Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Oda Nobunaga as villainous homunculus taps into centuries of Japanese pop-culture demonization; he's basically tokusatsu's go-to 'ambitious historical jerk'.
This was the first Movie Wars crossover, establishing the 'three-act' format (W story, OOO story, team-up) that would define the franchise for years.
