Hell, he doesn't even talk at all! Regardless, Tomoya kicks Hikaru's ass pretty easily. And if you were wondering if Killer has any of his personality from the Ultraman Zero specials, well. Tomoya Ichijoji reveals that he's actually evil and is controlling the giant mech, Jean Killer. The show really starts to shine once we reach the end of the third episode, because that's when the show begins an actual arc.
The first few episodes are pretty basic: New character gets introduced, they get corrupted, Ginga stops them, that person reforms. These basically turn the person using them into evil Kaiju, or occasionally evil versions of Ultraman. Characters with darkness in their hearts are often given "Dark Sparks", which are the evil equivalent to Ginga Sparks. Speaking of the Ginga Spark, Hikaru isn't the only one with one. It's a shame this gets restricted mostly to the villains in season 2. The Kaiju transformation gimmick is actually pretty cool and I like that it gives Ginga a more varied moveset without resorting to typical form changes. He can also turn into Kaiju too, which he usually does once per episode. Using said action figure, he becomes Ultraman Ginga. It's like a low-budget live-action version of Toy Story at times.Īnyway, Taro recruits Hikaru to help him, who ends up receiving both the Ginga Spark and the Ginga action figure. I get that it's due to budget constraints, but it's always weird seeing the actual toys in the show representing characters.
And yes, they used the actual action figures for these characters and it's.
#ULTRAMAN ZERO REVIEW SERIES#
You see, a very vague war happened before the series began called the "Dark Spark War".Īll of the Ultraman and Kaiju got their asses beat and turned into ACTUAL action figures called "Spark Dolls". So, the series starts off with a young man named Hikaru heading back to the town where he grew up/ There he meets an old friend (and inevitable love interest) Misuzu, along with his other friends Kenta and Chigusa. So, in honor of the belated Ultraman Day (YES, I AM VERY LATE), let's talk about it! So, we'll just stick to what is in that collection. It's just a fun silly "what if" scenario that isn't even included in the Blu-Rays or digital versions of the US release. Regardless, it seems to be its own thing and doesn't factor into the plot of either season at all. There's no subtitled version of this film from what I could find.
Yeah, it revolves around all the kids entering this weird dream sequence thing where they turn into Kaiju and fight Ultras. Now, I can't really talk about the second Theater Special, because. So, I wanted to go through ALL of Ginga and give my opinion on it.
#ULTRAMAN ZERO REVIEW MOVIE#
They had to dig up old suits from storage just to have monsters for Ginga to fight!ĭespite this seemingly non-existent budget, the show was a huge success! It started the whole "New Generation Heroes" line, got a second season, a movie (technically 3), and its own Ultra Fight. Seriously, this show operated on a budget equivalent to a clip show. It's a series that started off as a weird action show set within an abandoned school and had ZERO budget. Ah yes, Ultraman Ginga! This show is fascinating to me.
