Downloading the sub now. Can't wait to check it out.
*prays it's better than Kyoryuger* There's gotta be a sentai premier I can watch and not be let down by. If this fails me I'll have to go watch an older season or something. Edit: Alright, so just finished the episode and..yeah, that was quite fun. It didn't annoy me nearly as bad as Kyoryuger did, though there was still quite a bit of noise throughout the episode, I wish their bracers would shut up every now and then. Also, ToQ 5 is like..adorable. "Boop boop". I really really like the designs for the shadow line too, mostly. Gretta is kinda...ugh. The crows are pretty cool mooks. Madame Noir isn't too bad. The general dude (not the MotW one) seemed kinda badass too. The "IMAGINATION" thing just made me think of Spongebob..and South Park. ToQ-Oh is awesome. I've been pretty sold on the design from the get-go, and seeing it in action was great. The train motif is really well implemented, it kinda reminds me of Den-O a lot. I haven't seen much of Den-O, just an episode or two, but I liked what I saw of that and this seems to be the Sentai equivalent (hell, isn't there going to be a Denliner Ressha?). As for the color swapping gimmick. I wasn't really feeling it. I mean, it was cool seeing unusual situations like a male pink for example, but beyond that..it was just too busy and I honestly don't see much of the point in it beyond being, well, a gimmick. Especially having just watched the premier for Super Megaforce not that long ago where they just toss their weapons back and forth, that seemed to work much better for them than going through the trouble (and noise) of shuffling their colors/trains around. I did like how Right was just running around swapping with everyone though, to the point that Conductor, who I really really like as a character so far, told him to knock it the **** off. The fight was really enjoyable though. Just some great action. So yeah, that was a really enjoyable start to the series. In a way it reminded me of Fourze, just really fun and feel good. Not necessarily of the same quality, I do prefer the more "intended for a larger audience" feeling I get from Kamen Rider than the "mostly meant for kids" feeling I've had from my experiences with Super Sentai (save for Akibaranger), but yeah...so much better than Kyoryuger was to me. ToQger was FUN, Kyoryuger was just silly, and not in a way I appreciated at all. I mean yeah, there were some oddball, weird, silly moments, but I dunno something like seeing ToQ 2 rolling around for no real reason, or the crows waiting at the line/scrambling back over it when the ToQgers henshined works for me a helluva lot more than closing the show with samba dancing dinosaurs. I liked how it poked fun at how absurd things were, especially with the villains just being like "what the **** is this?". The humor here really really worked, Kyoryuger was just..stupid. This also ends my comparison between the two seasons. Oh, and yeah...calling it that the ToQgers are like, dead or something. I mean it's pretty heavily hinted what with the "as good as dead" line and having seen Right falling out of the tree as a kid. Why they're suddenly grown up, and how long the others were ToQgers before Right showed up..yeah no idea. Could explain why they act so childish though. They died as kids or like went into comas or something and never got to properly grow up and mature. Oh, and I've not read the thread, I'm kinda assuming that there's hate for the way ToQ 5 acts or whatever, since I recall a lot of people hating the whole "super girly" pink thing from back when the cast was revealed and she had the pig tails. But I liked the way she was portrayed, it was..kinda annoying, but in a cute way. I dunno. So yeah, consider me on board this train ride. Oh, quick side note. Really glad this was a one-shot sub deal and that someone else will be doing the rest. The subs were really hard to read at times, that font choice was AWFUL.

Watched the sub and still love it.
There was nothing said I didnt already knew from the RAW so I dont have alot to add to my previous posts. The Cliffhanger is really interesting though. So our Heroes are dead or about to die and thats why they are able to be ToQger. I am really eager to see how that plays out in the next Episode. |

I just thought of something that could be really dark.Everyone is mentioning how the main theory right now is that the team died as children and became superheroes in the afterlife
But,now just stick with me here,what if The team never existed,even as kids? What if the team is just the Conductor's imagination come to life? It would explain the imagination sub-plot and would explain why they can take kicks from monsters,fly through the air,and land getting up perfectly fine.

But if they would be just results of Conductors Imagination wouldnt that deminish them as actual characters? Whats stopping him to just imagine completely new heroes once they Start losing a fight?

![]() I just caught the first episode. It was a blast! The show reminds me a ton of Go-onger in how fun and energetic it is. It was just so much fun. I hope it only gets better from here.

Good thing I never played Kingdom Hearts then
![]() What Interests me is how much they can interact with the "real world" since this Episode heavily implied that only Kids can see the Shadow Line for example. |
