Where the hell did that ending even come from? It would have actually made a great plot for the show, if it didn't come from nowhere right at the very end and make a show with barely any plot make even less sense.

Epic 11.

Megaforce is honestly baffling. Why would they skip this episode?

I assumed that Drake (what was he called in Megaforce? He was so insignificant I can't even remember his name) just wasn't a very active part of Goseiger which is why he wasn't in like eighteen of twenty episodes. He had basically a single episode involving him, one where he died, and thanks to terrible editing its place in the story made no sense.

For whatever reason Megaforce left the roles of Dereputa and Buredoran largely intact, albeit compressed, but then completely cut out the role of the most important villain of this section of Goseiger. Whaaat? Whhhy? And if you were going to do that, why introduce him like he was the main villain of the show?

Vrak's importance wasn't a twist, because for about fifteen of the twenty episodes he was the only general level villain in the show. Gaaaah, Goseiger's goodness only makes Megaforce's shittiness shittier.

Datas Hyper was also super cool. As far as comic relief robots go, Datas is actually useful so I don't find him that annoying and the fact he turns into a giant boxing robot, that looks like a throwback to the classic sentai robo designs pleases me in so many ways.

If I was going to have any complaints, as far as a character focused ep goes, the character stuff in this episode was pretty weak. The cold open of Moune dancing gave me the same creepy voyeur feeling as when Amy rode on that unicycle, and that was about the end of her out of suit focus.

I loved how she got to be especially badass in suit as this was her episode - seriously how good was the action in this episode? For a show that was introduced as light hearted and goofy, I never expected to find some of the flashiest and most well done fights in the franchise - but from a show that has largely strong characters, this was a poor effort for Moune.

Plus, for a show that has largely managed to stay focused on the bigger picture, this episode felt selfishly small. I know that it is a little girl (cry audience, don't you feel the wrath of this cheap device?!) but if her operating theatre is down, so are all the others, so the fact Datas focuses the power only to one theatre is actually pretty unheroic, as they directly choose who lives or dies.
