I would say this was action-packed for a finale of a mini-series. And it made me wish they could've lengthened this one. But I'm just wishing for something weird here.
The Team Weirdo really had it hard here. But at least they finally got together after dealing with each other's differences. Not to mention, they finally discovered what really happened to Planet Nemesis before Rita used it as a site to revive Ultimate Great Satan. Honestly, even though I read on an article that it was an enemy formerly from Zyuranger, I had no idea who that was. Probably because I haven't watched that particular series yet. In this part, I wasn't sure what to say about Rita's reason for doing all the trouble to host a competition like this in order to retrieve the power of the gem for herself and her desire to erase justice in the universe. In this part, as well, I have to say that Stinger's way of thinking truly evolved.
They finally found Luka and let her deal with whatever creature was keeping the barrier around the planet in check (at least to Rita's benefit). When the final battle started, I couldn't help smiling that each of the members of Team Weirdo used their power-ups to deal with Satan. Though I have to say, this was the first time I saw Marvelous use a power-up other than the Ranger Keys. He used Ikari Gai's power-up on this particular episode that he never did in the actual Gokaiger series. I know that the other four got their respective power-ups as they journey into defeating their respective enemies in their own series. Yamato/Zyuoh Eagle was able to use all three "Beast Unleashed" power-ups which, I think, had first appeared in Zyuohger's final battle with Genis. Takaharu/Akaninger got his Transcendental Mode when they finally convinced Lion Ha-Oh to join the Ninningers into fighting the Kibaoni Clan. Stinger/Sasori Orange received his Ikkakuju Arm during the Episode of Stinger movie which has a tragic backstory to it. Kagura/ToQ #5 use the Hyper Ressha Mode as all five ToQger could do so.
Anyway, dealing with a giant entity with just their power-ups didn't seem to be enough. But Luka finally finished her task into destroying the source of the barrier, which finally allowed the Gokai Galleon to do a greater damage to Satan. The one that ended it was, of course, Team Weirdo's version of the first Sentai's finisher. I like the last part of it when the five of them threw energy blades towards the ball similar to Gokaiger's Final Wave attack that ultimately destroyed Satan.
After that, they had to deal with Rita who then donned Gaisorg's armor. At this point, I questioned the part when Luka mentioned that the armor contained the will of those that belonged to a race of warriors somewhere in the universe that disappeared. But it was the Ryusoulger brothers Green and Black who defeated her, throwing off the helmet someplace else in which the others didn't notice.
This episode answered one other question for me — which was about Master Red with regards to the blank Ryusoul in that cave. When the blank Ryusoul transformed followed by his words "I finally got one for him", I realized that at this point of the series, the Masters (including Blue and Pink) were just getting ready to finally appoint Kou, Melt, and Asuna to become Ryusoulgers. Master Red's last piece that he needed to complete the preparation was his protegé's Red Ryusoul and so he came looking for the blank Ryusoul in that cave.
I really like this team. That's all I have to say after watching the finale. I hope the actors of this team could work again in other future projects, probably a movie or just a mini-series. And soon, I thought of one thing. This is perhaps the closer thing we could ever get for a Kyuranger vs. Zyuohger crossover, with Stinger and Yamato being in Team Weirdo and these two dealing with Rita.
