i feel like ive gaslit myself into liking this stupid businessman melodrama
honestly id be mad too if i was saito miu didnt even want to be here and she has no clue what shes doing like im rooting for her but also why are they doing this to her??????
This show would have been so much shorter if Logan died he is straight up vile. I'm finally starting to like this show more and... :nauseated_face: ENJOY it. I'm invested now in whatever bullshit these horrible people are doing even if a lot of the dialogue still annoys me and I still hate the editing. Jeremy Strong's acting as Kendall has grown on me too as this very inauthentic and rude tech business man who is unlikable but unfortunately realistic, even if some of how he is played is still a bit Muppet-like to me. The way that Roman's dialogue is written in particular still gets on my nerves, though, but I'm trying to remind myself that that is the point and it's not necessarily the writing it's just how he acts. <=coping
i am currently squeezing stacey like a squeaker toy
i love when characters who have really optimistic morals have them worn down and tested to the point of them losing their anger. anyways these 2 episodes reminded me this is a childrens show but like it was funny. dont tell your dad to shut up or he will cry.
this is genuinely what i thought would happen if i got caught watching "morally bad" media or listening to "inappropriate" music as a child
asuka was really funny in this episode i want to see him cry and punch the ground more
mikoto doing surgery on ryoga what did he mean by this
it is so cruel that they are making this loser girl be an idol for literally no reason who tf is behind this
i think its interesting how ryu's own values are reflected in the way that he talks about the girls father to her; with him talking about how her father really did love her even though he was absent and how he was just choosing his duty to protect people over her, like how he talks about how the jetman should do the same, and he says, too, that he believes her father was trying to pass down that duty to her. i think the interaction between these 2 characters in this episode was interesting
"guys, emotion has no place in being a jetman! get it together!" dead girlfriend comes back to life "i did not said that."
wow! so cute that gai and kaori are together now! surely this will not end poorly
ako and kaori standing around looking distressed while watching their friends beat each other up in a swamp
this one is so sad this would have made me even more scared of throwing my toys out if i watched it as a kid than toy story did
not a huge fan of the premise of this episode - extremely awkward position to be in: if you dont acknowledge the crush this child has on you then she will be in danger. was nice to hear gai's character insert song, though, and gai really is growing as a person
i love this episode, it's so surreal and the visuals and editing are off the wall and like genuinely a little off-putting at times. surprisingly experimental
the plot of this season is nothing to me
i love it when sentai antagonists just look like the ugliest fucking fursuit youve ever seen in your life
This episode is good I wish that there were more episodes in this season about each character learning and growing and interacting with each other because it's episode 43 and they're all incredibly 2 dimensional. Like it would be one thing if they were 2 dimensional and the plot were super interesting or entertaining, but ngl there is nothing about this overall story that justifies or makes up for it
dying officially confirmed to be motherless behavior
every once in a while this season starts alluding to themes of science and its relationship to war (particularly world war ii, which makes sense since this is a japanese show and the episode about the big gun is a not subtly a metaphor for nuclear weaponry) and violence and then doesn't elaborate further
this is the first episode of this season i think that had very adult themes regarding their position as scientists who protect the earth from danger. i kind of wish that they would make another science based season since from what i've seen modern sentai seems to be more willing to dive into talking about stuff like that. which of course, this is a show aimed towards children, so im not mad at it about not talking about adult themes LOL
in 1983 they can try and assassinate dyna red by putting a bomb in his wine, but in 2018 the lupinrangers cant even share a beer
now what did they think was going to happen when they stole the clothes of the worst person they know
clown rei kicking ass with an umbrella while carmen overture plays in the background is everything to me. the entire fight at the carnival is fantastic. its so goofy and i love all of the costume changes definitely one of my favorite fights so far it was so fun
put poppy pipopapo back you bitch
who would win: girl power or a guy who can turn people into acidic slugs
ohhh my god they gave him a little guy. i really appreciate the emphasis on helping children in this season bc like they know their target audience. if i watched this when i was little i would have adopted all these men as my older brother
this episode makes me wonder if rei was the blueprint for mako's character in shinkenger. they both had this episode plot done to them and their motivations and personalities are quite similar. rei is like her if she was more of a lesbian and liked animals, but atm mako is more interesting i say that as if i havent only watched 13 episodes of this season so far though lol
there was a part in this that felt like if there was a gay joke in a nickelodeon sitcom like drake and josh or big time rush or something
