Review:
Skyfire is Jiraya, a metal hero from 1988. He appeared as a guest in Ninninger because he is a ninja. This is the first time a Metal Hero guest with Power Rangers. He is the seventh Metal Hero to be adapted into English, following Speilban, Sherivan, Metalder (VR Troopers), B-Fighters, B-Fighters Kabuto (Beetleborgs) and Jansperson (Beetleborgs). 2018 is technically the 30th anniversary of Jiraya. As Gavan New Type appears in Go-Busters footage, fans are hoping he gets adapted for Beast Morphers. Some fans hope he gets adapted as a VR Troopers as he looks like one of them. Kenner did make the toys and Hasbro absorbed them and we are assuming Hasbro now owns Saban’s rights to VR Troopers.

Episode Review:
An uncomfortable episode. I don't like werewolf episodes. Also an overzealous fan episode too. I know what it is to be in Levi's position and Chaz's and it just isn't a good for either side.

Review:
Tzachor had his take on MMPR with Megaforce and Chip had his take on MMPR with Ninja Steel and Dean Isrealite had his take on MMPR with the 2017 movie and think Dean succeeded better. Fans liked it more. Where Tzachor and Lynn tried to imitate (with lines, music or familarity), Dean reinvented but kept the spirit.

Back at the school, Victor and Monty are broke and people want refunds. The principal confronts them about the check. They grovel to be taken back. The repellant is broken and stinks up the school. 

Episode Review:
It is pretty bland for a premiere. It is so redundant to have the Rangers lose their powers and regain them. And to just tease Sledge was cruel. It just makes Odius look weak in comparison, with no passion or quirks. She has her mission, her goal but we know zip about her. Sledge at least we know has a weakness for his wife and looks for fun when stressed. Advice to Hasbro is if they do this 'super' second season again, don't make the rangers lose their powers. Just make the last season a cliffhanger and resolve it in the second season premiere.

Review:
They should have more villains with sexy voices like Jordi Webber, it makes them more interesting.
