I caught the first season of Netflix’s reboot of Ultraman over the weekend, and it’s pretty good though it’s animated in the same way as other Netflix anime like Knights Of Sidonia and Godzilla, and it irritates me every time that I see it.

Visually, it looks like the producers put a cartoon filter on CGI characters; an awkward mix of traditional hand drawn animation–it’s not, though that’s the look–with cutting edge computer animation.

Stick with it though because no matter what you think about the animation, the story is pretty interesting, playing more like Alien Nation than what I remember from Ultraman.
