Red is enhanced strength. It's the most balanced form, and yes, since he's fighting beings of enhanced strength it's not obvious. If I recall, it becomes more apparent that he's significantly stronger with Rising Mighty.

I haven't watched Kuuga for a couple weeks now, I just got to the first Rising upgrade, Rising Titan, which is a superior deco to Titan, also I rather like the Gourongi enemy and the rules for the game she's following. But mostly I liked the way the upgrade in power was teased for a few episodes, present, but a slow build until BAM! Super stronger now.

Not only is it really boring looking, with a shit finisher, it provides him with what good jumping? I guess that form is really useful in a...basketball game?

Kinda weird that he got the Pegasus form so early, considering he hasn't really had a reason to use it since the Bee dude.

I can't wait to see these Rising forms!

I love the villains in this show, just because the show does such an excellent job of portraying them as a real threat. Whether it be that epic scene with Ichijou in the church, as the UL stalked him on the ceiling above or when the UL lost her eye and went around stealing them back, whether it be all the cars chucked, the people killed or just the general chaos and carnage the villains are just fantastic.

Even villains of the week rack up quite the body count, and the show makes sure you keep track, actions have consequence in Kuuga and it makes a wonderful change from the general incompetence of the majority of Toku villains, bar maybe a general or two.
