Sakurazaki Suzuo has recently returned to his hometown of Nakasora City, eager for a part-time job; yet none can be found.

Save the universe with your suit of strength!
Both Heroman and Dokkoida?! are about superheroes, aliens, and shounen fighting action. They both feel a lot more like American cartoons, then Japanese anime in style and execution. Dokkoida?! is more of a comedy and Heroman takes itself a little more seriously, but I think if you like one there's a good chance you will enjoy the other.
