EPISODE 25, The Devil Child: I don’t have a whole lot to say on this one, but I really enjoyed it. The concept of an astral projecting child killing people is kind of a crazy one. The climax of the episode with Lily walking on the train tracks is something I really wasn’t expecting from the show. The ending could’ve been a little better, but I thoroughly enjoyed this one. A rank Good opening narration Unique idea for an episode, astral projecting demon child Cool ass science doohickey Lily’s laugh when she’s astral projecting is creepy A great use for composite shots in this one Loving the horror vibe of the episode\ I love Ichinotani’s stare Wow I really can’t believe they went for something like this in as an episode of Q, not that crazy given what some later Ultra stuff does, but still EPISODE 26, Blazing Glory: This episode started off slow, but quickly surprised me. I really enjoyed this episode. Dynamite Joe is definitely a favorite character of mine for this show. The episode really focusing in on a single really paid off. Peter was also a delight to get to see. I loved the more ambiguous ending on this one too. S rank A little pet aligatortoise Fortune telling pet aligatortoise I like the idea of Aligatortoise, a creature that changes its size depending on the temperature Dynamite Joe is also a clown I love the look of big Peter, think I may like it more than its retool as Gesura. I love how expressive Peter’s face is Oh I really like that cut from Peter jumping into the ocean to someone jumping in to the pool Joe can’t handle the idea of a loss Love the camerawork at the dock The bottle sinking was a nice touch Love the paper ripping transition Lots of really cuts and transitions in this episode I’m glad that Joe survived the fire EPISODE 27, The Disappearance of Flight 206: A slow burn of an episode. This one felt like a dream I would have. Love that they highlighted Jun’s piloting skills. This one was pretty basic, but fairly entertaining. B rank The conversation between Yuri and Ichinotani agonist feels like an advertisement. I know it's just exposition, but the way it’s delivered sounds like an advertisement Love the effect for the cloud vortex Oh hey it’s Hiroshi Koizumi Oh so there’s just a murderer on the plane My beloved fog effects This episode feels like a dream I love how Jun tends to get into fist fights Hearing the distant roar of Todora was really cool Also hello Maguma- I mean Todora Nice that they put Jun’s skill as a pilot to use in this episode Neat effect for the inverted vortex Slow Burn pacing Way to make people afraid of flying lol EPISODE 28, Open Up!: With that I have finished Ultra Q. This final episode is probably a contender for my favorite. The mystery of this episode was awesome. I love the idea of the interdimensional train and a sci-fi writer who can travel alternate dimensions. I loved the ambiguous ending, though it was a little abrupt. An amazing send off S rank The final episode yippee Damn they just left poor Ippei Like the look of the composite skyline Love the way the camera shifts on the train, its disorienting Kolideoscope Oh look, it's Hideyo Amamoto! Interesting cut, the boss throwing the vitamins to Jun and Yuri in the car This episode’s mystery is very intriguing Ending was abrupt

EPISODE 22, Metamorphosis: Very interesting episode. I love when Ultra Q does stories that focus on some kind of drama. The idea of a giant human being the monster was a fun one as well. I just wish the episode had better pacing, for as interesting as it was, it tended to drag after the flashback scene. C tier Big ass footprint Funny that they assume its a yeti Interesting that Jun is also a sci-fi writer Love the use of the mountain’s natural lighting This is a really cool concept for an episode Love how this episode is taking a more dramatic route Love the use of low shots to sell Koji’s height. They do this with other traditional kaiju, but you never really think about it cause we accept that they are huge, but Koji is a normal human. I wonder how much of the destruction hurt the actor’s feet, I don’t imagine that stepping on that house was very pleasant Loved the sequence with Ayako convincing Koji to return to the mountains Really intriguing ending narration EPISODE 23, Fury of the South Sea: This is a weird episode. I may have totally missed something, but I really don’t like the notion that killing Sudar is freeing the islanders. The islanders worshipped Sudar and it just reads really wrong that a couple of people from Japan come and liberate South Pacific Islanders from the god they worship. I get that Sudar killed Anita’s brother and father but even then Anita still worships it and accepts that it’s just the nature of the beast. This one just leaves a sour taste in my mouth, it comes off very dated at best. This is definitely just birthed from my own personal biases. I feel like the concept of the episode could work, I just think the execution is heavily flawed. I’ll have to revisit this one, someday. I liked Sudar though. F rank Oh hey it’s Akira Kubo And the Giant Octopus! Well in this it’s called Sudar Opening narration went hard in this one Given the episode’s setting, and the fact that even though this is black and white it kinda looks like some of the islanders are Japanese people in brown face, I’m not sure how I feel about this one Scene where Minami tries to negotiate with the islanders is basically the arrival to Faro Island from King Kong vs Godzilla Oh hello King Kong vs Godzilla stock footage Really not liking the idea of them liberating the islanders from the creature they worship, I know it’s a story about a giant octopus, but so far the episode has some very bad vibes I love how done and matter of fact Yuri is when they’re imprisoned I like how Sudar pops when it dies EPISODE 24, The Statue of Goga: A very solid episode, nothing groundbreaking, but a very fun time. It drags a bit in the middle, but I loved the spy stuff. Goga is a fun monster too. A bit ironic how this followed up the Sudar episode. B rank Cool ass title drop for this one Neat idea for the episode The statue of Goga’s eyes glowing is cool Love the use of stop motion to simulate cracking Oh little baby Goga Really like the spy aspect of the episode This episode feels like Dogora Love how this episode went from a spy story to kaiju story, and the shift felt very natural I love the concept of a snail with a drill shell Kinda ironic how this episode follows up the Sudar one Love how this ends with the idea that Tokyo is now cursed

finished disc 3 since class got canceled
EPISODE 19, Challenge From the Year 2020: A very fun episode. Not as good as I hoped it would be, but still a very solid episode. This one had a really cool mystery, and the Kemur was creepy. Had a lot of cool ideas that I wish it went further with. B rank Oh it’s Captain Muramatsu Neat negative filter over the opening Fun checkerboard transition The effect of the disappearances is really cool A more Yuriko centered episode I like that this episode really puts the main 3 into danger Love the idea of the book influencing reality in some weird way Kemurman’s laugh is creepy, like a creepy version of the Baltan laugh, pretty sure they’re the same laugh The theme park setting is cool, adds to the eerie vibe of the episode The Kemur is just creepy in general I love it The use of sounds from Godzilla in Godzilla Raids Again really adds to Kemur’s creep factor Loved how most this episode took place at night Funny little gag at the end EPISODE 20, The Primordial Amphibian Ragon: The debut of Ragon, which is one of my favorite Ultra Kaiju. This episode was very good. It had some really cool and creepy visuals, I loved the characterization of Ragon, and the episode had a satisfying ending. I wish the idea of the scientist being ousted was taken further though, A rank Ok another ousted scientist Love the effect of the submarine eruption Oh that’s a horrifying thought, Ragon just dragging you into the ocean Nice fakeout jumpscare Oh Ragon is scary, love the shots of just its eyes being visible from the darkness Very nice smooth jazz Really loving the classic horror vibe of the episode Ragon is intrigued by music Ragon just slips and falls off a cliff Glad that wasn’t the end for Ragon. An issue I’ve had with a few episodes is the underwhelming endings, I feel that if this episode came earlier it would’ve ended with Ragon's little tumble Loved the effect of the island sinking into the ocean EPISODE 21, Space Directive M774: This episode started off really strong, but just kept losing its steam. It was pretty boring by the end. The episode felt like it just kind of meandered before coming to an end. I do like Bostang and Zemi’s outfit though, D rank The episode opening on a ship at sea kinda reminds me of the start of the original Godzilla A beautiful painting of the night sky Really funny that they’re doubting Yuri, when only 2 episodes ago the alien’s invasion was based on a book, but I get it. It's an episodic anthology, so no real continuity Very unique title splash No opening narrator Loving the strange aura around this cabin A neat stingray monster Like the mistrust, of course we would be weary of an alien from space Bostang is a funny little fella Oh they just blew him up :( I love Zemi’s outfit Interesting final message

Had a day off, so Ultra Q baby!
EPISODE 15, Kanegon’s Cocoon: A very fun episode. Another episode about a kid being punished for something, this time its greed. I liked how clever the idea is for Kanegon, and the episode matched with an equally comedic and zany episode. A tier A kid’s swapmeet? This kid is chasing the bag Another episode with a unique intro song Why the name Daddy Walrus? The kid’s name is straight up money, kinda baller Godzilla mentioned To be serious, I love the concept of the episode so far. A kid’s greed literally corrupts and consumes him More of my believed fog effects What the hell is that!? Straight up some kinda seraphim like being Hello my friend Kanegon, love his design a wacky and out there being A kid who simply wanted to hoard money, now needs to eat it to survive. Oh shit its Ide Love when Ultra Q delves into fantasy, a nice change of pace from the mostly Sci-Fi stories Very funny sequence with the kids and priestess Another funny bit with the kid zipping Kanegon’s mouth shut, pretty funny episode Love how unrealistic the kid’s worries are. If they turn Kanegon to a dog pound they’ll skin him, if he’s given to scientists they’ll dissect him. No Jun, Yuri or Ippei EPISODE 16, Garamon Strikes Back: Another contender for my favorite. I don’t have a whole lot to say on this one, but it’s an extremely engaging episode. It is kind of basic by today’s standard, but as the first Seijin episode of the Ultra series, it's a great first outing for the Seijin type of episode. S rank Love nighttime shots in Black and White Also our first proper alien invasion plotline it seems Really cool shots of outer space Automobile moment Oh hey its Akihiko Hirata Maybe it's just the presence of Kenji Sahara and Akihiko Hirata, but this feels like a classic Toho Tokusatsu film so far. Loving the bit with the people in the diner watching Garamon on TV Garamon aura farming in the fog, goes hard What does he mean by that? Very nice city set Great compositing to sell the illusion of 2 Garamons Cicadaman reveal is nice, interesting that Cicada-Man is Ultra’s first Seijin Oh they just burn him alive for his failure EPISODE 17, The ⅛ Project: Despite not having many notes for this episode, this is another contender for my favorites. A very intriguing episode that makes a lot of commentary on man’s social nature. I may not be getting the full picture of this episode and I definitely want to look more into the production behind this one cause this was a delight. S rank I love the opening sequence for this one Foreshadowing for the Mephalis episode? Delightful sounds in this episode Love the way the ⅛ set is shot and constructed Really love the episode’s concept and story. Unsure of what it's meant to be commenting on, but the ⅛ Project itself feels like a cult, though given the time period I wouldn’t be surprised if it was meant as commentary on communism The giant props are really impressive, in fact the whole set for Yuri on the desk is very impressive Awesome uses of compositing for the whole episode Wow what an ending EPISODE 18, The Rainbow’s Egg: A very lovely episode. I love when the Ultra series integrates folklore and superstition with Sci-Fi and kaiju. The episode had a nice heartwarming ending, and my good friend Pagos. S rank. PAGOS!!!!!! Oh nah they got the demon’s core in the trailer Underground monster surfacing scenes my favorite My favorite Ultra Q Kaiju, Pagos. Hello Love how the Ultra series takes things like folktales or superstitions and integrates them into stories that take place in the modern day Fun juxtaposition between the plot of the kids and the plot of the adults I like the set for the power plant a lot I love the way that Pagos moves A perfectly cut off scream Oh that was an awesome effect for Pagos’ death But also NOOOO PAGOS WHY!!!!!!!!!! A very heartwarming ending, but that is still a capsule of Uranium, so someone should get that

with this I have finished disc 2 of Ultra Q. Its a very solid show :) I've been enjoying my time with it
EPISODE 11, Balloonga: Huh, that sure was an episode. This one was ok, with a lot of cool ideas and lots of potential, but then Balloonga just left. I like the implication of Balloonga being a star eating creature though. This one had a strong start and middle, but an underwhelming end, C tier I love retro futuristic space suits Really like the look of the outer space background Interesting premise for Balloonga, energy eating creature A really good composite shot of the main 3 watching the car float away Ippei fucking dies Love when kaiju stories do the whole outcast scientist discovered the monster several years ago but kept it hidden Love the look of Balloonga Episode with the highest stakes so far Love these mad scientist types who hold Kaiju like gods Love the shot of Balloonga next to the wispy storm clouds Cool camera effect on Balloonga Balloonga just leaves… At least it leaves with a creepy implication EPISODE 12, I Saw a Bird: Very solid episode, went in a direction I really wasn’t expecting. A pretty good distillation of what Ultra Q is, an episode that is equal parts mysterious, surreal, comedic and eerie. A rank Like seeing footage of old zoo animals Zookeeper has a funny scream Why did those chickens jump in the water? Also very short intro Very cool ship Cute little bird Neat sci-fi mystery flare Kuro noooo! 😭 Beautiful sunrise, juxtaposed to the horrific scene of the feathers of chickens slaughtered by the bird Love the absurdity of a military arresting a small bird This bird is fucked up bruh Love the shot of Kuro breaking out of the jail Rodan stockfootage! End credits EPISODE 13, Garadama: A basic and solid episode. Had a fun structure with an A, B and C plot. Garamon is a funny little guy and its defeat is pretty clever. B rank. Love looking at old gizmos and electronics Tilsonite Nice to get an episode with a bit more focus on Ichinotani Lovely lake set Awesome water effect as well, always love seeing these big floods in toku Really enjoying the A & B plot structure of this episode Awesome matte painting Fog effect my beloved Garamon my friend! I love Garamon’s little dinky ass footsteps Love the lighting on Garamon’s close up Wonky composite Misogynist scientist A fun alien invasion story Love how Garamon reacts to the signal being interrupted Uncanny watching Garamon get up from a fall EPISODE 14, Tokyo Ice Age: A very solid episode. Like how this one follows up on the events of the first episode Peguila episode. The Sawamura plot could’ve been better. Overall a great showing of the effects, kinda surprised it took this long to get a traditional kaiju city rampage. B rank This one just gets right into it Love the black smoke that signals Peguila’s arrival Nice shots of frozen airport Everyone is sneezing Man’s petty squabbles leads to the monster attacking Love the shot of Yuri taking pictures through the broken windows Love how non chalant the kid is about Peguila’s appearance Think this is the first properly sized kaiju city rampage of the show City set looks great in this one Nice composite shot I like when Ultra Q dips its toes into interpersonal drama Another pretty toho-esque episode They really just brush past the death of the kid’s dad

EPISODE 8, Terror of the Sweet Honey: Another amazing episode. Mogula is my favorite Ultra Q kaiju ever. Love the mystery aspect of this one. Also like how the episode dipped its toes into some interpersonal drama, even if this drama was pretty standard stuff. This one really felt like a classic showa era Toho Kaiju movie. S rank Love the dark and stormy lighting Reused shot of the train going into the tunnel lol Underground monster surfacing shot looks amazing as always Train derail looks very good as well Susume Kurobe! Funny statement from Yuri, given what happens to Fuji in Ultraman Love the natural lighting in B&W My friend Mongula Commentary on reckless pursuit of science Lovely matte painting as always Episode moves at a great pace Love the mystery aspect of this one as well This episode feels a lot like a Toho Kaiju movie Love the shot of Itami emerging from the darkness in Mongula’s cave Amazing shot of the tanks firing at Mongula, love the way the camera moves in that one Ichinotani, why are you laughing at the death of my mole friend? EPISODE 9, Baron Spider: A very solid episode. Nowhere near being a favorite, but a fun episode nonetheless. It's got nice atmosphere, but moves just a tad too slow for me. B rank Big ass spider jumpscare Spider is just realistic enough to make me a little uncomfortable, but not enough for me to have to look away. A perfect balance The opening narration went kinda hard with this one Yuri: “You call me corny, but you forget I was born on the cob” Akiko Wakabayashi! She is so pretty The foggy swamp is an awesome location Loving the foggy atmosphere of this episode Oh nah, not the thin ass log bridge from my whale nightmares Luigi’s Mansion ass haunted house location, I love it I love how much of a dork Yuri has been throughout the show Love the creepy horror story Shot of the lighthouse in the distance is lovely Lethal Company Episode moves at a slower pace Love how they just run over the spider EPISODE 10, The Underground Super Express Goes West: An episode that started off pretty normal, but quickly gets into the absurd. This one was pretty funny for the most part, but dragged pretty hard in the middle. M1 was fun to see and I enjoyed Weasel. This episode felt like stuff just happening, but at least it was funny. B rank Wow retro futurism Newspaper transition was very good Kid is on that grindset Nice titlecard on this one Another comedic episode The 2 kids in a trench coat cliche!!! Ippei is a bad liar Love the idea of a kaiju story taking place solely on a train M1 my good buddy M1’s human eyes are kind of creepy This episode feels like a dream I had once Love the sequences with the train passing by other bits of scenery Yeah ok I am seagull

EPISODE 5, Peguila is Here!: Another fun episode. This one has a great mystery aspect, and some very fun retro sci-fi science logic. Peguila is one of my favorite Ultra Kaiju and its debut is a very strong one. The episode has great compositing and night time lighting as well. A rank The antarctic sea ice set immediately caught my eye Always nice to get an episode set in a foreign location Composite shot of a frozen ship matte painting, with the glacier is nice The fog and smoke effect looks great in B&W Episode sets up a great mystery Loving the mystery aspect of the episode The lighting in the reveal for Peguila is great, seeing the shadows on the snowmobile’s treads looks amazing Peguila’s reveal is great, I love Peguila as a kaiju already I like Yoko Amazing composite when the crew is running away from Peguila Love the far out there, hokey science of the episode. Its funny that the implausibility of the Peguimin-H is called out in the episode itself EPISODE 6, Grow Up! Little Turtle: My favorite episode so far. An amazingly absurd and surreal episode, with a children’s moral message. The Dragon Palace is an amazing use of fog and compositing. I adore this episode. S rank Cute little turtle Funny gag with the kids all standing behind the teacher Poor turtle being stuck on the string like that Fun editing Crazy sudden police shoot out though Episode doesn’t use the Ultra Q opening Unsure about this, but I don’t think it's good to tie strings on a turtle’s shell. Really shows how much has changed in regards to film making involving animals Episode has some vague similarities to Godzilla’s Revenge This teacher is an asshole man This episode feels like it came out of kid me’s imagination I love Gamerot, funny little whimsical turtle Amazing underwater shot The ripples overlaid in the Dragon Palace is great Manda Jumpscare Love how surreal and absurd this episode is Don’t hold the turtle by the tail 😭 Otohime’s creepy ass laugh EPISODE 7, SOS Mt. Fuji: An unfortunate dip in quality from the last few episodes. Like Goro and Goro, this one had some really neat aspects that they just don’t do enough with. This one dragged and had a whatever premise. Gorgos is at least a neat monster, and this one had some fun visuals, but those alone could not save it. D rank Love the opening’s visual of the spinning wheel Last 2 episodes have had some fun scene transitions Another episode with a sort of wildman, this one being a boy lost in the forest as opposed to being raised by monkeys Love the pulsating glowing rock texture of Gorgos Last 2 episodes have taken a bit more of a comedic tone Nice matte painting of Mt. Fuji at night Godzilla roar, not a huge deal, but hearing the unaltered Godzilla roar used for Gorgos kinda takes me out a bit. Not the episodes fault though, I blame Godzilla Interesting monster POV shot One awesome use of natural lighting in this one This one drags Gorgos looks funny Funny final scene transition

Been making mini reviews for each episode of Ultra Q, decided to post em here. lmk what you think of my opinions. I'll add on to this thread as I go through the show
EPISODE 1, Defeat Gomess: A fine and basic episode. Special for being the first ever Ultra episode. Plays out like a basic kaiju story and I think it's fun for that, though I think it could’ve been paced better and Litra could’ve been utilized better. C rank Slow Pace Wonderful effects Really like the prophecy aspect The use of Toho’s Godzilla and Rodan props adds a certain level of charm The set for the interior of the cave is amazing Jiro reminds me of Ichiro from Godzilla’s Revenge Miyauchi’s score goes hard as always Black and White looks great Characters aren’t super interesting, Jiro is the only one to stand out to me Love Gomess, just as clumsy as Godzilla Interesting to see a kaiju fight at this small of a scale, usually only get 50 or more meters, this fight is also very animalistic so that is a bonus I really like Litra, but I wish it did more in this episode, only shows up at about the half way point and does nothing until Gomess shows up Not a fault of the episode itself, but I don’t like that Mill Creek adds new sound effects on top of the old ones, they don’t match and take me out of the moment EPISODE 2, Goro and Goro: I really don’t know how to feel about this one. It has an interesting plot and the characters are interesting, especially Goro. But the episode feels very mean to the 2 Goro’s and the ending makes me feel bad for Goro. The way they talk about the island that Yuri was staying on also feels dated and strange. Overall an episode that has a lot going for it, but that makes me kind of uncomfortable and not in a good way. D tier Goro looks scuffed in a good way, also love the sound he makes Some interesting camera work Characters are a lot better in this one Bits of the episode have no sound effects, giving an eerie vibe, especially when its scenes of Goro Love how Goro acts, he’s a funny lil’ guy Really like the idea of the relationship between the Goro’s. Man raised by monsters is a fun idea Episode really makes you feel bad for Goro, it’s a little hard to watch Kind of strange story detail about Ex-Japanese soldiers, it melds into the main plot nicely though The way they talk about the island comes off very dated City set looks good, but not great Ending is so fucked up EPISODE 3, Gift From Space: A very strong classic Sci-Fi story that deals with man’s inherent destructiveness. Has a very unexpected but welcome human fight. And Namegon is a fun creature, definitely the strongest episode thus far, A rank. Love the way water looks in Black and White Opening narrator akin to Twilight Zone is a nice touch A classic Retro Sci-Fi story Scene with the scientists analyzing the parachute reminds me of Roswell Incident stories Love how kinda realistic the episode is about how we would interpret indirect alien contact Fight scene was fun, don’t see that too often in Ultra Another cool ass cave set Namegon’s hatching was cool as hell I love Namegon You can see the dead thief close his eyes as soon as Jun takes the gun from his hand, not a critique but a funny little detail The close ups on Namegon as it moves are very good shots, really show off the textures of Namegon’s skin Fun chase Namegon’s death looks oddly satisfying Commentary on the dangers of scientific expansion with no ethics, and on humanity’s dark side The Namegon egg expanding in size is also very satisfying to watch Love how this one ends EPISODE 4, Mammoth Flower: Another very strong episode of the show. A very unique premise, especially for the time. Some of the best effects of the show so far, and amazing sets. The show seems to have found its footing here, S rank Love the silent opening Camera in the opening has some sort of bloom going on that makes it feel ephemeral and dream like The shot of Juran’s roots moving under the street looks so good The roots of Juran are very impressive Really funny character moment between the main 3 Love the set of the overgrown root room The cops just shooting at the roots is really funny to me Unsure if its just me, but a close up shot had a strange pulsing effect in the lighting The building cracking is very nice, love those kinds of effects in early tokusatsu Very unique concept of the monster simply being a giant nearly indestructible plant Compositing for Juran’s slow rise out of the building is amazing Use of stop motion in this episode is impressive
