I'm definitely finding myself a bit more invested now. The show started off rather boring but I'm having a pretty good time now, even if the show isn't super mind blowing or anything. I'm completely paranoid about Hyuuga though, because the dude has some seriously dangerous "Rie/Maria from Jetman" vibes and I freaking hated that. In fact, as soon as I saw him "die" in episode 1 I had a bad feeling things might play out similarly. I'm pretty sure the show will go some sort of predictable BullBlack is the original BullBlack possessing Hyuuga's dying body or something (Hello Ankh!), but I really hope they at least try and surprise me. As for Taketera as the director, I think personally what I like most about him is his willingness to show more usual locations than what most toku shows do. I'm kind of mixed on his fight choreography, but I don't like the stuff in most Sentai in the first place, so I like him quite well in the Sentai he did.
Anyways that tomato episode was amazing, just the kind of goofiness that Sentai excels at.

I honestly can't believe how anti-climactic the end to the whole Black Knight / Hyuuga subplot was. I'm honestly glad they didn't drag it out agonizingly long, but it still surprised me. I wasn't particularly enjoying the whole thing, so I'm glad it ended, Hyuuga is part of the team now, etc, etc. I'm hoping this means things will get more interesting from now on.

You know, I've watched a good deal more of this show now (up through 36) and I haven't felt the need to comment much on it. It isn't bad or anything, but it's very much just something I can turn my brain off, watch, and enjoy for the fights, pleasant cast, and goofy episode concepts. This doesn't give me a whole lot to say most of the time though! This song though! Oh my gosh, it is so cheesy and so good. I need more of this in my life.

I’m done! I didn’t comment on any episodes for a while, and that was really just because the show was enjoyable, but not super good or bad. It was like eating a really nice bowl of oatmeal with brown sugar and butter! Mmmmm...
As for my closing thoughts, I thought it was one of the most consistently enjoyable Sentai I have seen. The characters were a lot of fun, the choreography was pretty good, and the soundtrack was excellent. Definitely the best experience I have had with Kobayashi yet. It generally wasn’t super ambitious in any respect, but it did what it set out to do well. My only real complaint in that the pacing was kind of crazy, with barely any progression for most of the show, and then cramming a bunch of plot in at the last second. Gouki was my personal favorite among the main cast, which is nice since I don’t normally like blues that much. Solid stuff, you don’t always need to blow my mind with ambition to be a good time!

My favorite episodes are the ones where it involves Gouki and Yuuta's teacher, especially that one where he was fighting over her affection against Red Racer... erm, glasses dude.
