[DecadeW Climax]

I finished Timeranger (yeah, didn't wait for Shout, sorry), and hoo boy that was good. Puts Time Force to shame, they literally copied exact shots from the Sentai! I loved the characterization done for everyone, especially for Domon, Shion, and Ayase since I didn't recognize it from the Power Rangers version. Domon's relationship with Honami was very cute and his arc about not latching onto his era was well done and developed. The same goes to Ayase's Osiris Syndrome, which is especially sad since he'll probably die soon in the future he helped create. Shion is just the man, that's all (his hometown episode is good too). I liked Yuuri's backstory, which helped flesh out Don as a villain and gave her a compelling reason to not want to go back to the past with the rest of the team. The captain being a mirrored version of Tatsuya was done much better than Alex by wanting to change his tomorrow, but selfishly, was a lot better than Alex's nothing. However, I like Ransik and his redemption better than Donero and I like Mr. Collins better than Mr. Asami because of his fight with Ransik and his more hands on attitude. The best change in Time Force would have to be Eric, he actually gets redeemed, whereas Naoto dies before getting redemption. I know that's part of his character, finding out that chasing power won't let you see the end, but I rather his character be redeemed than just accepting the fate that he put himself on. A smaller nitpick though, I wish the Timeranger actors could cry tears because the Time Force actors could, and it made the finale scenes so much more powerful, even if the narrative wasn't as good as the Sentai. All-in-all, Timeranger is the best Sentai I've watched, I'll be happy to accept recommendations on similar Sentais.
