Vast majority of anime was "seasonal anime" at time it aired.

But yeah, this one is worth it even if just for Rikka and Akane. At least they are the only reasons I watch it...

It's a pretty fun and relaxing (for me) series to watch.

It depends, I mean it is a huge homage to Tokusatsu and kaiju stuff, so if you enjoy Ultraman etc it;s gonna be a hell of a lot more enjoyable. So I would be biased, but only one way to find out if you like it really....
Can I offer you an egg is this trying time?

I think it's worth at least a few episodes. It does homages to tokusatsu wonderfully, but it's also got interesting direction and a pace that feels slow yet fast all at the same time.

It's pretty good and fun, I don't even feel the time passing while watching, and from the four I'm watching during this season, it's the one I always look forward to the next episode the most. So I say go for it.

Watch it then since it will (at lesat partially) answer your needs. It's apparently a work of love for thse things.

(without that kind of special resonnance, one would think it is merely a pretty butempty time waster)

It's a good show to watch, if your not into Sentai or Toku at the moment.

It's worth it. Best show of the studio Trigger imo. More on the level like Kill la Kill. Not like the boring stuff (Kinzaiver).

The show has a very unique style of directing and sound design that is rather interesting. The animation, not including the CG fights, is also very good. There are also subtle hints in the plot that this is going to be more than your average monster of the week show.

If you watch a couple of episodes, and fail to pick up on any of these things, or if you have otherwise failed to pick up any of these elements when watching anime in general, then you should avoid this series since you'll probably just think of any reason to nitpick it.

This show is surprisingly good and sadly underrated (only scoring a 7 so far? WTF?). A lot of people seem to have dismissed it as yet another disposable Trigger mecha, which it isn't.

The story is simple and very character driven, art and sound are great, animation surprisingly good, and the character design attractive (ahem).

The first couple episodes don't necessarily do a good job selling the strong points of the show, so it's worth sticking through 3 or 4 before passing judgement.

It's definitely something you might like then. The biggest deciding factor in liking this show is whether or not someone likes or tolerates the tokusatsu genre. You already have experience with it and liked it as a kid, so it's more likely you'll like it.

It's not some super amazing anime that'll make everyone's top 5 list, but it's worth a watch

If you enjoy tokusatsu and/or mecha, then it's an absolute must-watch. Otherwise, it will probably come off as generic and uninteresting.

I say it is ok. I rate it 6/10 or maybe 7/10 if the last two episodes are good


THere is much better anime in this season. I only recommend watching it if you are watching all the good anime in this season and still have time to watch one more anime.

You should watch jojo, best anime of the year

Not really, the direction they went with this anime is not really my cup of tea like the use of BGM and scenes that drag, just kinda annoying.

Nah, I'd say it's even worse if you enjoy either toku or mecha stuff. Sure it got some nice transformations every once in a while but other than that it's pretty lame with the fights and it never hypes itself up enough times.

If you like Kaiju Movies like Godzilla or Tonkusatsu Shows like Ultraman, Kamen Rider or Super Sentai/Power Rangers Then Yes, You are gonna love this. It replicates almost perfectly the feeling of seeing 2 dudes in big suits fight.

Even If you don't like Tonkusatsu or Kaiju Films you Should Give this a Shot. Its a Great Gateway into the genre for anime fans.Maybe you end up liking it and Watching the 1993 Gridman Live action or Watching the 40+ Seasons of Super Sentai Outhere.

Don't Knock it 'till you try it.

Even though Most of my Tonkusatsu Experience comes from Watching PR and SS for years (I started Watching PR With Wild Force and stop watching the genre with ToQger) I really loved this Show because it gives me a similar feeling. I honestly Got in the mood to get back into SS and Tonku in general thanks to SSSS.Gridman. I liked how the Fights don't look too Anime and That it could all have been done with Basic SFX and Practical FX in the 1993 version.

if you are someone like me who grew up watching power rangers, kamen rider or anything like them then this is the show for you,
it also explain why the show is a hit in japan unlike the west because there are more japanese people who grew up with em kaiju stuff.
lets just say its directed toward this nieche group of people.
