Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S3 is Great Trek Playing it Safe | REVIEW

Strange New Worlds returns with a double premiere: “Hegemony, Part 2” picks up right where last season’s cliffhanger left off, diving into a high-stakes showdown with the Gorn—but not without some disappointingly safe storytelling. Then comes “Wedding Bell Blues,” a lighter, Q-adjacent romp featuring the always-delightful Rhys Darby bringing chaos, charm, and a very familiar queer-coded performance. Season 3 kicks off with confidence—but still plays it close to the vest.

ULTRAMAN OMEGA Episode 1 “Here Comes an Alien”

The “Land of Light” extends across many different realities, some might even call them “dimensions.” In our reality, we are unfamiliar with several things. Even the inhabitants of the “Land of Light,” the Ultraman, are unknown to us. But something has changed. The Kaijus are coming.

★STORY↓
Kosei Hoshimi, a young warehouse worker, stumbles upon a mysterious amnesiac man secretly devouring his yakisoba. When the man suddenly takes off, Kosei’s pursuit lands him right in the middle of a kaiju attack tearing through the city! Witnessing Kosei’s compassion for a girl in the shelter, the amnesiac resolves to shield the city from the kaiju, and a crimson light ignites within him!

The episode is in Japanese language, don’t forgett to switch on English subtitles.

ULTRAMAN OMEGA

He fell from the sky…

On this Earth where neither heroes nor kaiju exist, an alien suddenly falls from the sky. This Ultra’s symbol is the red space boomerang he holds, the Omega Slugger, and his name means “ultimate.”
“Omega” is an alien who has lost his memories. Taking human form and adopting the name “Sorato”, he becomes interested in the life forms called “Earthlings” that he is encountering for the first time and attempts to understand them.
When a giant life form appears, amnesiac Sorato recalls a word—“kaiju.” As these kaiju continue to appear before him, a sense of duty awakens in Sorato’s subconscious. He transforms into “Ultraman Omega” and an intense, fast-paced fight unfolds.
The Earthlings, in turn, are grappling with encountering these gigantic life forms and the alien that fights with a red slugger for the first time, watching from various places and trying to understand what they are.
Before long, Sorato and an ordinary young man—an alien and an Earthling, become friends.
This ambitious work poses a question through these friends’ resonating hearts; “Why does Ultraman protect the Earth?”
