From Mythic to Mess | Ultraman Omega Episode 6

Going Ultra - Presented by Henshin Inspection ·

2026/01/05

Episode 5 of Ultraman Omega felt mythic, restrained, and deeply intentional.Episode 6 felt like the opposite.In this video, I break down why Omega Episode 6 feels less like a simple misstep and more like a structural failure. Not just a bad or weird episode, but one that breaks the show’s own premise and undercuts the trust built by earlier episodes.I focus on three core problems:How Episode 6 contradicts Omega’s promise that kaiju are new to this worldWhy the episode’s biology and internal logic

Ultraman Omega 05 DUB Review |Going Ultra

Going Ultra - Presented by Henshin Inspection ·

2025/12/22

Ultraman Omega Episode 5 surprised me.This isn’t really an episode about a fight, or even about a kaiju. It’s a quiet, mythic story about love, grief, and the pain of doing the right thing when it hurts everyone involved.In this video, I focus on one emotional takeaway from Omega 05: how love can give life, how it can take life, and how sacrifice doesn’t stop hurting just because it’s necessary.This is not a recap or a breakdown of every plot point. It’s a reflection on why this episode affected me

Ultraman Omega 04 DUB Review |Going Ultra

Ultraman Omega Episode 4 left me frustrated at first… and then the more I thought about it, the better it got.This episode has a strange tension at its core. Some of it feels very childish, while other parts are surprisingly thoughtful and mature. The conflict between Sorato and Cos, the shogi metaphor about support and importance, and the way Rekiness and Omega evolve all raise questions about who this show is really for and how clearly its themes are landing.Bonus Content - (Coming Soon)In this

Ultraman Omega 03 DUB Review |Going Ultra

Going Ultra - Presented by Henshin Inspection ·

2025/12/08

Ultraman Omega episode 3 introduces Rekiness, a kaiju with a design that feels straight out of ancient Chinese carvings. He looks incredible. Pegunos shows up as the actual enemy kaiju this week, and Omega and Rekiness team up against him. On paper, this should be a standout episode… but it ends up quieter and flatter than expected.In this review I talk about why the dub makes the episode feel dry, why Pegunos didn’t add much tension, and how Rekiness ends up being the most interesting part even

Ultraman Omega Episode 2 builds around one simple idea: use what you have.Auyumu, Kosei, and Sorato all face the crisis with whatever tools are in front of them, and the dub presents it with a grounded, natural tone. In this review I talk about the theme, the kaiju, and why Omega’s slow deliberate fighting style works so well.Full Ultraman Omega Episode 2 review is here — enjoy the breakdown and stick around for more Going Ultra coverage.Check out the blog version for bonuses, including

The Omega dub finally dropped and it changed the way I experienced Episode 1. The opening fight, the emotional beats, and the performances all landed differently.

Ultraman Omega Episode 5 is a quiet, mythic story about loss, love, and letting go. “Miko and Mikoto” follows a grieving girl who bonds with a serpent deity beast and the cost that bond carries for everyone around her. This review looks at how the episode frames kaiju closer to gods than animals, why the fight lands with real emotional weight, and what it asks of Sorato as Ultraman.Highlights:Kaiju as gods, not animals – Ohebinushi’s role in the storyFriendship, family, and the limits of sustaining

Ultraman Omega 04 Review |Going Ultra

2025/08/07

In this review of Ultraman Omega Episode 4, I break down what worked and what didn’t. Kosei’s over-the-top reaction undercuts the emotional arc, the secret identity slip is baffling, and the toy transformation doesn't land—but there’s still a lot to like.This is the first time we see Rekiness transform into armor for Omega, and it opens up interesting new dynamics for the show. I talk about tactical telekinesis, kaiju bonding mechanics, and how Sorato continues to grow and learned to deal with his

What did you think of Ultraman Omega episode 3?A flying penguin kaiju, a rising mystery, and a theme that hits home: what you want vs. what you should do. In this full review, I dive into Sorato’s evolving moral compass, Kosei’s backstory, Ayumu’s realism, and my ongoing theory about where these kaiju are really coming from.
