Oh it's all but given at this point given the Dynazenon event where they said "More Details in Winter about Gridman X Dynazenon" was also where they confirmed that they are planning to get it into SRW but are waiting for the next major installment to do so.

The two casts are very much polar opposites of one another, with Gridman focusing on people who are more closed off and take effort to fully understand, while Dynazenon pours out practically everything front and center. Both result in the same ballpark of a message on the theme of why creating bonds is important, they're just executed in different ways.

The problem is that, atleast from my perspective, the show did not do a good job on giving everyone equal amounts of attention in how they contributed to the group as a whole, and instead most time is spent on the Yomogi and Yume romance. Which, if you find them adorable together, great, but there's no reason some time couldn't've been taken away from that aspect in order to give some much more needed focus on everyone else in the main cast.
I really wanted to like these characters, and it was such a shame that balanced screen time wasn't granted to them all. It's part of what made the Goldburn episode so special to me; We were finally focusing on something else. Gauma Best Boy. Quote:
Yeeeaaahh, that trailer does not do the show any favors. But hey, if you finish it and feel like sharing your thoughts in this thread, then by all means!
That said, for Garo's Anime Adaption, I've heard mixed things, leaning more towards the negative, so this should be interesting. Though JAM Project's openings (as they did pretty much all of Garo's songs, Anime and Toku) are still amazing, so good or bad, this show still has a great opening. |

Carved Seal of Flames and it's accompanying movie, Divine Flame are pretty great honestly. Probably the best of the anime trilogy, and ranking both series and movie they end up hitting my Top 6 which are comprised of three series and three movies. Crimson Moon... I've not heard good things about it from people who have watched it and are into Garo. To the point where the series order guides I read online usually recommend never starting with it. Vanishing Line... it basically automatically goes up to second best for me due to how I haven't watched Crimson Moon (That might change soon). It's a lot more straightforward in some aspects but I really enjoyed it for what it was. I really wish we'd get a Vanishing Line movie! |

as someone who's seen all garo anime
i wont dispute whats been said about seal of flames and vanishing line crimson moon however...... the show had some very good ideas and one of it's earlier episodes is still one of my favorites in the franchise problem is some of said ideas were executed very poorly or were wasted I do have more to say on the show, but i'll leave that for the actual watchthrough and discussion later on

Was planning to watch the first live-action season too, but it stopped getting uploaded to YouTube and the first half of physical set has long been out of print.

Also! I figure I might as well post this again here as a reminder for where the thread is currently at. I'll be sure to add it to the opening post as well and try to keep it updated. It's the list of all of the Toku-inspired anime that I know of so far. If the list is missing any, be sure to let me know!
Shows I've seen:
Shows I haven't seen:
Shows I don't plan to cover:
Keep in mind, that last section doesn't mean that I'll never talk about those shows ever, just that if I do, it'll most likely be in just one or two highlight posts like I did with Voltron.

Shows I've seen:
Shows I haven't seen: [LIST][*]Brave Command Dagwon[*]Chojin Barom-1[*]Concrete Revolutio[*]Devilman Crybaby[*]Garo: Vanishing Line[*]Godzilla: Singular Point[*]Japan Sinks[*]Jushin Liger[*]Majin Bone[*]Pacific Rim: The Black[*]Sonic Soldier Borgman[*]Transformers Masterforce[*]The☆Ultraman And after seeing your thoughts on Dynazenon and how you consider yourself a bit of a simpleton, I will warn you about Godzilla: Singular Point, as it has A LOT OF EXPOSITION, usually scientific or hypothetical comparisons. Now I saw Singular Point before it premiered on Netflix, and I'm not entirely sure I understand it as I might think since it was fansubbed, and have been planning to re-watch it on Netflix to see if I'm reading the series right, though I do know Netflix can have some pretty bad subs for some of their shows... * looks at Ultraman and JoJo* Of course, it's entirely up to you, but as I said, after Dynazenon, this one has a lot that will go over your head and mess with your brain, so just a heads up. Pacific Rim: The Black, I thought was good, easily a step up for both Polygon (The Godzilla Trilogy) and Pacific Rim: Uprising (which wasn't that good). It has some good ideas that fit the Pacific Rim world nicely, it isn't trying to be funny at every turn, it has the feel the original had, and the English voices aren't bad, something that most dubs (that I've seen) have a problem with. I really need to watch Ultraman Joneus... |

Thanks for the info! Not sure when I'll ever get to alot of these shows though, since unless there's high demand I tend to just kinda let random.org decide, lol.

And already the list has been updated! A few I've seen, a few I haven't.
First up, ones I might cover:
And as for ones I most likely won't cover:
Of those the ones that I've seen are the two Megaman anime, and if you want a brief rundown of my opinion on those, I felt that the first two seasons of NT Warrior were good, but after that(Stream and onward), the show took a huge nosedive. As for Star Force, the adaptation of the first game was... okay. Not great, but had some shining moments and the dub had really good casting while it lasted. Meanwhile the adaptation of Star Force 2 was pretty bad, although I did like the anime version of Rogue more, surprisingly.
