Legitimately impressed by this episode, it's a real shame the show can't hold this type of quality up all the time.

I don't think he's awful - we're not looking at a Takaharu here - but Stinger has become a relatively juicy part, and this actor is just doing... okay. That's not all that severe as criticism given that really good young actors are relatively rare. With all that said, I do think this was the strongest episode of the series. We've desperately needed character-focused episodes that don't try very hard to sell new toys. Focusing on not-Lucky was a great choice. The "kids' show" element was underscored by the episode carefully making clear that Champ will be back, although I hope they go with the interesting choice they suggested that he might be different enough for *this* Champ to be effectively dead. We'll see if they're willing to follow through with that. (I hope they are, since he's been a relatively one-note character.) They did a great job of selling Scorpio as a closet hero, although I would've liked to have seen where they went with that choice. Scorpio is just a less interesting character now that we know he doesn't care about his brother. But yeah, Champ being blown up was shocking in a good way. Scorpio's creepy under-mask face is great, but I'm glad they're mostly keeping the awesome mask. I'm sort of braced for next (this) week's episode to be grating. Given that this episode made a few strong choices, though, I could probably get away with being more optimistic. Kyuranger is inching toward realizing its potential. |
