Featured review
Comic book material taking form of a live-action series
Hence, don't expect some sort of realism in this first outing of the Sukeban Deka series because you won't find it. What you will find here is the adaptation of a mixture of shoujo and shonen with a toppling of 70's exploitation movies resulting in something resembling, in parts, the 2004 cutie honey live action series, Oniisama E...and the Female Prisoner Scorpio series of movies, made by the same company that made this series of all things. Oh yeah, it's also a vehicle to sell you the idol Yuki Saito and her music (the ED is from hers), who is not exactly Ayako Wakao material when it comes to acting but she gets the job done considering this was not meant to be Bamboo Dolls of Ezichen or Ball at the Anjou House stuff from the get go and her actual music, if you can listen to her albums (which I urge you to do), is pretty good stuff. Just be aware that the last quarter of this series is not great to be generous.
P. S. The song Crazy Nights by Metal Veterans Loudness in episode 15 was a nice bonus too, just to reiterate my opinion that J-Pop and Metal indeed are treated as the same thing in Japan, which is great.
