This didn't have a terrible feel to it, but like so much these days, it drags at the episodes most crucial moments. Introducing Vrak's true form and showing the drill to start was a touchy moment as it showed that Vrak was still active and still had surprises in play, but it seems awkward for some who know Vrak but aren't familiar with his "true form". The mass public noticing of the drills was a nicely detailed touch, but it feels erroneous and I'll tell you why in just a second. The reintroduction was nothing short of exposition with a little action to spice. They reused some of the Goseiger footage already allowed in Megaforce, but this time they went a little further by explaining why Vrak can mirror their own techniques. Some of the harsher battle scenes from Goseiger were cut in favor of less harsher fighting styles (cutting choke holds like in the old days), but this is a tad confusing as they continually allowed choke holds later in the episode. Also, holding the minature Lion Mechazord Headder before Robo Knight's corruption was complete seems like a mistake. The two unused Goseiger Headder monsters are a nice touch despite the switch from Gokaiger, but it leaves no explanation as to how the first drill was formed to begin with (another cut Goseiger monster). Having Noah battle Vrak makes absolutely no sense whatsoever and feels terribly random. Couldn't this episode have seen more of a Noah-focus to better justify the battle? He could've been the one who first detected the first drill or even Robo Knight's internal signal or even noted the effect Orion's abduction had on the Ranger Keys! Also, shouldn't Gosei have noticed that Orion was taken to begin with? And like with Megaforce, the Goseiger "giant card" effects are left unedited (long time no see, Seaick Gosei Great). This was average-to-good on its best day. There is so much lost potential here that it's almost sickening.
