Just watched the first 3 episodes of Zyuranger. Before I even get started on what I think there's a far more pressing issue I need to get off my chest...

That's Bandora's hair?!? I've spent the last 20 years thinking that was a hat. My brain can barely process this revelation let alone all the major differences to MMPR.

That aside, so far I'm impressed. I'm enjoying the much deeper backstory in comparison to Power Rangers, and Bandora has quite a quirky personality that I'm sure I'll grow to love as the episodes go on.

Just caught the Dekaranger Full Blast Movie. I've gotta say that for a movie I wasn't expecting alot out of, that it delivered very well. The Dekagold stuff wasn't done as well as I'd hoped though. Why go through the trouble of designing Maris' unique Police Uniform then give her a unique SP license, 2 specific D-Arms , and a ranger Dekasuit if none of these things are onscreen for more than 5 seconds?

Sure she wears her uniform the whole time but none of her other unique features are seen again. I mean seriously, that Dekasuit looks awesome for the whole 3-5 seconds it's on screen. They spent a lot of time developing Mari as a character, who is fabulous by the way, but didn't utilize her fully.

And is it just me or do the Gas Drinkers gang look like they have a fetish for Shadam, Zaidosu, and Gara from Dairanger? They certainly share a flair for weird leather clothing

So we got through out Dredd-athon earlier than planned today, so I watched episodes 30-39 of ZyuRanger. Once again I continue to love this show just as much subbed as I have raw. In fact, I do have to say I like the episode with the spinning wheel of doom thing even more now that I have seen this episode subbed than I did raw because I missed all of the fairy tale references until now. I also love how there was no actual Monster of the Week in that episode, it was just Bandora killing time.

Oh, and I always say this every time I watch the series, but poor girl. She gets pulled through a glass of water at the beginning of episode 30 by Bandora, rescued, only to be eaten by DoraNarcissus in 32 at the exact spot Bandora kidnapped her.

Gekiranger 34. SaiDaiOh debuts and totally kills Kata. That's one point for Ken!

Also Rescue Fire 2-4. I don't whether it's better suits, better characters, better actors, better music, better one-off episodes, villains that aren't The Three Stooges as robots, the fact that every member gets a vehicle that's not a Nissian, or some combination of all of that, but I'm definitely feeling this show more than Rescue Force. It still has Rescue Force's specialized footage problem, but even that's getting better. In episode 4, Fire-2 even Fires-Up without showing the transformation sequence! I hope these first few episodes are something to go by, and that this show will blow Rescue Force out of the water.

BTW his name is Dappu. I think he's supposed to be the Carranger equivalent of the monkey wizard from the Turbo movie.

*Adds Carranger to must watch list.

I need to get around to Carranger, but I'm waiting until more of it gets subbed.

I will join the ranks of Zyuranger watchers when I eventually start and finish Jetman, since my need for more Black Condor overrules my need for Dinosaurs.

Watched a couple more episodes of Boukenger. Continuing to really enjoy it. 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.

Still wishing my DVD from Gokaiger arrives soon. Until then, I'll watch a couple episodes of Goseiger, and get back to watching Dairanger.

Ah, Dairanger. That's 50 20-minute segments of my life I'll never get back~

Why on Earth would you want them back? The ending of the last Jin episode alone validates the entire experience.
