Ultraseven: Sci-Fi Synthesis | Explode When Defeated
Added 2020-01-27 02:30:57 +0000 UTCOn this month's Explode When Defeated, we're talking about Ultraseven, one of the landmark works of the tokusatsu genre, and one of the most famous works in modern Japanese pop culture. In short, this thing's a classic, and it's classic for a reason. We're going to discuss the way it mashes together what came before to create a powerful show with some potent commentary that stands up to this day.
Because of that break I took from endlessly watching stuff in December, I actually got pretty far ahead of this one so working on it wasn't a headache in the slightest. I really like working this way so I hope I can keep up this comfortable pace for the rest of the year. I already have a pretty big lead on my next two videos as well so it should hold up. I want to make a special thanks here to my friend from a discord I'm in and his blog Ultra Blog DX, which provided a lot of really solid and interesting info on the production of the show that I went into in the video's intro. Any info not covered in his blog post is from the official Ultraseven booklet by Mill Creek.
Anyways, hope you guys enjoy!
