I dig the minor functionality shake-up in how Zox progresses through his forms. Based on how he used them this episode, Twokaiser is actually his ranged form, Ohran from is the hand-to-hand one, and Shinken form is the sword wielder.
Typically in most media (I've seen) characters start with either sword or hand-to-hand, but Zox however opens up with a ranged form and then chooses a close combat style depending on his opponent. It's a extremely insignificant detail, but I do like how it makes him feel more pragmatic. On an unrelated note, apparently Ohran form has an Egyptian(?) theme, I can't remember if there was any connection between the Ohrangers and Ancient Egypt, but apparently that's the premise of Ohran form. Supposedly Egyptian warriors wore a similar outfit to what the form wears: https://www.deviantart.com/iceravenb...rior-245823872 |

Zenkaigers to Zox: You got Gokaiger powers?!
Flint: Yeah, I bootlegged the design.

Well its not even that they bootlegged the Gokaiger design. It seems like they stole the geartlinger and zenkaiger technology, then proceeded to meet the three sentai teams that twokaiser is based off of, and then fanboyed over the Gokaigers and redesigned the suit.

A nice touch to film the fight with Ohren's powers by these particular walls. Anyway, episode was nice, though I did feel Zox's dances while changing forms were a bit too much. Like, a lot of the show boating was fun, but that was kind of the point where I felt they were pushing it. Went on for a bit too long without having much correlation to the forms themselves. That aside, it was a nice silly episode that had a ton of fun. The monster was incredibly odd, which is always nice. Curious about the Tojitendo plot and how Zox connects to it, so I'm excited moving forward.

Ever since the first official commercial video for TwoKaiser came out, I have felt like Zox and his crew are the cast of a completely different children's toku show from the Zenkaigers, and this episode feels like a special crossover between the two shows! Like, the vibes are really reminding me of the times the ToQgers and Gaim, or Ninningers and Drive got together for a week.
It certainly makes me interested in watching that show about the dancing pirate and his adventures with his family as they search for treasure, but it looks like their show was cancelled so they are going to be rolled together with the Zankaigers from now on. Anyhow, I hope they don't ever drop the transformation dances Twokaiser has to do. I want many instances of him just doing these entire routines in the background while everyone else is fighting or something. Last edited by FreshToku; 05-03-2021 at 04:42 AM.. |

Damn, I wasn't expecting Secchan to jumpscare me with his intro.
Zox saying "I'm hungry" is a reference to another of Marvelous' catchphrases. I guess suit design isn't the only thing they have in common, but they also build up large appetites from fighting. That catchphrase was my favorite thing about Marvelous so I love how Zox does it as well. We finally see Magine eating and I still don't understand it. So much for my headcanon. Ricky and Kattanar on the other hand are the most animated characters so far, with expressive mouths and eyes. Juran gets turned in to food again, this time as Zenkai Oh JuraGaon Mochi. I imagine he was having a frustrated reaction to that. What's the point of currency in Kaizokutopia? If everybody there's a pirate and there's no law against it so the only people available to pirate from are other pirates, why would anybody ever pay for anything?
