I only just recently learned about this manga series and it looked totally up my alley. Looking forward to the adaptation, now.

One of the best modern protagonists looking great out here, you love to see it. Also Hisui, Angel, and Yumeko. CGI Rangers are an interesting choice; it bears out in the PV at least so I hope that that carries through to the anime. I'm excited for this one!

Where do we complain about the localized title Go Go Loser Ranger honestly being a bad tonal fit for the series?

Ranger Reject is definitely a better title.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. The official English title makes it sound like a wacky parody, which it is not.

The actual title would best translate to something like "Rejected Ranger" or "Ranger Reject" which both sound better.

As I was going through the shounen magazine wikipedia article to see what manga they're serialising which might also get confirmed for an anime adaption, I noticed if you sort the list of ongoing serialisations by ascending, literally all the manga up to go go loser ranger have an adaption which has already released or is upcoming. (Ignoring Bakemonogatari which doesn't really count). Some of them were pretty prompt in the grand scheme of things too.

That title in France references the same novel that the original manga's original title references: Osamu Dazai's literary classic No Longer Human (Ningen Shikkaku).

OMG! 11 seconds in and already a great character design caught my attention automatically making me want to watch this. Then the creator used that character in the visual.

Since Sato is directing this, it can be assumed Ike will do the music. Of course, it could be someone else, but Ike and Sato go back since Karas and Ike always does the music of the series Sato directs. I have to expect Ike.

I've never heard of this series so that was definitely my first impression. When I saw who wrote it my first thought was that it was another "Life after World Domination" type parody. If it weren't for the comments I would have gone into this show completely unaware. Even the description doesn't necessarily make it sound serious and makes no mention of an outcast.

Well, it's not that serious, it's still pretty funny, what with spoiler[mostly immortal MC that can survive some cartoonish deaths], but it's not really the same as Life after World Domination, though it's not really that much different. It is more serious with some deaths, but it's still not a drama, though it has some drama in it.
Generally, it's pretty great, you can read first few chapters to see if it's something in your style.
