[Blade Raider]

I'm going to miss this show so much. In the meantime, here's 35 things awesome about the final episode of Gokaiger (mostly in order of how they happened with my 2 favorite bits to end it):

[SPOILERS from here on]

1. Marvelous slash the Gokaiger logo.
2. Title: “See You Space Pirate” pleases the Cowboy Bebop fan in me.
3. Gokai Shooting Star does damage. That’s a first.
4. Navi grave robs Basco’s ship and makes a show of it!
5. When in doubt, RAM IT!
6. Marvelous throws the Bird.
7. Ackdos holding his ground in a chair while fighting hand-to-hand.
8. Let’s find out if this ship can take out an armada. IT CAN.
9. Good use of Extra Rangers including some nice combos.
10. Doc is literally a tool.
11. Demorphed Rising Strike.
12. “We’re not aiming at you!”
13. Gai stabs Ackdos with his trident so Ackdos is left on the exploding ship.
14. Another new version of Final Wave. This attack never gets old.
15. Who the hell do you think we are?! moment where the Gokaigers make Ackdos realize he’s screwed.
16. Gai’s magic finger drives the message home.
17. Helmetless Role Call.
18. “One last time. Let’s give him a showstopper!”
19. Ranger showcase. At least 1 ranger from every Sentai is used in the combo.
20. Tomokazu Seki completes the showcase with the name call outs for every team.
21. Theme matching. Within the 35 combo they match up many team themes such as Turboranger, Carranger, and Go-Onger all speed attacking at once while Goggle Five and Fiveman hold Ackdos with ribbons.
22. SUPER RANGER. The team all go into a super mode of a different team, Gai into Gold Mode.
23. The Final FINAL WAVE complete with the Gokaiger emblem.
24. He’s not dead! Let’s shoot him some more!
25. SHOW-STOPPING WAVE at point blank range no less.
26. Gai, who has the most to lose in this fight, gets to head the final attack
27. Gokai Galleon is fixed. Love that ship.
28. What could be set up for Super Hero Taisen. Both the new goal of the Gokaigers and the fact that all Sentai heroes have their powers back.
29. Gokaigers still don’t like to admit they’re heroes. To the class featured in the first episode and 199 Heroes no less.
30. AkaRed is left wide open to return later. Did anyone really buy his “death” being off screen?
31. The Gokaigers all have good character bits in the credits.
32. Cameos! All the cameos you can eat!
33. Tsuyoshi Kaijo gets the final cameo of the series and ends with morphing in Akaranger.
34. “You can whine about it to your kid when you’re dead.” Marvelous gives the best burn ever.
35. Marvelous finally got his curry!

Truly a great series. I will miss it.
