Epic 27.
Great, another comic relief monster and a goofy ass plot. What happened to this episodes that involved the whole planet being in danger? They were so fun. At least the episode focused on Agri, who could really use more focus. He's a likeable guy, and cool as hell when he transforms, but has been pretty much overshadowed by the two other guys in the group and often feels awkwardly tacked on. Plus it actually had good action this time, it was so epic when Kingugon got involved. It really reminded me of the good old Warstar days. It's just a shame his suit grants him such limited movement.

Epic 28. Last episode before bed. Please don't suck.
Watching this episode made me realise how much of a wasted opportunity the professor was. With Datas just being in his observatory, and the 'by chance' aspect of the Goseiger's turning up their and finding it, rather than Gosei Knight it would have been awesome if the Professor turned out to be a Gosei Angel and one of the most powerful ones and it turns out Buredoran was the one who killed his wife. In a sort of twist akin to that if Isshin's in Bleach with Grandfisher. It was a good episode either way.

Gokaiger 9-12
Nine was pretty interesting with them getting the Gaoranger powers. Another case of Doc and Ahim finding the past ranger who holds the key to unlocking new powers ad just like last time, it's a red ranger with a jungle cat mecha. Luka even points this out! But it's not a problem, I kinda like how this played out. Got to see GaoRed too! He seemed pretty cool. What is his origin in comparison/contrast to Cole's since I heard Gaoranger and Wild Force were fairly similar? Episode 10 was pretty much just a filler. No real character development or powers, just...cards. Not a fan of this one really. Episode 11-12 were more like it though! Joe backstory ad how he got recruited to join the Gokaigers. Plus! some character development for Barizorg, who I feel at first glance wouldn't be a character I'd think would receive any. His history with Joe was pretty awesome though. Warz Gill is one of those 'my father never even hit me!" type villains, eh? Also interesting to note that Zangyack royalty apparently bleed Tide bleach. I wonder what his dad thinks of him, seeing as the top general he sent called him pathetic. Also, that general was pretty good challenge for the group so far. I was definitely caught by surprise when Marvelous took the hit for Joe like that. Fight scenes in these two eps were great too. Had some of my favorite instances of Gokai Change. The unmorphed fight between Joe and ShinkedRed was pretty great too. I would ask a question about ShikenRed since I seem to with every sentai character I come across, but I wonder if there's really any point in this case. She was a pretty cool cameo nevertheless though. |

So my brother and I are watching MagiRanger, it has been really good! There is a feel of Kyoryuger that almost every episode matters and the team (and actors) jell together nicely.

I gotta be up early, but I thought I'd wind down with a little Goseiger before bed.
So, Epic 29. Just so I don't get my soul crushed, spoil it for me, does this episode go anywhere? The idea of the Tower of Heaven raining down Gosei Angels just sounds so friggin' awesome! It is always nice to have the generals fight directly, but I really don't like Buredoran's Yuuma form. Those flimsy claws are almost as naff as Wolverine's claws in Origins. Plus it all lead to a Giant battle, I'd rather it ended with Kingugon throwing Buredoran into the Super Finisher, that was badass. The rest of the action was just epic though, I love how they gave an excuse for the Goseiger's to fight without those crappy super forms, and I love how it just went all out with all three Generals fighting at once. And my God so many epic twists and turns! I guess the Yuuma beasts are pretty badass after all.

Epic 30. AKA The Zero episode of Kamen Rider Wizard.
Great an Eri focused episode... At least they finally found a context for Eri's personality, screwing the world to make cake was dumb, but here Eri works very well and for the first time in the entire show, I admired her. Although her acting is noticeably bad when she has to carry a scene with only a bunch of extras and some dry ice. She's so cute though, it's a shame about those giant ears. It was also a great episode for Gosei Knight, the fact he questioned himself and battled with morals and ethics shows how much he's grown as a character. Back when he was introduced, he wouldn't have thought twice about killing people to protect the planet. It's just a shame most of this character arc has played off screen. God that Dream Yuuma had the most annoying voice I've ever heard, it didn't even sound like he was speaking Japanese. I much preferred the voice they gave him in Megaforce. That said, I much prefer suits like his that give him the maximum frame of movement. Like Kingugon is meant to be this super strong dude, but his suit means he can't even lift up his arms. DO YOU EVEN LIFT BRO.

Epic 31.
When Dereputa went down, you felt it. He destroyed the Tower of Heaven - something the Angels are still recovering from this late in the series. He is the first thing you see. He is badass. They spent time on his and Alata's rivalry and they even gave him a surprise return when they (the showrunners) realised Drake was never really important. He was a great villain. But here we are, same show, new big bads and the show just doesn't seem to have any of that prior magic. The Yuuma Beasts have never really achieved anything, they've not really got any goals and they haven't really got much personality. They are just sort of there. And as the Angels slammed them with artificial greenscreened special attacks that leave you feeling utterly detached from everything as none of the attacks play out in real time and also utterly underwhelmed whenever you're reminded they're fighting in a car park, you just kinda realise how artificial this all is. At least Makuin's departing speech was pretty cool, if not totally generic.
