If you saw the title of this post, you know that my most hyped series for this season is Gridman! I remember watching the Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad on TV as a teen and enjoyed the cheesy moments since it tried to emulate the success of Power Rangers. Years later, I did watch the original series, Gridman and it may not be successful as his Ultraman counterpart (Same production) but it has since gained a cult following especially the release of the blu-ray series in Japan.
Seeing that it is more of a reboot of Gridman, I don't mind it as Gridman is more relevant now especially in the current IT world we are living in. It is also interesting to see Tokusatsu other than Garo to take a shot in anime. From the trailer, it looked fine and yes, I am also anticipating the upcoming Ultraman Manga that is going to be aired next year.
If you have been following my blog for some years, you know that one of my earliest posting was the Senran Kagura series and I was hoping for a sequel since the conclusion ended with Homaru and her team becoming runaway shinobi and Asuka hoping for their return. This new series will also introduce the other two new factions that is led by Yumi and her Gessen Ninja team and the newly reformed Hebi Ninja team led by Miyabi.
Golden Kamuy, Index and Phoenix Wright are also shows that I am looking forward. With that, see you in October for the new series!
