Random thoughts: I think it might have been better if they made the Blazarc crossover into a movie, and made the Arc movie into episodes in the show instead.
While this episode feels 'empty', next episode seems to be pretty packed. With Big Pucchi appearing, whatever this kaiju's story is and supposedly, a UTTF kaiju is gonna appear?
6/10
And it doesn't really help that the kaiju of the week just sort of appear. It makes the kaiju side of the episode and the human side feel disconnected which is something I've complained about in ep 4 as well.
I will say tho, this episode had a pretty dumb moment with kanna not waiting for the professor and the UTTF lady to fully leave before entering the UFO. There was no reason for her to do that
This scene is by far the most in part of the episode. Kanna's past with her pet being the reason she didn't want to join Emma protecting Pucchi was pretty nice. It's an understandable reason. Makes me wonder what reason the others have too.
This episode is an 8/10 for me.
I'm really enjoying Teo so far. It's the breath of fresh air I needed from Ultraman after years of the shows following a set formula. Hopefully the show continues being great.
