Ohranger; how I've been meaning to start you for a while now. With the DVD set coming out later this year I thought it was time I gave the show a viewing. Why not wait? Because while I will gladly support most Sentai releases SHOUT! does, it is hard to decide if I want to buy a set when I haven't seen the show. So here we are.

Episode one is honestly one of the best first episodes I've ever seen in any Sentai. It's action packed and thus is an episode that you not only want to keep watching, but makes you energized to watch the next. Baranoia is introduced pretty well and I really enjoyed their clear cut demands of the UA/Earth. It was a bit humorous that they sent so many footsoldiers, aircraft, walkers, and a tank after Shohei, Momo, Yuji, and Juri. At the same time though it was rather interesting seeing them throw so much of their forces into trying to conquer, or at least defeat this small set of humans before they become Ohrangers. Goro was plain great to watch and was pretty boss like once he transformed and started fighting. If I had any complaint it would be that the episode needed more of Miyauchi.

Overall I thought it was a really good opening episode. How much am I going to watch? My usual rule is watch the first five to see if a Sentai can hold my attention to keep watching. If Ohranger does then I think I'll watch (at that point) 6-10 before calling it a break for the time being.
