Oh, I'm not the only one who felt that? I tend to like the opening themes and love the expanded version, but in Excite's case, I was seriously underwhelmed by the full version. I haven't unpacked what it was about my expectations that caused that, because I *love* the opening. (As a result, I'm dismayed that the show seems to have largely abandoned it, saving the song for the closing minute of the show.)

Apparently not. I'm not really much of a music person despite my love of Toku songs so I wouldn't know how to describe it in detail, but Excite doesn't really "build" right, and the lyrics in the added verse are just kind of alright, which is a big thing for me personally.

I was kind of worried both of these songs would be the same deal but it's pretty much the opposite. I like them WAY more after hearing the full versions, whereas with Excite I felt pretty much the same way as before.

Agreed, it's somewhat, rushed?

Speaking of Excite, the person who uploaded the Kyuranger songs also has the full version of it ICYMI.

LUCKYSTAR sounds like it would work great as a Sonic the Hedgehog track.

I love the both of these so much.

Huh. I don't know if I never noticed that or just don't care. Probably the latter.

Of course not. You’re evil and diabolical, but not crazy.

I wish Amazon Japan would get off their duff and send me this darn CD.

Where as I'm just psycho. :lol
