I think the range/diversity of the stories and direction is what makes MAX such a fun show. In that sense, it's very much like the original ULTRAMAN. My favourite example has always been Takashi Miike's two episodes back-to-back -- two *very* different takes on the same basic character and set up. If you dislike one week's episode, there is a chance you may still like the next.

The other of the Heisei Ultraman series have tended to maintain a standard style or formula throughout their run, which can be great if done right, but boring as hell if you happen to dislike the route they're taking that particular year.

Well, you know what, I think I might just have to get the R2s of these. Kinda regret have the first five Gaia volumes now, seeing as the series formula is a bit bland, and it has the look of Godzilla Island. >.<
