Decided to not watch anymore Liveman. I might try again after Dairanger. For now, I really want to finish Dairanger. A friend had told me HON & H-S did a complete sub of Dairanger so I gave them a shot (besides, I was wanting a second opinion anyways).
So yeah, I just finished Dairanger 26. I'm glad the show finally remembered there was other characters than Kou. Not that those episodes were bad, just that I feel there's been uneven character focus throughout. Maybe I've just been spoiled by Gokaiger's fairly even pace. Enjoying it regardless. Good action (including surprisingly good demorphed action), good characters (except Kazu. Hope that changes), and decent plot (even if it borrows Star Wars stuff now a then). Fun stuff. PS Is it bad that I was happy to see Akomaru die? Never been so happy to see a kid die and that kind of disturbs me a little. Did you get to Jin yet? As for Akomaru, don't cheer to much. |

Its not a bad series, but it is no where near as good as KakuRanger.

I just watched the first episode of Go-onger and I get it now! What fun this episode was! I can finally put my finger on why the episodes of RPM I watched didn't click in my head.
Has there ever been a bigger difference in tone between a Super Sentai and it's Power Rangers adaption? And not in the usual "oh the Sentai was serious and Power Rangers made it all jokey" way, but in a "Power Rangers made this fun Sentai all serious and dark!"

Wow, I just finished the last episode of Shinkenger, and from what I saw, I would have been ok if the entire show was done with them cast being unmorphed, they were as convincing as the suit actors, bittersweet but a great ending!

I'm up to the first episodes with Kou on Dairanger. He's... honestly, I'm kind of ambivalent. On the one hand, he's incredibly annoying, very bratty, and it's actually kind of creepy watching him keep groping Rin (especially since this isn't a cartoon - it's actually a real ten-year-old boy grabbing a real adult woman's breast - ick). On the other hand, though, it seems like there is some emotional core to the character that could be developed into something pretty cool. I guess it's all going to depend on whether or not Kou's childishness gets toned down as the series progresses.
And what the crap is up with the weird kid covered in buttons? Is it supposed to be like a kiddy version of the usual Gouma zippertastic fetish gear or something? |

I'm about half way through Dairanger and I must say that it's the best sentai series I've seen so far.

They didn't, I just watched those episodes this afternoon. I will give the show props, though, I was totally fooled until about five minutes before that plot twist was revealed, and even then I was just starting to have suspicions instead of totally seeing through it.
