RE: The day I cried in VR / VRで泣いた日 (English&Japanese)

Interestingly, my son loves the old special effects. He enjoys the new Ultraman every year, but the only one he asks to rewatch again and again is Ultraman Taro. But I suppose that as he gets older, he will probably change and dislike the old effects.
My only experience with VR was when I was teaching at Toyota and one of the students asked me if I wanted to try their VR demo. They had created an old house with several floors, just so they could learn how to use the software. At first I thought it would be just like watching a video game, but I was surprised at how real it seemed to my body.
It's good we aren't close to Tokyo—I'm sure my son would want to go to this Ultraseven VR show. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I think your son has good taste. The technology of today's special effects is great, but sometimes the old ones seem more realistic. The stories and story settings are also simpler and easier to understand than modern ones, and although there are some rough edges, I think many of them are haunting.
Ultramantaro is good! The actor who plays the main character is handsome and the last episode makes me cry no matter how many times I watch it. Age doesn't necessarily mean he's going to hate them. Like me.
I thought exactly the same way. Maybe our surprise was greater because we didn't have excessive expectations.
