Yup, this is the real deal, not the hamfisted american destruction which name is better forgotten forever nor the american equivalent of DC comics (Blue Beetle) that I never particularly cared to begin with, even with me being a DC comics fan. Very good and enjoyable metal heroes series from start to finish which in the second half takes some cues from the preceding Rescue Squad quadrilogy (I'm counting Janperson in the mix) in trying to make the villains more than the typical toku exploding monsters, succeeding more or less in the process while also giving plenty of character development/background to each B-Fighter civilian identity. What is interesting to me as a westerner, even after being used to it by other series like Chojin Sentai Jetman and Space Sheriff Gavan, is the level of blood and simulated physical violence in this as well as the presence of sparse skeletons in what is (and it's not meant as an insult or anything but as an objective fact) a series targeted mainly towards children, stuff that I guess was completely removed by the cultural fraudsters of Saban Entertainment. Cool costumes, cool finishing moves and cool mechas complete the package. Highly recommended.
P. S. Unless you're a team-up fetishist of some sort, avoid the last two episodes with a Blue Swat/Janperson team-up, even if you're a fan of one or both of those series like me (I still have not watched Blue Swat). I did it and I don't regret it in the slightest.
