As of the writing of this review Ive sat down to watch this show twice once while down with a fever and the other time with someone who had no idea what they were getting into. I can still look back at the show fondly for how amazing the viewing experience was. Its a show that constantly makes you thinking Theres no way they can top this in absurdity. This has to be the peak of this roller coaster ride right? Yet each and every time it shatters that thought into a million pieces as it draws another card from their ideas hat and slap it down onto their madlib creation that goes for the plot. Characters Both the main characters of Goto and Masayoshi are enjoyable in their own ways and play well off each other. Side characters range from entertaining to mildly annoying even the villains get some character that makes them enjoyable to watch. The bromance between Goto and Masayoshi is top tier even if the director tries to deny it. Story Cant say much about the story as half the fun of the show is the journey that goes increasingly strange the farther you get into it. Starts off as just a dude wanting to be like those super heroes from super sentai shows or kamen rider. What I will say for those that might find it slow in the beginning is to at least try getting to episode 7 before calling it quits. If after watching that till the episode till end you still arent hooked then the rest of the show isnt for you. Not everything may make sense and when it ramps up the story can move forward at break neck speeds. Animation Honestly it isnt the best and can get noticeably bad farther into the series. Its not bad enough that it ruined the series for me and in some cases it added to my enjoyment probably for the wrong reasons. Sound Nothing about it really stood out to me personally overall Id say it was okay. Conclusion Some of the most fun Ive had in recent years marathoning through a series and the fact that you really cant predict where the show is going adds to the experience. Might not be the show for you if you try to overthink things or cant enjoy shows that go off the rails. The ending is also a 10/10 that wrapped up the show perfectly. Overall the show might not be for everyone and some might think its just stupid but I at least hope a few more people may be able to experience the beauty that is samurai flamenco considered by some as the swan song of manglobe.
