(Where Wraithstrike Watches) The Toku Thread

[cypsiman2]

Cool, I liked RPM a lot, and I actually did enjoy Go-onger, even if it is my least favorite sentai, so this should be extra amusing for me.

Liveman's another good choice.

Power Rangers RPM Episode 1: Road to Corinth



I enjoy this series. Right here in the first episode we have some really tight writing, and great scenes. The flower bit was a tad too much, but I just love that even in the post-apocalyptic world, people haven't lost their sense of humor. Downside: Summer is only seen doing something awesome, but gets no introduction like the others.

Well, I consider getting to do something awesome but no introduction to be a better trade-off than an introduction but no awesomeness. Also, Dillon tore off the top half of a mook; that definitely has implications for what sort of person Dillon is.

Power Rangers RPM Episode 2: Fade to Black


Do you know how awesome it is that the script calls for things people would actually say? How refreshing it is that every third line isn't some horrible pun? This is some tight writing, and I love it!

The dialogue is natural, the writing is tight, the plotting is well thought out, RPM's got a lot going for it.

Power Ranger RPM Episode 3: Rain


I do find this to be a natural character progression. He still wants out, and gives it a half-hearted try, before realizing he has something bigger to be a part of.

The spandex line is a great one.

RPM Episode 4: Go for the Green


Ziggy is awesome. Full Stop.

 

[cypsiman2]

Ziggy is indeed great, and you haven't seen nothing with him yet.

Power Rangers RPM 5: Handshake


Ok, the whole hand thing was just silly for silly's sake. But the genre savvy villains and the continuity from the prior episode regarding the shield was well done.
