Tokusatsu Gagaga Discussion Thread
Big Nova subs has released the subs for the first episode of Tokusatsu Gagaga
https://twitter.com/bignovasubs/stat...59216253620225 Even though the show itself is not really a Tokusatsu series I thought someone might want to discuss the episodes on this forum. |
Wish I could stream this. Hopefully Jatoku will get it.

Tokusatsu GAGAGA is meta and relatable in a more depressing and serious outlook of rejected otaku with a kind of loser dead end Job life. It's no akibaranger and instead feature a girl makes it less creepy or offensive I guess. It's better than the after 5 one with AU kuuga and Drake. It's based of a manga that in turn inspired a lot of similar anime otaku stories.

I'm all in for this. This not only applies to toku but geek culture in general =)

"I hope your favourite show gets pre-empted by Golf for 5 years!" Oh shit!
God I can relate to too much of this show, but I liked this a lot! I hope the rest of the show (how many episodes is it?) stays as charming and funny as this episode. The Jushowan and Emerjason costumes are surprisingly high quality. They look cool too. |
Any streaming sites picked it up yet?

If the former, I don't think so. If it's the later, well you might want to check kissasian.sh |
Having watched the the first episode, I have to agree with how relatable the lead character is. Even if it is done for a slightly more comedic effect you do feel her pain. Although I do like how the "MoTW" is related to her inner struggle. Because if Mom is going to be the big stress causer for her next week I can't wait to see what her monster looks like.

I really liked the first episode. She's cute, I related to a bit of it. I like the, 'turn you head and have a tortured inner dialogue' device that reminded me of Akiba-Red who would do sort of the same thing. Karaoke-Monster was funny, "I can keep this up for 5 weeks!" .. and he explodes in toku fashion. Can't help but think a pretty toku-fan like she is would be a dream girl for a lot of guys. |
I wasn't particularly interested in this show, but I saw TV-Nihon was subbing it too and went ahead and took a chance on it. If the whole show is going to be as good as the first episode, I sincerely hope other people are giving it a chance too.
I expected a mildly amusing, jokey sendup of tokusatsu, but pretty much all the gags were genuinely hilarious, and there's a real heart to it I didn't expect at all. It's relatable on a level that goes beyond just toku. I think pretty much anyone who has a hobby or interest they're passionate about that isn't particularly mainstream could watch this and get something out of it. |
