Your Overall assessment of Gobusters
 

Now that Gobusters is finished, I think it's time to get people's overall thoughts and rating of the series.


For me, I enjoyed Gobusters from beginning to the End. It had a lot of great moments and more then made up for some of Gokiager's short comings.

Enter was a fantastic, and competent villain and it had some of the best mecha fights I've seen in a Sentai in a long while.

Overall, Gobusters gets a 7.5/10 for me. It's not one of my favrioute buuut I'd definitely put it towards the bottom of a top 10 list.

If Go-busters was trimmed down to a 24 ep series then it would have been great. As it stands there were so many episodes that were just boring an had no real effect on the overall plot. Also, Messiah was a complete waste of a villain. That being said, the mecha fighting was good and the ranger battles were amazing. Also, Enter and Escacpe were excellent villains.

Overall, the bad out weighted the good for me. I was more bored than engaged with the show and skiped though a bunch of the eps in order to get to the vastly superior Fourze. The last 10 eps though were very, very good. 5/10

I'll give it a solid 8.5/10

only because of the first half of the series, if i judged it from that part of the show, it would be a 4-5/10, but the last half of the series was SO DAMN GOOD, that it redeemded the entire show

I'm so gonna miss it

Here's the statement I made in the finale thread:
All in all, Go-Busters at it's best was really great and at it's worst was really awful. It's not an easy show to judge as a whole, but I'd recommend watching it...just not all of it.

I give the series a 10/10 it was awesome the heroes were cool Enter was a great villain and the Buster Machines were so cool I loved the series lets hope Kyoryuger does a good job

It was an okay show. I'd give it maybe a 6 out of 10. It had some really great moments and fantastic mech scenes, but the pacing was abysmal and the characters mostly very flat.

I'd give it about an 8 out of 10. That's solely based on the very episodic first half of the show. If the first half had been better then I could see my self giving it a 10. In the end I loved this and it means alot to me. Especially after a brilliant finale like the one it had.

A very solid 8. It not for that middle portion where the plot didn't really advance I'd probably give it higher. Thankfully Enter and the outstanding mecha action was more than enough to carry it for me through that portion.

I give the overall series a 4.5 out of 10.

It has good ideas and I like the Buddyloids and Enter, but the whole spy thing got pushed to the side and we got a disjointed mess of a show. Three finales, the chicken weakness, and a cast that was mostly miss than hit with me killed the show for me.

I fear the worst for the Kyoryuger. I don't care for dinos and I'd much rather they take some time off to do a Metal Heroes series again so they can do a good Sentai show again.

I give it a 2/10.

There was no energy in the show, the rangers were bland and uninteresting, and they had little to no development. Messiah was a waste of a villain and Escape, who was a joke, as only there for fanservice. The commander and his two lackeys did absolutely nothing at all during the series but sit there. We know nothing about them, who they are, what their motivations were, anything. Not to mention the commander looked like he was falling asleep in almost every episode. The Buddyroids were just as bad, but they had the misfortune of being nothing more than annoyances than anything else. Except for Nick, they were useless and got in the way. The mech designs were pretty awful outside of Red's Buster machine and Lioh. Pus, the stacking was almost as bad as the stacking of mecha in Shinkenger. What is the point if they are going to make mecha that cannot even actually move outside of CGI? Enter is hands down the only thing this show had for it. It's like the writers had this idea for a show that would have made an excellent 13 episode series, but nothing beyond that, as they were really lacking in material all throughout the series. The ending was utterly rushed, as the final episode had no breathing room, poor editing, and the fastest final role call I have ever seen.

Go-Busters will go down as one of the worst Sentai series I have ever seen, if not the worst. There were times when I should have just watched Goseiger. I might find that show boring too, but at least it has energy to it.
