I love that pinheaded brute While I believe Red King is an iconic monster in the galaxy Of "Ultra" kaiju his fighting tactics in his first appearance, the episode entitled The Lawless Monster Zone were good against Chandra(the winged monster he fought earlier in the episode) but bumbling against Ultraman. Of course, he returned, and with a more aggressive disposition I think, in The Rogue Comet Tsuiphon. "Ro-Dan" Wouldn't a Godzilla vs Red King battle be magnificent? Possibly, but unless Red King was given some kind of beam weapon(s) this battle would, I think, be very short. "Ro-Dan" Ultraseven: Cool weapons (Eye Slugger, Emerium Ray, Wideshot). Also no color timer weakness. Plus, the dude ain't afraid to fight human sized I also think Ultraseven's close in fighting abilities are very good, even underrated-that said I agree with you Dan that the original Ultraman is still the best at hand-to hand fighting with kaiju. thumbs up "Ro-Dan" mo-fo At the risk of sounding like an ignorant old geezer what does this mean? It appears to be an abbreviation of some kind, but different from the various and sundry "internet' abbreviations I see all the time from teenagers, like "teh", "roxorz" and one I especially hate, "XD." "Ro-Dan" Red King: Badass of the kaiju world. Fists of fury If were to assign the words "bad ass" to an Ultraman kaiju it would most certainly be assigned to "The Monster Prince", Gamora. This monster is sheer brute power. Even after having most of its tail blasted off Gamora still managed to take on the defense forces head on, and engage Ultraman in a second battle. It took Ultraman two full episodes to bring this creature down, and this monster managed to put a whipping(literally) on Ultraman without any beam weapons of any kind. "Ro-Dan" Pigmon: If I could have a kaiju buddy he'd be my bro Good choice. I'd rather hang with the Da-Da's, but that's just me. "Ro-Dan" Hayata: A childhood hero. The man is too damned cool Agreed. Susumu Kurobe has always been on my list of "top ten people I'd like to meet". "Ro-Dan" Captain Muramatsu: Effective and decisive leader Agreed, and IMO the absolute best Captain of all the "Ultra" series. thumbs up "Ro-Dan" The Science Patrol: The first and the best, in my view. The spider-gun is crazy cool and the "beetle fighter" is dope Good weapons. My favorites: the cellular disintegrator bomb used against Gigas in The Rogue Comet Tsuiphon and the Sparenger Menace Cap used to obliterate Zeton in Farewell Ultraman!. "Ro-Dan" The team (Ultra Squad?) from Ultraseven is pretty damned cool too Agreed and, I might add, had the sexiest female member, played by Yuriko Hishimi. "Ro-Dan" Ultraman (I've only seen a few episodes of Ultraseven but I suspect I'd enjoy that show just as much as the original) You would enjoy Ultraseven Dan. In the words of that bearded guy on "The Men's Wearhouse" commercials: "I guarantee it!"
