[Black Fang]

Despite all the points about this being a blatant rehash of old ideas, and myself being disappointed about prehistoric animals and not dragons, none of this looks bad. I like the changers and the suits. The Ryu Souls and their armor modes look cool. Tyramigo has a good design, but the rest of the mechas except for Tiger Lance are too blocky and undetailed, just like the Zyudenryu in Kyoryuger. Since they do have one mammal mecha thus far, I do hope there are more down the line. Even better would be one or two birds, fish or amphibians.

The plot reads like a Zyuranger rehash. (The dragon knights rumor must have been referring to this.) If that's the case I hope they do a better job with it than Zyuranger did, but given the state of 2010s Sentai I'm not holding out much hope. More likely, and given Toei's absolute safe mode, it'll just be another saccharine "wacky anime hijinks" fest with gadgets that don't shut up, and villains with little personality and effectiveness*

*As unimpressive as Zyuohger was, the Deathgaliens were at least a unique concept for villains, even though nothing interesting was done with them.
