I'm back, and boy, am loving Zenkaiger more and more. This was a really fun episode with some really great character interactions, and a pretty solid message to boot.

Seeing all the Kikainoid boys sleep with Kaito is just plain adorable, and Zenkaiser and Jyuran's transformation roll was hilarious, and I just couldn't help but think about "The Emperor's New Groove" every time I saw them rolled together, just seeing these characters interact has been such a treat.

And gosh darn, am I loving how the Sentai Gears are being utilized. I love how Kyranger's gives them stupidly crazy luck (Haven't seen Kyuranger yet, but would love to) and Ryusoulger's absolutely won me over, seeing him pull out the RyuSoul Ken with the "Que Bon!" sound effect and everything, which was a joy to see as someone who loved Ryusoulger (Seriously, I wish I had the dough to get that memorial blade).

And just want to say, I love the little meta reference with the "What's with the music?" when the Zenkaigers were transforming. And yep, the Kikainoids can more than fill their role as a Sentai, doing dynamic stunts and such no problem.

Next week: The Japanese reboot of Wall-E!
