This... this is FANTASTIC!
This year must be pretty lucky for me in regards to Toku -- Zenkaiger's been ticking every single one of my boxes, Tropical-Rouge has been fun to dive into, Saber... is not my favourite but it's doing some fun things, I've been enjoying going back and watching Showa seasons of Sentai and Rider for the first time in ever... and then THIS show comes along with the mission of just being damn entertaining and succeeding in every way with it.
Like, I have to admit... I was slightly hesitant on getting in on this? I watched SSSS Gridman back when it was airing and I'd struggle to tell you much about it -- not even necessarily any fault of its own, just my tastes and the way I watch stuff has changed so much that I don't think it resonated me as much as it would have today. And then watching the
original
Gridman recently has not been grabbing me at all. So watching even just the first few minutes of Dynazenon here? Where it's all just quiet, mundane,
normal
life, just people being people and doing that in a way that's still engaging? Yeah, that's bringing back so many memories of SSSS Gridman for me and I'm falling in love! Yomogi especially is striking a chord for me, clearly a nice guy at his core but rendered pretty quiet and reserved due to how his life and striving for any form of independence weighs him down. It's the reading I'm getting at least, and it's a really nice, nuanced type of characterisation I don't see a lot.
And then Dynazenon itself is. Uh. AWESOME?? I've rewatched that transformation sequence over and over and it just does not get old; it's sick in the best of ways and really makes me wonder if I should start watching more Mecha shows in general if I'm this into the one time a Toku hero is one. Bit of an interesting contrast to Gridman as well that Dynazenon here isn't an actual character talking to our cast, but I imagine there's a story behind that we'll get to eventually. Maybe? Honestly this show can do what it likes; it's worked well so far!
