Linear Ranger's Thoughts
An okay episode. Really what hurt the episode for me was the goofy good luck charm fight. I know even in Boukenger the fight was still almost the same, but I just couldn't get into the whole good luck / bad luck story, even though I personally do believe in luck. However, I did still enjoy everyone's performance in the episode. Ronny's lucky socks were a good running gag. Most intriguing of all is this hidden secret Mr. Hartford and Spencer have about Mack. It should be most interesting to see what it is exactly about Mack that makes him special, and why he should have been immune to bad luck. But again, overall it was an okay episode, still enjoyable but just okay.
