Ultra Seven to be exact. I'm not sure how this got past my radar, but Shout Factory! released a Region 1 DVD set for the phenomenal Ultra Series, Ultra Seven.
Now, years ago, when BCI released the Region 1 set for the original Ultraman (1966) series, I had hopes that they would continue with Ultra Seven, but nothing came of it. Despite the complaints that the masters probably came from Chaiyo and not Tsurabaya, I'm just happy to be able to see the entire series.
Except for that episode, which was also directed by Akio Jissoji. And I have a slight issue with the subtitles. (The timing's off sometimes. I question the accuracy a little, and already saw one or two typos.)
Overall, even if you're just a Kaiju junkie, this is a must see. Hopefully, Shout Factory! will not drop the ball, and we will have a Region 1 "Return of Ultraman" release before 2020. I don't even dare dream for a Taro or Leo set. Not yet, anyway.
