Yeah, what a load! What, just 'cause your brother betrayed your people to join an evil space shogunate, manipulated you into believing he might still be a good guy to get you to spill sensitive information, tried to kill you after callously mocking you for believing he might still be a good guy, and then killed your best frenemy who spent several months hating your guts only to nevertheless selflessly sacrifice himself to save you, you're feeling a little emotional? What a baby! You call that trauma?! Get back to me when you have some REAL problems, Stinger!

But in all seriousness, I'm curious why you harp so much on character development in Kyuranger. Obviously guys like Garu and Spada are still in need of more attention, but it's the kind of thing where I feel like shows with way smaller casts have failed way harder.

Outside of the real AAA, solid gold, top tier Sentai like Gekiranger, character growth often isn't something you get a lot of in 18 episodes. Tell me how Saya or Gouki had grown by this point in Gingaman. Or even in the entire series. What about everyone in Zyuohger?

I can see where you might feel like "well those shows had other things to fall back on", but it seems like instead of criticizing the elements of Kyuranger that are actually bad, you're focusing on something it's handled, at its worst, no more poorly than most other Sentai.
