See I feel Secondary Rider debates have a legit place in conversation because of how often the creators play with that formula. For Sentai it really shouldn't be a big deal since it's all about "Who eventually joins later". And that categorization shouldn't be hindered by how many Rangers there are before & after their arrival.

Ex: Jungle Fury/Gekiranger. Even though the team as a whole ends on only 5 main Rangers Rhino/GekiChopper & Wolf/GekiViolet should count as Extra Rangers along the likes of Ninja Storm Green/Shurikenger, Quantum Ranger/TimeFire, etc. Just because the later two are literally #6 on their roster doesn't mean we should categorize them differently. They all served the same purpose in the end.

So I think any Ranger not originally on the team from the start should always be counted as an "Extra Ranger" & not have designations based on the actual numbers of the team.

Sorry if I went on too long. 😅

Well I’ve been watching Go-Busters’ Christmas episode and I know there’s a “What are you watching thread” for this sort of thing, but I feel like venting my thoughts and feelings somewhere they’re more likely to be read.

So the climactic showdown with Messiah - it did nothing for me. It’s just a retread of the same climactic battle we had 14 episodes ago. And the show’s been doing a lot better since we got rid of Messiah, so I don’t think bringing him back was all that necessary, since the Busters already got closure on their parents.

Ene-tan returning was a nice touch - or it would’ve been if they hadn’t just reused the fight footage from the movie. And it really stands out since that fight is clearly at day, while the rest of the battle is at dusk.

Messiah Reboot: It’s a nice suit, but I have to wonder who’s idea was to make it dark red against a night backdrop. Kind of makes it hard to see. Not to mention making it huge compared to Go-Buster King - I actually dig that choice, since Go-Buster King is the largest of the Tokumei Gattais, which sells how imposing this thing is.

I guess the thing with the orphanage lady was meant to be heartfelt, but that subplot got so little focus that it just seems like an odd big lipped alligator moment. It’s telling I got more emotional investment out of this actress when she was BoukenBlue’s cat, Asumu’s partner in crime at Dekaranger and Koguma Skyblue’s ghost mother.

Also they didn’t really answer one thing from the last episode: how was Hiromu able to use the Lio Blaster while Jin was piloting Tategami Li-Oh?

I'm not sure what brought this on, but I randomly felt the urge to listen to some Ryusoulger music for the first time in a while today, and can't believe I forgot what an absolute jam Tagire! Ryusoulger is.

Plus, it always reminds me of this visual from episode 37, which makes me unreasonably happy in ways I can't explain:

It's a knight riding a mechanical dinosaur. What's there to explain? 🤣

Does it bother anybody else that Kiramei Green's thighs get significantly thinner when she gets into her suit?

Not sure if this is the proper place to post, but considering that next year is 45th anniversary and Gokaiger's 10th anniversary, and with Yui Koike properly returning to showbiz, we might get a Gokaiger 10 Years After or something. The hard part I guess, is getting everyone available abd ironically Mao Ichimichi might be the hardest because she has such a busy schedule, she did film her scenes in Super Sentai Strongest Battle in just one day because of her schedule.

Well, since a guy I follow on YouTube is celebrating his 10th anniversary on the site (and his 30th birthday) He’s posted a video. And since the initial views are disappointing, if his comment is anything to go by, I’m sharing it here in the hope you’ll watch it.

It’s a compilation of Sixth Ranger henshin items (note that he considers GekiChopper to be an AbareKiller situation)

How is Kiramager for everyone so far? Yay? Nay? In between?

I’m in between. My good will to Juru has pretty much worn down after a lot of thinking about it. And the Go Kiramager Power-up is basically bringing back everything I hate to see in a Sentai Power-up.
