[Paladin]

OK, I'm all aboard for this series.

The cast is very likeable & they bounce off each other well; they have good chemistry and I look forward to learning more about them.

While Right is noble enough to charge into battle, he's not smart enough to win right away- a great change in the Red Ranger dynamic after King Daigo's unstoppable awesomeness.

Themesong is much calmer than last year but I enjoy the rhythm more.

Villains are interesting, since they mention "preparing for the Emperor" that likely means more joining their side as time goes by.

While things did seem fairly fast-paced for a first episode the action was well-shot and ToQOh's fight was definitely worth watching. I had no idea they'd go this all-out with the train theme but I like what I'm seeing so far.


And that ending comment from Ticket... if it means what people think it means than all of a sudden this series has a distractingly dark undertone.


Overall a very satisfying start to a very promising new show!
