Think Decker will get a full fledged movie, now that Shin Ultraman came out?
>>20934410I don't think Shinman 2 or Shin Seven is even passed preproduction so it'll probably get one.Then again, Tsubu probably wants to shill Imagination more and with toku series movies not making well in cinema anymore, it might just be
>>20934410>>20934414I personally don't, not until after we get New Gen Gaia. They gotta bring back the Superior universe at some point.Also, I heard rumors there will be a third GUTS-Select Machine coming in the second half of Decker. Is that true?
>Ultraman Trigger? More like Ultraman [beep]>Hahaha. Hell yeah.
>>20934420Probably not since it's nowhere found on 5ch
Shouldn't we getting Amazon listings for the next Mill Creek sets relatively soon? I'm curious to know what's releasing after Kids and Zearth
>>20934420So because there might be a crossover, there can't be another movie? Plus by then, I think Shinman 2 would have been done. That's like 2 years to go
I was at the Ultraman Connection Ultraman Max event yesterday, and I did get one notable bit of info from it. It's been hinted the Director's Cut of episode 15 and possibly 16 are going to be released in the Mill Creek boxset for Ultraman Max
>>20934468>IF and Mu episodesKEK
>>20934420There was a rumor that a bunch of stuff was at Bandai Toufair, including a third GUTS machine that combines with the other 2 to form a mech
>>20934420>Investor briefing at the Toy Show is over. Man.>A third jet plane in blue. It combines to become a robot.>The super item combines with the transformation item to become a sword. >The horn becomes bigger.Seems weird that we'd get 2 swords
>>20934487Guess it is true, if it's Toy Show. If Hawk is to Alpha and Falcon is to Gamma, this new GUTS Machine is the new Eagle Beta.
>>20934571even a poor machine translation would be better than just posting this image with no context, you dumb motherfucker, why do you assholes do this every fucking time? Fucking retard.
>>20934571My Japanese is terrible but I think it's saying the Terrafacer toy has some kind of dial that changes its mask.
>>20934571DX TerrafacerIt's a black death facer, 20 cm long.A TR buster can be created on the chest by deforming the shoulder armor.Arm extends to grab doll with magic hand The dial on the back changes the light emission of the mask
>>20934468Including that part where Max accidentally drop the car?
>>20934571>>20934607Are they not doing a new version of Mountain Gulliver?
>>20934625Deathfacer is just cooler
Anyone got the Decker OP?
>>20934654https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGCI1OPBJFU
>>20934468I wish Miike would make more Ultraman or even some Rider or Sentai instead the Magical Girl shows.
>>20934733Miike's best off with Ultraman. Rider and Sentai are too serialized for him to be able to make weird drive-by shitpost two-parters, which Ultraman can still afford to do by very intended design.
>>20934733>instead the Magical Girl shows.Isn't Girls x Heroine ending with the sixth series? Was that "2 girls 1 boy" group toku show (Rizta something) also by him?
>>20934768It is? Why, it doesn't sell well?
>>20934775Takara-Tomy never really tries to make tentpole toku shows since that's not really their primary interest. Look at all their other forays into toku - they all end after a few series, or in Ryukendo's case literally the only one.
>>20934775The latest series celebrated the franchise's 5th anniversary with some returning casts in some episodes. Honestly it was Takara Tomy's longest toku franchise so far, maybe they feel it's enough and just doing all-girls all the time would be repetitive eventually.
>>20934755>Sentai>serializedYou haven't watched many Sentai it seems.
>>20934487>>third blue jetBased. The GUTS Hawk name being an Ultra Hawk reference is coming along nicely. Of course the GUTS Eagle was also an Ultra Hawk reference
>>20934806Sentai is significantly more serialized than Ultraman. It still seems more episodic because Rider's right next to it, but Super Sentai still has a lot more forward moving serial structure compared to Ultraman where there will be entire stretches of very plot-agnostic episodes purely to just write an interesting short scenario.
>>20934755Miike won't fit current Ultraman, if we back to something like X then he could do it.
To those who watch Shin Ultraman, it's about Zarab. Why is he half of a body? Was he always like that and the reason he was wearing that disguise, or did he become that when he became a giant?
>>20934912>>20934912>Miike won't fit current Ultramanit's clear enough from his resume that he can work on anything from gory thrillers to "cheesy" girls shows so I don't know how you think even as "sanitized" as Ultraman is nowadays that he couldn't adapt to it, come on now
https://twitter.com/k2batto/status/1537933671281623040
Kane Kosugi is the first to pull off the toku triple, big props
>>20935370Wrong suit. That's Kamen Rider Chimera on the right, Kosugi is turning into a Kamen Rider Daimon.
>>20935370Kosugi is playing a different Rider than Chimera
>>20935402>>20935405oopsies
>>20935370Wasn't GoGreen an Ultra and a Rider too?
>>20935411From GoGoV? No, but GoBlue has played two Riders and a Sentai Member, there's also Agul's actor who was a Kamen Rider in Ryuki.
>>20935411GoGreen is Kamen Rider Delta, no Ultraman role
>>20934395Why are you listing all the links twice if they are already in the Pastebin? Just to justify having a big messy OP?
impregnating yoko-senpai...
>>20935567>"I will marry the person that beats me in arm wrestling">Haruki beats her >Haruki fucking runs off with Z
>>20935717To be frank, Haruki and Yoko are technically "married" after Z, just that Haruki's new mission is traversing the multiverse. This is why I see Haruki as the parallel to Mebius if he travels to the Superior universe someday.
>>20935760What
Katsu-Nii in Donbros next week
>>20935896that wig is fucking atrocious, is it made from treebark?
>>20935957I think that's his actual hair.
>>20935370Congratulations
>>20935896>he was Ultraman Rosso so spray his hair with red
>>20936004https://bandaicandy.hateblo.jp/entry/2022/06/18/092500
>>20935717I just assume they got married off screen and it'll be referenced in a one off scene, audio drama or stage show
>>20936172Or... They never did and it's just a one off joke
>>20935208kek
>>20936172That makes sense. Z and Haruki keep having things just happen off screen lately.
>>20936262No it doesn't. Haruki is said helping to rebuild a planet. He's no expert in land development so it's obvious that he was helping with population reproduction. Not a job for a married man
Is this really supposed to be Zero's Mom?>https://twitter.com/PlayApex/status/1537882631773122561?t=tZcKlVlWRm9M8Bp1BoRvKQ&s=19
>>20936312No fucking way
>>20936312are you retarded or what? its literally a skin from a fucking apex and not even tsupro collab. they're just doing a super hero themed one.
>>20936334Relax he's just making a joke
>>20936354ok im going to laugh now
https://twitter.com/bbbb_fex/status/1538374574366425089
Coulda gone pro if I hadn't joined the Inter Galactic Defense Force . I'm not one of those Absolutian pansies. I could break the Ultra King in two with my bare hands!
Went home from watching Top Gun: Maverick and immediately started rewatching Ultraman the Next just because one of the tracks from The Next sounds quite similar to Top Gun's main theme.I hope Tsuburaya does some kind of redo of the movie. It doesn't have to be Ultraman. I just really loved how they tied the protagonist being a pilot with The Next's ability to fly.
>>20937116were you referring to this?https://youtu.be/qkpF_Y-KgiM?t=53
>>20937120Yep, that. I very much doubt it's a coincidence too since the movie starts with an F-15J taking off with the same track.Top Gun: Maverick starting with Pete taking off in that Darkstar plane and then crashing it in the middle of nowhere also reminds me a lot of Maki coming across some restaurant after being in contact with The Next.
>>20937116One thread ago someone posted Dyna's first episode have similarities with the original Top Gun.
>>20934395What ever happened to Matt Frank's Izenborg comic?
>>20937672what's izenborg?
>>20937286It did, and it was fucking awesome. I hope Tsuburaya makes a show with that kind of start again after the TDG reboots
>>20938000Maybe episode 1 of Decker has similarities to Top Gun: Maverick
Anyone happen to save a link to Shin Ultra Fight Episode 3?
https://realsound.jp/movie/2022/06/post-1055434.htmlSpeaking of Top Gun it seems that with Maverick and Shin Ultraman the japanese started talking more about The Next, the dvd sales even reached top 1. They talk about how it was released at the wrong moment and how it would have been a hit at the box office.
>>20938064Good, because The Next was amazing. It's a crime it didn't do very well.
>>20938087I don't think The Next is a very good movie at all. What do you see in it?
>>20938183same, its fine but nothing amazing
>people are freaking out over one actor appearing in ultraman, rider and sentai>the fucker who played ichiro in godzilla's revenge was on kamen rider, godzilla, ultraman, sentai and gamera
>>20938609Not just appearing, anon. He's transforming too. Try and find anyone else who has transformed to all three Sentai, Ultra and Rider. None, Kane is the first one in all 46 years
>>20938638Yeah well, did Kane make friends with Godzilla?
>>20938609Both Kotaro and Hayata were in Heisei Godzilla movies
>>20938639He was in Final Wars. Not as cool but that's basically getting your team a free kick after doing a hat trick
>>20938647"Hey watch it X-Man!" fucking love that line so much.
I'm hoping there will be rise sequences for Decker Strong and Miracle Type. As neat as it was that Trigger went back to in-universe form changes akin to early Heisei, I kinda feel it was one of the reasons Trigger Power and Sky Type didn't stick out for me as much as previous New Gen alternate forms have.
>>20938764Didn't help that Dyna's type changes are obscured by effects while Tiga changing colors are pretty unique.Plus it's pretty annoying to see Kengo going Multi only to change to Power or Sky immediately when he should've done that in the first place.
You fuckers use Ultra Wiki? Use Ultra Series Wiki, we only cover the Ultra series and are affiliated with Tokupedia and friends.
>>20938810No, I use the nip wiki. You know, because they actually have contents
>>20938821UltraSeriesWiki has more information then Ultra Wiki can ever have.
>>20938824Not as much as nips wiki. You know, where it comes from nips instead of gaijins
>>20938826But you can't read Japanese, so UltraSeriesWiki has the best source of information.
>>20938829Who says I can't?
>>20938831The Ultraserieswiki.
>>20938833But that wiki is full of liars. They said Mebius is Melos' son
>>20938183I personally really like the lead. Maki being a family man and just a JSDF pilot is a nice change of pace. The creature effects are really good. Which is par for the course, but I just really like The One's design. I like how relatively down to Earth the setting is. Well, at least at face value. Which is something I like about the Ultra N works in general. It's by no means a perfect movie, but it's pretty solid.
>>20938810>"This is going to be a banger spread of misinformation"
>>20934623"Aged like a fine wine" gets thrown around, but damn, they all look great.
>>20938915>>20934623https://twitter.com/hasebehitomi/status/1538760163771174913
>>20938882>>20938933She's still so pretty.
>the shin beta spark sold out instantly>zenmarket couldnt get mine ordered in timeFUCK. Damn chinkscalpers found a way despite bandai region locking the site. Was looking forward to finally having a beta spark. I guess that saves me money though. It was a little overpriced with the lack of features it has. No BGM, no voicelines, just the standby and transformation.
Bros...I'm not on deck with Decker...
>>20939045Don't worry, anon. Low expectations mean less disappointments
>Trigger transforms with a gun>Decker transforms with a deck of cardsNew Gen Gaia is going to use gears and be called "Gearinrear" or something isn't he?
>>20938980Use a VPN and order yourself through tenso, no shopping service is fast enough for items that sell out immediately.
>>20939046this, but at least the lead doesn't sound like a faggot
>>20939058It'll be whistles. And Zenkai came after Z so I actually am expecting for Sentai to use cards if they live to see next year>>20939091And actually good looking
>>20937116>I just really loved how they tied the protagonist being a pilot with The Next's ability to fly.An aviation kaiju movie would be rad. Just put a squadron of F-15's against a giant bird monster and call it a day.
>>20939119Say what you will about Godzilla King of Monsters, Rodan's debut and subsequent flight and fight against Monarch was rad and that was as close to an aerial kaiju movie as we got
So, fav New Gen Rise so far?
>>20939272The original ginga rise, it just looks so dumb that it circles right back around to being greatHelps that it's forever stuck in my head from the shot of lugiel knocking him out of it in the last ep
>>20939087I used to have a p-bandai account but back when they started doing the region locking for the site they banned a bunch of accounts that used middleman addresses, including mine.
>>20939272when do we see Z's Base form Rise sequence?
>>20939358It was in Trigger
>>20939272I dunno why, but Trigger's rise pose being a vertical Chinese-style fist instead of a horizontal one feels weirder than the open-hand ones from Ginga, Geed, and Taiga.
>>20939272Taiga
>>20939374Like everything Trigger, it's a copy of Tiga's
>>20939607Even Tiga's is more diagonal.
>>20939099Kengo kun is good looking
>>20939611YA BUT YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE IT INFLUENCED TRIGGER'S, MR SMARTY PANTS.
>>20939058>>20939099I think that New Gen Gaia's henshin device will be like a knuckle that doubles as a belt buckle, possibly with capsule similar to fullbottles
>>20938882What misinformation. Ultra Series is the most complete informational database of the Ultraman franchise on any wikipedia.
>>20939793They wouldn't do belt to avoid clashing with Rider. The only time Bandai let someone else do belt is Zyuranger when KR went off air
>>20938810Tokupedia? You mean where they literally make shit up?
>>20939272I like Ginga and Triggers
>>20938810Tokupedia wikis are ass. I remember one of their editors came to /ssg/ once to share some """obscure trivia""" about how GMK Baragon's suit actress played Gao White, which was was patently untrue and I proved with agency cast listings, but they refused to change it.
https://en.tsuburaya-prod.co.jp/news/4532 >Ultraman Will Battle a Kaiju Invasion During Multiple Appearances at the Anime Expo 2022 Convention July 1 – 4
>>20939961Knuckle would be different from a belt because it's not fixed to the waist. Were you envisioning something like the Ixa Knuckle?
>>20940315You're the one who said double as a belt buckle
>>20940319You think Riders wear their belts around casually? That's only in KR The First and KR The Next
>>20940322Oh, so you mean like having the MC stash his transformation device as a buckle? I don't know, that doesn't sound as good as the typical holster.
>>20938836I liked the family man angle too, but I found the film overall dull. Nobody in the cast stuck out. The cinematography didn't do much for me. I love Nexus, but The Next felt a bit ho-hum to me. I might rewatch it before Shin when Shin finally comes out on streaming.
>>20939961Man remember when it looked like the RB Gyro was gonna be a belt. It looked so fucking cool
>>20934395Last minute announcement by Anime ExpoAnime Expo: Ultraman is coming to the United States for the FIRST TIME EVER! See this celebrated superhero Ultraman and his cohorts perform in live shows and personal appearances at #AX2022.https://twitter.com/AnimeExpo/status/1539005187951575041
>>20940503>Ultraman live show in the USA:D>at some nerd retard n00b loser festD:
RIDE ON TIME GO DECKER!! TAMASHIII NII TENKA!!
>>20940324Knowing Ultra the device would cloak as a conventional buckle when not in use
>>20940528We viewers still see it. If it's anything like Cross-Z Magma Knuckle, it'll be too big for a buckle
>>20940545Not to mention, it needs to have a good playability as a toy. Having something that large would be uncomfortable as a buckle.

>>20940576>weapon includedWHY DON'T YOU DO THE SAME THING FOR THE SHF, FUUUUCKKK BANJEWW NAMCOCKK
I don't like Zero.
>>20940576Where was that retard faggot anon who doubted the ironheng post again LMAOOOOO
>>20940653pretty sure they were just insulting the person back because they pointlessly decided to insult the manga kits
>>20940576
>>20940759>>20940576>almost 0 stckersI always new Ultra would be perfect for model kits
>>20940763
>>20940763Don't get your hopes up too high, this was also their selling point for Figure Rise Black and it had a bunch of stickers in the end.
>>20940771Oh man, that sucks. I had heard Kuuga and Agito were pretty light but I guess there'll be some then.Wonder how they'll do deckers head and chest piece
>>20940759I wonder if Zero's armor thing triggers trypophobia in some people.
>>20940755Nah he was saying how there was no indicator it was a FRS kit whatsoever. And also he got butthurt because the guy also mentioned ironman
>>20940515Where else would you host it?
>>20940503They're doing a whole metaplot throughout the con involving Baltan and Dada arriving to wreak havoc, and Ultraman and UltraSeven will arrive to battle them alongside other several currently unlisted characters, with Sean Nichols (from Ultraman Max) being the host.It's mostly confined to the opening ceremony and Tsuburaya's panels though it says a bunch of kaiju are gonna be wandering the halls throughout the con, so there's probably an auidence participation aspect
It's a shame Trigger was such a middle of the road series because Trigger Dark is one of the best designs the franchise has put out in years.
>>20940979I disagree. It looks like a messier Atrocious
>>20940979Still hoping Mutpo takes on lead design after Gayer/Guyver
Seeing as how people still makes videos of FE3 (and Rebirth) shows that people really want a new console Ultraman game. I wonder if TsuPro knows but lack the funds to finance the project?
>>20940849Personally I would have preferred G-Fest, then Power Morphicon or something similar, then anime cons.I understand the logic behind hosting the debut at the largest audience, but like anon said, awfully lotta retards in those kind of fests
>>20941068>Power MorphiconI know it'll fit better but ewww
>>20941072Yeah I know. The choices are slim unless TsuPro decides to do its own con.
>>20941061The best bet would just be to team-up with Platinum and throw some cash behind Project P and make it "official" to test the waters
>>20941085International Tsubu-Con maybe?
>>20939058Gearsplender, I guess? Should be a glove that can load discs or something, though we do have something similar to discs already with Ultra Medals...Say, different topic, but does anyone see Godmars as some sort of prototype to Ultraman Nexus, with how much they treat Nexus as a punching bag time and again, with lots of suffering for the main protagonist?
>>20940771>bunch of stickers>stickers one would not use except for the belt anyway if they have the paints for itAnd?
>>20941205That would be great but again, I dunno if TsuPro got the money or the will for it.I remember the videos of TsuPro conventions in China and those look awesome as fuck, but China is an already established fanbase and proven money maker. The west still looks down at toku in general as "Power Ranger" shit so it would be a hard sell to have Tsubu-Con beyond Asia. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it will be an uphill battle.Anime cons are the closest thing to toku and anime has an established fanbase in the west, so it makes all the sense in the world to piggyback off that popularity. TL;DR western expansion is hard
>>20941303Animecons also work really well given all the cosplayers, makes it easier to provide additional exposure when cosplayers want pics with Ultras/Kaiju
https://nyaa.si/view/1544387>mfw that last track on disc 2shiro sagisu is such a fucking god, i hope i can see shinman soon
>>20941225Congratulations on moving goalposts that had no goal.
does anyone have ultraman trigger vital bracelet evolution chart
>>20940979That's what happens when you give a great design to a shit character like Ignis. If they made akito trigger dark we would've seen a more intense rivalry. Frankly speaking Ignis should've never went beyond comic relief
>>20941516?
>>20940979agreed! Also one of the best characters as of late I feel, his story just brought me back to the days of Himeya Jun and his rivalry with Mizorogi, here being Ignis and Hudram, just EXTREMELY CONDENSED. But it was good... it was SOULFUL

What Ultraseven lacks in team chemistry and fun writing compared to it's predecessor it makes up in just the most absurd fucking shit you can imagine. Anyways what's with Showa Era Toku and crucifixion?
>>20942119>ZMassacre all kaiju, no exceptions.
>>20943570Eiji Tsuburaya was catholic.
>>20943570Crucifixion looks cool and Asians don't have the same kind of religious hang-ups that westerners have
>>20943570>Anyways what's with Showa Era Toku and crucifixion?it looks cool
>>20942820How did that other guy get so big?
>>20943570>Ultraseven lacks in team chemistryDo you fags just start talking about shows you didn't watch or what?
Does anyone have the shin ultraman ost yet?
>>20943821yeah it's good, you're missing out.
With both Neos and Cosmos releasing in September, it implies the last of the Mill Creek Ultraman boxsets will be released no later than December
>>20943944Which series will Nexus be double-featured with?
>>20943944Pray for Millcreek to get a deal so they can release Taiga to Decker.
>>20943961Ultraman the Next would already be included in the set since it's the series prequel. Otherwise, I don't think we're getting any double featured shows unless they choose to release it alongside Max in the same month
>>20943772I'm watching the show right now, mate. This cast has nothing on Ultraman's cast, Ide and Arashi have more chemistry together in episodes that have no focus on them being together than actual episodes in Ultraseven where the Ultra Guard is written to be more friendly and understanding to one another. Although i do like Dan better than Hayata, at least Dan has the excuse of being an alien that's just trying his hardest to seem human, other than that there's nothing about the Ultra Guard that stands out, and it's even worse when they're together.
>>20943570Christianity might as well be alien religion to the Nip, only 1-2% of their population today are Christian IIRC.
>>20943582thisand>>20943650thisone of the big lessons Japan took from missionaries is that crucifying people is metal af>>20944065it's the cool way to get married, too
>>20943971I'm grateful for what we have, but it really doesn't feel like Millcreek cares one way or another what happens with the series. We have poor quality cases, and they dropped the digital redemption codes already.If anything, pray that TsuPro gets a deal with Millcreek to keep releasing.
I know the Chinese love Tiga but do they really like Zero that much that they get exclusive Zero figures?
>>20944151Buddy, they got an exclusive Zerorok. What do you think?
Heaps of cards wow
>>20944166Cards are easy to make, so we're gonna get one for every possible tangentially related Ultra thing. THere's gonna be cards for every type of Shodai helmet and every color of Ripya.
>>20943739>How did that other guy get so big?Shin Mephilas' doing
>>20944145The digital codes stopped because Mill Creek shut down their digital service, I think after the deal ends Shout Factory will get Tsuburaya license.
>>20944339I know they shut down the app, but moviespree is still available through browser, but is that just for the sake of maintaining what services they had?
>>20941896>It's the most accurate wiki to date on Tokusatsu.Meanwhile...>>20902245
>>20944339Oh boy, 75 dollars for a 20 episode series.

When Kanata, who decided to protect the people, jumped into the enemy, and then he was surrounded by a divine light.16 July 2022 - Episode 2Kanata, who entered the TPU training school to become a member of GUTS-SELECT, trains with Ryumon and others. Kanata collides with Ryumon because of his difference in thinking.

>>20945017>>20945018https://en.tsuburaya-prod.co.jp/news/4537Kengo Manaka left Earth ten years ago after his battle against the Giants of Darkness. Now, he protects people from a new threat; Sphere! After obtaining a golden blade, the “Ultra Dual Sword”, a vision of danger flashed through his mind. Taking the Ultra Dual Sword, now in the form of “Ultra Dual Key” in hand, Ultraman Trigger departs for Decker and the new members of GUTS-Select.Kengo can summon the Ultra Dual Sword by equipping the Ultra Dual Key in his GUTS Sparklence. He can also attach the Ultra Dual Key to the sword’s hilt and scan Ultra Dimension Cards to unleash various special attacks.Expect to see more of the Ultra Dual Sword as it passes from Trigger to Decker, and from Kengo to Kanata.
>>20945028I guess the light helps you not aging
>>20945028I haven't kept up much, but is this the first time a gimmick has passed from a previous series to a new series while the new gimmick is still going?
>>20945040Nope. Ginga S to X
>>20945028>>20945036So the setting is 10 years after Trigger huh?Not 4 years like this anon said >>20929062
>>20929057Was this said in the trailer? The official website can mess up too
>>20945023Huh, when Trigger uses it the guard is closed
>>20945072
>>20945040Story-wise it's from Trigger but the toy is still newly made for Decker.
I wonder if the Twin Sword will make it all the way to Gayer. My guess is Trigger will end up taking on a bigger role in the second half of the show and they'll both use half the sword.Could then pass it on to Gayer and New Gen Agul
https://twitter.com/toweling3/status/1525079496663044096
>>20945017Liking the new outfit or did he use it on Trigger's movie? Haven't seen that yet.
>>20945155Even if it gets passed on it won't be a big gimmick by that point, just a minor element for the team up episode.
>>20945155Anon don't act like his name won't be Kaiser or Geyser
do you simp for her anon?
>>20945394my new autistic gf
>>20945403
>>20945005Probably like the first scene of Dyna with Ryo being the trainer to rookies including Asuka
>>20945155>My guess is Trigger will end up taking on a bigger role in the second halfI hope not, I couldn't deal with another season of Kengo.
>>20945155What twin sword? The Ultra Duel Sword? He'll just give it to Decker and fuck off until the finale
>>20945353I was thinking Guyver
>>20945566were you really tho
>>20945537Yeah those guys. Seems like it's gonna split in half given the huge ass seam, though maybe it'll connect to the D-Flasher instead
>>20945353His name is Gayer until proven otherwise.
>>20945610I think that's just the aesthetic. I doubt it will actually split
>Wikia faggotryI would sooner trust /m78/ telling me boldface lies than giving a shit about dragondragon and his cohorts having a piss fight about hearsay shitty translations. Tvtropes is a better source of info and at least they don't have a stick up their asses as often as wikia fags
>>20945610The tip of the sword doesn't seem to have any seam though, so I kinda doubt that it will split open like a giant scissors. Then again, Trigger's shitty ass sword split open so who knows.
>>20945610The seam could open up to show Gayer's color timer via an attatchment, given that it currently goes, Trigger when closed, Decker when open
>>20945155intriguing. Although i kinda hope the new equivalents to Gaia and Agul are set in another universe. the whole lore in Gaia itself never really fit with the Tiga-Dyna world and its why it was best as standalone.>>20945518I'm an Ignis fanboy so I would like if instead Trigger Dark had a bigger role in any way during Decker lmao.
>>20945017>>20945028I'm interested to see Kengos role in this since it seems like a big enough threat that 2 ultras could help a lot. Maybe Mars colonization has progressed greatly in the time gap so they each need to protect a planet
>>20945403She has a threatening aura.
>>20945875We know the Sphere is gonna prevent all space travel to and from Earth somehow, he will probably show up then be locked out.
Who is the sexiest female kaiju and why are they Bogal and Birdon
Jeff Gomez is on Twitter saying that Haruki is gonna be in Decker, but it was a few hours after the Kengo reveal, so he might've just been confused
>>20945900She's too tiny to threaten
Honestly, what an amazing finale, just absolutely speechless. I've no idea how they're going to top this, but as i said before i'm in it for the long run, time for the Return of Ultraman.
>>20945518Tsubu: people loves Kengo so Decker’s MC will also be a Kengo. Double Kengo special!!
>>20946118>people loves Kengodo they really? Why?
>>20944554They still don't need to charge 75 dollars for a super sentai series with direct from vhs quality.
>>20946118Based, adult men seething to Kengo is hilarious
>>20946132He cute
>>20946256
>>20946178What did Kengo do to them?
>>20946263He triggered them
>>20946263READY TO PULL THE TRIGGER

>>20946178> adult menWrong, and I found him so annoying I couldn't even enjoy the thing going on between him and Akito. He's just too much and not in a fun way.
>>20946357it has a cape..
>>20946111>I've no idea how they're going to top thisThey never did.They just used Seven's finale as the template for later shows from Heisei onward.
>>20946178It’s like complaining about jimmy neutron saying brain blast lmao, like what is a catch phrase
>>20944938lotta fanfiction depicting this exact situation
>>20946479>what is a catch phraseA catch phrase doesn't have to be annoying, Haruki came right before and his wasn't bad.
>>20946512It wasn't annoying, and if it was I still wouldn't be complaining about it a year later.
>>20946526>about it a year later.Annoying characters don't stop being annoying just because time has passed, it would be fine if Ultra shows were unconnected but the way they work now is that if you dislike a character, you're stuck with them for the foreseeable future.
>>20946428Well, that's a discouraging thing to read. I hope at least the next shows keep up the quality.
>>20946547Except he wasn't annoying. And he's not going to say his catchphrase every 5 seconds when he returns for a bit.
>>20946555He was super grating throughout the entire show, I don't understand the people that say he got less annoying after the first few episodes
>>20946597Nta but he really didn’t use his catchphrase a lot after the beginning and I never found anything he did super grating. I actually wish he more stuff going on since my problem was I wanted to see his relationship with carmeara more in the second half
>>20946626*had
>>20946553Well, it's called The Greatest Invasion in History after all.Don't take it as the overall quality got worse after Seven or something, I just think they never managed to create a better finale scenario since Seven. In fact probably Mebius' objectively has the better execution because you actually care about the team and side characters, while in Seven Anne is the only one with an actual emotional connection to Dan. So I think I should take it back, they did top it by improving upon Seven's finale, but they never managed to create a different finale scenario that's better or as good.You will see that all finales of Showa shows are wildly different from one another, while from Heisei forward they all share many similar story beats. Like they didn't use the 'Ultra losing against the final boss and get seriously injured but then wins in the rematch' motif again until Tiga, then every shows after that followed that to some degree. It isn't a bad thing anyway.
>>20946687Thanks for the more in-depth reply, anon. I saw in the wiki that Akio Jissoji only writes one episode in Return of Ultraman, which is sad because he's by far the better director the series has, all the episodes he's made in Ultraman and Ultraseven are easily my favorites of the respective shows. What you've said is really encouraging though, i was wondering how much the writing would improve in later shows regarding the team and side characters and i'm glad to hear things are better executed.
>>20946512Osu isn't a catchphrase.
Kengo is an embodiment of toxic positivity. You can't just smile, smile your way out of everything
>>20946734Sakamoto did the something similar with Gentaro/Fourze yet most people liked him.
>>20946744That's because Gentaro is cool. Unlike Kengo, who only wants you to smile and only smiling. Gentaro wants to be your friend and will die for you
>>20946734Kengo is still a better protagonist than other main characters like Daigo and Haruki.
>>20946734He actually learned the opposite in a good way meeting ribut, since he was too focused on being the “chosen one” and was too serious, until being able to learn to enjoy his time as both human and ultraman. I like fourze but him and ghost literally hugged some villains until they became good
>>20946744Gentaro actually did things to befriend each one of them like going all the way to meet JK's dad to learn JK's song, helping Daimonji with prom, and literally letting Ryusei beat him to death. Kengo did jack squat in the entire show beyond the typical protag shit except at the very end getting that All Star Superman end.
>>20946386Sorry, didn't mean to misgender sister
>>20946687>>20946700I'd say the best finales in the series that I've seen are Seven, 80, Tiga, Gaia, Max, Mebius, Ginga S, Orb, and Geed. All of them are excellent in their own ways
>>20939119Imagine a fucking single F-16 getting into a dogfight with a Kaiju, Ace Combat style
>>20937116Can't all Ultramen fly? How does that change anything?
>>20946781Kengo wasn't about befriending people, he was just a positive person who took the responsibility of becoming an Ultraman too seriously with him asking Haruki a bunch of questions on what it means to be an Ultraman or overheating as Glitter Eternity since he took that responsibility too seriously. It's kinda the same personality but it's not the same character.
>>20946834He was supposedly about bringing smiles to everyone. Which, yes, isn't quite the same as befriending people, but in the end it felt like a very surface trait, not different from how most heroes would act.
>>20946876Sure, I mean the general principal of making people happy as a hero is kind of inherent, but that's more so on the decision of Sakamoto to choose that as Kengo's trait. I agree it could've been fleshed out more (maybe will be in Decker) but I just wanted to point out that there were examples of him developing himself, and in turn at least being able to bring those smiles to his core friends and Carmeara at the end. Good discussion though, I appreciate how we're able to talk about it without shitflinging at each other
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7KBM470FF4First 10 minutes of Shin Ultraman, soon.
>>20946900That being said people acting like Kengo says smile smile as much as he uses the Zeperion Beam are dumb>>20946952>6 hoursTime for bed
>>20946957>That being said people acting like Kengo says smile smile as much as he uses the Zeperion Beam are dumbTo me the worst is that he didn't use it in the show, but rather during the commercials of the Blu-Ray or something where he just kept pressuring Akito to say it and it's the most annoying variant of smile smile ever.

>>20946975You didn't just skip the commercials?, I don't like the catchphrase either but you made your own boat there.
>>20947113I love the commercials, closest thing to feel like watching Saturday morning cartoon again. It's just the smile, smile one sticks out like a zit.
>>20946990Seriously, that fucking pitch. He didn't even sound like that in the series proper.
When is Decker gonna start? I usually watch the first few eps of a new ultra

>>20946990AHHHHH 15 SECONDS IM GOING INSANEEEE it’s seriously not that bad
>>20946957I find the people complaining about his catchphrase more annoying and frequent then the actual catchphrase and it’s amount of use in the show. It’s like the people who constantly complain about sentai/rangers gold/silver sixth ranger
>>20947194Just smile, smile anon
>>20947195Smiiiiiiileeee
>>20947182That one was actually tamer, the first one is heaps more annoying.
>>20945633you do realize that the wiki staff read /m78/, right?Also, who tf is dragondragon?
>>20947194Yeah it was funny in past threads when like for 3+ episodes in a row he never even used it, but people just had to come out of the woodwork so we could hear them say that they didn’t like it!
>>20947280Why do you think he say it? What those people gonna do, call him names?
>>20947284Smile, smile, anon you little shit!!!!!!!!!!!

Y'all act like lovecraftian horrors such as Gatanothor are OP when their power level is probably linked to people's shared belief in its perceived destructive ability. Would Tiga still have won if there was an equal amount to people believing in Gatanothor's darkness to counteract childrens' belief in his light?
>>20947483I hope this means Noa suit as new DLC for the mobile gameThey'll probably give him fin funnels or some crazy shit like that
Shin crossover with Gozilla Battle Line
Y'all, I hate Ultraman
>>20947441>>20947467I wonder how Shin Kamen Rider will throw a connection in
>>20947507Maybe that one government guy will pop up. I don't think they'll mention any kaiju though
>>20947511I was going to suggest that Great Leader is one of those ShinGoji humanoids
>>20947520That's too much. Although, having one of their bodies in the background, as if hinting to Shocker studying them, will work
>>20947525>The cape and bandages will do nothing to cover-up the lizard person underneath
>>20947529No, I mean the idea that those humanoids are so capable that they can create a powerful world domination organization. That's like a whole other movie, not to mention Shin Goji was just out a hurting animal, why would his spawn suddenly wants to conquer the world, you weirdo.
>>20947531His body is frozen and taking a long time to thaw, those humanoids spawned to carry his consciousness in a form that can more easily mimic humans and likely evolved a higher level of intelligence as they are considered a separate, higher evolutionary stage than the larger main body
>>20947538Now we're just getting to fanfiction domain.Look, if Shin Ultraman shows us anything, it'll just be a quick nod or an easter egg. Something to shove in the background
There isn't gonna be a Shin crossover, cameo and Easter eggs is what we will get and that's for the best.
>>20947507I thought one of Shin Ultraman spoilers is a news about Man-Spider to connect it with Shin KR.
Another Gene Preview

>>20948084Nice, I've needed a new Ultra manga since Lili ended and returning to Reionics is long overdue.
>>20948084>>20948086>>20948088Wait is this a right to left manga or a left to right comic?
>>20948084So is the main dude not actually a host? Or is he Geeds host?
>>20948210He's a Reionic aka Kaiju Trainer.
Thoughts on the 10 minute preview
>>20948288Make me wanna watch the full movie
>>20948088Shit my bad. I forgot to upload this last preview image.
Next was kind of underratedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZS081Behng
>>20947541Shin Gomess is just Shin Gojira with extra plates, at least the original Gomess suit changed the skin to be more seal-like
>>20948518Yeah, and it's also a reference to the OG Gomess suit being a kitbash of Goji. It's that 'if you know, you know' reference that we'll see at most, definitely not some dumb bullshit like Godzilla being the Great Leader.
>>20947485Stop posting, Gatanothor.
>>20948571Y'all can suck my dark, dark, dick
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORiW0h0yYH4
>>20948561It wouldn't be a literal connection, it could just be the design being reused for Great Leader as the Easter Egg itself much like Gomess
>>20948611Not how you phrased it. Beside, the Great Leader already have his own design that they can modernized. If you really want a Goji reference so much, there's always him
>>20948669>Humanoid Gojis attack humans with footballs
>>20947507>>20947511Rather than Godzilla, I think it'd be more likely to tie in with Shin Ultraman's alien lore stuff in a vague way where no names are mentioned, if Anno decides to go with the Great Leader as an alien like in Stronger or Skyrider.
>>20938821Link to nip wiki?>>20946833Flight is a thematic tether to the host of the film's aspiration and the love for his son. It's well-drected, soundtrack a bit inconsisten but has some fucking incredible moments, and the suit effects are top notch. It's just a cool take.

>>20949076He better. He was New Gen Dyna before the concept is even a thing
>>20949082Pretty much yeah. He's the second Ultra in the Reiwa era and also has that front swoop crest like Seven and Dyna. That kinda gets me thinking. The second entry of each era are also the most kino
>>20949125If Decker ends up bad, we must kill the emperor. Then we just need to survive NG Gaia
>>20949174Second ultra in the reiwa era is Z not Decker. Reiwa era was 2019, not 2021. Taiga was the first. I guess technically Z is the 4th Ultra in the era.
