But at least the setup was short and the mirror scene done       off-camera.              >Are the senshi stupid? I don't understand the supposed conflict in       >this episode.

But I look at it this       way. They had to, in effect, offer up their henshin wands for the       power up. If Pegasus had neutralized the wands instead of enhancing       them, the senshi would have been powerless against any further       attacks.              I'm not sure that I see any love lesson in this episode, but on the       other hand, it is critical to the story-line. I'm thinking that       episodes that move the story forward may not have a lesson for the       week and so that's how I'll call this one unless someone can think of       something better.              The dub of this episode was so horrible that I think my ears were       bleeding by the end of it. The slang index was through the roof. Does       the script writer really believe that American teenagers speak this       way? Robert asking Rini to "kick it back" with him sometime? Buggin',       fine, trippin', fly, playin', I think they had a slang dictionary and       decided to try and use every word in it. Then after the senshi get       their power-up, the dub changed all the attack names to make them       sound 'super'. Mega Mars, Superior Sparkling, Super Aqua, it makes you       want to cry, it really does.              --       Phoenix       www.phoenixanime.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
