Ultraman

Like all foreign anime or film, watching it dubbed ruins in. Trust.

Watch this show and everything else in orignal language with subtitels. Add a star to all the other ratings if they have watched english.

The animation is fantastic. The story and dialog could use some help. The intelligence and fighting ability of characters change too drastically for no real reason. I'm not talking about when main character's awakened moment, that I have no problem with.

Ultraman shows that GitS SAC S03 is in good hands and Kamiyama is clearly back to his usual form after a one-out with Cyborg 009. IG technically adapted 7,5 volumes in 13 eps. but the story underwent occasionally major changes and streamlining, the revamped female lead is now an real character for example, so pacing isn´t a major issue. This is actually an improvement on the solid source manga and most of the CG work is fairly impressive for a TV budget. Extensive mo-cap was used and is clearly noticeable in the very fluid DMC style action scenes. Sign me up for S02 of this Christopher Nolan/Zack Snyder style gritty reboot of a 60s children show (!?!). This ain´t a complete joke btw. as the next manga arc has a 9/11-ish alien attack on NY.

I really liked it - another boy realisation anime but i like those.

My review is based on jap audio

Some of the voice actors are brilliant! I could listen to that alien all day! (In Japanese)

Genuinely very exciting in places, it's a cool series, superhero based, progressive. Yep.

Im 7 episodes in...and I don't know what the story even is yet. I got that that guy used to be ultraman and that when ultraman left he gave the man super human powers.. He then passed those powers down to his son. And They are fighting a robot that looks like ultraman, and some aliens which may or may not be related to this robot. And that is it. that is the whole story.

And of Course the animation blows really hard. You kinda get used to it when they are battling. But when they are just talkin...oh boy does it really stand out at just how bad the animation really is. But the battling is only a very small part of the show...so it mostly looks god awful.
