In the case of "Ultraman Ace", everyone initially speculated that it would pay tribute to Ultraman Ace, because it coincided with the anniversary of Ace, and the English abbreviation of Ace was very similar to Ace. But I never thought that this tribute turned out to be Guimanjack, mainly because of director Takanori Tsujimoto, he is the most faithful Guiman mystery, which is also known to fans, and as a result, in this "Ultraman Ark", I saw a lot of tributes to Guiman's elements, and even said to be a reproduction.
The logo of "Ultraman Aki" is very similar to the logo of "Ultraman Jack", whether it is the way it is arranged or the size of the letters, it is almost the same. Such a tribute is so obvious that it is easy for fans to see it. I don't know if everyone can see it?
Then there is the background picture that appeared in the trailer of "Ultraman Aki", which will definitely be the picture in the opening of the Aki, the background composed of light clusters, and the arrangement of fonts, which is exactly the same as "Ultraman Jack". This kind of tribute is not very great, but it is really able to pull everyone's memories. And maybe for director Takanori Tsujimoto, he doesn't have much ambition himself, which is different from the previous directors. So this "Ultraman Aki" is likely to be his dream journey, and most of it pays tribute to and reproduces Ultraman Jack.
If the opening or something is a bit far-fetched, let's take a look at the appearance and starting style of Ultraman Ark. It's also a fist tightened, the other palm is spread, and the posture of slightly crooked neck is the same as the appearance of Ultraman Jack. It's just that Ultraman Aki uses an upward shooting angle, while Ultraman Jack uses a frontal shooting angle. However, the appearance of Ultraman Aki is still very different from Ultraman Jack, which is one of the reasons why everyone feels that Aki's appearance pose is a bit weird!
Then there is the question of the transformer, the transformation device of the sub-carving is the "sub-carving awakening device", which is a huge square fast, but inside is the shape of a square piece. And Jack's bracelet is also shaped like this, although the size of the props is different, but the shape of the core position is quite similar.
So you can imagine what Ultraman Jack is called in Showa? That's probably a weapon master, and he's also very good at light skills. And Ultraman Ake can also reproduce these, mainly because Ake is based on imagination, plus the setting of using eyes to conjure a long sword, I feel that there will be a lot of weapons in the future. In addition, Yake also has a lot of light skills in the trailer, which can also make everyone look forward to it.
Finally, there is the question of monsters, how similar are Tegun in "Ultraman Jack" and the new monsters that will appear in the first episode of "Ultraman Arkery"? In addition, in this "Ultraman Aki", I am afraid that I will see the return of a lot of monsters from "Ultraman Jack".
