Urutora sebun

My favorite of the ultra series so far, ultraseven is slowly becoming my favorite super hero, this show is so entertaining and my favorite episode has to be the last one I think, I recommend you watch every episode if you haven't already, I dont think there is a single bad one.

I have to say this is the best of the Japanese gender of all time! The bad monsters the cool sunglasses and Ultra 7 the greatest Japanese superhero of all time. Dan Moroboshi puts on these sunglasses and turns into ultra 7 awesome! It goes perfect along with cartoon planet! The best episodes that you have to see are: shrubs from space terror of the lake Island in the sky Brilliant! The show was part of the ultra man series the started with ultra Q you must watch these characters face these odd looking monsters. Every Friday night on TNT and then cartoon planet afterwords. This show was the best of ultra man series said by most critics.

As the third entry to this huge franchise, it turns out to be much better than I expected. While it's still has the same formula as before, "huge bad guys versus good guys" or "monster of the week" formula to be exact, Ultraseven tries to be different from it's previous entries as the tone for this one are much darker and the mood also seems to became more serious than before. The gore also appears pretty frequently too.

Although the beginning of the show seems to be really weak and lazy in it's first 3 episodes, it starts to became progressively better as soon as the show goes on. Each of the episodes has it's unique plot, another reason why I like early Showa Ultraman era so much. Some of the episodes has different filmmaking style that feels like you're watching a different show (ex. Episode: The Untargeted Town). Anyways, I like that Tsuburaya spices something new and unique, and it works magically.

Talking about the conclusion to the show. The finale is simply monumental and incredible, not only because it is better than that 1965 Ultraman ending, it's because you can feel what happen to the characters and Ultraseven. You can feel the threat given by the monsters. The score in the finale, even though the composer did not made it due to ran out of time, adds that feeling that you'll never get it again in any of Ultraman shows.

Overall, this is one of the best Showa Ultraman shows out there. Go watch it, it will subvert your expectations.

Ultra 7 was very much ahead of its time. A few years back it was playing on TBS at 3am on Saturdays. It was very cool watching it as an adult and still enjoying it. I am not sure if it was brought back in the late 70's but that is when I was watching it as a kid. I lived in Hawaii for a few years growing up and was fortunate enough to watch other Japanese "superhero" television...Getaroba G, the Five Rangers (pre power ranger), raydene, robot man etc.. All were great in my opinion. Would love to see some of them today. I remember back and think that the subject matter was a little more adult than some of the knock offs today are??? Anyways if you get the chance to see any of these enjoy them.

I watched it when I was a kid many years ago. The best show of the ultra family.It was a disappointed when TNT aired a chopped version of the series. The effects were great for that time.It was so good that the studios made some special movies until a few years ago. If you watch Ultra Seven or any of the Japanese fiction series (like Johnny Sooko and his giant robot,Ultraman, The MJ, etc.), you will see how the Power Rangers is a cheap copy of the pioneer work of the Japanese studios. I wish the series will came available on DVD for the USA market, uncut with all the episodes (one episode was deleted of the official line up). I know there are a legion of fans of this genre.
