I lol'd at Hiroto getting burned. And what's more, him getting owned by a girl nearly a decade younger than him.

Sanae was just mean. Personally, I'd lock her up in a coffin if I wanted to. But it was nice seeing the two sisters talk like gangsters inside the van.

How will they get Taadiisu Ginjiro back?

This episode actually really bugged me. I don't know if it's part of some Japanese comedy convention, or what, but the fact that Sanae received no comeuppance whatsoever, either by being arrested for fencing a stolen vehicle or in the form of being confronted by an extremely angry sister in a giant robot, or whatever, really rubs me the wrong way.

I don't know, I thought it was kind of satisfying. No Hollywood ending, just a "life isn't fair" and "people don't change" life lesson XD

Also women turn men into zombies

- "We will use steadier methods to conquer the Human World" > You mean those that always fail? Yeah, steady methods of failure.
- Raising the global temperture... The Bankis really did their homework.
- Kiva doing "just correct" was... weird...
- Hiroto getting pulled off by Miu was kinda funny.
- Hanti??! What a weird nickname!
- LOL @ at 3 ancient Engines!
- LOL @ the three guys jumping outside the van! (around 8.26)
- Saki's disguise... I'm sure you can never spot a person wearing a pink veil!
- LOL @ Hiroto getting burned!
- "Sexual Harassment Suit?!" > HAHAHAAHAH! I bet someone complained the mammoth nose looks like a giant wang! HAHAHAH!
- My gosh, Saki's sister is sucha slut. She really ought to get spanked!
- Horonderthal really lives up to the name of a Neanderthal. I mean it looks like one!
- Heater Banki is a real funny guy! BBQ pit, hair dryer!

Spoiler
Oh my gosh... G12... That's like the highest number of mecha in a single combination! I thought Boukenger's 10-in-1 Ultimate DaiBouken was crazy enough...

I kinda hated this ep, saki's sister just annoyed me, everyones reaction annoyed me, even the ending was predicatable,

and who the hell gives the keys to your winabago to such an evil person that is intent on causing harm,

Miu controlling Hiroto still makes me chuckle

Damn, Saki's sister is a Bitch.
It must have been hell growing up with her, but Saki turned out great anyway.

And the guys becoming zombies over her was LoL, even the Simple minds of the Dino-Engins know a hot chick when they see one.

I did not get the "Sexual Harassment suit" part.

I like that this had a Non-Formulaic ending, and the fact Saki dropped both Hiroto and Miu with a blow to the gut to the same time XD.

This episode kinda made me question Saki's intelligence.
She grew up with her sister, yet she still couldn't tell she was putting up an act?

yeah...

Also the Dino engines and Horonderthal origins just makes me draw more parrelels between this series and Transformers. (those who read the marvel/DW/IDW comics will know what I mean.)
I may be lying

So the Dino-Engine's are Primus, and Horonderthal is Unicron?

Unfortunately, it is an iconic Japanese sensibility. Those of us who have grown up in western society (like me) have a really hard time accepting it. This type of comedy is based around a core Japanese cultural concept of gaman which can be translated as "show your spirit by enduring without complaint". It means that by working hard without challenging the status quo, you will gain results and respect. Gaman is a major frustration for westerners living in Japan.

Japanese game shows are one example of gaman. These shows are a weird mix of laughing at and laughing with the contestants who displaying gaman. It is like the German concept of schadenfreude except the viewers don't feel guilty for enjoying the misfortune of another. By suffering the huge embarassment of the ridiculous games, the contestants also garner the admiration from the audience for their determination.

You can also see gaman in the 1997 drama Seigi no Mikata. The drama was so popular that it was revived in a 2008 remake. The plot boils down to a devilish older sister tormenting her younger sister. Despite this abuse, the older sister's actions somehow result in good fortune for others. This results in people mistakenly labeling the older sister as an ally of justice. I watched the 2008 remake and was severely disappointed to find that none of the characters changed. The older sister was still a bully who never got her comeuppance while the younger sister was still a doormat. This episode of Go-Ongers was probably inspired by the 2008 remake.

Am i the only one who keeps expecting the taros to pop and and say whoops wrong train (granted i know it will never happen)

On another note this episode was pretty good i assume the guy that pop up out of the ground is the main baddy if hes just a motw ill be let down they built up to him a lot just to be killed off in one episode.
