Hey Everyone!
Our team recently completed and released a Science-Themed, 90s After School Special throwback Tokusatsu short film called Secondary Education. The film premiered just this week on Justin Lin's YOMYOMF Network on Youtube, and was also featured on Henshin Justice Unlimited by Keith Justice shortly afterwards. We thought it would be perfect for you guys here at Tokunation, and we'd love for you to check it out! WATCH HERE: http://youtu.be/jQN-YE5G7lo ABOUT THE FILM The movie is essentially about three high school kids who find out during after school detention that their Chemistry teacher has been hiding a double secret life as a crime fighting Super Sentai Hero. They have to help him battle an escaped mutant lobster using principles from a Chemistry test that they failed, and in the process learn the value of science. REVIEW ON HENSHIN JUSTICE UNLIMITED SECONDARY EDUCATION, The Independent Toku You Have GOT to See! http://henshinjustice.com/2013/09/25...ve-got-to-see/ Please feel free to post comments or responses for us here. We really hope you like our film!!! |

That was pretty fun. I do wish the teacher was the focus, and not the students, but eh. I still enjoyed it. The hero's design was nice and giant lobsters are always good villains

That was fantastic. Easy to get into, fun, and a perfectly condensed little film. The whole chemistry thing wasn't nearly as overplayed as it tends to be in a lot of media. I hope to see more stuff like this in the future!

Nice. But a true tokusatsu hero uses a changer. Still, it does show how much science affects us in our lives.

This was great. The costumes were of pretty awesome quality, the acting was great, the camera was great, and the best part, you didn't come in here being a pretentious ass and beg us for money.
A+ in my book. I'd love to see more of these PSAs that end up saving the day sort of mini episodes. |

That was a lot of fun, and hey a toku hero that has to put his suit on, that's new.

Hahaha, you make a good point. Part of our decision for him not to have a changer or an actual henshin was based around my idea that he's really not QUITE a real Tokusatsu Hero yet. He's just a really smart chemistry teacher who wants to be one and hasn't quite figured it all out yet.

I really enjoyed this. Your fondness of the toku genre really comes through and I think that really helps make the piece stronger.
Thank you for sharing this with us! |

I don't know how I missed this (I blame the work schedule).
This was absolutely amazing. You guys really, really hit the head on the nail and created a 12 minute masterpiece. No joke. Every little detail (from the Salty candy) to the chemistry quiz is brought in to the story for a purpose which, by the end of the film, we see. Great writing, likable characters, a fun-looking suit, an even funner hero in the teacher, and music that fits the setting perfectly.
