IReallyDoubtIt 04/22/20 4:59:56 AM #106:	So I'm just gonna take a look at the first two episodes of everything's Toei's putting on the channel. Started with National Kid because it seemed the oldest, being in black and white and from 1960. First episode was mostly about aliens threatening the world to stop using Nuclear weaponry, as the rest of the universe has already agreed it is too dangerous. Some kids follow a strange man into the wilderness where he then transforms into a furry, and is surrounded by other furries. They start kidnapping the children because that's usually what toku monsters do when cornered. Enter National Kid, who is not a kid but I think an astrologist? Apparently he's already mastered the four dimensions per the intro, so dunno what he's doing beating up these mooks. At the end of the first episode, one of the nuclear scientists gets in a car at the behest of a business man wearing a sick mask. As the car drives away, it vanishes. This is seen as a declaration of war. Episode 2 begins with the kidnapped scientist returning, but in some sort of trance. He is directed by a voice to steal more information on their Nuclear weaponry. He is joined by two more furries, who are all surprised when National Kid phases through the door. The aliens, (called the Inca Venusians), direct the scientist to attack Kid. What follows is one of the dumber fight scenes I've seen, where the scientist begins strangling Kid, Kid pushes him back a little, the scientist leans forward again, and then is finally thrown back. A very action and grunt-filled minute. The rest is just an extended chase/fight sequence with the furries. One of them hits the ground too fast I guess and turns into a humanoid-shaped stain on the ground, while the other flees as soon as the police show up. Kid requests the Venusian stain be analyzed for further info on the aliens. National Kid is a square, that's about all I came out of this thinking. Will probably not watch more, but at its age, it's a curiosity for sure. --- Podcast/Audiobook Board https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1364- View my ASCII art and others' at https://thenewhotness.info/ <cite>IReallyDoubtIt posted [p:937862588] in Toku Threa...
