Heroman, if you don’t know, was created by Stan Lee and has a good number of American motifs running through the series. However, the show is still pretty Japanesey, in my opinion, and I mean that in a good way. It’s pretty violent and kind of clever. There’s a lot of frivolity that I could do without, but hey, it is a kid show and I’m just glad it’s got truly heroic and tragic characters in it—not just stupid characters like most American shows.
Anyway, on with the caps:
Just a little Americany here:
Red eyes, trench coat—that can mean only one thing! EVIIIL!
For the jaded older sister, she’s become quite a fangirl:
Denton gets dramatic:

Sorry, last one for this post!
One of my favorite things about this show is when Denton speaks English:
EGSACTOLY!
It must sound to me just like I’d sound to a Japanese person when I say “mochidon!”
The character design for the female teacher is kinda crazy, though. I’d NEVER have gotten anything above a D grade in her class because of her double-d’s:
I do love Heroman’s ambiguous looks he gives:
Joey making the call:
Heroman and his hand:
Ah, dichotomies! I love ‘em:
And hey, check it out—this shot is in the end titles and is essentially, just south of my old neighborhood in LA. That’s the LA Federal Building to the upper right—where my local post office was:
It’s a little surreal seeing stuff in anime based on my old home town—but cool :)
