Forget the fake CGI crap remaking the unremakeable masterpiece Sailor Stars - the crowning achievement of the life-changing animated experience that is the 90's Sailor Moon - and welcome with open hands and arms this excellent iteration of the Ultraman IP that has several elements reminding of the 90's Sailor Moon like the main philosophy of the protagonist, his moves and "weaponries" (if you can call them that way) and even scenes that look like they were straight-up inspired by that animated masterpiece. Yeah, the treatment of the secret identity is a bit different in here but hey, it's still a live-action Toku we're talking about and not a full-on animated magical girl show with its magical girls rules. The only real problem that prevented me to give a full 9 out 8 to this is its lenght, Ultraman series and tokus in general are made of real people whose limits you can't push like you can with animated characters and this is a prime example of that because after the excellent episode 57 (where, more or less, my watching experience ended) both the writers and the actors had lost all the energies and it shows in full, with the latters behind tired beyond belief in their performances from that point on. So, like it happened with another missed masterpiece that I wasn't able to end for the same reason of overdoing it (Candy Candy), I give it an 8. Rating aside, this is more 1000 times more worthy of appreciation, consideration, love and just giving it a watch than any fake CGI BS remaking something that didn't need any remake whatsoever from the get go. Moonies like me myself and I need to apply as soon as possible, they won't be disappointed.

P. S. This applies to the main series only, the movies are all skippable IMHO.
