Review of SSSS.Gridman

[includes spoilers] SSSS.Gridman is hard to nail down. It's an atmospheric mecha mystery show that also follows monster-of-the-week formula. While the mystery elements are weak, the characters and their interactions are complete blunders. The show is heavily focused on studying and developing the complex relationship between the heroes and the main antagonist, who are friends but also enemies. 2/3 way into the show it is revealed that the antagonist is actually a god, and that the main cast only likes her because she built the world and made everyone like her. ...what? This plot point completely undermines anything that was even remotely interesting about these characters' relationships andAkane herself. Oh, and later on it is also revealed that Yuuta, who was supposed to suffer from amnesia, is actually not Yuuta but Gridman, who is in no way related to Yuuta's friends, Rikka and Shou.

Way to go Trigger! You just undid all the character development in the series, as the supporting cast has absolutely no depth. What was the point of the series again?
