@Fabris I am not a specialist in the genre, so I can be wrong. But in my eyes, this is rather an attempt to deconstruct villains in the genre and study why they constantly lose despite stable attempts. That is, this is something like Villainess Otome Isekai for Tokusatsu.

@RobertBobert I will never understand why this manga triggered japanese tokufans 2 much, aint this fundamentally Madoka/Princess Tutu for Tokus? Or The Boys for Tokus?



Are Tokusatsu fans this much more fragile than mahou shoujo fans, and capeslop fans? Bizarre...

@KimgeaR I did not read the original manga, but I heard that in Japan it is perceived too seriously as the deconstruction of the genre and therefore in its homeland it has a much more controversial reputation because of the Tokusatsu superfans.

@RobertBobert Okay, I get your points.
I don’t like 5-toubun, but I’m kinda interested in what Haruba’s doing with Sentai Daishikkaku. Trying to write a story with completely different genres/themes from his previous work is what I would not expect.

@KimgeaR In both cases, the authors of very popular romantic comedies moved to very cruel edgy stories about revenge, which are a dark look at previously light genres. Actually, I already wrote about this above.

@RobertBobert
But one way or another, it is very difficult to refrain from comparing this manga with Oshi No Ko. For various reasons. Now some kind of trend of jumping from overhype romantic comedies to very dark and hopeless stories?

I don’t understand this comparison. Could you elaborate?

Considering that even the Japanese consider this manga too cruel and cynical processing of the genre, I am interested in what a chance that it ends with a really gloomy ending. But one way or another, it is very difficult to refrain from comparing this manga with Oshi No Ko. For various reasons. Now some kind of trend of jumping from overhype romantic comedies to very dark and hopeless stories?
