Line 2: [[File:shinemen.jpg\|frame]] Aliens have invaded Earth. The [[Evil Overlord\|King]] of [[The Empire\|Planet Voice]] has sent his son, [[Overlord, Jr.\|Prince Sasaki]], and his [[Evil Genius\|chief tactician]], [[The Strategist\|Seki]], to Earth, [[The Masquerade\|disguised]] as an [[Corrupt Corporate Executive\|ordinary Japanese businessman]], with the intent of turning [[Mega Corp]] Science Electronics into a power strong enough to [[Take Over the World]]. Fortunately, they are opposed in this goal by a [[Law Enforcement, Inc.\|secret department of the Right Trading Company]] - the Special Duty Combat Unit [[Sentai\|Shinesman]]! The series chronicles the adventures of young [[Salaryman]] Hiroya Matsumoto, [[The Hero\|Shinesman Red]], and his co-workers, who form a [[Five -Man Band]]. They fight the aliens of Planet Voice with [[Improbable Weapon User\|highly impractical weapons]] and the support of the Right Trading Company's Human Resources Department. [[Shinesman]] is an [[Affectionate Parody]] of the [[Sentai]] genre, originally created as a manga by Kaimu Tachibana, and then adapted as an OVA by Production I.G, which ran for [[Too Good to Last\|precisely two episodes]]. A [[Woolseyism\|very high-quality English dub]] was released by Media Blasters, under their Anime Works label. ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== This series contains examples of: ===~~ * [[Accidental Marriage]]: Matsumoto accidentally saw Princess Shina's bare skin, which according to the law of Planet Voice, means she has to either kill him or marry him. In the manga, where Shina does not exist, the same thing happens - except with ''[[Foe Yay\|Sasaki]]''. Line 19: ** "[[Crowning Moment of Funny\|Your colors]] ''[[Crowning Moment of Funny\|SUCK!]]''" * [[Cool Car]]: Yamadera's Montage * [[Corporate -Sponsored Superhero]]: A corporate sponsored ''sentai team''. * [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: Seki and Sasaki's cover identities * [[Dating Catwoman]]: Matsumoto and Princess Shina * [[The Danza]]: The ''entire cast'' in the Japanese version. It's deliberate; all of the characters' surnames were borrowed from notable voice actors at the time the manga was written, and the corresponding actors voiced the characters for the OVA. In other words, in a clever ploy on the author's part, she picked out voice actors for the characters in advance. * [[The Ditz]]: Princess Shina * [[Earth Is the Center of ~~The~~the Universe]] ** [[Tokyo Is the Center of ~~The~~the Universe]] * [[The Empire]] * [[Evil Overlord]] * [[Five -Man Band]] [[The Hero]]: Hiroya Matsumoto/Shinesman Red [[The Lancer]]: Ryoichi Hayami/Shinesman Moss Green Line 41: ** Times like these I wish I had a shotgun. * [[Lampshade Hanging]]: A good portion of the English dub's humor. * [[Living ~~With~~with the Villain]]: Right Trading does not know about Seki and Sasaki's disguises, and Seki and Sasaki do not know the Shinesmen's [[Secret Identity\|secret identities]]. Matsumoto, Hayami, Sasaki, and Seki sign business deals with each other frequently. * [[Mega Corp]]: Both Science Electronics and the Right Trading Company * [[Office Lady]]: Hidaka Line 57: * [[Show Within a Show]]: ''Greatmen'', a more traditional [[Sentai]] show. * [[Stock Footage]]: Parodied, of course. * [[Theme Naming]]: See [[Hey, ~~Its~~It's That Voice!]] * [[Twin Threesome Fantasy]] * [[Unwanted Harem]]: Hidaka is the ''only'' named female character that has no sexual tension with Matsumoto. * [[Voice ~~With~~with an Internet Connection]] * [[What Do You Mean ~~Its~~It's Not Awesome?]]: [[The Hero\|Matsumoto]] [[Crazy Awesome\|flashing his business card in the second OVA]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnp6KuUtKVQ (probably the greatest business card flashing ever made).] {{reflist}} Line 68: [[Category:Manga]] [[Category:Special Duty Combat Unit Shinesman]] [[Category:Parody]]
