Second episode, also quite good! Again, it keeps things straightforward while laying groundwork for future developments, a smart use of the short episodes that I hope will pay off big if the writers keep it up. The action has a different feel from Rider and Sentai that I can't quite put my finger on, but it's fun.

I'm especially liking how Sun Wan Ning (I had to look up his name, has it been mentioned onscreen even once?) is characterized through his work as a repairman, it makes his drive to help people feel a little more grounded. That plus his moments of cockiness keep him from feeling too bland, even though he is very much a typical toku hero.

Still not the biggest fan of the Bataar suit but it is growing on me, especially when I headcanon the mismatched colors as a sign of the post-apocalyptic future where it was built. When you're throwing together experimental tech while besieged by monsters, a unified color scheme isn't exactly top priority!
