A Live Action Samurai Flamenco is everything Japan needs now

The first episode made the series seem really dark, like a darker version of Matthew Vaughn's Kick-Ass, Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins, and James Gunn's Super with Tokusatsu: it incorporates elements of the lackluster untrained with the realistic reasons of why would someone become a superhero in this time. After all, why else do it? No one else has yet?
The main character seems to have split personality disorder and seems to be seeing things, as well as has some sort of ignorance of things, convincing himself of certain things that are untrue that truly make him a deep character. There is a lot to it than in typical Toku- no, superhero franchise in general that make this so complicated and interesting.

Heck, all the characters are imperfect:

  • The Hit/Flamenco Girl fights for fun more than justice.
  • Red Axe wants to be famous.
  • Even the cop, thinks he knows everything about society, even though there is crime and a dark underbelly to his world.
