Hopefully there isn't an auto-transformation gimmick, or if there is one, it is well implemented. I'm not against auto-transformations, I just don't know if the stability can hold. But I'm sure BoJ will have a solid design.

For me the suits are okay. The mech is horrible. But I had a thought, am I the only one that gets the feeling that the designers of recent Sentai series tend to get lazy about something every season? Whether it be the morpher, suit, mech, or weapons? For me, this season seems to be bot suits and mech. I like the suits, but they just seem easy and overly simple.

The mecha looks like Minecraft. I hate Minecraft. A lot. |

It's not a matter of laziness. It's simply that design philosophy within Sentai has changed. It kind of started with Go-onger and has really developed into something that's a bit more simplistic and toyetic. I don't mind it, because the toys will be awesome to play with, but it's certainly not the same as before.
You can kind of see how the suit and mecha designs evolve throughout history. The mecha for example, went from blocky in the 80's to a bit more detailed and mechanical from Zyuranger, to natural and organic starting with Gaoranger, and finally now we have something that's definitely more kiddified. My guess is that they're aiming younger and younger with their demographic, hence the designs.

The more I look at it the dumber it gets.
The quad-change sort of works, and the cubes look fine individually but the combined mecha looks laughably bad. It reminds me Engine-O in its totem-like look but the cube nature of it is just awful. I really don't mind the auto transform nature of the kabab skewer, what I don't like that it's a separate piece that does not originate from any of the mecha. So it might a well be a completely new mecha. And finally, for the mecha, we now have a clear Pile of Bricks to add to our brick of a mecha line. The suit designs look even worse. The helmets look great but than the actual suit kicks in. with a bland over arcing design (solid color, trim around boots and gloves) but with a way too complex individual tempographed design it just looks awful. |

Again, am I the only one that notices how much the elephant and shark rangers helmets look like the ones we used for our elephant and shark Spirit Rangers in Jungle Fury?

The suit design is pretty ugly. The animal the Juohgers are representing is made with the animal face design on the helmets, so it was redundant for them to put another animal face on the torso. Its like they weren't confident that the animal face on the helmet was clear enough to represent the animal or they ran out of ideas and decided to put the animal face on.
Maybe there is something to it story wise, but it just feels like a sluggish design choice. |
