This is an odd episode of Den-O! I remember watching it after the movie the first time and not even totally comprehending it was supposed to be like, a prologue, at first? Because that whole concept was just so weird to me when the show had already devoted so much time to setting up the movie, and if I'm being honest, I believe on principle that the TV show should stand entirely on its own to begin with.

It's also so nuts I loved it on a rewatch, and kinda don't care about any of that anymore? Like, any episode where Deneb wears a watermelon as a hat is going to create that goodwill you mentioned. It's a fun episode, even if it's just a fun episode.
