What We Think

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor sticks closely to its sci-fi/action roots, focusing on classic themes like responsibility, friendship, and sacrifice. Character traits and casting are dictated by the original manga, not identity politics. There's minimal emphasis on ideology over story, and any diversity present is organic to the narrative.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show largely leaves religious or cultural themes alone and doesn’t undermine traditional values. Masculinity and family are present as plot drivers, and there is no overt attempt to subvert gender roles or modernize classic elements. The story’s focus is much more on heroism and conflict than on challenging societal norms.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Guyver doesn’t appear interested in lecturing the audience or presenting only one worldview. Villains are clearly evil for narrative reasons, not because they represent a traditional alternative. No one is singled out for holding unfashionable opinions, and there’s no ideological litmus test.
