Okay, Dairanger episode 1.
Not a good start. Like, at all.
However, this isn't surprising. So many good shows have shit pilots because pilots have to introduce everything then throw in action then throw in other stuff.

Dairanger just begins. OMG MONSTER ATTACK OMG SISTER NO! OMG GIANT DRAGON! OMG KI POWER OMG I'M A DAIRANGER! Then they meet up with their 5th member. Then OMG EVIL MAITRE D's! OMG I'M A DAIRANGER ARE YOU A DAIRANGER TOO?! KILL THE MONSTER!

Joking aside, I hate the villain designs. The 3 general villains just look uninspired, the monster designs (All 2 that I've seen (Including the one from the "Next episode" bit) just look ugly. And that's not in an aesthetic sense, but just poorly thought out and built kind of way. The foot soldiers are just terrible. They don't fit the theme at all and just look like a joke that someone took seriously. "Who should be the foot soldiers?" "Well, we're making a martial arts and Chinese based series, so..." "Genius! Evil waiters!" "Wait, wha?" "PRINT DAT SHIT"

I love the designs of the Dairangers, but I've always enjoyed them, and I RyuseiOh's dragon form is on point, as always.
