KITSubs has released the first episode of their new project: Akumaizer-3 (aka those evil dudes from Ultimatum). It's really weird, but there are a lot of crazy ideas in it that I kinda love and some interesting attempts to work around the low budget.

Ooh, I definitely need to check that out!

Gransazer 7.
I like how all the Gransazers' different jobs and such leads to antics in everyday situations, not just "hey let's all go to where the monster is".
That's another thing, there's still not any monsters in this show, just Gransazer versus Gransazer. I like this idea, it's unique(Kamen Rider sorta had this with shows like Ryuki, but there were still kaijin), shame it's destined not to keep up.

I gave up on Gransazer in the end, the mech stuff was rocking and I loved the suit designs, but it has to be one of the lowest quality toku productions I've ever seen. I've seen Youtube fan films that seem to have a higher budget, it really let a show down, that could have been amazing.

I tried to watch the first ep of Bima Satria Garuda. I only got halfway through, it simply didn't grab me.

The show has a nice old school feel to it, so fans of older toku may enjoy it.

I watched the first episode of Akumaizer 3 from KITsubs and it is absolutely fantastic, lots of intrigue and superhero action. Really silly animation but I really enjoyed it, I hope it gets subbed fast.

Just watching the first episode of Armor Hero. 'Old Wang', 'Dong Shan', arf.

Anyway, that was dull. Not even a single proper fight scene in the whole episode! It also felt profoundly cheap, from the acting to the writing to the special effects. Bleh.

Just popped in JOHNNY SAKKO AND HIS FLYING ROBOT from Netflix.

It is a glorious thing.

Well, in that case, I am watching Supernatural as my "Other Toku" series. I've already justified my reasoning for why it's toku.

So I just watched the first episode of Supaidaman and my God it was GLORIOUS! It takes Spider-Man, removes everything about it that is to do with Spider-Man and replaces it all with the drug fuelled insanity that is 70's tokusatsu (this Spider-Man has a giant robot, and one that actually looks better than most sentai robos) while still being totally self aware - especially with the gloriously shitty special effects. I need more of this in my life.

I watched the next episode of Supaidaman. Although it is still very 70s, this episode was actually pretty good. Turning Spider-Man into a space epic with tokusatsu sensibilities.

I love the way they use funky editing, to hide the fact they have no real special effects budget.

Third episode of Supaidaman.

Why would Spider-Man address himself as 'emissary from hell'?

Anyway this episode was terrible, it felt much more like a classic Spider-Man story, but I guess due to budget reasons there was more narration than action.
