Power Rangers MegaForce, Ep 01 - "Mega Mission"

[musicfighter282]

Does that mean that the other ship will be Troy/Robo Knight?

"Mega Mission" was an ok episode to be quite honest.

When I first watched it the first impression I got from this show is that its clearly filled with fan service, Basically its nothing more than something for an old school-er to go nuts about, but besides that I think it has the potential to be a very good show provided they step things up more.

Also I must admit I really like the rangers this season but unfortunately just like Samurai they come off as being a bit fake in terms of character and acting, still lets hope that improves.

Not to mention there was also a lot of lazy editing in this episode especially in terms of how the Goseiger footage was merged with the US stuff, Such as the cards obviously reading "Gosei *insert colour here*" and the weapon cards, The Villains are typical US villains in my opinion in terms of voice acting and I don't think that's going to change any time soon

Anyway I think the episode gets 6/10 from me simply because its still the first episode, and I'm not going to judge anything based on one episode.

[HIDE]Why the heck are Burajira and GoseiKnight already in the opening? Some spoiler or what? But then again this could mean that Maybe the Goseiger side of things will be wrapping up quicker than I thought if its going to be split 20/20 again[/HIDE]

So after watching it, my best friend Nik and I started riffing on the episode. Then we started recording it. an hour or so editing and....

Gosei and the Robot.

But, cheesy one-liners are part of toku. D:

A part of American toku anyway, that possibly rubbed off on the Japanese parent >>

Speaking of - Did anyone else get a "lesbo" vibe from the two? I'm being serious.

If only, right?

Speaking of - Did anyone else get a "lesbo" vibe from the two? I'm being serious. Yellow was all over Pink in the episode. I mean, Yellow knew exactly what kind of drink to get Pink. I understand the writers are probably going for the 'close friends' bit but even my best friends wouldn't be able to nail my favorite **** down to the toppings and additives.
Even in the fights or other scenes, Yellow's attention goes to Pink first (Seriously, I can't remember their names and I've watched this episode twice today.. Is it just me? I remember Troy and Noah. That's pretty much it.)

Whoever writes/directs these new Power Ranger seasons seriously doesn't understand how casual/close friendships work. First the Jayden/Sister incest thing and now this, lol.

I don't think you know how close friendships work. I did not get any sort of 'lesbo vibe' whatsoever from the two. They are best friends. Probably have been for years, hanging out day in and out for years. They have routines, such as going to Ernie's, so for Gia to remember Emma's drink is not out of the ordinary as she has seen her order it a million times. Females moreso than guys remember **** like that. I wouldn't expect a guy to remember another guy friend's fave drink, that's just not how we operate. Hell my best friend and I have known each other since first grade and I couldn't tell you his. But females, I can easily expect that from and not bat an eyelash at it.

That's as bad as people on boards saying Jake's crush on Gia is "obssessive" and "creepy". He likes the chick and is trying to get her attention and impress her. Nothing I have seen from him rings up as creepy. Hell I can remember being that guy in school with the huge crush and the unrequited feelings from the girl.

I think these characters are more real and spot on than a lot of other past seasons.

LOLing over people getting uncomfortable at the Jake/Gia shiptease, with their Japanese counterparts being siblings.

I told my sister about that during us watching the episode and she was this close to throwing a pillow at me. :laugh:

Same reason Time Shadow and V-Rex are in this OP:

Touché

 

[MetalSymphony]

As other have said, on a rewatch Gia and Emma Do seem....close. But i think it's more along the lines of BFF's/Heterosexual Life Partners than same sex lovers. But hey, we haven't had any Gay rangers yet, so anything could happen.

And just because Jake likes Gia doesn't mean that she plays for the same team .

Well I enjoyed the episode. I mean cheesy yes, but it is definitely a good start to the series. In American toku now a days, cheesy is just part of the game so it doesn't really effect my opinion
