I think I thoroughly hate Noel. Like, the Patrangers just prove how much better people they are in comparison to him, where his scheming to get his loved one back is feeling more like he's using other people.
Despite getting the bulk of the screen time, the Lupinrangers are so underwhelming aside from Umika. Touma is a brick, Kairi is just such a dull loner, and Noel needs a solid boot to the face. And while I do like Umika, her charm comes from how she interacts with other characters, rather than as a character herself. Meanwhile, Keiichiro, who looked like the most 1 dimensional character in Sentai history, is turning out to have the most layered personality, and Tsukasa and Sakuya are genuinely interesting to watch as they play off Keiichiro and each other (And Umika) so well. And so, 2 more mechs (And power ups) go to the Lupins, Noel gets to have his cake and eat it, and the police just have to resort to end of episode hijinks.

The Lupinrangers started off strong in the series as characters, but after a while they kinda stopped being interesting, whereas the Patrangers started off weak in the series as characters, but became much, much more interesting now. Seriously, can we let the Patrangers get their upgrades? This is the first time I've ever seen a non-sixth red Ranger get shafted so badly.

Is it so bad that I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Noel get beat up?
Everybody has already said what I wanted to say about the imbalance of the team focus so I'll just say that Keiichiro better get an upgrade at least.

Since Noel is genius engineer, I hope he can modify SirenStriker so when SirenStriker power is used, Noel and other Patrangers will access SirenStriker armor at same time. I really miss to five members upgrade like in Fiveman, Gingaman, Dekaranger, Magiranger, Shinkenger, and Goseiger Last edited by Blade Fang; 10-29-2018 at 06:35 AM.. |

I've stopped watching LuPat since episode 35, is there any plot progress since then? I'm a Lupinranger fan but seeing them outshine the Patrangers is kinda hurt to watch. And it seems the Patrangers didn't have any motivation to reveal Lupinranger's identity or even arrest them. I thought this show is about police chasing criminals.

I still love this show, I loved this episode, and I even love Noel quite a bit, but I definitely have to agree the Patrangers are getting shafted to the point of absurdity now.
I could handle Splash, you know? It was almost cute the one time, but when you're printing out boxes for the DX Siren Striker with Lupin X's mug slapped all over them in spite of the fact the toy shouts "Super Police Change" (a sound bite conveniently left out of this episode) , it just comes off as shockingly disingenuous, to say the least. Fortunately the writers don't seem to have given up on the Patrangers as characters, or this would be totally unbearable. Given that the Super Lupin X armor was clearly designed to be a generic power up for any of the Patrangers, I have no doubts that, bare minimum, we'll see Keiichirou using it in the finale alongside Super Lupin Red, but it would've been so much better to just not have to deal with this farce in the first place.

I agree that Umika is best when she's interacting with other characters because she's a bit dizzy or when shit hits the fan her panicked expressions are so cute.
No one likes Touma, but that's not the actors fault. His role is the moody and boring older guy. It looks like Sakuya is going to get dumped in the upcoming episode too. |

Yeah I still like this show but this still pisses me off. Turns out, advertising the Lupins as the cool bunch but the Pats as stupid incompetent oafs a lot of the time doesn't make kids want the Pat toys, who could have known?

Unless Siren Striker ends up being used by Patkaiser - and going by the Next Time, that probably won't be next episode at least - then that mech hasn't gotten a new upgrade since Strongbiker. Unless you count Trains, but do we count Trains?
