[Switchblade]

I'm still really enjoying Dekaranger, but I decided to give Magiranger a shot, too. I always liked Mystic Force and Magiranger came out in 2005 - the year of Garo and Hibiki, one of the best years ever for tokusatsu in my opinion. Magiranger, though... I don't know. I wasn't completely turned off from it, but I wasn't really impressed, either. Honestly, it just kept bugging me how their mom just out of the blue says "So yeah, magic exists. Here are your cloaks and Magiphones. Go fight evil." And somehow they automatically know how to transform and use both their weapons and attack spells. I know that's typical Sentai logic, but for some reason it really grates on me here. I'll probably try a few more episodes, but for now I'm going to stick with focusing on Dekaranger.
