As soon as I turn on episode 4, I remember watching the hell out of this when the episode was new. Having the Five Venom Fists show up and lay the smack down on the Gekirangers, having Rio show up and establishing the rivalry between him and Jan, and then the five on one mecha battle. So much good stuff. I also enjoyed how the Five Venom Fists have their own role call.

Then we move into the Kademu episode and a spotlight on Ran. I still remember going "Holy shit!" when they turned the slab over and there was a perfect outline of Kademu, which was why Ran last to him. Also remember doing a small fist pump to myself back in the day when I called the bag on Kademu's head hiding something important. And of course, we get the start of the Madoku plot.

Now for Retsu's spotlight. Moriya was always my favorite of the Five Venoms, just because of how he fought. Standing on the walls and making you come to him. And then he has the whole lizard detach tail and regrow it taken to extremes. Of course, Retsu being Retsu fights Moriya on his own terms and lays a spectacular smackdown on him. To one of Gekiranger's many catchy tunes no less. We also learn that Retsu was a painter before joing SCRTC, and he joined because of his brother. Surely this brother won't come up again . Finally, "We made it~!" .
