Going Backward

I seem to be in an Ultraman-watching mood lately. It has been a while since I last felt this way.

Preparing for Ultraman Saga, sort of. )

Wow, that's a lot of stuff you're planning to rewatch XDD I can completely understand you, I also somehow want to try new things, but end up rewatching old ones instead...

Well, part of that is I don't like to step outside of my comfort zone all that much. I would rather rewatch old things I know I like than try new things I might not know whether I'll like. And that is especially true in this case. Ultraman is familiar to me (in fact, my first introduction to tokusatsu), so I guess it's natural that I keep coming back to it.

Anyway, it's actually not a lot of stuff that I'm planning to rewatch. ^^ Only three series I know I like, so that will be a breeze. Whether I rewatch the other series depends on how I feel later on. (There is not much discussion on Ultraman stuff, if any, so I know I might quickly lose my enthusiasm.)

Lol, well, 3 series seems like quite a lot to me, I hardly ever rewatch stuff XDD

I suppose I see what you mean about the comfort zone, but then again, it is still fun to discover new things. And you can always drop the series if it turns out it was not quite to your tastes XD

Yes, it is fun to discover new things. And I did that (watching new stuff) during the past few years. So, I suppose, for me, the act of rewatching is a new thing in a way since I haven't been doing that. Also, I usually notice new things (some observations/thoughts I overlooked before) upon rewatching. ^^

I completely agree with that, one can notice many interesting details while rewatching - you get too distracted by the action during the first time, so you don't have time to pay attention to surroundings, or things people were wearing or stuff like that.

And watching the series raw or dubbed also help. Subtitles can be pretty distracting as I'm now finding out (missed half of what happened on the screen because I was reading subs).

Yeah, if there is some sort of complicated dialogue going on, it's easy to miss what's happening if you concentrate on reading.
