Oh, most definitely. And don't get me wrong, I really like Gridman's cast.

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.

I 1000% agree. As much as I enjoyed Dynazenon's cast, it wasn't until after the season ended and I was thinking back on it and thought, the others could have had some more focus. And while in a way, I do think the buildup for Yomogi and Yume's relationship is something I can see and in some cases, better than Yuta and Rikka's, in how the former feels like how I imagine a relationship is formed, whereas the latter is set up as a childhood friends scenario with the amnesia plot to help build it. And I'm not be into shipping or anything like that, nor have I been in any relationships, being a recluse, and it wasn't bad or anything, but I would have liked to see more from the others.

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!

I understand it's a new studio(?) working on an original Anime, which I've known about this for a while, even mentioning it in the Thread. I probably will bring in some thoughts, as I feel this could be one of those How Not To Do Toku-Inspired Anime With CG For Everything But The Background Characters.

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.
