There still might be Gobusters stuff in Dino Charge, the season finale seems like it went off the rails pretty bad.

In what way?

Ghost was kind of boring this week until Aran used the Nekrom Eyecon to posess Spectre and from there the whole episode suddenly got good.

If I have one hope right now, it's that Akari and Igor get to be SCIENCE rivals, and that Akari gets to legit try to one-up him and help fight against him with her own SCIENCE abilities.

Probably won't happen, but one can dream, yeah?

Has Ghost gotten really as bad to be compared to Wizard? Fourze and Drive were both pretty good, though, I agree.

Where did you stop at? Ghost really started to pick up once the Spectee arc started, and while it's not GREAT right now, it's certainly solid, and still has its awesome moments.

I wasn't really into Ryusei's poorly paced arc or the non-reason for keeping up his secret agent act, but man, his suit design, weapon system, belt voice, everything. His shenanigans after he finally revealed himself to the KRC crew were hilarious too.

Excuse me, but according to the Kamen Rider Wiki, his disco music is not ridiculous.

I'm wondering if there's going to be a sort of theme between the monsters or generals. Kyoryuger was apparently super layered in the amount of themes that the generals had with each other (suits of cards, the Wizard of Oz, and currencies to name a few). Kamen Rider does it more since there's fewer monsters in the series overall, but it's neat to see that in Sentai.

Currencies? I haven't heard that one. Can you explain?

Zyuohger's villians seems to be two main things right now: Video games is the overarching theme, but at least three of the bad guys are also based on minerals.

Then you have their mooks who are amoebas?

Overall it just feels that the mecha aspects to Go-Busters and Gokaiger were complete afterthoughts during development and writing to an extent not seen since Dairanger(and at least the ones from Dairanger look good), same with any of the multi mech combinations from Shikenger

You mean Go-Busters, where they went out of their way to make the mecha actually important to the series and not just something that shows up for two minutes at the end of every episode?

Also spending a lot of stuff to have simultaneous Giant robot and on the ground fights and do a lot unique camera work and shots just for the robot, like the buzzsaw zord cutting a big hole in the Ace's cockpit and the sun light streaming in.

It was the first Sentai to use outside sets for the robot fights too, wasn't it?

Fourze is a great series that unfortunately has a few missteps along the way.

It's worth watching for Gentarou alone because he's such a fantastic main character. He's definitely one of my all-time favorite Riders.

Yeah, I'm going to echo the sentiments about Wizard. Wizard is bad and boring, so skip it. I really liked Gaim, but it stumbles over its end. Drive is really good and for me, on par with Double.

Wizard is bad and awful and a waste of great potential, but it's at least worth watching the very first episode and maybe Beast's debut, just to get an idea of what the show set up before completely throwing it away.
