It's definitely an aspect of the show that I feel will make or break alot of people. Personally, I absolutely love the combination, and to me it only serves to further highlight the toku aspects. Let's not forget that Gaim is about breakdancing fruit samurai.

Also, this thread REALLY got me into the mood to check out more toku anime, so I started watching SSSS Gridman on a whim once I noticed it's on Netflix. It's based on the cyber superhero show Denkou Chojin Gridman (which I recognize through its American adaptation, Super Samuray Syber Squad), and the first episode was very solid with some distinct visual flair and direction. Really looking forward to watch more of that as well.
SSSS.Gridman is an absolutely fantastic show. Even coming from someone who's only seen Syber-Squad, they did a great job having alot of callbacks while still doing their own thing. Definitely a show I wanna cover in the future.
