I have to get this off my chest: Do they really have to have Daigo demonstrate how to insert the battery into the socket? And do they really have to have Daigo demonstrate how to do it for 12 batteries? Even though I know they're trying to sell toys, this is way overboard.
Aside from the mind-numbing exercise, the rest of the episodes are alright. The best is the roll call of the 2 spirit rangers plus Yayoi, although if I have my way I'd rather have Yayoi do the roll call with the other 6 rangers instead.

Well, I hope no one was trying to stay spoiler-free from the movie here
This was a fantastic episode. Torin's "death" was reasonably well handled, seeing Yayoi and the Spirit Rangers again was fantastic, I loved the movie references/clips and Dogold's plan was brilliant. Kyoryuger at its finest. BUT I seriously can't stand Carnival, I don't think I've ever disliked a design in toku this much. If it isn't the stupid costume, its Daigo trying to give a serious speech with Minityra jumping up and down like a loon, the repeated stock footage of battery insertion or just the plain incessant dancing in general. Its a shame, because it notably brought the episode down for me.

While here prehistoric humans remind me of zyuranger so I have feeling this is in some way going to be a zyu ranger sequal due to the fact how the 6 zyu rangers a re humans from the dinosaurs age so them being prehistoric humans fits here

Its a shame, because it notably brought the episode down for me. This episode couldn't have been more polarized for me. On one hand, the first half or so was great. The stuff with Torin and Chaos' origins, his death, his revival, the amazing Spiritranger + Yayoi fight(about that, this series feels really overloaded on Insert Songs. Was that a character song medley during the extras' fight?), I love it. But then Carnival decided to use supplementary Jyudenchi... That had to be the most mind numbing fight I've seen in Sentai. Kamitsuki Change is so time consuming and illogical(you thought Kyoryujin was bad? This is worse), and we get to see it FOUR TIMES. Why did we have to see it FOUR TIMES? Could they really not spread out the use of the other forms over the next few episodes? It's also succeeded in making me sick of Carnival's Insert Song, I don't even know what's it called and I'm sick of it! I really don't even hate Carnival's Amigo powerups design wise. It's a cool idea, and it could probably bring something new and interesting to the fights. But... not like this.

I'm glad I'm not the only one sick of Carnival already...

Damn that was an excellent episode! It was really good to have that quick recap of the movie in the middle, I figured that's where they were going once the singing started.
Now does the way Carnival changes forms get annoying? Sure. But it'll most certainly be cut down the same way the Kyoryuzin's gattais were. Otherwise I actually liked it. Changing the color of the boots to match each new set of arms was also a nice touch. And getting the rest of Torin's back story was nice too. And as always I like it when infrequently used or obscure characters team-up, like the Spirit Rangers and Violet. That was just as awesome and more so as the 3 Mages from Wizard.

Samba! Macho! Kung Fu! Western!
Not happy with two mechs of his own, King finally became a Megazord. Outside of Carnival this was an excellent episode, they used the movie events and explained the importance of music. Torin's "death" was emotional even if his rebirth was spoiled by the preview and the Spirit Rangers fighting together was great, liked the insert songs too. That said what the heck was with the focus on Yayoi's skirt this week? Previous episode had goth Candelira and next one has Goth Amy, the director is having a little bit too much fun... Next episode continues the search for the stones. Poor Endorf... |
