657 – Neo Ultra Q – Quo Vadis & Laundry Day

In this episode, we begin our look at the 2013 Japanese TV series Neo Ultra Q, which was intended as a second season of 1966’s Ultra Q. We’ll be looking at them two episodes at a time.In the first episode, Quo Vadis we are introduced to a world populated with kaiju, not all of them being overtly dangerous. Tensions run high between the anti-kaiju and the kaiju preservation factions as one kaiju inexorably makes its way through a city toward a sacred destination. Then, in Laundry Day, Mr. Brethren runs a laundry service and the quality of his work is legendary. Mr. Brethren is also a kindly, shy kaiju. What happens when the UN Secretary-General comes and asks for something really big to be cleaned?
