[Locke]

Today begins my seventeen episodes of Goseiger challenge. Does the show deserve the hate? Or am I once again the opposite of the community? Let's find out!

Man the action is great in this show, and it's even better now we have some actual characters and plot to go along with it. The monster suits are way better than I remember, and without Saban's censorship, things go to all manners of hell very quickly. How much cooler is Creepox here?!

Hyde was definitely the coolest this episode, but I loved the way Agri blocked lasers with his feet, that was pretty badass. Alata was pretty boss as well, choosing to fight even though he didn't have his Change Card. Also Moune is HOT. And err, Pink has big ears?

The only real complaint I have with that opening episode is the whole playing cards gig. I don't hate cards in themselves, but angels getting their powers from cards is just stupid, not fun campy stupid, just plain stupid. Even if it somehow worked, I hate the cheap use of Christian Iconography. These guys aren't angels, just putting in a few wing effects now and then doesn't say otherwise. They would have worked just as well without naming them angels.
