Because the ending of the last episode period negates the entire experience from mattering.

Just watched epsiodes 24 and 25 of Boukenger. The first one was a comedy episode which actually had some action good bits in it. The comedy was not bad either.

The second episode seemed like another comedy episode at first, but turned out to be quite serious and enjoyable. The idea of a monster becoming super smart and then abandoning the simple ambitions of Dark Shadow, only to become obsessed with saving the Earth from humanity was very well implemented. Similarly, the friendship between Eiji and the monster was really well done as well. Really strong ep, I thought.

I am trying to finish up Boukenger in prep for doing Gekiranger for LWW, but man, I am really enjoying the heck out of this show.

After coming off of Zyuranger it's really nice to see a cast of dynamic characters with different personalities again, even if one of them is insufferably annoying (is Natsuki going to talk in third person for the entire damn series?). I find it kind of odd that I find Natsuki almost unbearable, but at the same time I'm really liking Shizuka of the Wind already. I guess there's some kind of vague line that separates the amusing genki girls from the obnoxious ones for me - Umeko and Shizuka are on one side, Natsuki on the other. I guess I can thank Boukenger for illustrating that for me so clearly.

Also, I can already tell that the ninja faction is going to bring out the worst in TV-Nihon. Sigh no jutsu.

Really happy to see more Boukenger love It's so under appreciated.

And most of the experience is pretty boring up to that point as well

7 episodes of Kakuranger just flew by. I want more...
*Sighs* With everyone else watching Bouken, and me only 3 episodes in, I guess the only logical thing to do is to start watching something else.

Yeah. I've only watched the first 3 episodes of Kakuranger so far, because I don't wanna run out. Ever.

If it is any consolation, there is no way in heck I am going to finish it before LWW starts with Gekiranger, heh!

I don't know. Maybe it's just the Fallout fan in me, but I was totally fine with the show basically ending on a "War... war never changes" note. It didn't leave me feeling unsatisfied like Faiz's ending.

Haven't we already had this conversation?

Well, I just watched the first two episodes of Goseiger. And all I can say is that I freaking love it! The opening and ending themes get my all smiley and excited, the characters are nice (Moune and Hyde are my favorites of the regular team), the villains all look sweet, I just all around love it. I might have to make it the next Sentai I purchase.

We've already established this. It is no different than the ending to Ryuki which negates the entire Rider War from even being a concept.
