Well, this is going to be my first time watching Sentai anything and damn, was that exciting.
And yes, the Gangler theme was so freakin' on point.

Not bad. Setup is interesting, characters are likable (so far), suits are nice, the action is good... of course, it still has that new season-flavor, but I want to watch more.
It was also a much better first episode than Kyuranger's. But that isn't saying much. |

Yep, those plus some retools seem to be in the mix too so that they dont look obvious.

Haven't seen the episode and I'm curious about how many suits are repaints. This has happened several times in Sentai history, but I think PR is more for it because they'll make a repaint/retool into an entirely new character while Sentai recycles predominately to pad the background with minor monsters/aliens/criminals/foot-soldiers.

Well, the franchise has mainly been a monster of the week type thing, since 1975, that is a looooooooot of monsters........
It is kinda impossible to be 100% original at this point... The majority of monster costumes are made from parts that are not directly made to last either, most of them flake, or in some cases the rubber would just fall apart after a year or two in storage, even plastic falls apart over time so they likely have to remake large sections or parts of the various suits. Which was one of the major problems they had to deal with when trying to make reshoots for power rangers, I believe quite a few things had to just be cut because the suits where just falling apart. If I recall some of the interviews stated they had to film some suits from the chest up because the lower parts had fallen completely apart, or from a certain angle to hide the fact that major chunks of the suits had just fallen off. |

Also, is it implied that the main villains for this season have two abilities ? The monster itself has its own personal ability, then they have a second one due to the Lupin collection item locked within their bodies. At least our second monster seems to have multiple arms as his personal ability and the fire manipulation from the Lupin collection item. Does this mean monsteres will be able to lose or exchange their item, and get a new one giving them a completely different secondary ability ? If the main generals for this season use that as a tactic they could constantly change their skills. |
