戦隊大失格 [Sentai Daishikkaku]

From 2021 onward, this ongoing Kōdansha series reimagines the superhero team genre with a twist: a lowly foot soldier in a villainous army grows tired of losing to the heroic Sentai and decides to infiltrate their ranks from within. Written and illustrated by Negi Haruba, the series explores themes of identity, rebellion, and the cost of performative heroism. Its sharp deconstruction of tokusatsu tropes has made it a standout in modern manga, blending action with psychological depth.
