Isn't he just bowing like the lord-obsessed person that he is?

Pretty much.

That's kinda what I was thinking, though I'm only like ten episodes into Shinkenger and he did do a lot of that as early as day one. I'm calling that mystery solved, no idea about Go-On Black though.

Oh maw gaw-! How'd you know I'm a Brony?! Is my Cutie-Mark showing?!

Lucky guess? :lol

A winnar is you!

Hotdamn!

Shinkenger 03

The more I watch this the more I wonder what Saban is doing.

Chiaki learned a valuable lesson, never argue with the man smacking you upside the head. He's doing it for a reason. Kotoha, poor Kotoha, she tried so hard to keep the team together ; . ;
And when Chiaki's friends were hurt because of him, I felt like he gave a damn more. So much more. Than ... Whatever Green's name was in Samurai, I want to say Mike? And him training to out-run the attack made a hell of alot more sense then sensing it and running for his life anyway.
And I'm starting to think despite his asshole-ish-ness, Takeru cares about his team. If he didn't he never would've pushed Chiaki. He just would've taken the Shadophone and found another Shinken Green.

Don't try to understand Saban. That way lies madness.

Switchblade, thanks for the Dekaranger recommendation. I'm 2 episodes in, and so far, it's awesome!

The characters seem cool. Ban is a screaming red, but he's not a 5 year old in a grown man's body, like other screaming reds.

I really love the noir-ish soundtrack. I love how police iconography is implemented into the henshin, roll call, posedown, and finisher. I love the robot fights -- they're more ambitious than any I've seen in sentai so far, barring maybe Go-Busters.

I'm also intrigued by the structural deviation from standard Sentai shows. Like how there's no main evil syndicate (so far) and how the standard "monster shows up, is defeated small, grows, and then is defeated for real" pattern has yet to occur. This show seems like it will have slightly more variety than usual.

And it's cool how the next episode's story is introduced at the end of the current episode.

So far, Dekaranger is making me super happy.

Up to episode 32 of Kyoryuger, after I'm up to date I'm not sure if I should pop down and watch Gokaiger or that one with the trio and the guy with the helmet with the fringe (I suck at names). :/
