MegaRanger 50 released

Post by takenoko »

So the big episode 5-0. Yugande and Shiborena do as much damage as they can in their suicide runs.

I'm kind of glad that the MegaRangers dealing with their identities being revealed is such a short arc. It's a good topic, but I think the douchey townspeople gets pretty heavy handed and repetitive by the next episode.

Still, it's a good theme for a show about teenagers. Learning to deal with how other people perceive you is a lesson that is vital at any age. But you really start to feel aware of others when you become a teen.

I'll miss Yugande and Shiborena. Their dynamic was always nice since it's obvious that Dr. Hinelar cared for both of them, and that relationship was reciprocated.

Penultimate!

I love the scene where Kubota and the rest of the INET crew pilot the mechas to save Yuusaku.

Actually, I pretty much love any scene with Kubota.

That one mother was one second "Save me, MegaRangers! Oh please save me from the monsters!" and the next second, "Stop making us part of your battles even though you just save me from the monsters!" I wished her kid would just slap her for thinking that way. You can't have it both ways. If you don't want them, then you shouldn't asking them to save you.

So long, Delta Mega. We hardly knew ye.

Also, I guess Yugande and Shiborena died as well. But they're not nearly as important as a soulless robo. :P

Agreed. He's a hard-ass but ultimately caring mentor. You don't see that these days. Troll-Grandpa is a hard-ass, but he's also a troll.

Well if you follow the mother's train of thought then the MegaRangers have an obligation to save them since they started the problem in the first place. So it's entirely reasonable (though very short-sighted) to want them to save the day and then get the hell out of Dodge so that the enemy doesn't do this again.

I dunno, isn't the mother's thinking some kind of fallacy in reasoning? Just because the MegaRangers are associated with the Nejirejia invasion doesn't mean they caused it. It's sort of like wanting to have your cake while eating it too. Sure, they save the day this time. But if she wanted the MegaRangers gone for good, that'll just mean the invasion will occur without anyone around to stop them.

Good timing on linking the violin rendition of the MegaRanger theme, BTW. It's very fitting since this episode also uses a great orchestral arrangement: Mars, the Bringer of War.:)
