First off, good job reviewing this show.
Go-Busters was a nice show to have after the monumental milestone masterpiece of a loveletter to fans of the series that was Gokaiger. The show's greatest achievement I think was that it tried to do a lot of new things aesthetically and challenge the norm in that sense. The secret agent concept, the techwear aesthetic and the choice of faux leather instead of the usual tights, the real-time giant robot battles, a drunk robot who reminds me of Homer and Barney from The Simpsons, and so on. The nods to Power Rangers were fun, and the overall relatively grounded approach helped make it stand out while giving fans a glimpse of what could be post-Gokaiger. And Jin and J were great to have as tsuika senshis being the unlikely dynamic duo consisting of an eccentric intellect and his drunk robot.
This was a breath of fresh air at the time for an old sentai fan such as myself, and while this is not my first pick for an entry show (I think 2016's Zyuohger and the current Boonboomger are far more befitting for that role) I suppose it could work if it draws in new fans to dig deeper into the Super Sentai rabbit hole and also check out other shows. Regardless, Go-Busters is a must-watch and a great example of how you follow up a milestone show such as Gokaiger.
