Gokaiger 23. Oh great Gold Mode is back. And come on now, that new Legendary Power is so lame.

It's tributes like these, that make me surprised people can justify with themselves in defending the tributes featuring a past Ranger simply bumming around when they could totally be helping. GoGo Pink may not be out on the streets fighting, but she was an EMT before she became a Ranger and now she's still helping people even without powers. Unlike a lot of others, she doesn't act like her out of suit skills somehow died when she lost her suit. So what is your excuse giant robot lion, government funded super powers, fire magic and super martial arts, hmmm?

Luka and Ahim, the pirate lesbians. Jokes aside, the way this story paces the characters is great. Luka has always been shown to cuddle up to Ahim, and look after her, but the show never deliberately drew focus on it either. So now we actually do have an episode focused on this part of Luka, we can actually truly believe it was always a part of her character.

The only frustration with the characters in this show, is that the amount of knowledge the Gokaiger have about the Earth, and the Super Sentai entirely depends on what the plot needs in that moment. So literally in almost a matter of seconds it feels like characters have completely changed as they start spouting about something or doing something they just couldn't have known a scene earlier. It's frustrating to watch.
