I think the main point of Hina is that she's Shingo's sister. In the beginning Eiji just wanted to save Shingo because it was the right thing to do, but in becoming friends with Hina he now had a more personal reason. As he gradually grew closer to Ankh, getting Shingo back became less a matter of r...

First, it shows off Gotou's MASSSIVE character development, from the guy who tried to kill-steal with a rocket launcher to the guy who puts his own body on the line to let OOO deliver the killing blow. Well... >>> MASSSIVE character development, eh. He used to employ that kind of kill-steal tactic ...

Length aside, I really loved how the Kazari fight played out. Yes, abandoning the numbers advantage by betraying his fellow Greeed was a dumb move, but it was exactly the kind of move you'd expect from Kazari (after all, he was the reason the original four-greeed-band broke up in the first place). F...

Akashi was great as always, but I really like the respect they gave Ryuoun as a formidable opponent. I think he may be the first villain to survive a Final Wave, and repeating the feat at giant size against Gokai Magi Bind just further establishes him as a badass. It really helps to give him a diffe...

I was really surprised that Eiji was able to destroy medals. I guess the Purple combo has that much power. When it goes out of control. It's weird that Ankh would use Shingo's form. You'd think he despise being human. I'm confused. If he could create this fake form of Shingo. Why did he float aroun...

You guys are missing the most obvious point! Ankh is Fire-type and PuToTyra is Ice-type, it's only natural Ankh would have an advantage.

What's next? The need to sleep? Sensation of temperature? Ability to talk?

Was that a Tales of Symphonia reference? 'Cause if so then you are officially my hero.

I'm a bit torn about Date's fate. On one hand I love the character and am glad that he's still around, his fake-out death just serves to remind me that Toei doesn't have the guts to kill off a rider anymore. I suppose I could accept it better if I knew that his survival led to him appearing more, ei...

Honestly I'm not sure that Ankh meant to screw over Eiji with TaJaDoru. Sure fire vs. fire is a bad matchup, but using flying combo against a flying enemy just makes sense. If Ankh really wanted to handicap Eiji he could have given him a completely random combo like Shark-Gorilla-Cheetah, or simply ...

I really like the way they've been using the suit changes: use the gun-based Dekarangers to shoot down projectiles, counterattack with the speedy Hurricangers, then finish it off with a custom combo involving magic, hand-to-hand, and swordfighting. It really shows off how this is an actual sentai te...

Weird, I liked Smart Lady. Nothing wrong with a character that's just there to be cute and inject some light-heartedness in an otherwise grim and serious series Anyway, I meant to comment on how cliche the one wing thing was. I mean, you have it in Precure and Final Fantasy. Considering that Ankh i...

There's a line of OOO action figures out there where you can switch around the body parts to form all the different combos, and the 'plug' is the button you press to split apart the figure. So my guess is that they leave it on for the sake of the toys.

Interesting that his last two header's have their names spearheaded and actually pronounced out, wonder if that's a little homage to OOO's forms besides being bad puns on film franchises, unless that's how the Japanese actually say the franchise names. The names are split up based on the number of ...

In episode 17 Uva used a single medal to produce a Yummy that split into two Yummies of equal strength, so the whole '1 Medal = 1 Yummy' logic just went straight out the window.

Here's a thought... Maybe the Yummy's new abilities aren't because of the host but because of Uva himself. It was just last episode he started collecting the cores of other Greed, maybe in doing so his own Yummy began to take on the properties of the other Greed's i.e. Mezool's ability to spawn mult...
