I’m not too worried about the design, though. Higuchi was a co-designer on Powered, so it’ll probably be a nod to the original in some way
I knew I should’ve gone with ‘freak flag’.LSD Jellyfish wrote:Because the biggest blockbuster in Japan is an art house film.Millenial88 wrote:Tonally, I just want Anno and Higuchi to wave that art-house flag proudly just like Shin-G.

It astounds me to this day how people hold this view of Shin. It`s one of the most crowd pleasing films to date in Japan.
It's not an arthouse film in the strictest sense (if there even is a strict sense to such an ambiguous term), but it definitely has a lot more of an arthouse sensibility than most movies in the genre.LSD Jellyfish wrote:Because the biggest blockbuster in Japan is an art house film.Millenial88 wrote:Tonally, I just want Anno and Higuchi to wave that art-house flag proudly just like Shin-G.

Ultraman the Next. Set out to do what Anno and crew are most likely out to do also: reinvent the character.
Yeah everyone says he can't be freakish cause he's a hero (fair point) but he's also an alien. I think you can find the right balance as Mothra is sort of freakish looking in some incarnations cause they play up the bug part but still retain her kind benevolent nature and heroics.SoggyNoodles2016 wrote:based off this video (which is a good primer on what to expect IMO), I'm guessing something like OG Ultraman but offputting enough to keep the alien-ness inherent.
Yes please.LamangoKaijura wrote:I HATE BEING OUTDONE, BUT DEAR GOD, THIS IS AMAZING
