I'm assuming you are referring to the episode with Hiromu's sister where he realizes his mother looks like Escape and the thing about Magog and Gog, right? Yeah, sorry, outside of what I just told you, I don't remember anything from that episode. It was at the point of the show where I stopped caring and was just going through the motions of watching it just because it has Sentai in the name. I've since come to my senses and have stopped torturing myself through this train wreck of a series.

You really picked the wrong time to stop. That show has taken a MAJOR turn around.

I suffered through 30 episodes of this show. Even if the next 20 are some of the best ever, it will never be a good show in the long run, and thus, it will never be worth revisiting.

But who knows, as the show is coming to an end, I might get a bug up my ass and decide to finish it. It wouldn't be the first time I have done that.

It's like the television version of the argument I gave towards every Final Fantasy from 7 onward.

I gave up on this show after episode 6 - not really because it ended up being boring, but because Arisa Komiya is a piss-poor actress. Classic example is on episode 5, when Ryuji overheats and goes out of control, turning Yoko into a really bad crybaby. I stuck around to see what Go-Buster Oh looked like and skipped the series until Beet & Stag debuted, then I called it quits for good.

Mark my words, this will be the show the rest of you end up re-watching after deciding to hate it then seeing how cool it really is. I felt this way about Blade and I kind of feel that way as I struggle through what few episodes of Abaranger I can get my hands on.

Though I don't follow the show closely (I'm not a Sentai person) I felt that the organic look of the costumes and the techno-spy gimmick was rather inspired. It really made it feel apart from the legions of Sentai teams that came before it. I might marathon it once its over to give a fairer analysis but aside from the show failing to churn out merchandise money, it seems to be an ok series.

The shows biggest problem is that it never decided what the Go-Busters really were. It couldn't decide if they were spies or not. The spy angle gets used 2 or possibly 3 signifcant times and that's it. The rest of the show they're completely reactive to whatever the bad guys do. The spy angle never comes back into play.

Now mark my words. I went in to this show with incredibly low expectations. Gokaiger set the bar too high for this show to follow up well. And so after 2 or 3 episodes I was already immensely disappointed. Add to this the fact that the first half of the series is incredibly boring and I created a self-fulfilling prophecy that I would hate this show. But that second half pulled a major turn around that's worth watching at least once. I ate my words once this show finally gained steam. I just don't think Toei was ever able to figure out where they wanted to go with the series until really late into it.

I won't defend it as the greatest sentai ever. It will inevitably go down as the worst. But I think the case can be made that there are still plenty of things to enjoy.

RPM failed because Disney wanted it to. That show is the best season of Power Rangers... Hands down. I wish more people saw it, it's easily dismissed.
