Let's talk Mystic Force

ZeoRangerV · 02-02-2012, 02:45 PM

Okay, so I LOVED Magiranger, so it took a while to bring myself around to watching Mystic Force given its one of the seasons I see mostly negative responses to. Finally I sat down over the last week or so and watched it all, and much to my surprise I didn't think it was that bad.

I wasn't a huge fan on how they dropped the family aspect from Magiranger to have what became practically a sole focus on Nick, but the story was still pretty enjoyable. Koragg was a badass, and the battlizer was one of the few I can say I genuinely liked (and the fact that Fire Heart appeared long before he became a battlizer wins points with me too, even if it was painfully obvious).

My biggest complaint would have to be the amount of (for the most part) annoying side-characters who weren't very important until the final few episodes, but they all came together nicely at the end.

It's no Magiranger, but I still think Mystic Force was pretty damn good. Your thoughts?

It was pretty awful but better than people say. The ideas were really good but the execution wasn't the best.

I think I slowed down/stopped watching it when I got tired of Nick...
It was alright. Certainly doesn't deserve the hate it gets. But I've never been a fan of "The Chosen One" kind of stories.
(I was elated when the Green Mystic Ranger was the one to appear in 'Once A Ranger')

Honestly, I believed it was the best season of Disney Era Power Rangers. The movie they did was entertaining, I loved the funny side-characters. For once all of the rangers could act which was refreshing. They brought back Doggie to be Solaris Knight, and how is that not a great idea. And the final episode, when the dragon soars around the tree and she opens the book and it says The End.. I thought it was the end of American Power Rangers. And I would've been content with that, because of how good the season and the finale were. And I am sincerly hoping that the next time Nicktoons does a 48 hour marathon of an old season that it ends up being Mystic Force. It deserves love.

And Koragg! THE NIGHT-WOLF DERNNIT!

I really enjoyed it. Saw the whole season on Netflix and had a great time.

A good one!

I really liked Mystic Force. Some of the music that played during fights was pretty awesome, and Koragg/Wolf Warrior was pretty badass. And Madison was pretty good to look at, amirite?

I thought Mystic Force was stronger than SPD ...

I'd rate Disney era as:

1) RPM
2) Dino Thunder
3) Ninja Storm
4) Mystic Force
5) SPD
6) Jungle Fury
7) Operation Overdrive

Wild Force was Disney but barely.

In what alternate reality was Ninja Storm better than Mystic Force?
