Hiroko Asami for best waifu of 2023! I also liked the duality between Shinji Kaminaga and Alien Mefilas. In fact, I wish it had been explored just a bit more. All and all, thank you Shinji Higuchi and Hideaki Anno for continuing the "Ultraman" franchise.

What I can’t help but miss in all this is the poetic free spirit and deep human interest that once defined most things associated with Hideaki Anno—his concerns, it seems, have shifted from individual to structural, and perhaps people just aren’t so compelling to him anymore. Higuchi’s evidently having a great deal of fun, however, and surely has more of those rubbery monsters up his sleeve. He’s doing fine.

It’s an exciting picture, a smart picture, a fascinating picture, and a wonderfully weird picture.

Tongue-in-cheek but never campy, Shin Ultraman is an object lesson in how to reboot a superhero franchise for modern times.
