Real athletes playing it completely straight while a superhero comedy spirals around them, that collision of awkward sincerity creates a charm that only works in this exact moment, with these exact people. The second time around, the joke isn't new, so what carries it is the commitment: actual Kawasaki Frontale players showing up to do absurdity bit work again, treating it like it matters. That's the whole thing right there.

Kawasaki Frontale and Tentai Senshi Sunred join forces for a second time in this single-episode comedy special from 2010. The first collaboration paired the Sunred franchise with the J. League football club, and members of the team appeared on screen and supplied their own voices. This follow-up reunites the club and the Sunred cast for another crossover that mixes sports with comedy.
