Sukeban Deka
Despite a strong premiere and an ambitious length of 42 episodes scheduled in advance, "Sukeban Deka III" rapidly lost its momentum and didn't do well. During its airing the first feature movie of the franchise was released, "Sukeban Deka The Movie", which acted as a crossover between "II" and "III" (it also starred Ayako Kobayashi, the winner of a national audition grand prix), but it didn't help the franchise to recover its success. "Ninja Girl Romance" had its last episode in October 1987, and it was only followed by the feature film "", which featured the characters in a more traditional plot and gave conclusion to their series.
