I do think it's probably generic enough by itself and a good reg.

Without the "man" it's a little strange to say though...

lol. excellent video.

but i guess that ultraman would have been a TM anyway.

i did notice though the the .JP of ultra was registered back in 2001 by a native. At the time he obviously made a conscious decision not to reg the .com; this I think gives more weight to the arguement of the value of .JP vs .com
