Well, it is possible that I might be missing something, but I don't think the guy had ever used a pill to transform? I did a quick re-watch of the part where he couldn't transform, and the choco balls were just replaced with what looked like M&Ms, I think?
Now I kind of want to see that. Mirai getting desperate is a bonus. ^^
And it's nice that Ultraman transforms by eating candy - at least he doesn't need to worry that his transformation item will look silly.
I kind of liked that the kid's name is Mirai - it's a nice name, and it was fun to imagine that they gave him that name after Mebius left Earth to remember Mebius's identity - but, of course, it's not true, since the advertisement was made before Mebius.
Also, I can't stop saying the word nice and doing the thumbs-up gesture D:
(Re-post, because I did it in a wrong place. ^^;; Opening too many windows would do this to me.)
Yes, they were nice commercials. :)
That's a good point there about no silly-looking transformation item. Though it isn't like an Ultra host usually cares about that (I mean, Ultraman Zearth's host transforms by brushing his teeth with a toothbrush); it's the viewer who worries. ^^;;
The entry might imply otherwise, but I actually don't mind that the kid's name is Mirai. It was just a bit...I don't know...confusing? Like I kept superimpose Mebius' image on this kid every time I heard the name? But that's probably just me. Either way, I like your suggestion a lot, and might have to pretend that is the case. ^^
I didn't do the thumbs-up, but at least I sort of cheered whenever they did it while saying 'nice'. ^^;;
Hmm, that's a pretty cool idea about the toothbrush - the show's target audience are young viewers, so that would be a perfect way to make them aware of the importance of dental hygiene :D
But then again, it's better to have a transformation item - what if he ran out of transformation candy?
It was the same for me, I was like - but there is only one Mirai!
Yes, it's actually pretty neat that they were teaching kids about personal hygiene in an Ultraman show. But it took me back the first time I heard about a toothbrush being a transformation item.
But transformation items can go missing, too. I think the original Ultraman once lost his and couldn't transform. There had been at least a few more people careless with their transformation items, though I don't remember off-handed who they were.
Oh, I'll have to get around to re-watching Ultraman Max one of these days because I don't remember that at all. But, yeah, they probably use 'mirai' a lot in those final Max episodes as a sort of promotion for Mebius.
They are still there, I just never thought to check before. Thanks!
