So I took a chance and watched the final part of this weeks Magiranger segment.

Firstly, his power is over three thousand? Three thousand what? Ranken kinda sucks regardless, Wolzard has already brought him to his knees and proven the power scale, so why is Ranken here?

Either way, I dunno, I'm just not feeling it. I appreciate a good old fashioned badass general as much as the next guy, sentai could do with more Juuzos and Wolzards - although the world could do with a lot less of those annoying lolis Vancuria turns into.

And I appreciated the way the battle was captured, with them smashing into things and going flying, it felt like a proper superhero throwdown like in GARO. They even seemed to put in extra effort for the giant stuff, even if the editing was absolute crap.

But I just hate the core Rangers so much. I figured this was meant to be an emotionally poignant episode as we see Kai try and take revenge for his mother, but he's such an insufferable brat I'd rather he lost.

I can't even write off his attitude as grief, considering EVERYONE in the team are douchebags and there is no way they whole family would react to grief in the same way, unless writers get a kick out of making heroes horrible people.

At least he saved the kid, that makes a nice change, I suppose.
