While Taka is still annoying, Kyuuemon has actually made him look better by comparison, since he's such a try-hard the other villains never get to do anything anymore.

I still think Toqger was better at handling the 'Red is the best at everything' phase we're in now, since even if Right was a fair amount of the time, the show seemed to take the piss out of him more sincerely than Ninninger does Taka. Plus he wasn't just the hotblooded idiot trope played straight as an arrow.

Brother Entropy posted:The Gaim/Kikaider crossover had Ryouma putting his brain in an evil robot just for shits and giggles and that alone kinda makes it all worth it And then seemed to think he had the moral high ground to call them evil after doing that turned out to have side effects.

That Genma was definitely meant to evoke Tesla, just like the Musashi Eyecon's first opponent was meant to be Sasaki.

I remember when the opinion on Zyuranger was that it was mediocre based on a few people who understood Japanese. Then it got subbed and oh, it's actually really good.

Serious Frolicking posted:Huh, there are a bunch of rider shows I haven't seen, but a cowardly lead is new to me. I kinda liked that Takeru actually got scared of Spectre. It's something different from usual, and it makes sense, since he's basically stealing the things Takeru needs to not die. It definitely won't last but it was a good character moment.

T.G. Xarbala posted:Yeah, Ichijou was vital in a lot of ways and it's pretty clear that early on G3/Hikawa was modeled after him. At least before Hikawa slipped more comfortably into a comic relief role. My favorite Hikawa moment was when he showed up to the final battle, went "Oh, so you're the one behind all those murders!" and then shot the poo poo out of him with the gatling gun.

Kyuuemon secretly being related to Gengetsu all along!! really does make him less interesting, since there is absolutely nothing interesting about Gengetsu at all.

jivjov posted:Ninninger has just really been a wet fart of a season for me. We're, what, 2 or 3 episodes from the end and it FINALLY feels like plot has been happening for the last handful? Masakage is probably one of the worst Sentai villains I've ever seen. You get Frieza's voice actor and use him for such a pointless character?

GuyUpNorth posted:One miniboss per episode and maybe two for Gengetsu himself - possibly grandpa fades/disappears/dies/whatever and Last Nintality passes onto Dadninger as the power-up to actually take out the big guy. It's not horrible ending if it goes like that, but very obvious and formulaic. I would be very surprised if Kyuuemon isn't the final boss at this point. But I also wouldn't put it past this show to not do that after setting it up all season.

Comparing a cyborg character who presumably doesn't fall prey to old age to the Dark Knight Returns doesn't really fit.

Akashi from Boukenger is my favorite Red partly because they seemed to want to make him the most skilled and experienced member of the team without being overbearing about it. He's not a shouty hot-blooded character, he's mature, and often serves as a kind of mentor figure himself. I can understand why they haven't done another Red like him, though, since that's really because he developed the most as a character before the series.

The best thing about the Aquarius episodes was the supposed rear end in a top hat astronaut she was mad about getting to go into space ahead of her dad looked like Mike Nelson from MST3K. Other than that it was just awful.

OnimaruXLR posted:I never really got this take. Time Force is basically Timeranger with less of an edge, but SPD never really delivered on the "It's a cop show! But Power Rangers" vibe that Deka thrived on It didn't help that they tried to make the main villain this galactic conqueror type, but then they also kept in the arms dealer villain from Dekaranger who was their main villain. So you have this guy who supposedly controls whole planets, but then his whole army are the robotic grunts that every common criminal uses.

So evidently Goldar is called that in the movie because he's just literally made out of gold. I get the idea there, since her minions are made out of clay the important guy is forged from a more valuable substance, but it just makes the toy at least look like it wasn't painted.
