Another new form? I feel like we've been on a form train for the last 3 months now. Every second episode (if not sooner) has been a new form for someone, be it Dino Gotchard, Bad Future Gotchard, Jet-Assisted Take-Off Gotchard, Dread, Valvarad, Majade, etc. I appreciate that the forms are all visual...

As the penultimate episode of the series, I was expecting a strong entry. Even then, I have to admit that King-Ohger is still zig-zagging my expectations in some ways. I certainly didn't have "Cameo, The Episode" on my bingo card. After most everyone got their ass kicked in some fashion la...

It might just be me but there is one thing I wanted to mention: moving forward or back in the episode used to be completely smooth, but now there is a noticeable delay (sometimes not much but sometimes it's a few seconds). I tend to go back if I didn't finish reading a line, and sometimes I'll go b...

On the plus side, it means there was more care put into blending and compositing; there is much less artifacting here than most King-Ohger episodes. And more of an effort was put into using physical props within the virtual set, rather than making the backgrounds do most of the heavy lifting. Still...

Finally getting a chance to write a few notes on this one. Though at this point i think everyone has already hit the high points. And the low points. Above all else, this was a very different movie from the usual standard Sentai fare. Normally we get something massively bombastic to justify a theatr...

I always forget just how merciless Toei is. The moment the series is done, everything gets tossed.

How are they gonna fit the entire population of the planet in the ship? Although based on this scene, it seems to be a few hundred people at most. We've never had a good look at the total population since they can't hire enough actors (let alone fit them on the virtual set). But between the castle ...

Wow, they were rather quick to license it. Zero-One took over a year, IIRC.

Looks like Kurogane's parents were in their 40s when they died? . I always forget if NE is an actual abbreviation or a made up thing for Toei's weird parallel worlds 50s, even, in the case of the father. With those dates, he's a bona fide boomer; and his wife is just barely a Gen Xer. This is all f...

The endgame arcs of most Sentai series tend to be a blast, and King-Ohger is certainly delivering on that - in more ways than one. Coming off of the heels of last week's fantastic episode, this one keeps up the energy. Though with last week giving each of the rulers a chance to shine, this week they...

It's weird, but the more I think about it, the more I like King-Ohger in hind sight It had a lot of ambition to tell a big story. Which is refreshing coming from DonBros (chaos writing) and ZenKai (nostalgic mess). Unfortunately, it has spent a lot of time struggling to tell that story, but there a...

I for one immensely enjoyed this episode. It's probably going to end up in my all-time top Sentai episode list once this series is said and done. King-Ohger had some very lofty ambitions from the very start of the series. And while the whole virtual production aspect is by and large a failure, in my...

BTW, what is going on with the chapter markers for recent releases? They were in last week, but gone this week. Is this another technical matter we need to figure out? Eh? I forgot them like a few weeks ago, but this week and last week should have chapters. I don't do it for Garo, but mostly becaus...

I have been surprised by just how much this series has been using Atropos. Besides the acting limits of a 9 year old, kids aren't known for having flexible working hours. I really expected she'd be a side-show to the other two sisters - the one who hangs back and gives orders. Though with her gettin...

I liked this episode. But it does get dragged down a bit by indulging itself in some of King-Ohger's bad habits. It's been a while since the retainers/assistants/aides/minions have received much of a focus. After they tried to kill their masters a good 15 or so episodes ago, that's kind of been it. ...
