Feature Shows Extravaganza

January 21st.

TBS aired the first episode of Tiga.

The story is still the same, without any changes. But the theme song Miracle Reappears became the Japanese version of Take Me Higher.

The singer is still the V6 band!

In order to practice this song well and ensure accurate pronunciation, Gu Miao and her team members signed up to learn Japanese for a long time, which almost delayed filming.

Originally, we had negotiated a deal with a singer before.

The singer is a language genius and can seamlessly switch between Japanese, English and Chinese. He was chosen to sing the theme song to save money.

As a result, the guy ran away.

To be precise, that guy was unhappy in love. He publicly announced on Twitter that he would leave the music scene for a period of time to reorganize his feelings...

The cooperation that was agreed was naturally blown!

As a last resort, Meng Lang decided to let V6 learn Japanese and English to replace the original singer when the PD Neon Branch had no spare tire.

Facts have proved that this trick really works!

Although the pronunciation is still a little flawed, V6 is a Chinese team after all, and singing like this has satisfied Neon fans.

And, when they learned.

After Gu Miao, the lead singer of the V.6 band, turned out to be the actor who played Da Gu in the play, the slight dissatisfaction disappeared instantly.

The protagonist sings the theme song himself. This is the first time in the history of Ultraman. Is there any dissatisfaction?

What! You mean Uncle Meng?

But pull it down!

He has only sung Taylor's theme song, the theme song of the first generation, which was sung by Zuo Lun.

In addition to the theme song, the neon version also changed the opening clip.

Because Tiga is a weekly drama that is being filmed and aired at the same time, there was not much material accumulated when the Mandarin version was aired. Therefore, the opening of the film seems very simple, with only a few wonderful moments going back and forth.

The neon version is different.

At this point in time, the Mandarin version of Tiga has been broadcast to the 39th episode of Ultraman Bai Qi. Even Kirino, the person with the superpower precognition, has appeared, so how could there be a shortage of materials?

Therefore, the opening sequence is very nice.

However, the title sequence is still the title sequence, and no matter how wonderful the editing is, it is not as attractive as the main film.

The first episode is still the same!

A mysterious meteorite falls and Golzan suddenly appears. You Lian mentioned the pyramid, and GUTS set off to look for it. They met Melba and Golzan in a double row. When Da Gu was about to die, he turned into a beam of light and merged into the giant's body...

There is only one way to revive the giant, and that is for Dagu to turn into light!

This line from You Lian is simply a classic among classics. Although Neon does not have the homophone of Da Gu = Da Gu, this is an imported drama.

The so-called imported dramas must have been broadcast by others and the TV station bought them after the results were good.

Therefore, some memes are also universal.

It has been broadcast in China for so long, and everyone knows the homophone of big bones boil into soup. After Diga introduced neon, this homophone was also introduced into neon.

But it's a pity that it didn't become popular.

After all, the cultural backgrounds are different, even if we know that big bones make soup. Neon netizens also couldn’t understand, what does big bone soup have to do with Diga?

Homophone? That’s really hard to understand.

In the eyes of domestic audiences, the homophonic memes in Japanese are just one bad joke after another, which is completely incomprehensible.

In the eyes of neon viewers, big bones boiled into soup is also a cold joke, not interesting and incomprehensible.

Therefore, the price of neon bones has not increased!

But then again...

Even without this homophone, it would not affect Tiga's popularity in Neon. After all, the four giants of Tsuguya's Chu Qi Di Ling plus an European political commissar, one can imagine their popularity!

Not to mention the status of Heisei Big Brother, nor the honor of The Only Nebula Award, just based on the plot and setting, Tiga can have a good time in Neon.

This is the first Ultraman work that gives Ultraman an incarnation of light and weakens his image to highlight his humanity.

Dagu is both light and human!

This sentence perfectly explains the biggest difference between Tiga and many Showa seniors.

Tiga is Dagu, and Dagu is Tiga.

These two are the same individual!

Unlike Ultraman in the Showa period, there is a real body and a human body. From beginning to end, Diga himself never appeared.

Secondly, the plot is very innovative!

A huge world view, a new background different from the M78 universe. The story has gradually moved from a surprise and horror style to an orthodox science fiction style. This is an extremely important change.

People often ask, are tokusatsu dramas considered science fiction dramas?

If it's Showa Austria/Showa Knights/Showa Sentai, etc., Meng Lang doesn't think it counts. They should be classified as surprise horror shows.

Starting from Tiga, the story of Ultraman no longer follows the old path of surprise and curiosity, but begins to incorporate innovation and develop imagination to follow the line of science fiction and fantasy.

This stage can be classified as a science fiction drama!

In fact, to be precise, the real transformation of the Ultraman series should start with Taylor. Since then, there have been signs of this.

but……

Leo Eddie's sword took a wrong turn and almost put out the flames. Fortunately, Diga added another bundle of firewood and was saved.

The novel setting background, excellent plot, and three form transformations full of unknown possibilities are all the advantages of Tiga.

Thanks to these advantages, Tiga's performance did not disappoint everyone after its premiere on Neon.

No. 1 in ratings for the same period!

It failed to break the record, but this is mainly due to the poor environment of Neon in recent years, and the ratings of its subtitled works are generally poor.

The rise of anime is so fast!

In the early years, tokusatsu dramas could beat anime. Especially the popular tokusatsu dramas, which almost dominate the charts at the same time.

But not anymore in recent years...

With the number of neon neon babies declining year by year, otaku culture is being sought after by more and more young men and women, and the neon cultural industry is ushering in a revolution.

In the past, there were many newborns, and many children were born and grew up every year. Therefore, the market for children’s works did not have to worry about shrinking.

However, the number of new births is decreasing year by year, and there is no new audience to supplement. The market for works by young people is gradually being eroded by works by home-oriented works.

After all, children will grow up!

When I was a child, I loved watching Ultraman Kamen Rider. When I grew up, I loved watching 2D Wife. I was addicted to light novels and erotic comics. How could I have time to deal with other works?

Speaking of this matter, President Ono is also very worried.

He wrote a report of more than a thousand words and submitted it to the group's board of directors. He believes that the current market environment is changing suddenly, and companies need to adapt in advance, and sticking to the past is not enough.

So-called adaptation to the environment, he made a suggestion.

Perhaps, we can try to make a work for a broad youth audience. This will expand the existing viewing base and reduce audience loss.

Good suggestion!

After reading the report, Meng Lang replied to President Ono via email: I had a similar idea, but I never thought about what subject to choose. Now that I think about it, how about choosing Ultraman?

Ultraman?

President Ono was stunned when he received the reply.

There are all hints between the lines in my words, except that the four characters Kamen Rider are missing. After you finished reading it, did you tell me about Ultraman?

Playing dumb? Still really stupid?
