Metal Hero series I've finished

Wasn't on Liveman tier for an 80's toku but it had it's strong points

Kenji Ohba carries an entire show on his shoulders with his charisma and stuns, alongside a charming suporting cast and a touching finale

Very creative show despite the reduced budget and very likeable cast overall, ninjas are really the old reliable for Toei's tokusatsu

Quite the standout episodes, more Winspector basically

Most episodic show so far, with almost non inhuman threats, which mean the criminals of the week had to use subterfuge or very specific ways to stay ahead of the heroes. Live action J-Decker vibes as far as that show's more grounded cases

Fever dream of a show and glad they got a lead that came close to Ohba's charisma and more scifi elements

Kobayashi probably hate watched this show

Entertaining cast but later reveals soured my experience, not helped that the villains felt like a downgrade from Metalder and Jiraiya

Sun Vulcan of Metal Hero

Kiiiiinda too much reliance on LORE but better than Sharivan

Ever wanted to see Gavan without Gavan, Sharivan is definetly the former show without the fun
