Time yet again for my annual tradition of 80% copy/pasting a look back on the previous year and the shows, characters, and moments that stood out to us. It was, broadly speaking, not a great year for pretty much anything, but that doesn't mean that we couldn't have fun watching Japanese stunt actors in costumes choreographically whaling on each other (when production wasn't shut down due to Covid-19).
As always, for releases of this year I'm counting any series that aired any episodes during 2020, including:
Ryusoulger
Kiramager
Kamen Rider Zero-One
Kamen Rider Saber
Ultraman Z
Garo Versus Road
I assume something Power Rangers, probably.
And again, for movies I'm counting anything that came out this year as well as anything that came out last year but wasn't available as a dvd/fansub until this year. If you want to include stuff that hasn't been available for viewing outside of Japan yet but you're pretty sure is going to be really, really awesome, go ahead.

Biggest Surprise of 2020
And, because some things in 2020 were an incredibly drawn-out and repetitive arc about two companies challenging each other to increasingly silly competitions to determine the fate of a hostile takeover bid where one side was blatantly cheating but the other side never called them out on it and instead focused on hugging berserk robots while screaming their name in the hopes that maybe,
maybe
it would get them to calm down this time even though it failed every single time in the past... you know, as a general example:
