More importantly, will we get a Stan Lee cameo?

I'm kinda impressed by some of the staff. The Mushishi director was one of the original creators and is directing it and Umakoshi is adapting the character designs for animation (hopefully more than that!)? Sign me up! Well I was probably going to watch anyway but still!

A Wheelchair transforming into a giant robot is quite possibly one of the best superpowers I've heard of in a good while. I like the designs a lot and the comic book kinda shading could be fun, I'll be looking forward to this one.

This is what I like to see, this is type of stuff I want to get into. An ambitious show made by a talented and creative staff. Hopefully this'll be entertaining. Very Happy I'm genuinely looking forward to this show and I hope it gets very good reception.

All of a sudden, this became very, very interesting.

I was skeptic at first because of how Heroman turned out. But this one might just turn out to be good.

Reminds me a little bit of Gundam Doozy Bots.

Stan had nothing to do with the show, or nearly anything he lend his name to in nearly 2 decades. Read up on Stan Lee Media to see what i mean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_Lee_Media

The protagonist also looks identical to the current anti-villain version of Cyclops (who is dead btw.)

Who is ready for this to become a big hit like Heroman was!?

It's a shame that didn't work out, but at least Stan is still willing to lend more ideas.

It's a bigger shame Heroman never got a dub. I imagine it might have attracted some attention.

Xon just totally ripped off Cyclops.

Anyway, it's kinda cool to see Japan getting in on the superhero craze because as a longtime superhero fan, it's cool to have stuff like My Hero Academia and One Punch Man as well.

Just as long as they stick to their own stuff. Bleh, those Marvel anime were awful.

Studio DEEN? I thought people hate that studio because of Fate/Stay Night and KonoSuba?

@Hikarunu Not everyone hates their adaptation of Konosuba, and they also were responsible for the widely respected Rakugo. Though ultimately given how freelance the industry is, one really ought to focus on the staff and not the studio per se.
