I saw the animated Gridman short, and they NAILED it! If you're gonna make an animated toku, it NEEDS to be anime and it NEEDS to have style like that! It's the kind of style that is right on up there with Gundam and Transformers, and yet you can still tell. From the use of colors, perspectives, certain split-second shots, etc.; you can tell that this is an animated version of something that is usually live action.

Now if only if DiC would do a Syber Squad animation.

Oh please, no. Just no. American animators just would not get it. They would see nothing more than your average super hero epic rather than something unique, they wouldn't try to capture to charm or the cinematography of the live action source material, and it would just be watered down into every other animated super hero cartoon we have on TV these days.
