ZyuRanger 22 released

Post by Slowking »

Wiki: http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/ZyuRanger_22

And this is the conclusion to this arc.

The scene with the ZyuRanger running towards the Guardian Beasts, shouting their names, is adorable (also the opposite of the scene at the end of 20 when the Guardian Beasts were disappearing). 22 episodes in and the Guardian Beasts certainly feel distinct characters full of life, even if they do not talk.

The healing in the magma does make sense, considering DaiZyuJin's energy source are Gaiatrons from the Sun, but last time it seemed as if DaiZyuJin was beaten down and just disappeared in the ground. Unless somehow DaiZyuJin came up with the magma healing plan at the last minute.

The parallel fight between men and beasts, ZyuRanger and Guardian Beasts, i.e. that of Geki vs. Burai and Tyrannosaurus vs. Dragon Caesar was awesome. Some treasure scenes with Burai using his ZyuSouKen to activate his Dragon Shield and Geki throwing his Ryuugekiken.

The henshin and roll call was amazing too, and remains one of my favourite sentai roll calls.

GouRyuJin? Usually new items/formations appear when they are in a pinch, so this refreshing for a change.

Who are you Clotho? You honestly have to feel for Burai. Just over a day to live, he's forced to stay in a room to prevent his time being eaten up and he has to deal with Clotho whom he doesn't really know.

Gaiatrons, what a totally hippy thing to make up. Just what you'd expect from Japan. Captain Planet was in 1990, probably a total ripoff of that XD

Gaia comes from the classical greek word γαῖα, which means earth. You also have Mother Goddess Γαῖα.

So it's kind of neat that 1) DaiZyuJin's power source are Gaiatrons, something natural and 2) DaiZyuJin heals deep in the earth (although in magma).

Probably though they just got the idea of Gaia from Captain Planet, as you said. XD

Heh, I totally thought "blatant toy CM" when that came up. I mean, it's not as bad as Mmpr's take on the scene (there's certainly more emotional pull in Zyu's case) but, it's still pretty odd either way.

Gaiatrons sound like a lost race of Transformers than a particle. Now Burai finally questions why he has only 25 hours left to live. I have a feeling we never going to get an answer why Burai has a very short lifespan.
