I know, I know. Kirins are mythical chimeras that are more like horned dragon headed deer/horse. I was half joking when I said that, just didn't bother to explain it. So I said "kinda" because Chinese culture sometimes associates qilins with lions (and sometimes with lion parts), the imagery is closer to a lion's, and Dairanger is based around Chinese stuff (yes, I know SeiKirin looks like the unicorn deer Japanese kirin instead). Just blabbing out loud about them shoehorning a qilin as lion-based, but point being they have enough felines to replace KirinRanger anyway.

Curiously though, pink wasn't always a girly color. Or at least according to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink, "An article in the trade publication Earnshaw's Infants' Department in June 1918 said: "The generally accepted rule is pink for the boys, and blue for the girls. The reason is that pink, being a more decided and stronger color, is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl." From then until the 1940s, pink was considered appropriate for boys because being related to red it was the more masculine and decided color, while blue was considered appropriate for girls because it was the more delicate and dainty color, or related to the Virgin Mary. Since the 1940s, the societal norm was inverted; pink became considered appropriate for girls and blue appropriate for boys, a practice that has continued into the 21st century."

Hmmm...

Heh, this entire conversation reminds me of this article that's been in the back of my mind:
In Japan, pink isn't always a feminine color. Cherry blossoms, which are pink, are macho—hence why Japanese gangsters get them tattooed on their bodies.

I dont mind about all-pink changes, that will serve as a message "Pirates are badass, we dont care about what people think".

But clearly, no Decade.

Lunagel is a girl.....

I'm sure they'll do an All-Pink, it seems to be the theme right now. They did All-Silver, All-Green, All-Yellow.... It seems like they are doing All-Color finishers with the attacks going into eachother.

I'm sure in either the second to last episode or the last episode they will All-Red again, maybe All-Red twice and start using Red Only Finisher moves all on the Emperor. That will be badass.

I guess it could be "god" non-gender specific.

I mean, who knows, divines could be anything.

What I really enjoyed the most actually was the small remark that Joe made: "You really can do anything, huh?"

Good episode would've liked to see a bit more interaction between Battle Kenya and the team, also disappointed that Gai's power has been mostly forgotten about until this episode and probably won't be brought up again. He has the power to combine keys there's some interesting stuff that could be done with that.
