 I'm still enjoying this awesomely goofy series, and this DVD was filled with lots of new monsters (the DARK Destructoids, of course). Rogue Jellyfish is the first female destructoid, and the mini poison jellyfish that she commands are really funny looking when they hop around in the air! King Crab Maroon is pretty cool looking, but his main weapon is shooting a stream of bubble bath suds (well, at least it paralyzes what it touches). Jiro has a few interesting moves in these episodes - sometimes he uses his famous red guitar as a club and bashes his robot enemies with it! That can't be good for the instrument, can it? I always enjoy seeing him appear out of nowhere playing his sad guitar. He's always hundreds of yards away somewhere, usually on a mountain or a bridge, but in one episode of this set, he shows up perched on the very top of a huge tree - he looks like a Christmas tree topper! All silliness aside, I do actually enjoy this show, and it's fun seeing Mistuko deal with her feelings for Jiro. Will she ever tell him how she feels? This DVD also includes a nice interview with Ban Daisuke, who played Jiro almost 30 years ago. Well, that's twenty episodes down, and a ton more to go!
