That's just how you know Mike Sugiyama doesn't play around with his lyrics.

Anyway, this is the first Sentai to be head written by Hirohosa Soda instead of Shozo Uehara.

Oh, and speaking of musical trivia, I might as well note that Goggle-V was also the last Sentai that Chuumei Watanabe would do the BGM for alllllllll they way up until Zenkaiger came along this year. Definitely a bit of a changing of the guard going on around this point.

Kyo (Dino Charge) has shipped so I will resume this once I finish Go Busters

Also Kira Mage Ranger has concluded so I will see if I can get it next month.

Both are Mylasian sets with English subs.

Stick with it. It drags in the middle, but the endgame is one of the best in all of Sentai. The last 15-ish episodes are straight fire.

I am seeing this through to the end. Don't worry. I even watched the Shinkenger movie and their crossover with Go-Onger while going through the episodes.

I'm currently up to episode 42.

Finally finished Shinkenger. It's a decent series but vastly overrated in my opinion.


There are elements of the show I do like as in the samurai theme, some of the mecha, the ranger suits as well as the weapons, and the fight scenes plus its opening theme song. There are even couple of episodes I did end up enjoying. Juzo in particular had a great first appearance and is a very good villain who is unfortunately very under-utilized. Dayu suffers from the same issue which is a real shame since Romi Park did a great job with one of the few characters especially on the villains side of things that's actually interesting. If I have pick a favorite(s) among the rangers of this series, it's easily Mako and Chiaki. I even liked Genta and given how at least half of the Shinkenger fanbase disliked the character, that's really saying something. I do understand them not liking him though. I honestly don't find him as annoying as I thought he would be and it helps that he is the one who usually brings some much-needed life to the show that I honestly feel gets rather dull at times.

Sadly, there are times in the show where it feels like it's going through the motions where you're practically just waiting for the obligatory giant mecha battle just to get the episode(s) out of the way. I want to like Shinkenger, I truly do. All in all, out of the Sentai series with Yasuko Kobayashi as the head writer I've seen so far, Timeranger is still her best work.

And now it's onward to Tensou Sentai Goseiger.

Goseiger tends to be a divisive series. Some are ardent lovers of it, others absolutely despise it. I feel it's pretty good, though it definitely slogs at some points.
