And Gaoranger is done!
My final thoughts on 43-51: Overall this was really good. There were some slow episodes from 44-46 but that was the worst of it. These episode focused on Yabaiba being the last Org after the deaths of TsueTsue and Rasetsu. They were funny to an extent but also quite pointless. Now when Yabaiba revived TsueTsue that was cool! Of course they had to ruin it by reviving the the 3 Highness Dukes as well. Who then magically made TsueTsue a witch (wasn't she one already?) and then they started listening to her commands left and right because she was the witch. I'd predicted for some time that the 3 highnesses would be fused into one org so that was satisfying even if the Senki suit itself just looked like a spare Yabaiba costume on steroids. These are my thoughts on the final 2 episodes and are totally spoilered. Don't read if you want the fantastic ending ruined! WOW. The deaths of the Power Animals, of Sky Island, and GaoGod. Just wow. I never expected them to actually die. For the Gaorangers to be so utterly beaten. I know that it only lasted for the better part of an episode but it was brutal to watch them all lose their Animals and to watch GaoGod die in Silvers' arms Quest 51 was also brilliant. Having only one sword to defend themselves the rangers fought a horde of Orgettes to get to Senki. When their attack failed they finally discarded their colors and used their civilian names. They were ready to fight with their lives and so they created a miracle. They awakened the rest of the power animals they'd never found and the ones that had died came back to life and restored their powers. Simplay amazing. Now they truly are the Hyakuju (100 Beast) Sentai. AND they defeated Senki while he was giant without being in their mecha. They wasted him with their beast blades and the Hyakujuken. Overall I love this series to death. It had some fantastic villains (TsueTsue, Yabaiba, & Rouki) and a team of 6 awesome rangers. The mecha are brilliant too, tons of possibilities. I think when Toei said they wanted to get back to having strong and super powerful sentai with Kyoryuger they were referencing Gaoranger. My only qualm might be that Silver never joins the team properly. He's off on his own for the better part of his appearances but he's still an awesome character. I love you Gaoranger. Gao Soul Forever!

More Deka!
Recently, they just got their SWAT mode. The more recent stream of episodes have been kind of blah. Tetsu's background was nice, but that aside, there really wasn't much notable episodes since Tetsu's introduction. Anyway, I do like the lack of Igaroid spam. Makes them a lasting credible threat and not just target practice like the blue heads (I really don't remember the Deka name for them).

Shinkenger 20. You know, with 4/5ths of the first 5 characters considering going rogue to save Kotoha, it's pretty inappropriate to have the plot progress when a new Origami(made by Genta no less!) shows up.

SWAT has one of the best power up insert themes.

To be fair, there's not that many(off the top of my head, I think 5?).

DekaSwan makes her appearance!
That's all I really got. Not much else happened Though, quick question. How did they lose their power during the events of Gokaiger? Did the nanometal just ignore the license or something?

ok, so finishing up Gokager finally...I have to say have enjoyed this trip. Sure, a lot of it was just gimmick filler...but there was some nice development. Now the Mecha...no connection at all to it. They could have blown up the Galleon and I could have cared less...but the build up to the fights main character fights...oh yeah...good times, especially Basco.
In my binge, I did watch the vs Goseiger movie, and I did enjoy it was actually VS them for a bit...that and when they turned to Dynaman at the start they used the flashy entrance as an actually attack lol... |
