ZyuRanger 09 released
So some main story plot stuff is trickled into this episode.
Man, the creators of Sentai sure were on crack back in the day, weren't they?

Re: ZyuRanger 09 released
To be fair, I think the group nerd making the flying car is a more feasible excuse than a dino prince and his servants having it.
I always like how the extras have the ability to combat the MOTW special power.

Everyone should have monsters that ring the doorbell before storming into your house. It's just common politeness.

Re: ZyuRanger 09 released
While I find that Zyuranger has some of the best filler episodes among all sentai, I really enjoy episodes like these with central plot.
Even Prince Euro is a child, which reflects one of the themes of this sentai (children) really well.
Daizyujin is awesome as always, not only because it actually grabbed the falling Emiko and because it won against Dora Cockatrice, but also because for the FIRST time in sentai the main robo is "alive", interacting not only with the heroes but also with everyone revolving around them.
Bandora is Bandora and I need say no more about her.
Really looking forward to the next episode (oh yeah this episode was nice because it's a decent two parter story). Keep it up guys, up to now you are doing a wonderful job!
Oh and as for Delos Island, it's based on the real Greek island of Delos (Δήλος) in the Κυκλάδες, which is where Apollo, and his sister Artemis, were supposedly born.

Re: ZyuRanger 09 released
I think my intelligence dropped after watching that episode. This series kills me.
The little girl opening the door after having a car appear in their living room, only to find Golems and then the Zyurangers on the other side is just...ridiculous. I know that's the point of the gag, but it just makes me groan.
Later, doesn’t Geki say they were going to split up to search? How is driving one right after the other splitting up?

Okay, who halucinated the weird fight in the appartment?
I know that a beetle isn't that big, but how does a bug fit in a Japanese appartment without breaking furnuture. Ah well, that is Sentai logic for you.
I never noticed that the cockatrice had a hat.

True enough, though the original Beetle isn't actually all that small.Niek wrote: I know that a beetle isn't that big, but how does a bug fit in a Japanese appartment without breaking furnuture. Ah well, that is Sentai logic for you.
Do you consider the 2003-present Prius small? In terms of wheelbase length, they're about the same. I know the Prius isn't exactly huge either, but compared to some other more modern offerings (like the Suzuki Swift/Geo Metro, Smart Fortwo, and Chevrolet Aveo), the Beetle is hardly small.
The reason most people (especially Americans) think of the Beetle as small is that when it was introduced, most cars were a lot bigger than they are today, and much, much bigger than the Beetle.
I'm about 6'5", but I once owned and drove a Beetle quite comfortably. They're actually much roomier on the inside than the compacts of today because they don't have as much paneling.

Re: ZyuRanger 09 released
Very quirky episode, i'm surprised they didn't give Dora Cockatrice they ability to turn people to stone like in the legends, I guess that would be going to far in a kids show.

Not really, since they were turning people to stone in the episodes where the heroes retrieved the Legendary Weapons. Now that I think about it, maybe that's why they didn't give Dora Cockatrice that ability? They'd already done it a couple of episodes ago.
