Megaforce Episode 2 "He Blasted Me With Science" Discussion
 

An alien scientist is sent to study humanity in order to figure out how the invasion can be completed more efficiently, and to discover a way to defeat the rangers.

Discuss the episode here!

I was getting there >_>

Can't wait, can't wait, hope Troy puts a better performance this episode!

:lol
You remember how when Fourze was airing Den-O and OOO used to see who would put up the thread first? Expect that here :p

I'll post every episode today if I have to xD

so I was wondering how moune goseiger episodes have they skipped from 1 to this one footage wise?

Just to mess with you guys, I'm gonna try to post a thread here next week :p. I'm actually really wanting to watch a PR episode, which is a feeling I haven't had since Dino Thunder. Just sucks that I won't be able to see it until 1 today :cry.

This alien is a horrible scientist.

Fruit Loops commercials are annoying.

so the headders are called their japan zord name then become a mechazord? just sounds stupid hearing that.

Hey... what's a Tensou Sentai Goseiger :p?

Thoughts:

I have a feeling this romancing of Gia is gonna get annoying...

The science teacher is into cryptos? Yep, he's gonna find out about the Rangers.

Wait... the giant heads are also their communicators? *sigh*

I don't know if it's copying Goseiger or not, but the scientist personality of the MotW is actually making a lot of sense this early in the series. Not just a random monster attacking for the heck of it... I like it.

Well that's a long roll call.

Those bat things are creepy. Certainly an interesting way to make the monster grow.

"They're Zords!" How the hell do you know what that means. -_-

Still, first Zord use! ...and it was still somewhat ruined by the massive names on the cards screaming "Gosei ____" when they aren't called that here at all.

Yep, Megazord transformation is so clearly different in the show compared to the toy. Why couldn't they have just had a flip-out head in the dragon. Putting it in the tail was just so stupid.

Hey, at least Gosei's telling them what to do in this episode. That's better than last week's where - GO AWAY SPONGEBOB AD - they just magically knew it all.

Actually, the Gosei prefix is used by the Rangers.

I'm talking about the Zord cards and how the real life cards for them give the proper PR names, but in show they're still using the original Sentai cards. And that it's too blatantly obvious and makes them look lazy/would be confusing to kids.

Nonetheless, I know "Gosei" is used in places... so I'm actually not too sure what exactly you're replying to here since it's used in several places.

Does anybody else get the impression that Gia is the bad ass of the 5 thus far?

Being standoffish to jake , calling out his and Noah's bromance , wanting to kick ass without the team .

I am getting a slight Taylor from wild force vibe and I like it.

Starting to watch "He Blasted Me with Science", writing this down as I go along. I'm liking the spoken cold-start to the episodes so far. And from the look the acting is so much better than anything done in Samurai. Gia and Jake especially. I even love they named the MoTW You-Foe. Love that. Mr. Burnley though I see getting on my nerves just like the Principal from season 01. So did Ernie.
The WarStar (Refusing to call to call them Insectoids) voices are so incredably dead-on, I love them. Then Brajira is just awesome no matter what, so.
Did we have to call them Loogies, Saban....
They really need to fix some of the Goseiger footage though. He has a good several inches on Alata, so when they switch back and forth Red loses them whenever they switch back and forth.
And it's really weird seeing Mega Black hit on Mega Yellow. But thats just because I've watched Goseiger, and I know it's technically incest.
Zombats, epic! And I am loving them calling Dynamic before they fire their Mega Weapon, Epic again!
And calling them Mecha-Zords are a very nice touch to.
Okay, that whole speech about the Zords running on strength and courage? Yea. Cheesy.
Maybe she couldn't shake them because the signs were in Japanese on the tunnel, and she was getting lost. Just saying.
Love the Magazord battle. But they missed a trick by not calling it Gosei Great Mecha Megazord. Mega Mechazord?

All in all it wasn't that bad. 4/5.

ep 1 - team get powers like goseiger 's ep 1 permire
ep 2 - team get zords like goseiger 's ep 2
saban follow step by step goseiger story line for pr megaforce

But he is the new guy, how can he be a power ranger and act at the same time?

A really bad show from Japan whose footage Saban is stuck with having to use. ;)

Yeah, Gia is definitely shaping up to be Megaforce's MVP so far. The character's cool and she seems to be one of the best actors of the bunch. I am liking Jake, too, though.

I liked this episode. It had some good moments in it, a bit of retro cheesiness, and some good Zord stuff (it's really a pity that most Sentai shows only use the individual mechs for the first episode - more of them need to be like Go-Busters in that regard). I liked the monster this week, too. "I don't like this card game!" actually got a good chuckle out of me.

I was talking about the zords.

Alrighty then, wasn't sure.

But then... toy-wise (and if I was hearing right in this episode), it's only used in the Megazord combinations. Where'd you catch it as being used before the Zord names?

Ever thought the Japanese cards are better looking from a cosmetic standpoint?

Seriously, the Gosei Cards just look better than the Power Cards, especially since the Gosei Cards don't have big glaring power levels on their sides. Or a logo for a TCG on the backs.

Doesn't matter to me that they are. All I find wrong with it is the names of the cards. Those aren't accurate at all. If those were changed I'd have nothing to complain about.

And since it's only the second episode, it's still bothering me. I'll probably stop caring after a few more and just grudgingly accept it.

You are unpleasant.

They do look better. So much better.

Accept it Tura.. One of Us One of Us One of Us!

I've had that issue for years. At least Kaku has their shogun zords (I honestly can't remember what they're called ._.) throwing a token punch or kick before combining.

Juusho.

I try.

"I Don't Like This Card Game!!!"

Best Villain Death Line ever :lolol

i love mr bunckly fell sleep and fell backward in chair
zombibtaS IS CREEPY

And I'll be here to swipe the last ep like with Fourze.

RE: The obvious shots of the Japanese cards.

I like to think that it's just another homage to MMPR, who frequently had stuff that had "Zyuranger" in clear view in their action scenes. :)

Has the episode gone up on YouTube yet?

The challenge has been layeth down..

i dont think so but KAT.PH has a torrent of ep 2 up now

not really a torrent kinda guy so ill pass. thanks anyway though

Just to explain the goseiger footage used:

The very first shot of Creepox was from Goseiger 1, at the very end:

Everything else in the encounter with Troy is from Goseiger 2.

All of the fight and zord footage is from Goseiger 2.

This scene of Vrak using the Zombats is from Goseiger 3

http://s12.postimage.org/ux5f2r66l/goseiger3.jpg

The end scene of Malkor upset is from Goseiger 11

http://s12.postimage.org/ck4ts6vpp/goseiger11.jpg

Was Spongebob from Goseiger too? :p

That's...One way to look at things :lol

I was about to say this exact same thing. :lol

zombats is creepy

Just finished it, and wow, Gia, she's awesome on many levels. Her lines were just so well done.

That's 2 for 2 for what's shaping up to be a really good show. I'm very pleased.
