[Sh Ranger]

I already knew we'd be getting some globetrotting this season to fully explore this cool fantasy world, it's a common trope for the genre. But damn, they're going fast! One kingdom per episode per Ranger focus doesn't feel like enough time to delve in to the cultures. This episode seriously wants to emphasize how Nkosopa is super cool and futuristic. And it succeeds, but also, it makes me want to spend a little more time there, instead of the narrative immediately shifting to yet another kingdom and then another and so on and so forth. By Episode 5, we'll probably have seen them all and I can't help but wonder, where we're going from there?

It's a good episode nevertheless. We've seen what a bad king looks like, so naturally this episode shows us what a good king looks like, albeit an unconventional one. The President-King Yanma is rude, impulsive and has a drinking habit and yet, he's loyal to Nkosopa and his subjects, who are loyal to him in return. It makes sense for him to be our first example of a good king, being the one to openly reject Racles' terms, tell him how much he sucks and refuse to negotiate with him. It's a serious blow to Racles' morale that a fellow king would side with a "terrorist", "usurper" and self-proclaimed King of Evil over him. I love how all these Rangers are strong leaders in their own right and I enjoy the competitive rivalry between Gira and Yanma.

Hey, slow down there! Maybe wait until all 5 characters have been properly introduced before making your final judgment?

Haha, yeah, I thought that was pretty unique.
