Yeah, I personally don't get the hate, but whatever. This show continues to be fantastic and probably my favorite since ToQger. It's refreshing to have a Sentai I actively look forward to after two years of duds.
The Stinger reveal was interesting because, yeah, he's not evil or whatever, but he's clearly still going to have issues with Champ at some point. I look forward to seeing how they reconcile him being a loner with him (possibly) having killed Champ's creator at some point in the past. His actor is also the best of the bunch, so it's great he's given the most meaty role. I was really scared the series would be grounded on Earth for the rest of its run, but the way Toei have actually branded this as "the first chapter" of the series and given this story arc an actual name gives me a lot of hope that we won't be on Earth for the rest of the show. It's literally called the "Earth Liberation arc", that implies it's only one part of the series. If anything, saving Earth is what will kickstart the team into going back out to space - they show they can defeat so many generals on one planet and that's something they can use to give hope back to people. But yeah, Kyuranger continues to be a very well done series for me. I absolutely did not enjoy the first episode, it was rushed and Lucky was overbearing as all get out. The show immediately did a 180 and toned Lucky down - he's still a vocal Red, but he seems like a genuine character who cares for his team mates and people he interacts with. So much of the show seems like it's very well thought out and detail is given to aspects I'd never even really focused on before. My favorite part of the episode was actually seeing the crowd finally support the Kyurangers. It wasn't your typical "crowd wildly cheers on the heroes" scene, it was a few people muttering their support. It nails the idea that these people have been so despondent for who knows how long and this is their first real taste of hope, which is something they don't even really know how to react to. It was my favorite moment of the episode. Last edited by Aoi Kurenai; 03-13-2017 at 10:46 PM.. |

I think the last couple of episodes have been great. It's still a bit of a shame that the "prologue" was rushed but i'm interested in seeing how the show handles itself now and if saving Earth is just PART of the Kyuranger story.
The robot stuff in this show has been pretty cool so far. I like that there was a big ol' space battle with the Kyurangers flying their Voyagers around and just... doing stuff. Not just combining in stock footage. Lucky seems to have changed the way he YOSHA RAKIs, it was way less grating in this episode than in the past. He still needs to do it less though. Raptor's cute as fuck. It was last week's episode but whatever. |

That was still better than a straight filler episode. I got nothing against the basic formula (hey, that's super sentai), but I'll appreciate if along the way they'd avoid easy conveniences like the Kyulette that did absolutely nothing 1 episode after its introduction (*poof* here's the 9 of us just because), and the antagonist rival plot just throw out the windows because the guy was in fact a spy.
Let's hope the earth "arc" is not 45 episodes long.

Well, I'm enjoying the show. This episode was fine.
Was worried about the possibility of a child Ranger for acting reasons but I really didn't find Kotaro objectionable. And they're already setting him up as Stinger's pupil, so, that's good. |

Didn't they mention that Gokuma Skyblue is supposed to be like Sasori Orange's friend or something?

I think all it said was that they have was a connection of some kind which is odd because I don't remember Sasuke getting along with a kid younger than him or anyone at all.
