He's also 1000 times less annoying than Magiranger's Kai, Dekaranger's Ban, and Gekiranger's Jan in their respective first episodes. Plus, his first henshin was baller af.

i can't believe you just dissed three of my favorite all-time super sentai red rangers in rapid succession like that wow rude

But on a serious note, I understand the apprehension about Lucky and his character. I'm honestly not too bothered by how they're portraying him so far, there's been worse in my opinion. The actor's definitely got a nice energy around him, though not as nice as Ryo Ryusei did as Daigo nor is the character's catchphrase as nice. I do have a problem with his motivation of becoming a Kyuranger being basically "wow that's cool i wanna join in", even though he does show that he wants to stop Jark Matter from controlling the universe when they talk to him about it.

And I feel like they did a pretty good job of setting up the personalities of each of the Rangers while giving some surprising focus on Garu, since you'd think being the Red Ranger the first episode would be focused on him. But it does feel like they do cram a lot into the first episode, whatnot with introducing the first three initial Kyurangers plus Raptor, then Lucky and then Garu, and then KyurenOh (the fight was pretty kickass in my opinion). I have a feeling that we won't be seeing much of the individual Voyagers if they're only using CGI ones for the limbs. Hopefully that won't be the case.

Overall, I feel like it's kind of a standard premiere episode of a Super Sentai series. Has a lot of good, has some bad, but as always there's a lot of potential. Can't wait for the second episode.
