If the show was just the Lupins it would be okay, but it is not just the Lupins, the pats where promoted as just as important as the Lupins and it was supposed to be two teams competing and ending up working together.
It really did not.......
The show ended up being fully focused on the Lupins and the Pats just being thrown under the bus by the people making the show and from what we have heard it was due to how badly the toys ended up selling, and because the Lupin toys sold more they decided to just cut the Pats out of importance and switched to secondary characters with jab after jab thrown at them.
And that is not mentioning the power ups and mechs.
That to me sours the overall experience, the first episodes up to their first giant combination where fun and enjoyable, after that the Pats got demoted as main characters and treated like crap by everyone including X who constantly backstabs them, lies to them etc. Even though they constantly stand beside him and trust him, over and over and over.
It just keeps going.
I find it hard to root for the Lupins due to this, and they where the team I liked the most from the start.
Look we all know this season was not bad overall, the action and stunt work during this run has been fantastic and deserves praise, the suits are great as well. But it sold horribly and that likely in turn changed the entire planned story, it was no longer two teams as protagonists, it was one team with another constantly being shit on by the show itself.
That ruined the show for me overall, and it has not been a bad run, I just feel very bad by how the second set of protagonists got treated like dirt in the long run to the point they where not even protagonists anymore.
The previous sentai was overall disliked by most people here, and overall I found it problematic as well but at least I can say the characters felt treated well even with such a large cast, even with all the cliches and tropes being used I can at least say I loved the overall team, with this run though I ended up disliking the team due to how the other team was treated by them and the show overall.
