Such a great job subbing this episode, whoever at Over-Time did this one!

It's funny you should say that, because this is also the episode where Over-Time's efforts to give everyone very natural sounding localizations where possible backfired on them in a way I remember seeing people roast them for a bit back in the day. You see, they'd been calling Go-Buster Oh by the translated Go-Buster King this entire time, since of course, they probably didn't expect 40-some weeks later for the show to introduce a combination that was called Go-Buster King... which they then just translated backwards as Go-Buster Oh, because, I mean, 38 episodes in is a little late to back down on the choices you've already made.

As much as I'd like to continue on the subject of fansubbing anecdotes, though, I've gotta say this episode is also a big favorite of mine, for the opposite simple reason that it changes the language of pro-wrestling into 20-odd minutes of sheer, unadulterated Megazord/Buster Machine combat. Like, man, my boy Ace hanging tough in an endurance bout against like every bad guy robot type in the show all by itself? I don't need anything else in an episode at that point. This story is already a winner, simply for grasping the deep truth that these sorts of hero shows are kinda *always* pro-wrestling, and just leaning right the heck into being that, but with giant robots.
