It was actually their choice. If I remember right, the director wanted to make an Ultraman anime, but since there were plans in play for an anime already, Tsuburaya told him no, but they offered Gridman or... Jumborg, I think, as a consolation prize.

And Akira Amemiya? Big Gridman fan. Even did a short for the animator expo Anno set up. Thus, this.

Edit: Also, there's a subplot completely in the background of this episode of Akko from LWA starting to get together with one of the guys from the class.

The main characters were super confused about whole gridman thing for the first few episodes and were wanting figure things out and then the rest of the alliance showed up and then...nothing really so far. Like they were told off screen or something.

One of the things that made me love Gridman was that the show tended to answer questions the episode after people started seriously asking questions.

Including questions about what questions the characters have been asking.

I'm gonna be honest, I was pretty blah on Fire Force season 1 but season 2 is some pretty fun poo poo

Yeah, this was my same reaction as I watched them both subbed, s2 is just more engaging, especially once the cast goes to China.

It should be happening sometime this year. As I understand, the arc it adapts is pretty standalone, so there shouldn't be too much of an issue.

The train arc is actually super important to everything that happens after.

It's hard for me to imagine them not turning the train arc into the first 6 episodes of a 13-episode cour

I mean, a lot of the labor's already done, why not

I'd be perfectly fine with them just leaving it as a canon movie. I wish more shows would do that, so the pacing doesn't get completely hosed in the transition. Looking at you, DB Super.
