*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
This was Tsuburaya's 10th anniversary production, and worthy of the title. It featured many elements taken from the Ultra Series, such as the hero having a "time limit" to defeat his enemies. Fireman cannot stay in his Agon form for more than 3 minutes when in sunlight. Another element is the team that accompanies him, the SAF. Formed as a response to the attacks by the monsters, the SAF team features many Ultra-like vehicles but with more realistic, down-to-earth designs. They also have the trademark cool guns that most Science Patrols have. Fireman is from Atlantis and is of the Agon people, beings who cannot stay aboveground for very long. He has many powers and takes on human form in the form of Daisuke Misaki. The series ends on a low note-not gonna spoil it though.
Fireman is more straight-up sci-fi than most toku, and is more adult oriented than most Tsuburaya series, with lots less monster fighting and more focus on drama. Still an exciting series! A must-see!
