I rewatched most of episode 2 yesterday. It was still enjoyable. Acting-wise, like others have said, it seems to be better than Samurai. More natural. Aside from the red ranger. It seems like he's purposefully being kept quiet so as to reveal more about him later. If that's true then I don't like that idea. Your red ranger needs to be stand out as the leader. As much as Samurai gets panned for it's acting, I can admit that I actually liked Jayden a lot.
Zord fight was good. It's too bad there weren't more like that in Goseiger to draw from since I figure Saban won't do custom zord fights. The Headers being called Mechazords did through me at first. Probably because the term "mecha" is something I'm not used to hearing in English. I think back to Dangaioh's dub when I hear it :laugh:
Still like the Dynamic Victory Charge! And "mega win" at the end. Back during Samurai I liked the "Victory is ours" line as well. Kind of disappointed there wasn't a throwback line with Noah mentioning that the reason they automatically knew how to pilot the mecha was because their morphed forms ingrains the knowledge into them instinctively.
Only thing I didn't really like are two things:
1. They act as if alien sightings and giant monsters and robots are a new thing. This would be fine if Megaforce was its own thing, but it clearly a continuation of past ranger seasons, so the logic brick keeps hitting me in the head. But, real fire flaming sword distracts me enough to not harp on it for now.
2. The morphers are way too big and conspicuous for regular communication. I know it was mentioned by Gia in the locker trying to hide it, but that would be cumbersome to repeat throughout a series. I am hoping that they get communicators. I always liked those bracelets the MMPR crew wore and it made sense. Surprised they never made toys of those to sell. Funny how we can gripe about yet another cellphone morpher, and now a cellphone morpher would make the most logic sense in this day and age.
