Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
When the first episode of Goseiger came out I watched it and was extremely turned off by it. Originally when I came to TV-N I promised that I would limit myself to Kamen Rider and Ultraman. Then I gave in and tried Shinkenger and instantly loved it. To be honest Goseiger just wasn't enough like Shinkenger for me.
But then last weekend I gave it a go again and realize how much I actually enjoy this show now that my expectations of "the next Shinkenger" have evaporated.
tl;dr
Goseiger is better if you WANT to like it.
Anyone else have anything to add?

Eh. People don't need to like Goseiger. They're very much welcome to not like it at all.
But it is what it is. We don't really need the same people making the same complaints week after week.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
Basically what was said on the first post. I wasn't expecting a second Shinkenger, exactly, but... it did not meet my expectations, whatever they were. I don't even remember what I was expecting, but I'd rather not, as the random Gosei spree I've been on today has been quite enjoyable and very much endeared me to the series.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
When I watched the first epic I was like: Yeah right...
Then I forced myself to finish the first epic.
I decided I also had to watch epic 2 before I decided if I liked it or not.
Now I completely LOVE it.
From bad to meh to better then good in 2 epics

"Oh yea? Come and get us!" one of the heroes said.

I'm not as impressed with it as I was with Shinkenger, but it's good in it's own right and in it's own way.
Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
At first, I could not get into it. I tried repeatedly, but just couldn't bring myself to care.
But I decided to give it one more go. Downloaded the HD Batch torrent, and just finished watching the first batch, and I have the say, I am now a fan.
Don't get me wrong, I don't really care for how they've been getting the Headders, but the characters are likable, and after a slow first couple of episodes (and Epic 7, which had to have been written under the influence of something) it has gotten really good, and I can't wait to see what happens in the next batch.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
I'm kind of the opposite of most people here. I saw the first episode of Goseiger and loved it. And I was a huge fan of it throughout.
That is, until Matorintis. The show just became less interesting after that. It's not a bad series by any means, but it went from good to meh in my opinion. I'm not quite sure why that is, but it's how I feel. Still, again, I don't think it's a bad series, just that ever since the Matorintis arc it's been very underwhelming. I still hold out hope that things will improve, and Goseiger vs. Shinkenger should be really awesome at least.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
It has fluctuated quite a bit for me. I think the episodes with debuts of any kind have been done well, but the episodes in between not so much.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
This my first super sentai show thing (unless you count power rangers, which I can barely remember) and overall I think it's pretty good. I've watched up to episode 24 - although I have to say I much preferred the Warstar to the Yuuma beasts, who have a habit of just being irritating. But yeah, the characters are likable, the action is enjoyable and although there have been a few crappy episodes (Epic 7 and the "keep cool without killing the environment" PSA stand out), overall I'm definitely having fun with it.

Re: Goseiger: Good, bad or meh?
Goseiger does get a little too silly for my tastes at times, but aside from that it's good.
