I just finished this season last week, and it is nothing if not fun. The first episode I will admit is pretty exceptional; I've had friends describe the feeling of watching it as if their brain's in a frying pan and yeah I really see that, it doesn't give any room to breathe and I can't believe I'm saying that as a positive. But even beyond that it's a wild cacophony of nonsense and countless extra finishers and main villains dressing up as clowns and a pink who's the coolest action hero you'll ever see, with the final stretch being a bundle of wonderful surprises and a tone shift that doesn't quite work as well as it wants to but only because it's putting in so much effort to make it work and pay off anyway. Dynaman is a show that is constantly impressive and, for an 80s tokusatsu sentai; is never, ever boring!

As a little fun fact? This is the show where Sentai went from having a half hour slot to having a 25 minute slot (including adverts; so in other words from 25 minutes to 20 minutes), at about episode 8 which would continue on until midway through Megaranger. And you can sure as hell bet with how stupidly speedy episode 1's pacing is that even less time makes certain that the show is kept insane
