DekaRanger is one of those shows that is a mixed bag. I've been in the mood to rewatch it, but I'm holding out for OT to sub the remaining 47 episodes of the show.

I laughed hard.

Not hating at all, but OT is going to take for hell and ever to finish scrubbing that show. It's immensely enjoyable already even with TVNihons work on it. Just hit their releases up.

Dairanger 21-25:

-I know I've seen some of this footage before in PR, but seeing the Kibaranger with Won Tiger/Kaidaioh felt a bit jarring because I really remember that footage from my youth :lol. The "riding the tiger" footage really doesn't hold up anymore

-Yes Ring Priestess, Kou was responable for killing both of your sisters. He was totally piloting the Dairenoh to kill Neckless Priestess :rolleyes.

-Thank fucking god Akomaru is dead. What an annoying piece of shit. Everytime he like "I'll make you suffer Kou!" I like that Kou's automatic reaction was to beat him up.

-I believe it was Locke who questioned why Daigo isn't the leader of the team? I have to agree with him. His story with Kujaku has been much more compelling then Ryou's story so far.

Yar it were me. Throughout the show he's the only one who shows any qualifications for being a leader, and it is pretty much HIS show as well. I think the only time Red gets any focus is when he has to be badass for an episode, honestly between Daigo and Blue everyone else gets pretty much zero focus. I think Yellow and Pink both get one character focused episode only throughout the series. Hence why Daigo is the only name I remember.

Gokaiger 21. I guess we have to follow one great tribute, with an utterly terrible one, huh?

So what is more monotonous, the mech battles or Gold Mode? I really hope the Gokaiger get some new mech powers soon, or they add some kind of variety to the action, if I see Magi Bind used one more time I may have to jump off a bridge.

Yes I know they get a new power this week, but not before they use Full Burst and Magi Bind for like the 9 billionth time. People complain about the old mech battles, but GokaiOh doesn't even move they just immediately launch into the same bit of CGI animation and then the battle ends. IT'S BORING.

Same with Gold Mode, please tone it down, and stop using it as the way to polish off EVERY ENEMY. At least Final Wave has a variety of styles, Gold Mode is just the same special effect over and over and it doesn't even look particularly great in the first place, especially with Gai straining Engrish at the top of his lungs over it.

Plus worst of all, is once again I'm left with so many questions, continuity is important, I don't care what you people say! Boukenger built their own suits, weapons and zords, so why not just do that again? If I remember correctly it was Government funded thing, so with the world being invaded you'd think the Government would want to rearm not just the Boukenger but as many people as physically possible.

BUT WELL FUCK THAT ADVENTUUUURE.

Thats one of the big problems Boukenger had in general. They fought against so many different Villain organisations at the same time but never took the option to make even more Boukenger. Their whole Organisation just kept some of the most powerful weapons on the planet shut away in some giant vault never to be seen again. Cause you know humanity cant be entrusted with it and all that bullshit.

I wonder how great sentai would have been if they actually cared about continuity.

I already have Nihon's releases, but only half of the episodes play on my tv and the quality is crap. I'm in no rush though. I still have Maskman and MegaRanger to watch, both of which I have not had the time or been in the mood to do so. In fact, if there is one thing I can say it is that this year I've had a serious lack of Toku fever. Last year by this time I had watched Zyu, Jet, Gokai, and attempted Gosei again.

The last old series I watched from start to finish was DaiRanger back in July )(or Blade during LWW) and then I got through what GUIS had at that time for Kaku.

I haven't watched a Sentai in full since I rewatched Akibaranger back in October. Of course I restarted Jetman in January, so I guess that counts even though I'm not done with it.
