Watched another trio of Carranger episodes (13-15). This show really does just keep getting better and better. One thing I'm starting to notice is that the comedy focus doesn't really seem to be at the expense of anything, amazingly enough. The characterization has improved a lot from the start, to the point that even the villains are getting fleshed out now. Not to mention there's a solid sense of continuity despite the largely standalone format.

You'd expect a "parody" show to deliberately skimp on the actual storytelling in favor of *wackiness* but it doesn't seem to be the case with Carranger, which instead chooses to just directly make the story itself really wacky.

And yes, Dr Kain, Signalman is indeed awesome.

Haven't seen Gekiranger yet but I can back this statement up.
