Really SRS Business: A Solbrain Review
Sequels are a tricky thing. You're often faced with some lofty expectations and new challenges at following up a previous story with something that's both new and refreshing while also not alienating everyone who you brought on board for that first work. If you play it too safe, you'll bore everyone, but if you go too wild then you risk completely isolating your audience. It's a tough tightrope to walk on, and Toei was faced with that challenge in 1991 when following up on the success of Special Rescue Police Winspector . The result was a show that tried to amp up the budget and details and special effects thrills of the previous show while injecting a heavier dose of procedural drama and emotional conflicts into its storytelling. A show that was focused on heroes don't just save lives, but save souls as well. That show is Super Rescue Solbrain , and it's a prime example of just how tricky that sequel dilemma can be.
