Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters

Live Reactions

Overall: Weaknesses bring out character

Go-Busters is a very good show, and another one I just greatly enjoyed overall.  It's a good show, with a fun, interesting team in a really good story.  However, it suffers from falling short on some fronts, mainly the relationship between Hiromu and Enter.  It seems kind of just thrown in when it could of been developed a good bit better.  I think it definitely aided the story, but the writing on it just didn't hit how it needed to.

The final boss of the show very much feels like it was really over by the early 30s episodes, everything else just seems like it's really an after story or sequel.  It kind of felt like they were wrapping it up in case they didn't get the rest of the episodes.

However, the show is still really good and the story is great.

Also I highly recommend Go-Busters vs Go-Busters, the entire thing is super funny and does a really good job of making fun of the tropes in Sentai.

Hiromu personally hit me as one of the weaker characters of the series, but he's still good and nicely developed.  We definitely got to see him come out of his shell over it and become someone who was good for the team.

You are their daaaad,
You're their dad!
Ryuuji is so young for being condemned to dadhood but he's been a dad for 13 years now and he's got it down.  He cares so much about his bratty teenage kids.  I love him.

Yoko made me so sad.  I felt so bad for her and I love her.  She works so hard but she is so bratty at times, but it's done in a good way so you don't hate her or feel it's a problem.  She's more just feisty and it's good, she's so tough and trying so hard to be strong.

Jin if you could lie some more we could cover you in soil and give you a headstone.  Jin holds everything I loved from Fai in Tsubasa so naturally I had to love him.  Also he thinks he's smart when he swears in English.

The J stands for Tree Juice
and also for I Love You.
Also I really like that Jin made a buddyroid and it was a horrible egoist and he was just like "know what, this is better than if he wasn't an egoist".

Watch Go-Busters.  It's another fun series, while there's some shaky bits it doesn't prevent overall enjoyment.  I'd happily rewatch this series any time.
