![]() It doesn’t stray very far from the typical formula. And this checks all the boxes: having Red and the sixth getting the most focus, Red getting power-ups, big robot combinations, (Dino Sentai specific) having an important character die. I know we all enjoy when Sentai breaks its standard tropes, but you have to establish what your tropes are before you can break them. And that does make sense, as this series was supposed to be a ratings grab season to bring in new fans. The Good: This is a very trope heavy series, with both the goods and bads that come with that. Ryusoulger does have some issues, but I feel like they were ballooned out of proportion to the point that the shadow they cast prevented people from seeing some very positive things this series had to offer. I’d come off episodes feeling good, listen to what other people were saying, and suddenly my opinion would lessen. Now, I didn’t stop because I thought their opinions were invalid, or because I was mad, but because hearing all that criticism was negatively impacting my opinions. Well, for the first half of this series’ run, most of the people I talked to did not like this series, to the point that I stopped talking to people about it. And there are some people who read that and question what I’m talking about because they either love the series or think it’s terrible. Controversial take: I think this is a good series.
