I suppose they wanted to make the standard "gun/sword" of the series to have a little more importance or power so that's probably why they have the Engine Souls inserted into the MantanGuns. Besides, they also put the souls into the Highway Buster after the Go-on Gear items are combined, so I think that's enough.

As for the episode, I enjoyed it. It was pretty fun, there's something about Green that I really like and I'm not sure why, since I feel like he should be really annoying, but isn't to me. He's very young, but Birca is right: he definitely has a fiery spirit. I like both of the new Engines too, I like Birca's look and Gunpherd's personality. Should be interesting to see their capabilities in the future.

Are we forgetting that Kiva has also shown sword and gun forms? And in Abraranger (whatever became Dino Thunder) one of the zords became a second drill, used in a combined attack in the first.

Also can't you drawn comparisons between Gunpei and Hanto, and Rio and Mele, both Black and Green, both black is more dominant, both sorta not quite core rangers

...Okay...let's compare, then.

Rio and Mele weren't "sorta not quite core rangers," they were the main bad guys
Spoiler
up until the last two episodes, and then they died.


And I would argue that Hanto and Gunpei are core rangers, even though they joined the fray a couple episodes late. They were in the theme song before they became rangers, after all.

Also, they're not romantically involved...

But wouldn't it be just plain wacky if they were?

A thought: has anybody else thought that BearRV looks nothing like an RV? I think she resembles an ATV more, myself.

Gunpherd was treating Gunpei like Hoji did Ban.

Lol at Birca's "multi-ethnicism".

Damn, why did Kegareshia have to be a machine trapped in a hot chicks body!?

It seriously begs the question of why she's named RV, then.

Maybe for the same reason the Basilisk from Geki looked like a turtle?

It's because RV doesn't mean the same thing in Japanese. What one refers to in English as a RV is what the Japanese call a "camping car".

Apparently Japan wasn't familiar with cars where one can sleep in them, so they took a term from America and misappropriated it. So the Japanese refer to SUV's as RVs.

I guess it got something to do with Four Celestial Animals? In some information I have read, actually it's states that the Dark Warrior (turtle) have the snake twining around the Dark Warrior’s body.

Dunno. Maybe the name just sound cool.
For some reason, I have always thought that Basilisk is a popular name for a turtle. O.o I felt like I have saw that name somewhere before for a turtle.
