I'm glad they're continuing to work on making the mecha fights dynamic.
I'm trying to figure out why everything feels so rushed, given that we don't know much about the villains and we've got a standard-sized Sentai. I'm inclined to blame it on the toys, but I'm not sure that's entirely it. Yeah, we've introduced different KishiryuOh combinations in each episode (standard, standard-chompy-hand, Three Knights, and TigerLance), and they're pushing the RyuSouls pretty hard. Thank goodness they seem to have abandoned the Sou Sou SOU! jingle when the RyuSoulKen is used.
Is "rushed" even the right word? I don't feel like I know the Ryusoulgers very well so far. Asuna, Melto, and Koh feel pretty generic. Towa is memorable, but unpleasant. Banba shows promise. Ui and her uncle still feel to me like sketches rather than characters.
Koh is... well, I like him more than Takaharu and Lucky, although less than Daigo and Yamato. If they were trying to reproduce what worked about Daigo, they weren't successful; he managed to come off as relentlessly positive without seeming stupid, but part of what made it work was the actor's charisma. Koh comes off as faintly gormless.
I'm as baffled as several of you about the casual discussion of killing Minosaur victims. I don't expect the show to go through with it, but this episode doesn't make Towa seem much less psychotic than last week. Maybe they'll make all this pay off when one of the Ryusoulgers becomes a Minosaur host.
I'm still enjoying the show, but waiting for it to feel special outside the mecha battles.
Chasesinister made a good point: unless the Druidons start to operate like standard Sentai villains, we basically won't see the normal-sized Minosaurs defeated before they grow. Given the genre's love for finishers, I'm skeptical.
