Kyoryuu Sentai Zyuranger 31 – The Rebirth of Ultimate DaiZyuJin

BUY OUR TOYS!

SatanFranken is giving the Zyurangers a hard time that lead us to the summoning of the Dragon Caesar, only to fail at the end. The creature spewed some strange liquid that can melt any metal and the only way to save the DaiZyuJin and the Dragon Caesar is to restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin, the form that beat Great Satan centuries ago! Can the Zyurangers restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin before it's too late?

Compared to the previous episode, SatanFranken's attacks are really interesting that caused the DaiZyuJin and the Dragon Caesar to fall and sooner, they will disintegrate if the Zyurangers can't restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin. Clotho returns in this episode as the one who revealed that Burai has 25 hours left to live and that they need the Ultimate DaiZyuJin to beat Great Satan. Clotho's explanation about the Ultimate DaiZyuJin makes more sense compared to what we have in the previous since the only explanation we have is DaiZyuJin defeated Great Satan years ago.

Clotho finally explained why Burai's has only hours to live, unlike what I theorized the reason why Burai lost his life was because he stayed in the Timeless Room, it turns out it was quite the opposite. He died before he had a chance to kill the Zyurangers thanks to the ice age (which explains the snow that covered Burai's body) and that the DaiZyuJin asked Clotho to give him some lives so that they can restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin. Wait a second, if DaiZyuJin asked Clotho to revive Burai so that they can restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin, then why the heck he commanded Geki to kill his own brother for the sake of justice (!) in the first place? This caused me to believe that DaiZyuJin is that jerk who likes to change his mind occasionally.

While Clotho is explaining about the Ultimate DaiZyuJin and Burai's life, SatanFranken is busy making more casualties as the gas that he released can slowly kill humans. With that in mind, they don't have much time and they must head north to find a way to restore Ultimate DaiZyuJin and they have some obstacles to face for them to restore the Ultimate DaiZyuJin. The obstacles they faced are something I expect them to face; they have sick kids, Grifforzer and Lami's troops and a cliff with each of these obstacles showing us the best qualities of our heroes.

The sick kids obstacle showed us Geki's leadership skills and how can Mei and Boi handle it, the Grifforzer and Lami's troops obstacle showed us the fighting skills of the Zyurangers with a greater focus on Dan, Goushi and Burai, which by the way showed their distinct fighting style that I keep on ignoring or they just don't show it that much. Lastly, the cliff obstacle showed Geki's determination to fulfill their goal and his resolve as a leader.

Because of Geki's resolve to jump the cliff, the Zyurangers are transported to a place where they see a slab with six holes in which they need to insert their medal after telling their individual mission. The scene was really great, it showed us the resolve of each Zyuranger to their mission as they realize that they are actually doing their mission without them being aware that they are doing it, they just need to realize what they are doing. Each of their missions reflects who they are and their missions are: Mei is the Warrior of Love, Boi is the Warrior of Hope, Dan is the Warrior of Courage, Goushi is the Warrior of Wisdom, Burai is the Warrior of Power and Geki is the Warrior of Justice. Much to my disappointment, Geki didn't have his own realization scene like the rest of the Zyurangers.

Now that they know their mission, it is time for the revival of the Ultimate DaiZyuJin! But before we focus on the Ultimate DaiZyuJin, they first showed the combination of the DaiZyuJin and the Dragon Caesar, the Sovereign DaiZyuJin, which is basically having the Dragon Caesar as DaiZyuJin's coat. No seriously, that's the best way to describe it; it's so lazy that it made the GouZyu GokaiOh from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger a bit creative. The moves of the Sovereign DaiZyuJin namely the Empire Attack and Kaiser Burst are just strong laser attacks with the later, a compression of energy that they release in one shot.

The Ultimate DaiZyuJin is one of the best looking final mechas that I saw in Super Sentai. This seven-piece mecha formation looks really good and has this aura of a king riding his chariot. The finisher, the Grand Banisher is just simply the Ultimate DaiZyuJin shooting every single cannon the machine had. They were able to beat the SatanFranken and Great Satan because of these two new combinations. At the end, the kids are safe and that our heroes obtained the Ultimate DaiZyuJin, a combination that beat Great Satan. So in case Great Satan is revived later in the series, our heroes are ready to face him.
