Finally finished watching Uchuu Keiji Sharivan. It continues the exact same formula set in last third of Uchuu Keiji Gavan, with better FX (in the fisrt 2/3 of Gavan they were testing stuff: sometimes the MOTW went giant, sometimes the soundtracks felt out of context, the laser blade became a neon, etc.).

It's a very formulaic show, but it's got a nice arc covering 8~10 episodes dispatched here and there about Den origins and the Iga crystal.

On some occasions, regulars from Gavan are special guests, which is nice, except from Kojiro who is still a regular for comedic purpose, which is...often creepy, as he's a 35~40 old single dude spending most of his time hanging out with the kids of Den's boss. The final episode is really badass as Gavan come to give a hand to Sharivan. It works very well, I think they should have spent more episodes working as a duo.

As opposed to the end of Gavan where Sharivan was introduced as Gavan replacement, there is no introduction of Shaider in the end. Den leave the Earth to go revive the Iga planet with the Iga crystal, bringing with him the Iga descendants - some commandos and a harem of battling high school girls - leaving Lili alone on Earth. Jerkass.
