Review of SSSS.Gridman

Well, it isn't Kill la Kill, that's for sure. I watched this because it was a short series, mecha and from Trigger, knowing nothing about the source material of Gridman. This isn't the worst anime in the world by far, it's barely watchable. What it does do decently is it's fanservice mecha stuff. It has an interesting dynamic between the main chars, which pushed me to finish it. In the end, a very forgettable anime, but I ended up watching SSSS Dynazenon as well, so I guess there is some charm to its themes and animation. Animation 7/10 - The standardanimation is rather basic, but the mecha, fight scenes etc are better.
Sound 7/10
- Decent sound design with the mechs, decent OP/ED.
Story 4/10
- Basic, not unexpected for the kind of series it is.
Characters 5/10
- Mostly bland characters, but there is some interesting development with Akane.
Enjoyment 5/10
- Barely watchable, but I didn't drop it, so there is that.

I can't recommend this to anyone regardless of your interests in mecha or not. This series just doesn't offer enough.
