Just got the Zyuranger box set today and already watched the first disc. This series is awesome, and its actually awesome to see all the backgrounds and fight scenes from MMPR with the proper setting and context. Also the pacing is so much better, no rushing into full on Megazord. I mean heck I finished the first 5 episodes and its just about to show the combined zords for the first time. Anyone on the fence on getting this box set or not I fully recommend it.

Continued watching Maskman after nearly a year of taking a break from it. I really enjoyed the last five episodes I saw. The three part Galaxy Robo arc was very well done and they took their time to properly introduce it and not just throw it into an episode and call it a day. The episode with Akiras martial arts tournament was also great. It has spectacular fight scenes and the plot of the episode was really heartwarming. The character still feel a bit samey to me and I cant really tell what their personalities are in detail but it sure gets better. They are not as fundamentally boring as they were the first 18 episodes.
The villains are still a bit lame though. |

Took a break from Jetman because I couldn't find the next episode anywhere. Finally DDL'd it from the site in the fansubs topic.
I think i'm gonna try Dairanger again after I finish Jetman. As for the discussion a few pages back, my first Sentai was Zyuranger, and I really don't see anything topping it. The combination of nostalgia rush and introducing me to the world of Sentai gives it a special place in my heart (lame, I know), but there are a few aspects of it that I like, but haven't found in other Sentai. For example: 1. Takes its time setting things up. Opens with a two-parter, goes into a two-parter where they get weapons, and then the two-parter with the sphinx to get DaiZyuJin. 2. Could just be nostalgia talking, but I much prefer how they combine the legendary weapons into a big cannon, instead of having a pre-made big cannon that they pull out of nowhere to beat enemies 3. I liked the "warriors from the past" aspect a lot, but haven't been as big of a fan of "random teenagers get powers through technology" setup that the vast majority of Sentai seems to have (which, I understand that's the main setup for Sentai and Zyuranger was a bit different in that regard) 4. I like how the monsters are all made out of clay, it gives them a nice "origin." Lots of Sentai just seem to have the monsters come out of nowhere, especially the cannon fodder enemies, so it's really cool to see a series where they have an explanation. Related to this, I like how Bandora throws her scepter thing to make the monsters grow. It makes sense for why they get bigger, as opposed to, say, Kakuranger, where they just randomly get bigger for no apparent reason. 5. It seemed like it had better world-building, as opposed to other Sentai i've seen where they gathered some people and gave them powers to fight an evil organization, but didn't really do much beyond that. Jetman has come pretty close to taking over my top spot, but not quite. Then again, i'm not even halfway through Jetman, so who knows. The only other sentai i've seen more than 10 episodes of is Megaranger, which I found to be rather uninteresting. Kakuranger I think I saw 9, which I also found a bit boring. Battle Fever J I surprisingly really liked the 6 or 7 episodes I saw, but not enough to compete for my top spot.

I've been really enjoying the past few episodes of Jetman, even more than before I took a couple month break from the series. Jetto Jetto Jettoman! Just watched the fortune teller episode.

just finished watching akibaranger season 2
aaand its a lazy scripted piece of crap& a downgrade they removed a load of potential characters that was from season 1 and they focused less on the sentai's and more on the otaku's culture i was looking foreword to something interesting to happened >_< like Takuma Tsuzuki might be back as an anti hero or 4th sentai member or even a leader of a 5 new sentai team that Toei hired to replace&rival the Akibaranger or a romance comedy between Akagi trying to win back that girl he has a crush on"forgot her name >_>" because she seem to be getting along with Tsuzuki etc i know its unofficial but still i can see the potential and way's they can get profits out of it.
