Watched Kanpai Senshi After V. Well, the impressions are quite mixed. I'll try to sort them out point by point:
- The concept was stretched out into 12 almost twenty five-minute episodes, which is more suitable for a five-minute sketch.
- A complete lack of action, even the absurdly conventional one shown in the openingю
- The most basic elements of Super Sentai are parodied, which even those who don't know the term know. So that the experienced tokusatsu viewer will yawn and constantly catch himself thinking: "I've heard this before... a hundred times."
- The humor itself is specific and will not appeal to everyone. Perhaps, to make it funnier, you need to get drunk with the characters.
- And to top it off, the jokes are repeated over and over again. I know that's a trope, but it's clearly overused here.
+ The characters turned out to be quite bright and they even have development, both individual and team.
+ The music in the show is excellent and even the uninteresting visuals are worth it.
+ Compared to Akibarenger, Kanpai Senshi is much more suitable for tokusatsu newbies. As I wrote above, even those who have never watched Super Sentai will understand the meaning of this show.
+The plot, while horribly drawn out, was surprisingly engaging. The Ranger swap trope was played out beautifully.
+ And the relationship between the Commander and the Combatant is so good that it deserves a separate point. It is because of them that I do not regret watching this show. Honestly, I would be very happy to see something like this as a C-plot in a real Super Sentai.
To sum it up, as I said, my impressions are controversial. I won't recommend it, and I won't discourage you either. I'll just say that the three-episode rule doesn't work with this show, and the ending is touching in its own way.
