The tragedy of hazbin hotel is that truly this show desperately wants 20 filler episodes per season that have a contained plot where the characters learn about morality that have like very little bearing on the overarching plot. Anyway death to Amazon

Ultraman: Rising ━ Identity

ੈ✩‧₊˚ Just feeling sad and crying over the fact that this movie goes into identity and how I was able to understand Ken's character.

"Where's the Japanese version of this guy?"

I remember my sister asking me what this meant, and all I could do was let out a little sigh. I also remembered how Kenji got asked how he would adjust to "Japanese Baseball," with Ken responding with "Baseball is baseball, man." which could have a deeper meaning (I'll explain later) or the little montage when we see Kenji just being so tired and screwing up at Baseball and a fan yelling, "Go back to America." Or how the announcer commented on Kenji saying that "Japanese baseball was just too much for Ken." For/In Japan, he isn't Japanese, but American, all because he spent more than half his life in America, ignoring the fact that he was born (and raised until 6) in Japan.

However, in an interview with Ami, Ken mentioned how he was made fun of for how he looked, talked, and for what he ate. Signaling how he was racially discriminated in America, and all he could do was "give them something else to talk about," which was his success. They wouldn't talk about his looks, nor how he spoke, or what he ate or came from. Instead, they would talk about how great of a Baseball athlete he is, they wouldn't see him as Japanese or American, but as a Baseball Player; Ken Sato.

But not only does this film go into racial identity but also self-discovery/self-identity. Ken tries to balance his life out by trying to mix both his life as a Baseball player and Ultraman. And as we know, it doesn't go well in the beginning. Having built a persona around Ken Sato, the baseball player, and Ultraman (the one his father was) Ken is really struggling trying to find himself. We end up learning that Ken is a man who enjoys his career as a Baseball player, we also learn that, although successful, he had to try and reach that success like any other. We also learn that Kenji is still trapped in the past, a child with unsolved issues.

At the end of the film, Kenji is able to embrace his persona as Ultraman, adding it to his identity. Because at the end of the day, just like Ken said, "Baseball is baseball," and "ken is and will always just be ken."
