Agreed. If anything Go-Buster is a reverse Hibiki. It started out pretty poor and grew into something far better than I could have imagined at the outset.

Zyuranger #14 - Daizyujin vs. an obnoxious kid. Have I mentioned that this show is weird?

I'm used to having a lot of random kids in 80s and 90s tokusatsu, but Zyuranger is really going nuts with this. Every episode is going to have random kids of the week, aren't they?

Dr Kain · 01-03-2013, 12:41 AM

Yeah, unfortunately they do. That is the biggest downside to ZyuRanger, but I'll take it over almost any series released in the last 10 years.

SPOILERS

There is a girl that is kidnapped through her sink in one episode, and then in the next, she is kidnapped again through her sink and eaten by the plant monster of the episode.

Actually, I'm pretty sure some of the kids appear more than once, but I never kept track of a single kid's name in the show. Personally, I consider the Child of the Week to be a charm of older Sentai and Rider that you just don't get these days.

PS You're still aren't to the weirdest parts yet Switchblade. Keep going!

In the grand scheme of things, the child of the week in zyuranger makes sense. I am in the process of re-watching zyuranger in fact. I'm up to episode 45. Personally i'm really enjoying the series.

I don't really mind it, either, but Zyuranger is the first show I've seen where every single episode, without fail, has the random kids. Even V3, Skyrider, and Black still had the occasional episode that didn't revolve around child guest stars.

I just ordered the full season of Gokaiger, so once that arrives I'll start devouring that.

I'm up to the Burai episodes. Why is Bandora singing?

Why is Bandora singing!?

ZeoRangerV · 01-04-2013, 06:31 AM

Who cares? That bit is amazing

To promote the album of course.
