It was okay. I was very aware that the whole episode was a toy commercial and that makes for a bad first impression. They're always going to have to sell toys, but that doesn't mean they have to cram it all into episode 1. ToQger did the same thing and I ended up really enjoying that show, so this isn't me judging the show poorly on one episode. I'm just saying this isn't a very good way to start. I will say the action was good and the mecha effects were quite nice. Shinobimaru might be the most agile zord suit every made. Hope it gets used often.

This episode felt like the pilot to a show that didn't know it was getting a full season. It felt seriously rushed, but I'm still hopeful for the rest of the season. And I need more of Hammer-man and the Last Ninja, and less of that sword's voice.

I don't see how it was any less rushed than any other Sentai premier. Hell, they didn't even show the main villains yet.

they showed 2.

Well no. Technically they only showed one and she didnt do all that much. Kibaoni was seen in a flashback and we only got a glimpse when he was revived.

Not quite. They did a GoGoV thing with it. We didn't actually seem them outside of the one, if that even is one of the main villains.

Hot damn. I love how flashy these guys are. The choreography and animations are super slick. Helps that the suit designs are pretty great too.

"I've got... a dump truck?... Why?" XD

Wonder how long I'll stick with this show. Sentai usually doesn't hold my attention for long.

Is there anywhere that I can watch it without having to torrent it?

I feel the same way, honestly, and it makes me sad. Zyuranger was my first (for obvious reasons) and I was completely and totally addicted to it. It might just be nostalgia speaking, but then again, I got almost just as addicted to Jetman (until I couldn't find the episodes anymore) and have no nostalgic connection to that series.

So, yeah. I really liked all of the suit designs and enemy designs, which is enough to get me to want to watch more, but it definitely felt rushed, too flashy, and I still don't like the CGI. Maybe I should just stick to older Sentai.
