Power Rangers MegaForce-Episode 7-Who's Crying Now?: Summary And Thoughts

Pictures come from MegaForce Cast.


Summary:
Troy runs into bullies at school that are making fun of him because he's "the new kid." Troy doesn't give in to their teasing and looks them dead in the eye. The main bully, Roy, asks him if he's going to cry. Troy then states "Take a good look. You see any tears?". The bullies just back off from him. Troy then sees them taunting another kid, smaller and heavier named Howie about an insect he has and is holding the container. Troy tells them to back off and show respect. They do so. Creepox in the meantime wants to defeat the Rangers all by himself once and for all. He does so and runs into two bullies who were teasing Howie once again. However, Howie protects them with the same words that Troy used to protect him. The bullies escape and Jake and Gia arrive just in time to save Howie and tell him to retreat. The two are severally weakened by the battle and Creepox escapes. The other three arrive to assist the two. Emma stays behind while Troy and Noah head off to face Creepox. Creepox however is to strong and Noah is injured. Troy remains strong however and faces him. With one quick streak of his Dragon Sword, Creepox in defeated. Vrak summons his Zombats as Creepox grows. The others arrive and morph and form the Megazord. However, Creepox is way stronger then they expected. However, Gosei comes to the rescue and offers them a new card that can combine all their Zords together to create the Ultra Gosei Great Megazord. (Sky Brothers, Land Brothers, Sea Brothers and Ultra Change Zord sold separably) With it they defeat Creepox.....for good. In the end, the bullies are nice to Howie doing what Troy told them about respecting other people. 


Thoughts:
This episode defined great. There was a lot of action, plot and all around good storytelling. For starters, the episode was about bullying. I like that being used as a topic as I was a victim of it. Bullying has become more common in our society today and it's good that a show like this is teaching children how to deal with it instead of just being frightened or starting a fight themselves. Creepox I am surprised was defeated pretty quickly. The reason why is because Saban is skipping Goseiger episodes because of importing Gokaiger elements in the 2nd half. The last time a villian was defeated early into the season was Furio back in Lost Galaxy when Magna Defender came along. The insta-morph was beautifully shot and the cinematography looked great. The Ultra Gosei Great however was also used as another marketing move for Bandai and the "Ultra Change Zord" was never explained (Look up Goseiger Datas to understand that) and Gosei and Tensou ONCE AGAIN are not used. 

Still, despite minor flaws, this episode was amazing. My favorite so far. It deserves a

5/5

There will be no new episode next week thanks to the RIG-ourous Kids Choice Awards. As such, "Robo Knight will air on March 30th. 

Next week's review will be a classic episode.
