I think this was easily the least impressive episode so far, and partly because of that it's also easily the best. This was just a very standard episode of Sentai in a very good way.
It feels like the show really did slow down a bit now that the pieces are in place and just gave us a nice, simple, character-building story without relying on flash to carry everything.
For one, I still love how the characters all get their little moments to reinforce their personality. Raptor's still a daydreamer, Garu is still quick to stick up for Lucky, Naga constantly making the wrong faces (and by the way for someone who I was expecting to just be "Spock, but not" I love the direction they went with him). Good stuff.
I REALLY like how they started to elaborate on Lucky here, though. Optimism seems to be something of a theme to the series and since Lucky is the mouthpiece for that it was great to see them show why there's merit to his exceptionally simple approach to life. I wasn't totally convinced before, but I think Lucky is actually showing potential to straight up be one of the better Reds out there if they continue to refine his character like this. He's already come a long way from that first episode.
As for the more minor stuff:
- I'm fond of the whole "we don't need a leader!" direction but I can't be as enthusiastic about it as I want to be since ToQger already did that
perfectly
.
- Pega-san is pretty cool. I wasn't dreading his presence or anything but I didn't expect to like him nearly as much as this episode made me.
- Balance's narration for the preview was really funny. The episode can't possibly live up to it.
So, yeah, I think Kyuranger has been on a fairly steady uphill path so far. I really hope the momentum doesn't stop.

It's almost like they had a plan for this stuff or something!
