so. It's such a joke in of itself that Ultraman Z makes a slight joke referencing the fact one of his forms suspiciously looks like a certain red character.
      Ultraman Z does basically come to the same conclusion as Gaia so that's good.

    The fact that Shin Ultraman's first appearance was grey at the beginning of the movie instead of his iconic silver & red color was a callback from the original design, the TV on that time was black & white color and its show's predecessor, Ultra Q(which was black & white TV color).

    As much as I’m not a fan of this series it is definitely had a very big
    Influence on toku and Kajiu And Henshin
    So I respect the series and did have some really good episodes later on
    And it makes me so happy how Ultraman is getting the best treatment it ever has in recent years
    Personally I’m really not a fan of this series especially compared to the series before and after Ultra Q and Ultraseven
    I just found the Attack team mostly boring the Kajiu are iconic but some of them are just Plan stupid imo and can get very boring especially for new fans
    But overall this is a amazing retrospective for this series that started one of the most underrated toku franchises

      @ericriley1985 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yup, Jirahs is the Godzilla suit spray-painted. In fact, the only reason why Jirahs even has a frill was because the head and body of the suit were mismatched: The body was the 1964 Godzilla suit (from Mothra vs. Godzilla) while the head was from the 1965 Godzilla suit (From Invasion of Astro-Monster). The frill was added to hide the fact that the two parts didn't match.

    Godzilla is symbolism of past mistake and present redemption however Ultraman is symbolism of enlightenment hope and everlasting dreams and also Ultraman is symbolism of courage, bravery, morality, respect, redemption, friendship, family, relationship, love, and sacrifice as we know many ultras in the series are symbolize like ultraman tiga in the past tiga who was become giant of light because of following yuzure's words geed had determine to change the destiny because of his father ultraman belial ultraman trigger his love to carmeara never betrayed but why trigger betrayed the giants of darkness why because of light and light is warm and harmless and for russo and blues brothers the love of their sister is equivalent to protect their sister at end in pre ultraman R/B series father of ultra and mother of ultra wanted to make their son taro to grew up as a good person that's why the meaning of ultraman a family a friendship and all good virtues to achieve because I'm a Filipino fan of ultraman godzilla and Kamen rider thank you eiji tsuburaya and thank you toei company
