Cosmos - Nexus - Max definitely doesn't feel nearly as cohesive of a unit as the TDG shows do, but Max absolutely feels like the predecessor to Mebius.

Alien Shaman sucks and is annoying, but also I feel like his inclusion was necessary for this to be a proper Showa tribute series. Not every episode had an immediately iconic foe like Eleking or Mefilas. Sometimes it was about a monster that made you pee.

I've never met a firetruck I couldn't trust.

If Transformers fans think that CHUG has become too broad an acronym, I hereby propose a new one for the current era of Generations.

SLAP.

Thanks!

Every once in a while I hit an episode that stops the binge in its tracks and kinda forces me to take a minute to really sit with it. This is one of those.

Max Episode 15 comfortably takes its place in the pantheon of all-timer Ultraman episodes. It's basically all here. The tragedy, the hope, the science fiction ideas mixed with a fairy tale sense of wonder all wrapped up in one beautiful package. This is what it's all about.

Ultraman Xenon appears to ask the question "what if Zoffy had better timing?"

This episode rules partially because you can tell the team behind it were traumatized by Zetton as kids. They give him so much presence.

Start the fire.

Finally got to see Ultraman Arc The Movie! It was good! Arc was the first Ultraman show I started, so getting to come back to this world and it's characters was really nice, felt like we hadn't really missed a beat. Good stuff all around.

The opening theme playing while Max chokes a bug so hard it starts frothing at the mouth is how you know he's truly cast from the Seven mold.

"Cosmo diva" is an incredible name for an island-breaking superweapon.

The Godzilla Fest shorts are all really cool and I'm glad they're continuing but also every time they come up I can't help but wonder what the inside of those 20+ year old suits must smell like.

Interestingly enough, while Godzilla ended his original Heisei series with the introduction of Burning Godzilla, the staff at Daiei chose to end the Showa Gamera films by burning Gamera.
