This is great!

As a long time fan of the decades-long running Sunday morning super hero hour, i.e. the Kamen Rider and Super Sentai/Ranger shows, there's plenty of tropes around these shows and their descendants to play around with.

Unlike the recent similarly themed shows like Miss Kuroitsu Of The Monster Development Department, Love After World Domination, and Mr Villain's Day Off, this one actually has an art and animation budget!

The shaking rage of the nameless grunts, and the hopelessness of their situation, their finding small joy in rare encouragements from the audience, are shown with great heart.

The hilarious bit where the grunts whip up a poorly conceived monster-of-the-week in a couple of minutes sounds about right for some of the monsters I see on these shows.

I think the Rangers as bad guys is done a little too obviously, but that's comic book villains for you.

Anyway, one of the best first episodes this season!

I really, really liked Love After World Domination. When the anime didn't do well, the manga was very quickly axed. Such a great series that was ended all too soon.
