Review of SSSS.Gridman

Perhaps I should have watched the orginal before this. The neon genesis quotes were what I enjoyed most about this show and reminded me that I could have been watching that instead. I'm not a big Mecca fan but thought I'd try one again after many years and I picked this one. You can tell where they took inspiration from neon genesis for certain scenes and that's about the hight of it. There is very little explanation of the world gridman and co come from and why they are fighting the. . . Aliens? Some of the fight scenes are great and that iswhere the show shines most. Story, characters and everything else is very bog standard and not very memorable. It got a bit more interesting towards the end but not enough to make it a good show.

Watch neon genesis instead or code geass of you want decent Mecca and good characters

5/10 final score.
