00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,840
Engine inspection presents going ultra this is MJ. I'm an author. I'm an artist

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,540
I'm an analyzer you can find all my work at MJMunoz.com

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:14,520
Join me as I talked about Ultraman blaze our episode 24 the approaching third wave the kaiju featured this episode were pretty much just

4
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:15,840
for all I'm

5
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,120
and Earth Gurren mod 4

6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,720
Who's ready for space and?

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,720
Yes, so this was an interesting episode. I overall I really did like it a lot I

8
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,720
I

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,600
Inventory I had a very hard time making notes

10
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,480
I've only got like six or less or six or so bullet points on this episode

11
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:40,540
and I had a really hard or I had a really easy time making the notes, but as I felt it

12
00:00:40,540 --> 00:00:42,540
I didn't feel like a lot of

13
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,160
Moments were all I got to write down about this. We're gonna think about that it just kind of

14
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:50,920
Happened and I mean that in the most complimentary way possible

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,880
I think everything flowed very naturally in this episode

16
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,840
But there was also a lot of it and yet it was all stuff

17
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,400
I've kind of seen coming for a little while so didn't really hit me in

18
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,920
Like I wasn't shocked by revelations. I'm almost waiting like okay

19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:12,800
So now you're gonna confirm X Y or Z and they're not quite forthcoming with things as much as they could be but anyway

20
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,760
I'll just read through my notes except for one thing. I forgot to put in my notes which is

21
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:23,200
in the beginning when Emmy and Gento met they seemed like a weird vibe chemistry between them and

22
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,520
then

23
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,960
In and thus Emmy fought when they're at the aquarium and stuff

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240
like they even seem to be a weird vibe between them there and

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:39,240
Now at this final episode like he and Haruno talked about any as if he needs to get back to earth and protect her or

26
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,400
Put keep her on her leash or whatever

27
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,000
and also we have

28
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:50,960
The moment between them he's the last person to say goodbye to her in this whole line of other crew people who work for Scard

29
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,680
And he not only shakes her hand which is fine

30
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,680
I'm she like double hand she you know holds his hand and then puts her other hand on top of his hand which I

31
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,560
Think she did with whoever was I think it was VC was right, you know before him

32
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,520
Chiroaki I mean vice captain

33
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,880
But then like he like chucks her shoulder like you're gonna do this and then find a way to save us all like I

34
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,680
Think she's a good character. She's a cool character, but I find there's like a weird particular emphasis of his

35
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,880
Attention put on her and they don't quite understand what that's about like is she now is like a little sissy type character

36
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,720
I

37
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,320
Can't think of anything else because that would be wildly inappropriate and very unultraman like I think

38
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,760
and

39
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,080
I don't really know what it is

40
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:40,320
And I keep waiting for her to turn out to be something special or someone special like an alien or alien human hybrid or something

41
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,960
like that, and I just don't know if that's where they're gonna go with the show or what and

42
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,840
Yeah, it's kind of strange I get a weird vibe and

43
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,800
I don't really understand it. Maybe it was the actor and actress

44
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,160
anyway, so

45
00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:00,360
Varalans method of travel is so wicked. I mean that literally and also that it's very cool and novel

46
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,600
Blowing up with your bio bombs that come off of your tail your bottom whatever

47
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,500
The core of a planet in order to throw it off of course so that it

48
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,720
changes its

49
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:20,360
Orbit and then crashes into another planet that you can then use to do kind of the same thing too is like

50
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:26,960
Amazing think about the the daisy chain of all that impact you go from you slingshot from one plant into another and in that destruction

51
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,940
That destruction because it pulls it in with its gravitational force, right?

52
00:03:30,940 --> 00:03:35,920
It knocks that planet off its gravitational force and it pulls it in the next one the next one the next one in the solar system

53
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,720
And you could probably travel pretty quickly relatively speaking as far as space travels concerned with that and that's crazy

54
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:47,520
It's a crazy method I was thinking about like scientifically where did to get the nourishment the nutrients to keep doing that but I know

55
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,400
Whatever it feeds off of solar radiation. Let's say so then it's all fine

56
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:56,480
So yeah, I think that's pretty cool and then I thought this was interesting earthy has

57
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,800
access to this classified information that Emmy wants and she basically like social hacks him like or

58
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,680
Social engineers him because she's a corner if you were friends. I think you use a friend. What do you think of us?

59
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:12,760
I think you're a friend too. Well, can you share that information with me? And then he gives me this little micro USB

60
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,880
And she's able to hack it later and it just I don't know it felt kind of nice

61
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,960
But it also felt kind of wrong and I was thinking should she be doing this but then again if it's for the fate of

62
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:27,880
the world I guess but like I don't know it's just kind of interesting move and it's an interesting thing to do and

63
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,920
Yeah when

64
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,400
When you be

65
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,360
When you be

66
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,600
Assassinate the entire skip office will know why the air are rising up because of what's been done to them and also man in the past

67
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,400
And then I can't believe that Gento didn't tell his wife what he is and what he's really doing

68
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,920
And that he was you know, maybe going to die and not see her ever again or their son

69
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,840
But I do love that before he transforms and when he's begging later to fight with him

70
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:59,600
And he sees the bracelet that his son gave him on his wrist and he looks at it

71
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:00,680
You can tell he's gazing at it

72
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,760
And then he looks at his wedding ring and he has this resolved and then I think that's when he pulls out the the blazer stone

73
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:12,160
And then he convinced his blazer to help him fight and I just I thought it was really really wonderful

74
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,200
I thought it was really wonderful

75
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,200
Going back real quick to his wife's reform

76
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,840
So like I wanted them to like hug or embrace or like a peck or something just because like that's what a husband or wife

77
00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:26,360
Would do especially if he thought like I'm gonna die tonight

78
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,880
But maybe they'd already said goodbye and

79
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,120
Yeah, I just would think that something like that would happen. But anyway, it was kind of

80
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,040
Disappointing that didn't happen

81
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:41,120
But then after he closed the door the camera stays on her face and just before she breaks

82
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:47,000
It cuts and then we go to the next scene and I thought that was I thought that was really great. I was really great

83
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,000
That and then him looking at his

84
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,160
Bracelet and ring and then he looks at his ring and he's like

85
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,960
Bracelet and ring reminding him of his son and his wife who he loves

86
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,960
I thought it was beautiful

87
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,400
I thought it was strange though that blazer's light started blinking immediately when he was on the surface of the moon

88
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,560
Because I mean he's like a space guy

89
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,520
So does he need oxygen to breathe? Is he holding his breath real hard? Like I didn't I didn't quite get that I didn't see

90
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,360
That we're all on had like zapped him or anything like that

91
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,120
Like he did later and it looked like he pulled energy out of him like shift it

92
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:27,640
You know, he's a final boss, right? So he's gonna have multiple forms and he like kind of modified and changed his form or whatever

93
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:34,520
Yeah, that was kind of odd. I didn't really get that. I also don't really get Dobushee's role at all in the show like he's

94
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:43,080
Was he a part of the original v99 thing no he wasn't because he didn't have all those notes in that notebook on v99

95
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,800
and

96
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,480
He's like a high-level asset who they were protecting who Gento was protecting previously three years ago

97
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:55,000
And then he can just waltz into the like gg or yeah

98
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,080
Ggf command office and like do stuff and kind of like giving orders to people

99
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,280
and then he sends guys to abduct emmy because

100
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:10,560
She was hacking or whatever. But also he like used emmy as an asset to get to the notebook and

101
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,080
I don't really know. I don't really know what's going on

102
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:18,040
He's got a very strange role and they don't really understand what it's supposed to be and what it's about and again like

103
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:23,760
This is a kid's show so it should be a little more clear. I would think for them to understand but here I am

104
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,760
Not understanding it is though. I don't know

105
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,960
I mean towards the end of the fight with

106
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,560
Ver-all-ran, I hope I'm saying that right

107
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,520
Blazor held up his hand and he saw the black hole thing happening again

108
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,840
I don't really understand what happened. It looked really cool

109
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,640
It felt like it had something really cool, but it didn't actually show what it did so like

110
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:47,480
Did he bring like a massive, you know thing in there to hit him like he you know black hole the I don't know

111
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:54,760
The blazor spear was it I don't know what he did but um or the blazor spiral blade or like was that him disconnecting from?

112
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,160
Gento

113
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,960
Because he connected to him through the wormhole now. He's just thinking

114
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:01,960
I don't know I don't understand

115
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:09,400
And I think that's a problem for this whole episode like there were a lot of things going on that I didn't actually understand

116
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:15,000
and I'm confused as to why they're confusing and I'm confused as to why they don't quite make sense and I just

117
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,000
I don't know what I liked it, but it

118
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:23,880
I almost worry if I like it more because because of like the emotional beats than I do for like from a story standpoint

119
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,240
But then also it was like very satisfying to see like the final checks

120
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,200
Even checking if earthy is good and like getting to see the human faces behind

121
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,240
You know the start you know earthy or earth growing operation

122
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,360
I mean the people helping run it like getting to see a focus on the

123
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,760
I mean the people helping run it like getting to see a focus on them briefly for them to say you know

124
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,400
This checks out this checks out this checks out like all those things were cool

125
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,880
It felt really impactful and it felt kind of like impending doom

126
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,840
But it didn't feel hopeless and like full of despair

127
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:54,280
It felt kind of wistful and hopeful and almost nostalgic or something and I did appreciate that but it just

128
00:08:55,560 --> 00:08:57,640
Someone was missing, but I still liked it

129
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,760
Oh, well like I'd give it a four out of five or a you know eight or nine out of ten

130
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:07,240
If I had to do that, but I don't know. What did you think about it? Um, what did you think about it? Uh, yeah

131
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,020
Tell me I want to grow this channel. So please help me by subscribing

132

And I'd really appreciate that. Check out my shorts. I'm doing a lot of shorts

133
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,360
I'm trying to figure out how to adjust things going forward

134
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:31,800
And I think I've got a great plan to keep good tokusatsu related content coming up here as well as uh doing much more stuff with my writing stuff over on I'm gonna have to edit this out

135
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,600
Over on

136
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,440
Uh

137
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:46,120
I'm also trying to figure out a balance continuing to put out tokusatsu content while also releasing more stuff over on

138
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:51,880
My fortress fiction channel and getting more stuff more writing done for myself

139
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,640
Um, I'm working on a short story right now. That's like 80 done

140
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,240
with draft one and then I'll have to revise it and then uh

141
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:04,040
Hopefully I can get that into an anthology make some money off of that and then reinvest in my writing with uh,

142
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:10,040
Continuing to write and put publish my own books with magical bugs battling monsters and eventually hopefully after

143
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:16,840
Uh one of these magical bugs battling monsters books i'll be able to do my tokusatsu inspired book that I have been really wanting to do for a long time
