Gokaiger suffered greatly from the shit ton of tribute episodes. I really wanna see the Show that was originally planned with just the handful of tributes.

Considering Joe was the Captain's First Mate I was really disappointed that he stayed behind and sent Gai with Marvelous. Like why? If the excuse was for him to go DekaBreak and do one of the most badass takedowns in the whole show, then I understand. Because man that was great.

Honestly I think about 90% of my issues with the show would have been resolved with less tributes. It woulda given them more time to make the Zangyack seem like a legit threat, it woulda given them more time to focus on the actual plot so it wasn't such a giant mess etc

I know it's a tribute season, but it's weird that in the middle of the show the Gokaiger basically got lost in a sea of ultimately pointless cameos and then when they finally started to focus on the Gokaiger again they ran out of time.

Upon my recent rewatch I will agree that the villains outside of Basco were pretty damn weak. The Zangyack just really needed to be improved upon. Maybe in a perfect fantasy world they would have been as dominant as The Empire.
Actually in a perfect fantasy world, it would be pirates facing off against pirates. Like there's a whole bunch of pirate gangs out there racing to Earth to get the treasure.

I really, really wish the pirate theme was used more. Outside of the Hurricanger tribute, I never once felt a pirate vibe from the cast.

They literally go from these soulless, brutal bastards, committing planetwide genocide in the flashbacks, to the kind of terrible comedy actors you get in school plays, sent down one at a time, into seemingly the same city. I don't get how a villain force that has enslaved a universe, has thousands of ships in orbit, is able to achieve nothing in a show that is longer than average. Quote:

Maybe Joe stayed behind because it was his job to lead the rest of the team? That is the usual role of a first mate, after all.
And I still disagree with you on the big decision at the end. The Gokaigers are a team that responds to being told they need to sacrifice to win by shrugging it off and winning anyways. Sacrificing all the past Super Sentai to beat Zangyack would have been a massive betrayal of their characters. |

The underdog standing up to the topdog for the sake of others is a classic, brilliant cliché in Japanese productions but usually during that moment they don't have the choice to literally wipe out all evil up until that point in an instant.
The choice to fight the Zangyack, although ultimately successful, doesn't honour the characters but it most certainly betrays the audience.
