Wait, you can't name the episode that and not kill off KyouryuuGold. How confusing!

I guess this is where the Kagemusha thing falls apart. If NeoDeboss were like some major threat or if KyouryuuRed were some weakling that needed hiding away (instead of being a gary stu) maybe it'd make sense for KyouryuuGold to do what he did? But as it is now, it just seems overly complicated and nonsensical.

A few fun fight moments. Always good to see the return of the Breaster attack, if only for the name.

For some reason (I don't know why) I couldn't help but think back fondly to Shinkenger. It'd be nice to return to a Sentai series where it felt like there were some stakes. When was the last time a Sentai villain felt actually menacing and competent? Enter from Go-Busters?

Another enjoyable episode. I thought we were going to get a triple commander kill in a single episode, but no such luck.

Random observation: the mecha CGI is still bad/basic for the most part. However the closing shot of Brave Gigant Kyouryuujin is oddly good. I had to stop for a second and make sure it wasn't some kind of recolor of a suit shot of Gigant from the original series.

Agreed. Not that I have anything against the character, but I was just waiting for him to die. Walking off is not the "farewell" I was expecting.

Well it is Japan... (and I'll just stop there)

Oh I don't know. I'd argue that Emperor Zett from ToQger was extremely menacing, especially when he was in full-on kill mode.

I dunno. I'm not sure if I think of Zett as a bad guy. He always seemed misunderstood and moody. He'd probably just hang out with the Toqgers if the circumstances were different.

Did anyone else notice how red Juyong's eyes were? I don't know if it was due to irritation or exhaustion, but I found myself staring at them every time the camera focused on him.

I noticed as well. I figured it was meant to be intentional since he did just get the stuffing knocked out of him. But now you have me questioning that assumption...
