I liked him when he wasn't a god
a) Racism and sexism?....LMAO!!!!!. Takeru was the LORD, it was the job of all 4 members to obey him, not just the women. Racism?, really? Did they call eachother slant eye or something?.
b) Takeru was the most important character of the series. Did you not understand the part of him being Lord?.
c) Every Sentai series has a plot drag at one point, this is nothing new.
d) Takeru as a cat is an issue... but you liked Go-Onger?. That's like me being a fan of Obama but disliking terrorism.
a) The Richard Brown episode was a prime example of the Japanese "lol foreigner" mentality. I'm not going to talk about the sexism angle again - I think I've made more than enough posts about Mako
b) Of the series, yes. Of the entire franchise, no and yet people go on and on about him as if no Red before or since could ever live up to him.
c) It doesn't have to go on for a dozen or more episodes
d) Go-onger didn't pretend to be a serious show. Shinkenger wanted to make out that it was far superior to any other Sentai because it had OMG PLOT AND CHARACTERIZATION ... then they pull the cat episode
