This is MJ, I'm an author, I'm an artist, I'm an analyzer. You can find all my work at MJMunoz.com
and I want to let you know that I watched the Ultraman Regulos trailer or teaser or whatever you call it
because the show is already out but it's going to be dubbed now I believe is the deal.
And I'm pretty excited about it. It looks like a cool show. I like the look of Regulos, I like the feel of him
and the cast of characters around him. It's kind of this weird you know space martial arts thing to
you know touch on something in Ultraman Z but it's you know space martial artists and I don't know
like the guy is Regulos is somehow stranded on a planet and then the people there who are like
martial artists dedicated to defending such and such like they talk about their fists I don't know
crying for people or like fists trying to make people stop crying they like they want to train him
and help him out and there's you know an evil martial artist guy and it just seems really cool
it seems like a you know basic story with heroism and you know lots of cool fighting and the conceit
of it being based on martial arts even having you know red dragon and white tiger I mentioned in there
it just seems like it's a kind of classic martial artist story told with Ultraman characters which
is a really neat concept. I like that blending of genre I think that's really cool it's really clever
I know it's old by now but the Clone Wars animated show that started out under the direction of George
Lucas or supervision of him and then other people ended up working on it afterwards they did a lot
of blending of genres in those so it's you know Star Wars plus a western Star Wars plus a noire
Star Wars plus a Alfred Hitchcock you know conspiracy movie type thing and that was cool and
that was done to I think really good effect and I think doing an Ultraman with this martial arts
theme is a really good idea because it just lends itself really well to martial arts and
you know why wouldn't you do that? So yeah I think it's a really good idea it's very clever
I mean it looks really cool I do find that the dragon and tiger thing is a little funny
it seems a little too human but I like it overall I did notice that the dubcast seems to be
different from it seems more like Ultrafight Galaxy or the Absolute Conspiracy that kind of thing
than it does this Ultraman Zet dub and I think the Zet dub is extremely high quality and I'm a
little surprised that they're going with I don't know the older dubcast or this different dubcast
then again perhaps it was made previously and I just didn't know about it because I haven't been
following things as closely as I could but anyway I like the premise it looks exciting it's coming
out May 23rd I don't think it's too long so I'll probably watch it and talk about it when it does
in fact come out because like I said I do think it looks cool and let me see that'll be out before
blizzard and while that is still running so I'll just intersperse it with with my Zet coverage I'll
make a little bonus episode where I talk about Regulus and I'm gonna be a lot of fun the villains
look great they look very threatening and I know weird I like this is like a brother sister male
female pair of these weird villains I like how alien it is there's like a tiger cat lady sort of
and they're like wearing geese and things like that and I do like the very alien cast I think
that's a lot of fun I think it's something that you can do with Ultraman because it's uniquely
you know more about aliens than you know Super Sentai or Kamen Rider and you know you may as
well do that so I like that the doing it gets really cool I like to see a diverse cast you know
what I mean because I'm just that kind of guy anyway that's all my thoughts on it check out all
