I agree with many of your points, but I actually enjoyed all of Zero's content, because it was the kind of rollicking ridiculous space-opera-epic-odyssey-larger-than-life-adventure that almost depends on the hero being overpowered. I'd go so far as to say that part of being an Ultraman is being OP, as Mebius said, "Being an Ultraman is making the impossible possible."

Some Ultras will die, but if they do, they'll just get resurrected. No villain will ever be truly able to defeat the light, that's one of the basis of the series. If you don't like, how blatant it was in Zero, that's fully understandable, but I don't think it's something to hold against him.

Jack was a ripoff because they wanted to gain ratings from people who remembered the original Ultraman. Lazy, yes, but it's something I understand. I actually like Jack's series because it is a lot darker and dramatic than Seven or Ultraman, at least in terms of how MAT responds and reacts to living in a world of monsters, but I think you hit upon its flaws very well, some which Ace (especially its defence team, TAC,) share.

Spark Dolls are LAME and overused at this point it would be nice to know why attack teams get rebooted so often. One explanation, is that, the series does not take place over one year. In episode 20 of Ace, Hokuto has already been in TAC for three years, so maybe they just need to get new, fresher, members in there.
