A straggler named Hoeru Tono witnesses a monster attack and hears talk of a special ring that can grant wishes.

Haruhi Iuchi as a completely different character?!

Weird ass first episode. In a good way tough, that’s much more enjoyable than last year’s by-the-book Sentai.

I looked. Well, Gozyuger is trying his best to be unusual and surprising. There are villains in human form, transformation after the battle of mechs, and an unusual main character. In fact, Hoeru is a typical cool eccentric, only instead of the excessive self-confidence usual for such MCs, he has the complete opposite. That is, unlike Tsukasa, when the world tells Hoeru that he is a loser, Hoeru believes the world.
But, as he correctly noted, Tega Sword Hoeru is only at the beginning of his journey and the wolf cub has yet to become a leader and understand where his pack is and where to lead it. Speaking about the episode as a whole, it was bright, fun and dynamic. I’ll watch the story with the ridiculous robber himself more than once. However, I cannot agree with the previous comment from Kiwami, because I liked this pilot episode much less than Mira’s escape from the wedding last year. Too much is crammed into 23 minutes, which gives the impression of a dish cooked blindfolded. The experiment is interesting, but the result is far from perfect. Perhaps the local Kuwagata-Ohger (especially considering that his actor confuses the situation even more) and some details of Hoer's life should have been saved for later. However, I believe that Gozyuger will develop a smoother narrative going forward and I'm interested in learning more about Hoeru and the other rangers.Although, due to the strong similarity with Donbrothers and Decade, there are fears that we will never get all the answers in this show. In any case, I continue to watch with interest. Although next week I’ll probably miss the whole episode.
P.S. Poor Bundorio! He only came to life last week and then dies again.
P.P.S. It's a shame that the Sentai and Rider crossovers are on hiatus. GozyuWolf and Gavv are very similar and at the same time radically different, so their meeting and interaction would be very interesting.

At the same time, Tsutsumi, like Taiya, talks about the importance of achieving a dream. I'm sure this is just for the first episode, but I'm wondering what other interesting actor/senshi combinations this show will feature.

Why does everything need to be answered in the first episode? Sure the show doesn't explain everything in it but it presents all these bits and bobs as kind of an enticing way to get you interested.

Yes, I?m not asking that the show answer all the questions. It just seemed to me that in this case, it was not sure which of its ideas would attract the largest number of viewers, so it decided to show a little of everything. And where previous shows showed a small part of the big picture, Gozyuger provides a bunch of puzzle pieces. Yes, it's intriguing, but for me it's more of a trailer approach than a pilot episode. There are also fears that further novelty and uniqueness will disappear, but the mess will remain. It's not that something like this hasn't happened before. I prefer to prepare for the worst so that I will be less upset if my fears are confirmed and more happy if it turns out to be wrong.
P.S. And without going too deep into criticism, I?ll note that it would be cool if Ryu Saito (Boon Black) played the local Gao Red.

Not a bad start.

And it's a different take on the whole former rangers appearing so I welcome it.
Also, seeing how they don't have to reprise their role, I'm excited at what could happen throughout this year. Heck, if they can even get non-sentai alumni on board, more fun for me. Imagine Murakami who played Kusaka as a guest character who transforms as Red Hawk.

Also, this is what I wanted to add before someone else wrote it Hoeru is actually a deconstruction of the artistic image of the “lone wolf”. On the one hand, he fully corresponds to him: an invincible outsider, living by his own rules and not getting along well with the world around him. But on the other hand, a small amendment is made, namely that wolves are pack animals and the life of a lone wolf is the aimless existence of a loser, reduced only to the search for food. Which Hoeru directly confirms in the show! Very clever. I wonder if we should expect a similar approach to other team members? I'm sure there must be symbolism in the black unicorn.
