Really hoping that next week episode we get to see more Casey I enjoy the moments with Jayden, but it was very brief and he was gone in the blink of an eye.

Bionicle has been mentioned.

It's hard not to mention something awesome.

I've seen this said on Twitter but what if all of Megaforce and Super Megaforce is all just a dream.

This reminds me of something I posted before...
"RANDOM THOUGHT!!!

Bionicle is the Power Rangers of Lego.

The earliest stuff wasn't that special but still is beloved, the point when the status quo totally shifts (Lost Galaxy and the introduction of Metru Nui) is considered The Golden Age, there was a huge shift in direction at one point that made fans divisive (Disney's purchase and the darkening of the story once we hit Voya Nui), a brighter point followed by a darker turn (JF and then RPM and the two halves of the Karda Nui arc with the swamp stuff and years end revelation being darker than the start of the year), a dry period (the 3rd cancellation of PR and Bara Magna-end of Bionicle stuff. Yes I know I'm just making a pun), and a point when when it all came back in a new way and disappointed a lot of the old fans (Neo-Saban and Hero Factory)."

It wasn't the most accurate analysis, but still quite applicable in many places.

Ohhh my Gridon, you just blew my brain, not mind brain.

What's with this editing?

I mean, they edited out Dynaman, Midoranger, Green Sai and DenjiPink, so why the hell does Yellow Mask and Flash Pink get a pass? Come on, Saban. It'd be beyond easy just to have the scene of In Space Yellow to be the start, especially considering she even changes off-screen (therefore needing ZERO new footage) as well as going to straight to Time Pink, there is just absolutely no justification for why they were there. None.

Looks like my prediction of Jayden's involvement on the first page went exactly the way I was worried.

Also, I'm surprised nobody's mentioned this, but wtf was with them having Troy put the Double Disc in the Fire Smasher? The Double Disc multiplies the weapon they're holding, yet the Fire Smasher does not multiply (because, unsurprisingly it was just the normal disc in the Rekka Daizanto). When Noah uses it the swords multiply so they can't pretend that's not what it does. Why the hell is there edited footage of him using it when it clearly isn't supposed to be used in that scene?

I guess we all have our opinions...

Okay, I think I know what I might have done if I could have made this episode any differently, or just overall what I think would have been an AWESOME tribute to Samurai, since what we got was far from it.

Make it a two (or three) parter and use the footage from Goseiger vs Shinkenger. Hey, it's an excuse to use the movie footage, giving us an epic battle against evil Jayden (probably under Octaroo's control, for sake of the story) and tying up the loose ends of Samurai by having the Megaforce crew use their Legendary powers to destroy Octaroo before eventually duking it out with the MOTW from the Shinkenger Tribute. I'm sure Kickback could flesh out a better story, but at least this way we get a cool battle, the last of the Samurai villains will be gone, and the Megaforce crew will actually have earned the Legendary Samurai Megazord.
