In the future war has spun out of control, causing a massive drop in the population and shifting combat further and further into the realm of what was once considered science fiction: Unmanned drones, combat AI, and orbital weaponry now rule the battlefield. Or at least they did until the sudden appearance of so-called ‘Gun Girls’, ordinary looking girls wielding obsolete firearms with unheard of destructive power. Kerry is supposedly the original Gun Girl on which the others are based… yet she’s unable to remember anything beyond wanting to become a pâtisserie.

A mix of post-apocalyptic action and schoolgirl comedy with minor dramatic elements.

ULTRAMAN

Posted on April 7, 2019 7:44 am by Offkorn Comment

Though having returned to space after saving the world decades earlier, Ultraman did not leave the planet undefended: An Ultraman Factor was left behind in the body of Shin Hayata, the human who fought with him against the giant monsters attacking Earth, to be passed down through his descendants in case another alien menace ever appeared. That time has arrived, and it now falls to his son Shinjirou to don the Ultraman mantle.

An action series with a moderate level of drama and minor comic relief elements toward the end. While it’s a sequel to the first Ultraman TV series, no familiarity with the franchise is required to watch it.
