You and me both :(

Goranger Episode #3.

It's so good to finally be able to see where it all started. Some comedy - seriously, Yellow, lay off the curry, and pay your curry tab. Lots of gore - people die a bleeping lot in the early Sentai series.

I love this series, and can't wait to see more.

Watched Ohranger again.

If you dont mind me asking, who has ohranger subbed and did they do all the eps?

Should I give Boukenger another shot? Watched 3 eps of it about 2 months ago, but stopped.

I watched the Kyoryu VS Go-Bus movie last night. It was so much fun! I enjoyed all the references.

In retrospect, it wasn't an amazing show, but I had fun. It's been a while since I've seen it. It's certainly much better than Operation Overdrive. Boukenger ranks pretty low on my favorites though. Along with Goseiger.

With the release of more Liveman V2s, I decided to start rewatching it again. So onwards I go with episode three, the episode where Obler proves to the world he is totally and utterly nuts in the most glorious of ways.

The Kaijin look really cheaply thrown together in this show, and this is only made worse by how dated this all feels now, but despite that I do really like the designs and the focus on horror over comedy. I really do like the hero designs too, you find a lot of suits from this era are just sorta bland, but the Liveman are simple but still well designed just like a lot of their equipment.

Plus, despite being dated, it doesn't take away from the fact that the fight scenes are really well done and hold up on the strength of the ideas going into them. It helps that the Livemen are really great characters too. I've got a Super Live Crush on Megumi.

Having not seen Liveman, I must say that I absolutely love the suits designs. I have no idea what it is in specific, but they look great.

What do the V2's improve over the original release and should I wait for a full batch of them or are the original releases decent enough?

The original episodes are fine, but the difference in quality between the original releases and these is leaps and bounds.

While the V2s are much better quality picture-wise the originals are perfectly watchable, so if you're eager to dive in now I recommend them.

Also, Megumi is indeed awesome.
