From what I can gather The Messenger is a Zangyack General Meaning that today at 130pm EST we'll know alot more about Super Megaforce!

Maybe not "a lot" more, but the fact that they've been "leading in to it" since the first episode it's finally nice to see it all coming to a head.

The episode 20 previews look awesome.

This was a great episode.
The fact that Vrak attacked 3 times in a single episode had me kind of laughing at the thought of one of the ranger thinking. "Ugh not this again."

And seeing them finally leading up to Super megaforce gets me excited.

VERY good episode. Vrak's new form looks awesome! The Messenger's design is amazing. And more unmorphed fight scenes.

This episode is what I kept hoping that Megaforce could be. Cyber-Vrak was just as awesome as Cyborg-Bureduran, Metal Alice keeps getting better, and that final scene.. Horsentera!

Oh I cannot wait for next week o_o

Am I the only one here who thinks Cyborg Vrak just screams “BORG HOMAGE!!!!”?

It would've been awesome if he could've said menacingly to the Rangers “Resistance Is Futile!”

Holy crap this was a good one! I cant wait for next episode! Never thought Id say that about Megaforce :lol

As we come to the end of Megaforce, I guess this is a time to reflect. And honestly there are only really three things I'll miss about Megaforce, and two of which are nothing unique to the series.

Firstly, the suits! It isn't until we get the sculpted Megaforce helmets, and the gorgeous regal trim and design, that I realised how far sentai suits have come. Remember in the Power Rangers early days where every suit was basically the same, but they'd have a vaguely different torso pattern and visor? Yeah, it was like that for about half of the series life span... I love you, Megaforce suits.

Secondly, the fights! The awkward editing has fucked up a lot of great moments, admittedly, but I dunno who the director and choreographer was for Goseiger, but buy that guy a bag of sweets, he deserves it! For the most part the special effects are solid, and this is probably the closest thing Power Rangers has felt to proper comic book fighting. There was a limited number of abandoned warehouses and quarries, the action was more immediate and more urban and just in general they focused more on the powers than the stunts. I know people don't generally like that direction for the series, but this is a superhero show, not a martial arts film.

Finally, Roboknight. What an awesome, awesome character. I've pretty much loved his every high, and his every low, because his low involves him rapping while his friends save the planet. Now that is swaggy.

Plus, I have to say, I like the maturer tone of the last couple of episodes, even if the episodes try to avoid turning attention to it. Malkor reducing moving trains to a red mist created nightmarish imagery, even if it's only in implication. Much the same can be said for the Frankenstein Monster Metal Alice makes out of Vrak, and the haunting imagery of her carrying the body out of the burning wreckage. I dunno how all of this stuff made it past the censors, but I'm glad it did.

Also that new Samurai Robot guy is rocking. Great episode!

He likes the Goseiger suits :D
