Ultraseven X: It's good, but...

[greboguru]

...it's awfully short on Ultraman action, isn't it?

I mean, in most of the episodes he shows up at the end for like 30 seconds. Surprising.

Don't get me wrong. I like the show. It's unusual, in my experience, to find an Ultra show which is so moody, dimly-lit, dark, and serious. But it's dark without being BLEAK, so I'm fine with it.

But wow, it's really light on the titular character himself.

PS - Have there been other Ultra shows where the Ultraman can manifest in human-size form? I was surprised to see this in UsX as well.

 

[ultrakenn]

yea, gaia and agul. The original U7 fought in human sizes before.

 

[Bad Wolf]

Tiga and Dyna too, in some episodes.

The original Ultra Seven was used as just a token character in several of his episodes too, you know. Nothing new there. Anyway, I almost think the show would work better without Seven but I love it as it is.

Never having seen the original Ultraseven I actually didn't know that. And I agree, it probably WOULD work better without the "Red Giant," but you're right, it's still really satisfying.

was the first and only ultra series I have watched & I highly enjoyed it

 

[Artic_Rival]

Yeah there were a shortage of Ultraseven action. I mean, one time he transfromed into him just to WAVE GOODBYE TO SOMEONE!

 

[Kamen_Rider_Ryuki]

i liked the series but it deserved more usx action

 

[Forever Knight]

The only problem I had with the series was the fight scenes were just too damn short. Other then that I loved it.

Thanks for the info, feedback, and responses everyone. I just finished watching the last episode only now, and WOW. That ending was great. Excellent show!! Woooo!
