June Tokusatsu of the Month - B-Fighter Kabuto

So, in 35 we get background, the team all together, they've counted Za Medals and enter the Giant Mecha to mop the floor with the Crushers. Not a bad episode especially for a New toy introducing one.
 
I think Beezack is pretty cool, he seems like a glorious bastard. The others are sort of just there and don't have much of a personality as of episode 36.

Speaking of, new Dezzle? Holy crap. That suit is beautiful. Now that is some of tokusatsu's usage of practical effects at its best. It's nice to see that even with Kabuterious, the villains aren't quite out of tricks just yet. The return of these two sort brings back the strange predatory presentation that I thought appeared often enough in the first half of the show. The villains hunting down our heroes, ordinary towns people, or just those important to them.

I'm also wondering if any problems will arise between Julio and Ran, they both seem pretty different and it sort of feels like Ran is only crushing on him because he's this sort of white knight for her.
 
Though I do find it sort of odd to have two sets of generals, but I'm glad that the rivalry angle isn't being wasted this time around.
 
In a return to form, Liveblogging is back :dance:

-Man Raiza and Dezzle's dark forms still look...odd to me, especially Dezzle's spindly limbs and overall lack of a real body.
-Holy crap, it's Gartina! :p
-I STILL hate Beeto, damn mid-90's CG annoyance
-it took me over half the series to realize that all the Command Voicers have the same horns, it's the card inserted that tell's what B-fighter it is.
-Genji's cannon makes me think of Megaman :D
-Kouhei got Jello-ized!
-Hakase sure can whip people in gear
-Re-enter the B-Crushers
-That Cicada Magazine always seemed strange how the cards went in. I know it's the stock of the Input Rifle, but still.
-So...a bat thing came out of the gem, and killing it stopped the MOTW?
-Ohh, new weapon for the Crushers.

-Geek glasses in the 90's, not as sheik as today
-So the MOTW spews Butter? Acid butter at least
-Why do i expect a voice to say "START UP" and Min to accelerate to clock up speeds when his armor opens to do Sonic Pressure? :D
-Two down, two to go :evil3:
-Using the Magic Fix-it ray doesn't seem to work all that well
-I guess all the armors have a grey undercoat
-Shoot-em to heal em, i like it :)
