Scroll 47: Seal and Space Union
Bad news folks. Due to real-life behind the scenes difficulties, there will be no pictures this time. I won’t go into details, but I do have pictures: I simply can’t upload them at present. So I’ll edit them in as soon as I can. But for now, this will be another text-only review. To make up for it, I’ll be doing updated re-reviews for episodes 1 and 8 on the main Sentai watch thread (since I was never happy with my initial reviews). But anyway, this is a Shin Yoshida episode, so onto the review.
We open with the Heroes doing battle with Dezargi (last seen in episode 44), who has the advantage over them, even in TenraiSenpuujin. Sandaaru tells them they can get out of this mess if they hand over the Nageki no Yumi medal, but they refuse. Eventually, Dezargi wins and gets pulled back.
At the Centipede, Satarakura and the girls are concerned that they’re becoming redundant, but Sandaaru assures them that they’re all working towards the same goal, so he does value them, especially when Satarakura and Furabijo kiss up to him (leading to a wordplay sight gag where they wear kitsune masks). Sandaaru then asks for the Ikari no Ya medal from Tau Zant for his next plan, to which he is obliged.
At Ninja Base, Madame Gozen announces her intent to form the Space Union Ninja Style in order to increase eveyone’s powers by bringing them together as one (which as Nanami points out, was last brought up in episode 23). Despite Shurikenger pleading against it, and trying to appeal to “
Mister Mugensai
” (sorry, but I’m keeping the nickname I’ve been using since the start of this thread) for help, Gozen asks everyone what they know so she can begin training them. Since they’re all only second years, they don’t know that many techniques (Ikkou and Isshu boast to know 51 techniques), which causes her to dismiss them. Yosuke angrily points out that this isn’t the Sengoku era anymore and that things have changed… which causes Gozen to storm out of her room, with Shurikenger admonishing Yosuke for saying that. As everyone agrees that Yosuke went too far and they should give her idea a shot, Shurikenger returns to declare that she’s gone.
It turns out that Gozen has turned herself into a ghost and is wandering the streets of Tokyo, taking in how much has changed in 500 years. Overwhelmed, she travels to a temple on a hill, which Sandaaru picks up by using the Ikari no Ya medal as a radar. The Hurricanegers and Gouraigers soon find her at a castle with a 500 year-old tree, which she explains is the place where she grew up. Her father (played by Sargain’s actor in a face role) planted a tree on the site to symbolise how much she meant to him (she was also apparently a prodigy at everything, but since it’s the servants saying this, I imagine they were throwing everything). But then, the temple was attacked by bandits and she was the only survivor, thus leaving the tree as the one thing she had to protect. She has to prevent herself from crying, or the seal will break, hence she hasn’t made any friends for 500 years.
Then Dezargi appears, with Senpuujin and Gouraijin going into battle (while Hamster Headmaster and Oboro cry about the situation). At the two Giants struggle, Sandaaru leaps in and forces Gozen to face him. She manages to defend herself with the power of the medal, but when a stray shot from the giant battle destroys the tree, she sheds a tear… which causes her powers to fade. Luckily, Shurikenger manages to fend Sandaaru off, and, after a cool sequence where Senpuujin blocks another stray shot from Dezargi (cool because it manages to not look incredibly fake). Everyone’s desire not to give up shows Gozen that both the Hayate and Ikazuchi ninjas have their essentials down pat. Thus, she joins Shurikenger in Tenkuujin, combining the three into TenraiSenpuujin and channeling all her power into the robot for the Uchuu Toitsu Ninja-Ryu Ougi: Ultima Storm Maximum: a stronger, gold-coloured version of Ultima Storm that breaks through the feathers of Dezargi, destroying him. But Sandaaru isn’t worried, since he’s discovered what he wants to know. On the ground, Gozen brushes off the apologies for the tree’s destruction, acknowledging everyone’s determination and vowing to defeat Jakanja.
Uchuu Ninja File: First Spear, Furabijo: She was scouted by Lord Tau on Space Central Street.
Next time: The heroes face their evil copies while Gozen faces Madogi. This and more on “Scroll 48: Trap and Eternal Life”.
Sandaaru: The Nageki no Yumi medal… in my hand.
Final thoughts: This episode gives us a fairly good look at Madame Gozen as a character, which could be easily bungled, considering that she’s a late addition to the story. But she actually does feel like someone we’ve known since the start after this episode. And it had a fairly good moral about change and determination to go with it.
