To be fair, it looked fun at the beginning. You could only take so much from one character I suppose. I mean its fine if its KR since one man is the title character but when its supposed to be a team and you only get one guy then it kinda defeats the purpose of calling it a sentai.

>_> I don't understand why people want Daigo to go die. He is probably one of my reasons for watching, because of his "bravery". This show just has the Gurren Lagann effect on me. That, no matter how stupid the context. Daigo being awesome? Is awesome.

I mean yes, it is no Divine Comedy. But, at the same time people like Matrix Beast are treating Kyoryuger as some kind of high budget story. When really, it is a Tokusatsu for kids...

That would be like treating Barney as Pacific Rim.

Yeah I agree, the stories that initially established our Rangers were great - minus Souji's insanely bland introduction and the stuff around Cyan and stuff was great as well, but then it was just pure filler after that. And not even good filler, it was insanely goofy and the villains in this iteration are pathetic. I thought Gold would be the saving Grace, but all he did was throw the whole team out of balance and get a story so rushed it lost all sense of purpose. I was done by that point.

I agree with most of the complaints, especially the fact that Kyoryu Violet can't even summon her own damn Megazord.

That aside, I still really liked this episode. Yayoi's an interesting character and the action is still top-notch. I'd like to see what happens with the Deboss Army; they can't be writing everyone out just yet.

The focus on Daigo doesn't bother me. As a fan of Rangers who aren't Red (usually Blue), I've probably just grown accustomed to the focus on the Red Ranger. Having Yayoi and Amy fawn over Daigo is too much, though. I also agree with everyone else about Plezuon not being summoned by Yayoi, but I saw it coming, since we can't have a female pilot a mecha that has does more than serve as a limb (seriously, Mako—Chiaki did not deserve the Kabuto Origami). Aside from that, I thought it was an excellent episode. I really think that Yayoi could have had a better arc before she became KyoryuViolet, but her first time in the suit more than made up for it. I really hope everyone is right about Yayoi being like Kibaranger, though.

I see what you did there.

What?
My anger stems from Daigo, not anything else. The story itself is decent, but it's Daigo's prominence that kills it.
Every Red is the focus of their series, but Daigo is the only focal point of the series. He's integral to everyone's story, if they even have a story, he's in command of every extra beast, he, literally, has no weakness.

A character being cool is hard to enjoy when the show makes them be the only one allowed to do anything at all every week.
