This new team of warriors, dawning power suits are entrusted to protect a girl, who is destined to save the world. This team is very reminiscent of Power Rangers, if everyone had an Iron Man suit that is.

The show has not shied away from showing these off in the new PV.

The official website for Shikizakura anime has released a new promotional video. The upcoming original anime series is set to debut in October 2021.

The PV begins with Kakeru and Kaede, the main characters discussing something with the other member of the power suit team that Kakeru is part of. We then get to see different power suits in action against Oni. 

It seems that different colored power suits feature different powers and weapons. From swords, machine guns, and straight-up cannons, some of them are also capable of flying and shooting homing missiles, Iron Man style.

This anime seems to be using the new generation of 2Dish CG which looks way better than its older counterparts.

Although the fight scenes look really good, the characters outside of their power suits do not look amazing in this new technique.
