Gooby, please.

I have yet to see it as I don't get Nick. :( But, I'll post a hypothesis to the aforementioned when I do.

It was a lot better than I thought it was going to be, based on the previews for it + some of the reviews on here.

I did find the monster growing from their original fighting place awkward... but I don't think I would have noticed/remembered if people hadn't pointed it out on here.

I was more concerned about the people who were freed from the giant concrete block without having pieces hurt them. When Noah is morphed, his suit is also a different color between America and Japan footage... but that also has to do with the film quality.

All in all, it was a good episode. They also did a really good job of meshing the American and Japanese footage while fighting under the bridge. It was believeable that the lady Noah talked to / saved was the same lady as the one from the japanese footage when she is laying under the bridge.

Other than that horrible bit of editing before the monster grew I have no complaints about the episode itself. I'm seriously finding it hard to care about Troy, but since I really like the other four its not becoming an issue that's severely affecting my enjoyment of the show yet.

Just saw it. Pretty decent episode, though I think Ep. 2 was better executed.

Andrew's ADR is still pretty meh. It's much better than Samurai's beginning though, and Samurai's ADR did pick up toward the end of the show.

I was under the impression that morphing gave the user an enhanced strength, speed, agility, etc. I was somewhat surprised about the whole "Snake Axe" issue while Noah was morphed, and Emma's lack of being able to just leap onto the cargo box.

Another gripe I had was modifying the Snake Axe itself. Why? How? Aren't these weapons magical? Granted by Gosei? Wouldn't they be relatively light as is? Or is it technological? If so, then perhaps Noah modified the programming on the card.

Lastly, the monster blowing up and cutting back to the assembled Blaster (forgot the name) after Noah took the Axe and freed the civilians... I don't know. It's not logical. If the Rangers were standing there without the assembled blaster and Noah was holding the Axe, maybe. Not trying to nitpick here but it definitely doesn't make any sense.

Also, I haven't seen much of Goseiger, but what I have seen, Hyde was something of a badass. I wonder how much footage was taken from Goseiger, because I don't see Hyde not being able to lift up the Snake Axe and Agri's Axe pinning Hyde to the ground... it's just seems too comical for Hyde.

EDIT: I wanted to add that I like the double entendre the episode provided. Nice work Saban and Co.

i thought the was a great episode :)

The way Noah got the sea brothers powers made me think of how the Gokaigers get their Ultimate powers, so this is too me is a great set up for season 2 when they're piloting the Gokai Galleon.

Remember folks this is a kids show. You can pick on it all day but in the end you can either sit back and enjoy it or you change the channel. ;)

Hyde wasn't anything of a badass. Hyde was cool, calculated, the thinker of the group with a passive nature. He'd be the one to plan every detail of a problem out and exicute it in a well-layed forthought. Agri was the badass of the group. And Hyde couldn't lift the Axe. No one could aside from Agri.

Yes, but even as a kids show, it's going to have headscratchers and minor plot holes. Doesn't mean we can't ask questions about it. This is a discussion forum, right?

Well that does clarify it some. So the footage where Noah was trying to lift the Axe and when it fell on his toe was the sentai footage?

Very true. I think that because a majority of us are adults we tend to view the show with certain expectations or at least from a perspective that may not be exactly aligned with that of the target demographic. I acknowledge as an anniversary show that has stuff aimed at the adult fans who grew up on the show. But in the end of the day it is a kids show to to sell toys and merchandise. But I do love the discussion positive and negative but the negative parts sometimes can be a bit much. I understand when you see the card say Seaick and you are like blah blah blah its from the Sentai version why didn't they change it? Who gives a shit really?! I think it's a cool and fun nod to the source material. Ah I'm sorry i went on a rant. I welcome the debate and look forward to seeing how this series plays out.

Yeah, so far? This show is... Better than Samurai... But...

Honestly? It is falling a wee bit short.

I just got done watching RPM, and honestly? That was a great show, but... I find myself comparing it to Megaforce.

Honestly? It doesn't hold up at all.

The editing is choppy and lackluster, which is almost a nod to MMPR, but even MMPR did it right...

I hope this show gets better, because we are only three episodes in... But...

The first episode sucked me in, the next two just plain sucked. ;(

2/10

I don't know if you've watched MMPR lately, but MMPR certainly did not get it right a lot of the time. :lol I thought Megaforce had really good editing right up to that monster growing sequence.
