| The Marginal Service's next alien raid: the showbiz idol Rubber Suit. The reason: the crystal ET Skull, which some intel suspects that he might have it due to his interest in the occult. With that, the team works day and night undercover to understand who he is and imitate his details, all culminating towards Brian's way as the main contact, to infiltrate at an auction. Mission start, and the Marginal Service work like clockwork, with a few stumbles along the way. Despite Robin and Bolts having their usual bickering of music and proteins, the East Dakota native got away thanks to Peck being a bulletproof vest, and the artifact is found within a regular drinking glass...to have Robin, Bolts, Lyra and Kuga act as a Power Rangers alt to distract Rubber Suit and retrieve the actual artifact. One Borderlander down, but a body double human lookalike, and the real person is still on the loose. Just the start, and who knows what shenanigans will face forward. |

| This show goes out of its way to reference Western Pop Culture and I love pointing them out. The most notable ones were ET and the whole Mission Impossible vibe in finding the the crystal skull in Rubber Suit's mansion. It took me a while to buy into the show's premise and now I'm starting to get the hang of what its trying to do. I think the Japanese voice actors are having way too much fun with this one especially when the characters were going asking what kind of music they like. It was hilarious. The soundtrack is pretty good too. |

| Lol this show really just feels like an opportunity to show off knowledge of western pop culture . Just so silly and nonsensical |

| Deep dark fantasies |
| They just keep dropping random movie references lol Still no word of why this fictitious drug made of a real drug that's relatively harmless for most people is supposed to be so bad....it's like watching Reefer Madness the anime. Apparently they dont understand punk culture either and instead the guy threw up horns like a metal or hard rock fan would when he went on how he likes punk rock. Lol Is this show secretly a parody of old American action cartoons? |

| this is such a dumpster fire. vaguely entertaining only when im not thinking about what it has to say about race relations lmfao |
White guy: "Wouldn't you say, brother?" Black guy: "Do you think I like rap?" small beat Black guy: "You're absolutely right, yo!" Brian: "So? What kind of music do you like?" Zeno: "The kind that's silent." The security wanting to scan their crotches. I'm really glad I stuck with this show. The story is meh, but the characters are hilarious. I feel like this show would be better if it was a SoL show in an office setting. Just keep the focus on the characters interacting with each other and getting into shenanigans. Keep the guns and missiles if you need to. That said, the spy stuff was pretty cool here. And I liked the security guard lady. When I came into this show, I expected to see hot naked men. I didn't expect to come out with a hot waifu instead. One thing I liked is how they insert so much flavor into the characters. Even their "dancing" is fun. The girl seems to be dancing just fine, but she's the most reserved. The British guy is overly exaggerated and drawing attention. The emo guy is doing the monkey and isn't following the beat. Bolts isn't even dancing, he's just flexing his muscles. |

| Episode felt like a Lupin plot. |
| REJECT ANIMU - EMBRACE TOKU |
| Body double huh And lol what was that dance Also "do you think I like rap?" "You are absolutely right" lmao |
 |
| At first I was like, "how tf is this big entertainer / singer entertained by whatever dance performance" the Marginal crew did but he being a body double twist does make sense |
| Very rare. Harpy lady used logic in anime... why fist fight when you can use a gun. |
