* AffectionateParody

to:

* AffectionateParodyAffectionateParody: Of superhero stories, as the Duklyon team does very little to hide their identities and yet the public never suspects who they really are. The villain team is also a ''shopping district'', whose methods are rather petty (taking classes hostage, hijacking the lunch room) despite wanting to TakeOverTheWorld.
