branchandroot: Tsuzuki squeeing (Tsuzuki squee)
This is a cheesy, silly, melodramatic shounen fight show. It features a stoic (and unreasonably tall) hero with vast power. He's also seriously socially maladroit and does things like giving people a (cheesy) thumbs up gesture instead of actually speaking, is terrified of a lot of (perfectly reasonable for a normal guy) things, and rides a dinky little scooter. His knees stick out. Also? His magical-boy transformation armor is really silly looking. Did I mention he turns into a red crystal unicorn when he transforms without assistance? He does.

He is matched with a tiny little girl who believes in him unreasonably and has no super powers of her own except to safely activate his. She sky-dives out of airplanes without a parachute and hits her target dead on, has too much pride to ask for his help because her sister is entombed in crystal, and generally has all the spine and motivation for both of them.

Also, she has a mansion full of wildly competent and not over-endowed commando maids in sensible footgear. There is a sleek-looking butler in command, who is clearly completely gone on the girl and not too fond of the hero (who he is nearly a full head shorter than but twice as seme as, except with the girl).

I am just unreasonably delighted by the whole thing, and I'm only two episodes in.

ETA: Also featuring a shirtless Rival guy whose pants show his hipbones. Just to round things out.
