I like the character design. That male character doesn't look like a wimp or a simple-minded idealist, and is posing somewhat confidently. Certainly, we'll have to see if Enokido can give him an engaging personality... I'm personally relieved to hear that Enokido wasn't a writer for Heroman.
Recently I was reading Guyver, and while reading it recalled my like of Reideen 2006... In the wake of a show with perhaps similar plot elements (Heroman), I also hope that BONES is in the mood to refine their storytelling such that they will do this new series justice along the lines of those series.
Though I guess it's not an alien-fighting story like those, it's more of a mecha anime...
