SSSS.GRIDMAN
TV · Finished · Fall 2018 · 12 episodes · 25 min
Collaboration with Tsuburaya Productions.
Yuta Hibiki awakens with amnesia and the ability see things that others cannot. He first encounters a Gridman in the reflection of his friend Rikka Takarada's computer and it tells him to "Remember his calling," but Yuta doesn't understand what this means. Later, in the distance, he sees an extremely large monster but it doesn't move. It's only when Yuta gets to school that the two sightings make sense: a monster attacks and the hero Yuta saw in the computer screen pulls him within the computer and transforms Yuta into a giant hero named Gridman.

Reviews
A colorful Monster of the Week adventure that allowed itself to snap the format in half.
An anti-escapist fable about self-worth and purpose in the face of empty, bland mundanity.
A decently written show, with a few flaws, but one story that is forgotten but can be revived.
