I watched episodes 39-45 tonight. There were some good episodes in this batch, but there were alot quite a few stinkers. I feel like the show is losing steam because they had 3 bomb plots in a row, and only one of them actually felt like it had heart to it (one that dealt with a kid strapping a bomb to himself). There was a really solid two parter than dealt with a clone army that was interesting, and then there was one that featured a terrorist mini nuclear bomb plot that was way too convoluted for its own good. I've also come to realize that there has not been a single episode dedicated to Walter. Bikel is the only one of the two to actually have a personality and interacts with others. Walter is just there because... well I don't know. I've got four episodes left, I really hope one of them is dedicated to Walter.

It would be nice if they had a criminal from a previous episode return too.

Well I just finished the series and the last four episodes were kind of meh.

First, 46 was kind of funny to see Barza's actor trying to play a gangster that got his idea from the movie The Godfather.

47 was a pretty good episode, but the ending made it sound like they were going to go after this crime syndicate.

48 had nothing to do with the crime syndicate and half of the episode was a friggin clip show. A CLIP SHOW!!!! The only other series I've seen pull this kind of bullshit stunt has been Gundam SEED Destiny.

49 continued the story from 48, giving us a nice tie into the first episode, and the ending was fine.

Overall, I enjoyed the show, but there was a lot of wasted potential. Walter never had a single episode dedicated to himself and Ryoma was as generic as you can get.

I'll save the rest of my thoughts for when I review the show.

Gone back to watch Tomica Hero Rescue Force with only six episodes left. Amazingly there are some silly jokes that probably make me cringe but here they make me laugh and cringe only a little. I hope Rescue Fire is as good or if not better than Rescue Force.

While I don't think that Rescue Fire is as good Rescue Force, or as good as Ryukendo, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't very satisfied by the character growth the main character went through over the course of the show. I was also very surprised by some of the plot twists in the show. They made what was otherwise a pretty average Tokusatsu into something that was surprisingly good at keeping you invested.

My review for Winspector:

Finished 70's Spidey. Christ, 36 episodes of it were mere filler

lol

Not surprised. I've only watched the first and final episodes and they were the exact same episode, just one being the villains getting defeated for good and one with him getting the spider powers.

Juspion Episode 17: All I know is Juspion is a Brave Badass and I love seeing him fight the Megabeast Empire. I like that it is more serial than episodic for a Showa Era Metal Heroes show. I can't wait for more.

Glad you're enjoying the show. I'm in the mid-to-late twenties at the moment but I'm finding the show, while not bad, boring as sin save for the episodes that really show its age. Its probably because I find Juspion and Anri to be boring characters.

I meant to watch the Belial/Zero movies earlier, before Geed started, but...I forgot.

So I guess I'm making up for that. Just finished Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy How Long Can We Even Make This Title Legends The Movie.

Was a rather annoying experience, though, since at least for the version up on Kissasian some silly goose accidentally uploaded their fanfiction instead of subtitles for the movie. It was rather distracting.

I guess it was still watchable though.

Movie overall was alright, I think. Didn't mean much to me, and I think Rei's actor isn't very good, but it was ok.
