Part game setting, part bestiary, part media analysis, all radical. Saved by the Morph is meant to be both a fun bit of media critique washed in nostalgia and a system-agnostic TTRPG sourcebook. Since my chosen outlet for exploring the link between two classic early '90s shows was originally a roleplaying game, this book is written with that in mind. But also, you don't have to play RPGs to enjoy the fun connections and rad monster profiles here.

Saved by the Morph contains the following segments:

- an introduction celebrating the link between two icons of 1990s teen television
- observations on the heart of adaptation - what aspects of a teen sitcom plot make it ripe for morphing into compelling Sentai?
- information on suggested mechanics and a setting (Angel Bay, California) to make your Sentai sitcom sing
- a guide taking you through a 13-episode season of Saved by the Morph, with each entry offering a quick synopsis, a breakdown of key episode conflicts, notes on fun TTRPG opportunities, and of course the MONSTER SPOTLIGHT, including fantastic original Tokusatsu creature art by Brandon Kirkman plus lots of puns

Benjamin ★★★★★

I was skeptical about a bestiary that doubles as media criticism, but the system-agnostic format means I can drop these monsters into any campaign I'm running. The nostalgia hit is real, though—I ended up scribbling campaign notes in the margins instead of reading straight through.

James ★★★☆☆

The idea of blending a TTRPG sourcebook with media critique is interesting, but the system-agnostic approach feels a bit vague for actual gameplay. I appreciate the nostalgia factor, though I wish there were more concrete mechanics provided.
