Kinnikuman Retrospective: 2nd Era of Kaiju Fighting/Bibinba/Planet Rakka Arc

56k Beware and Spoilers Ahead


As 1980 was coming to an end, Kinnikuman was gaining some serious ground, Even going to be in the top 3 along with Shonen Jump's New Golden Boy Dr. Slump and other Shonen Jump titles several times throughout the 1980s, but a new year brought new big plans for Kinnikuman, Like reverting back to it's Ultraman roots. It went as well as you'd expect, did anyone in 1980 go "This story's good, but you know what'd be AWESOME? If it reverted back to it's goofy episodic nature..." Yeah, me neither, and I was -15 years old that year...

My Quick Thoughts on Ultraman X...

ATATATATA!!!!!! 2-HIT COMBO!!!!!!

This is the Final blog I'll post all year, but I've got exciting things for 2016, What a year for tokusatsu, we've got Ninninger, Drive finished it's run, Power Rangers redeemed itself with Dino Charge, Ghost came (ummmmm.... Yay?), some niche toku like GARO and Fujiyama Ichiban came and went, and this is also the year tokusatsu that's not your typical Godzilla and Power Rangers became profitable, with more and more toku being released here legally.We've got some big things in store for 2016. One big thing that came out was Ultraman X (not to be confused with Ultraseven X or Kamen Rider X), showing currently running toku can be watched legally, but was it good?

My quick thoughts on Ultraman Ginga S...



Today we're going to talk about Gingama... Wait there's a smudge from the A&W I was drinking last night. I'm actually reviewing Ultraman Ginga S...

Get the hate mail ready, I mean go to your email account/client to send Death Threats to me. I'm not a big fan of Ultraman... Do I hate it? NO!!!! I rather kind of like it. but once you've seen Ultraman, you've kind of seen Ultraman. This Especially goes for the Showa/Early Heisei era Ultra shows. There's its strong points, like the creative monsters (a la Power Rangers/Super Sentai (special mention goes to that totem pole monster from Mebius), and the designs of the Ultras themselves, especially the later Heisei Ultras. I believe I talked about Ginga Orignial a year ago, and needless to say, IT SUCKED!!!!! Bland characters, religious undertones, and an abuse of filler. Ginga S is longer, but is it better than The Original?

Kinnikuman Retrospective: The Kaiju Fighting Days

56k Beware and Spoilers Ahead


There isn't that much info on how Kinnikumnan came to be, but I think one day at a Japanese school, school, Yoshinori Nakai showed his best friend a sketch of a goofy looking Ultraseven and Takashi Shiamda was impressed, They were interested in becoming a mangaka duo, they were looking for a name and noticed one of their farts at a picnic smelled like a boiled egg. They decided to call themselves Yudetamago, after the Japanese word for said food. They submitted manga like Gong no Desu, a wrestling manga which would later for shadow what the series would become, and Mammoth to their favorite Magazine, Weekly Shonen Jump. While never being picked up for full series, Kinnikuman was picked up for 2 one shots, and later a full manga. This would later become a goofy Ultraman parody called Kinnikuman.

Talking a bunch of Toku, Part 1

So, where did I go for the umpteenth time? I admit, when I do blogs, I want to make it something special, I want it to mean something, kind of the reason why I retried the big epic storyline, and also the reason R.Cubed is on hiatus. Not to mention I'VE BEEN BUSY!!!!!!!!! A mix of the two reasons caused me not to do a blog for almost a month, but anyway, On to the intro.

Random Rubbish Roundup #14 (ON THE 14th): Now YouTube's Done It, Could The King of the Monsters Finally be Taken More Seriously here?, Another Yu-Gi-Oh series, REALLY!?!?

CAN I HAVE A BREAK FOR JUST A FEW WEEKS!?

Before we talk, I want to adress a couple things, First off The Day of the Doctor and Catching Fire Blogs have been indefinitely delayed, also I know the new Hobbit came out, but I'm waiting until all 3 movies came out before I review it. Also I'm not trying to rip off anyone with any of the topic decisions in my R.Cubed-s? I did these because they were interesting and newsworthy. But anyway, YouTube's New Content ID policies, the Godzilla Trailer, and Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V are today's topics.
