here's some translated bits from one of the articles, hitting the bullet points:

[quote]translated by ah.heng of Singapore's Ultraman Lah forum-

バルタン星人など過去の怪獣が登場するほか
monsters of the past like baltan seijin will appear.

On the one hand, I like how they're going back to the fun format of the shows. But I don't want them to kiddy it up too much.

This sounds pretty cool. I've only gotten into Ultraman recently, and haven't seen very much at all yet, just a few eps of Nexus, but the return of classic kaiju and the old-school storytelling (which, as a newbie to UM, is something I've yet to see) make this a perfect way to follow a new series and get a taste of what I've missed at the same time.

Can't wait to hear more. :)

here's hoping some of the older original Ultras will appear. kids would love that, and then want to see some of those episodes (i know, in a perfect world! :lol: )
