Why It Rocks

 * 1) The suits, mechs, and monster designs are extremely beautiful
 * 2) The fight scenes are well choreographed
 * 3) This one of the most likable Sentai Teams, with each Flashman being very well written
 * 4) * Jin/Red Flash, despite having a generic personality, has great chemistry with his teammates and leads them well.
 * 5) * Dai/Green Flash is one of the best "cold hearted" characters in Sentai who you care about deeply
 * 6) * Bun/Blue Flash is very fun to watch, his struggles on finding his parents again is very engaging
 * 7) * Sara/Yellow Flash is possibly the most popular of the five, most likely due to her connections/arc with Dr. Tokimura
 * 8) * Lou/Pink Flash, despite not having much of an arc, was still very charismatic and had great focus episodes
 * 9) The villains, despite being one of the weaker parts of the show, were very intimidating
 * 10) The opening is very jazzy, similar to Dengeki Sentai Changeman
 * 11) The plot is somewhat similar to Ressha Sentai ToQger, but much more well executed
 * 12) There are little to no bad episodes
 * 13) The finale was a very emotional

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The villains were pretty lackluster, especially when compared to Changeman's
 * 2) While this season was good, the next season wasn't well received amongst it's core audiences
