So... is Dynazenon better than Gridman? I loved Gridman but I'm a bit reluctant on watching this one because I heard the story was very unfocused?

The story is a bit odd, but I found myself enjoying this one more than Gridman.

Could be. Both are good. Dynazenon is a bit different but extremely enjoyable.

gridman’s plot was more concise and overall better, but dynazenon has strengths in other areas. i love dynazenon’s voice acting, it’s very memorable. dynazenon’s cast of characters were just as good, if not better, than gridman’s as well, imo. production-wise they’re equally as good in addition.
if you loved gridman you definitely won’t be disappointed watching dynazenon

I would say that it's a nice addition to the franchise and the story was OK for the most part. Character development could use some work but it's in no way terrible. Just pretty good

Gridman was more plot-based, prioritizing the traditional story and plot progression.

Dynazenon is more character ensemble-based; the story is more of an excuse to explore these different characters and their eventual growth.

Gridman was meh outside of Rikka and Akane's designs and the surprising ending, I didnt hate Gridman but I also did not like it, whereas I loved almost if not every ep of Dynazenon, the way it told the stories of the main characters and their developments made the ride worth every second, the final ep nailed everything I wanted, cool moments of each character and having the main 2 chars end up, dynazenon has been such a surprise hidden gem for me, I did not come in here expecting to get attached to Yume, Yomo and Gauma this much.

Tbh i love Dynazenon more than Gridman
Maybe because different cast and the year anime is created
The animation is far more better than Gridman imo
The story is focusing on all main character (5 chara) and each of them has a little chara development
And this has a bonus romance compare to Gridman

IMO:

Art - EQUAL
Story - EQUAL
Backstory - Dynazenon
End - Gridman

Character development - EQUAL
Relationship building - EQUAL
Comedy - EQUAL
Fanservice - Gridman

While Dynazenon is quite phenomenal, I still prefer Gridman. The overall cast and relationship development is a lot better in dynazenon, but the philosophy, emotional drive, and overall story is better in Gridman. Plus Gridman emulates the show as if it was a live action tokusatsu better as well. I’m a huge tokusatsu fan and Gridman overall was the one that gave me nostalgic feelings of my old days of watching toku shows like Kamen rider. Dynazenon felt pretty inconsistent and some of the scenes were pretty floaty which I felt like fits better in an live action. Overall this show is near masterpiece, solid. Looking forward to future anime from this series.

Both at around the same level, but Gridman comes out on top. It has a more focused cast and story, it handles its ideas much more impactfully, and just sort of hits harder not having a precursor it's clearly echoing like Dynazenon is.
Well I for one already loved Lain.

Absolutely not.

Gridman is one of the very rare recent mecha anime written decently.

Dynaizemon is bland and badly written stuff, the mecha / kaiju part is useless unlike Gridman, the characters are all worse.
Only Gridman episode 12 destroys all of Dynazemon.
This is easily the worst anime in the Trigger studio.

That this has a higher score than Gridman, but also Godzilla SP for the kaiju genre, further proof that today's anime fandom knows little about anime.

I love this more than Gridman in term of animation and voice acting
And the little romance between Yomogi and Yume

Hmm wasn't better for me, what kept me interested in Gridman were the twists and villain and overall mystery of everything but here on Dynazenon which is more character focused, I didnt really feel particularly invested into any character. Yume was kinda interesting at the start but ultimately that didnt really go anywhere.
