Ramirez and Ian were the only aspects of the series I liked because they were the only times the show took itself seriously.

Even then Ramirez had a corset morph and Ian once did the roll call with a...sore tooth.

I'm just saying there are serious and tender moments, and not to wipe the entire series with such a broad brush. It can be 'silly' But it has so much heart.

And that's twice I defended this show with logic, and good arguement, and not frothing at the mouth. I'm making such progress!

And Nossan trying to help his friend from school.

Yes, there's silliness. But don't try and paint the whole series like that. It has tender and honest moments. (And Candillera in a black thong, so)

And I just figured out Nobuharu is the same age as I am. ... I really am the Nossan

First off, no. That was nowhere near treated seriously.

Ramirez's being dead had no gravitas whatsoever, and Utchy raging towards Dogold wasn't much.
Torin going after Chaos was just a fight scene (Which this show has an abundance of), and Utchy's backstory consists of "Flashback to Daigo's ancestor dying. AND SCENE!"

I'll give you Souji and his father.
I'm really not trying to paint the whole series like that. The show is intentionally doing that. It's reveling in not taking itself seriously, in that characters don't have to be dramatic or serious. And that's the problem.
It's not that the show doesn't have it's serious or tender moments. It's that it doesn't want them so they can have more gags.

And more of Sakamoto's creepy fetishes involving a 16 year old.

Oh God don't remind me of that again.

Seems that way.

Maybe I'll jump into sentai with the next season...

This show thus far is somewhat of a pedophile.

It draws you in with the lustful attempts of Candy, and Sweets. You do finally come into the warranted allure of these entices. However, as all shady white-van owning Pedophiles, on the inside of the van is well... a Pedophile, and as such... No one likes a Pedophile...

To be fair, this is a bit of an exaggeration. However, I do entirely agree with the opinion of being let down by this show, as it draws me in with it's bright colors, and good mood. But, just like a free bag of candy being received by your friendly neighborhood child molester. The show has been a bit deceptive, and just like the judge that comes after. It is found "Guilty".

It is guilty for setting up story-lines only to forget about them, or resolve them with the swiftness in the blink of an eye. Which, honestly is the biggest disappointment I am having in this show, as it attempts to draw in "The child in me" to it's white van. But luckily for me, the adult in me wont stand for this.

But... the thing is... this candy? IS really sweet...

And... I like it...

Which is possibly why I went from "DoctorMaki" To "KyoryuBlue"...

Dangit.

Alright, so i'm going to put my -true- feelings of this show, without the overtones of cynicism that comes from being a Man-child.


Here is the deal. Kyoryuger. It is a fun show. It is meant to have fun with, and not to be taken seriously, or as such "SRZBZ" It is hard to grasp this concept when every bit of media these days has a large overtone of "VHWAT A TWEEST." At the same time however, it is much easier to sit back and relax whilst watching Kyoryuger. As such, it is an overly fun show.

Daigo? Is he a Gary Stu? Sure. Who cares in the name of fun!

Amy? Is she a priss that has a lazy personality? Sure. She has all the heart in the world.

Nobou? He just reminds me of myself... Odd...

Ian? Is a "badass" with a heart of gold.

Boy? ... Ok I admit. I don't like him. Emo bitch... >_>

Even Ramirez. All the Kyoryugers just have a large giant ball of heart, as if Ma-Ti from Captain Planet just let his ring on overdrive, and let it vomit itself all over this show...

Which... is honestly why it can get away with anything. Beast Battery that makes farts? Sure. Why not? It's a show for kids, with all the heart in the world. It can do that.

In closing, I have been harsh on this show (As every other show I have ever watched, as the Hate Mongering Fiend that I am...) watching this show? Honestly does no harm. If anything, even though the episodes are short, as well as the plots being absolutely pointless. It charms the hell out of me, takes me into its van... but oddly enough? On the inside of it isn't a Pedophile what so ever. If anything, it just takes you out on magic adventures of a group of -almost- teenagers with attitude and heart... to save the world... from evil-doers... as powered by an aci--

We are done here... BRB

Well, I finally got around to watching the first episode. Pretty fun, and definitely some great suit designs. The baddies look good (the two happy ones are very strange), and the tone is very high energy. I'll give it a few more episodes I think.

A question though. So we don't get a Yellow Ranger because Yellow is associated with females and the creative team wanted a very masculine team. Fair enough. So we get Cyan and apparently soon Violet? Cyan and Violet are manly colors now? What the heck? A Kyoryu Yellow would look so awesome, it's a shame that we haven't gotten one yet.

Violet has always been manly in Sentai.
