    You seem to be taken aback by the fact that there are Ultraman figures & toys in this movie but if you actually watched the older Showa & Heisei Ultraman shows, they also had Ultraman & Kaiju toys. In-universe, some toy companies just use Ultramen & the kaijus as source for their toys. After all, there's no right holders for Ultraman & the kaijus in their world and they won't get sued because of using their likeness (coz those Ultramen & kaiju won't even bother with legalities).

  • @MakoMattari
    @MakoMattari 3 месяца назад +12

    My understanding of the movie's plot in regards to Prof. Sato and Gigantron is that the big fight between the two 20 years in the past didn't have any major ramifications for Sato-- it was Ken, Emiko, and Onda whose lives were affected by it the most. Sato drove off Gigantron but Onda's families were casualties, and a later scene in the movie shows that the same very nearly happened to Ken and Emiko. I think the implications were that the battle was too much of a close call for the Sato family, so Emiko made the decision to raise Ken in America instead.
    Sato becoming disabled from an injury and retiring from his role as Ultraman is something that happened much closer to the start of the film's events (since the old lady said Ultraman was gone for months).

    Honestly I loved this movie. Arguably more than regular Ultraman.
    Not to say mainline Ultraman is bad. But at least in my experience a lot of Ultraman has a very deliberate pace. Largely governed by the fact that most of the major aspects of the world work off time limits. And while that's not a bad thing- I think it gives the series a distinct identity- it does come with the side-effect of making the trek episode to episode a bit dull for me, at least compared to how kinetic Sentai/Power Rangers and Kamen Rider can be. So consolidating that down to a movie helps a lot with the pacing, especially since this version of Ultraman has a bit more fluid timer.
    Past that it was a very fun and cute movie with some neat ideas. Also a very cool final fight.

    The shaking leg detail had the same effect on me. It's such a human thing to do, but it just seems to slip up writers/animators' minds when deciding what body language to use to portray a character's personality.

    I'll be real, i've never watched a Ultraman series. Always been more of a Rider fan. But holy shit this movie was amazing, and that spider-verse like animation was such a good choice. That final transformation scene when Ken gets the traditional transformation scene actually made me tear up with a little bit of joy. Also the akibaranger references were out of nowhere but a nice.

When I did a Google search for the cast, I couldn’t find anything, and that’s when I realized that this person was probably on the production team, so maybe I will see if that’s true or not.
