I don't know. The problem I'm having is it sometimes wants to be this exciting and dramatic spy show and make the whole mech deployments more realistic . . .but it also wants to be this goofy wacky show with the robot Banana Splits and . . .the two don't really mix, and the overall effect is something that's not wacky or dramatic and is just kinda there for a half-hour.

I don't hate it, but there's not much that really grabs me, either.

Robot Banana Splits. Never has there been a more epic description of anything, ever.

That hasn't bothered me, actually. The tone of the show is fine; mostly serious but with the requisite goofiness that comes from being a Sentai. What's bothered me is the lack of plot development. The main drive for most of the characters is to rescue their parents from Hyperspace, but what have they done towards that end? Fuck-all, so far. Occasionally they'll bug Masato about Hyperspace, but he always blows them off and, instead of pressing him, they move on to tell ghost stories or dress up as clowns and juggle. The first twenty-seven episodes of the show are pretty much just a bunch of done-in-one MotWs with little to no ramification on anything important.

Thankfully it seems like Toei is fed up with the increasingly bad ratings and are forcing the writers to actually introduce ongoing plot elements. The most recent episode actually set up a variety of important plot points and the preview for next week shows even more. It's actually possible this show may yet find a story to tell.

Or, and probably more likely, after next week we'll get a block of episodes where Hiromu's wacky uncle visits, Yoko becomes an idol, Gorisaki ruins Ryuuji's ironing, and J can't join the team in battle until he bakes a little boy a birthday cake. :rolleyes

Seems legit! Sign me up for the ironing episode and the j bakes a cake :D

Dont you dare tease me like that. If J doesn't bake a cake i will be outraged.

"Behold, my birthday cake!"

Does anybody else wish Ryuuji was Red Buster? He is way more interesting then Hiromu. Not that Hiromu is horrible, his abrasive thing gets old and kinda makes me look forward to the Gokaiger/ go-buster movie. I just wanna see Marvelous bitch slap him.

I just wanna see Marvy's reaction to Hiromu's chicken weakness.:lol

I can't believe I forgot we'd be getting one of those down the line. Should make for an interesting dynamic that's for sure :lol

I can totally see Marvelous eating on a chicken leg when he meets Hiromou and offer him some. :lol

PS Marvelous didn't even slap/punch/maim GoseiRed, only flicked him on the nose. I think Marvelous will find Hiromou entertaining more than anything.

PPS I want to see J and Luka fight over Enertron. It's valuable, afterall :D
