I'm sorta with Locke on this. I think I liked the episode a bit more than he did, but it was a bit of a step down from the last two, just not at "dropped the ball" levels. There was enough I did really like out of it that I'd say this was a good episode overall.

I just felt that the first two episodes were near perfect, so getting a third episode that was just 'okay' felt like a much bigger step down than it perhaps would be ordinarily.

I think you're both insane, I enjoyed this episode much more than the first two.

I think I want to see more Kagura-focused episodes. I wonder if this will turn out Goseiger where each episode rotates to focus on another character.

The focus on Kagura wasn't the problem, I already expressed multiple times I liked that part. I just felt the episode flagged in all other regards, as others have agreed. The first two episodes juggled a lot more content, outside of Kagura this episode was empty and lacking.

Absolutely hope so.

I gotta say I'm loving this series so far. Kobayashi seems to be bringing her A game. I didn't like how little screen time the main villains were getting but now I get the feeling she's building them up for something huge. When Schwartz finally takes to the battle field its going to be epic. Only things I don't like are the uninspired way the monsters grow and the suit swap gimmick. It was cute at first but its starting to get repetitive. Still despite those nitpicks I'm really loving this series like I said and hope this quality continues.

Overall I dug this episode more than the first two. Kagura was actually likeable in this episode (though I still dislike the "Super Girl" and "Ultimate Girl" shtick). The villian was pretty darn creepy and I find myself more and more fascinated with the Shadow Line folks (Schwartz in particular). Hopefully we get an episode focused on the main villain group in the next couple of weeks. Digging the series so far!

I thought this episode was near perfect too. Not as transcendent (trainscendent? Eh?) as episode 2, but certainly good.

The character relationships here are already 1000x more sophisticated than Kyoryuger.

So I finally watched this episode and it was A LOT better than the first two episodes. That isn't saying much, as I am already tired of Pink's antics to make her strong (hopefully this episode will mark the end of that though), but the villain was pretty awesome and there were some more mature under tones here. I did also think Right was a lot better with a toned down personality. HOWEVER, after the tasteless penis joke, I am about ready to just stop. I just lost complete enjoyment over the episode due to that moment regardless of it being in the last 3 minutes of the episode. It also does not help that the mech battle felt tacked on here.

I do like the mystery centered around the show, but the childish behavior of the cast and that Trainboner just completely pull me out of the immersion.
