Magi Shine is one of the best 6th heroes. Hikaru just has a nice range for his personality. He still doesn't beat out Bouken Silver, Gao Silver, or Gokai Silver in my book but he's very very likable.

I've always said this show picks up in the teens and never looks back, I hope this week proves it to the skeptics

Back when I first watched all I could compared him to was Eiji. Now that I've have more series under my belt, I can definitely say Hikaru is definitely one of the best 6th Heroes.

I'll still love Eiji and his ridiculous vegetables

Anybody think we should watch Boukenger VS Super Sentai at the end of this LWW? After all it does prominently star Tsubasa, Hikaru, & Meemy.

He also doesn't look that bad in a dress. Spoilers for the Magi/Deka team-up.

I'm down for it. I've been meaning to catch that one for awhile since Tetsu's in it and I'm a sucker for anything Dekaranger-related.

Anyhoo, Episode 20 de gozarimasu desu

"I turn into an incredibly powerful gun!"

"Let's test you out in the living room!"

Hikaru's entrance was pretty badass, not gonna lie. Probably one of the better debuts of a sixth warrior I've seen in a Sentai. He looks like he's going to bring a fun new dynamic to the show, even if the next episode looks like it's going to involve Makito being whiny (but then Makito scenes are what fastforwarding was invented for ).

Nai and Mare made me think of something today. You know what I miss in more recent Sentai? The hot villain girls. The only one we've had since Mele was Escape, and she was only brought in at the halfway mark. They need to revive that role. Because I'm shallow and apparently kinda sexist.

Sure, I was expecting that anyway. While it doesn't make up for the injustice of no Boukenger vs. Magiranger, it does allow us to see how Tsubasa turned out. Actually, I might go as far as devil's advocate to include the Gokaiger tribute episode so we can see how Kai grew since the series ended.

I could actually get behind some more human villianesses in Sentai again. They add a nice dynamic to the series.

Surprisingly neither of them do! I love that team-up, one of the best VS, even if they really shoe-horned in the whole Battlizer thing.

If no one voices objections then the final week of this LWW will be Boukenger VS. Super Sentai then. I had wanted to include it anyway but figured I'd better put it out there for the group that's keeping up with this.

And dude I totally agree.Nigh/Mare/Vancuria filled that roll nicely here. Despite the haters I enjoyed Escape, thought she was attractive, but she also added a level of badassery to the bad guys. Her rivalry with Ryuji was especially memorable. Would love to see that type of character come back into play.

Nah. No Gokaiger episodes. Otherwise I would have inserted the Geki tribute into LWW last year. We should save episodes of Gokaiger for the eventual time we do Gokaiger for this thing. It'll roll off the too recent list in another year.

Episode 21 de gozarimasu desu

Can't hate any episode that ends with Mandora Boy getting thrown in a furnace.

It was a Makito episode so I kinda fastforwarded through most of the scenes that weren't about Hikaru. I feel slightly guilty about that, but mostly just because it meant missing a lot of Houka's bare midriff and the hilariously bad animatronic mammoth. I liked the parts I did see, though, even if the scene on the Travelion made me wish I was watching ToQGer instead (although Travelion's mech mode has ToQ-Oh beat hands down).

I'm liking Hikaru a lot so far. He manages to be more experienced and seasoned, but isn't a douche about it in any way. He legitimately wants to help teach the others but is still friendly and approachable. It's a pity his US version was so incredibly bland and forgettable.

Next week: [Tommy Wisseau impressio]Oh hi, Edo set.[/Tommy Wisseau impression]

[algo448]

21: Ah Hikaru, you are such a loveable troll, you can simply imagine him hearing the beast man plan and waiting for the last possible moment to shoot him.

The rest was a Makito episode... Eriko showed up again, and you know stuff.

[Kamen Rider Lucha]

So, after careful consideration, I have to bow out of this show. It's just not doing anything for me. The bright spots aren't enough to outweigh my general disinterest in the main characters.

Catch y'all for the next LWW!
