VR Troopers

VR Troopers is a series about JB Reese, Kaitlin, and Ryan; the Virtual Reality Troopers. Professor Hart and the three teens fight Grimlord and search for Ryan's dad.

Why It's Awesome

 * 1) It has great fights and good fight choreography. The dojo scenes are very well done, as well as other fighting scenes, and the footage used from Jikuu Senshi Spielban look good for the suited fights; scenes do cut a lot, but they probably did well considering they made the show in the 1990s.
 * 2) The bots look good for the 1990s.
 * 3) The ideas for many different episode work in the format.
 * 4) While not every villain is awesome, the villains like Grimlord, Jeremy, Colonel Icebot, and others are cool.
 * 5) * General Ivar is pretty dumb at first, but in some episodes he is smart and has a nice rivalry with JB.
 * 6) JB and Kaitlin are less mean than Jeb and Ryan.
 * 7) Ryan is still a good friend, despite being a sore loser and greedy jerk.
 * 8) Tyler Steele is a good dad.
 * 9) The sets and make-up are very sensational for its time.
 * 10) The large amount of explosions can please youngsters or big Michael Bay fans.
 * 11) It can have a Power Rangers vibe. Maybe a Super Sentai vibe to some degree.
 * 12) The show teaches to love the natural environment, be determined, keep friends close, and be nice.
 * 13) Ryan does have nice sentimental moments at the end of most episodes.
 * 14) The angry fist and fiery eyes of Grimlord can seem cool.
 * 15) Laser Lance command and Laser Fist command can feel cool.
 * 16) Woody can be very funny, not always, but he works for the show.
 * 17) Ziktor getting leverage over Mayor Roony through promising to fund his election in exchange for whatever he needs could make sense for the most part.

"Bad" Parts

 * 1) Ryan is too mean for a hero, and Jeb is a naughty dog (look further below for context).
 * 2) Professor Hart is not the best teacher, and he usually just gives orders, but at least he isn't mean.
 * 3) The jokes can be lame, and the humiliation-humor (specifically with Mrs. Roony and Percible), are arguably tasteless.
 * 4) * It's almost always Jeb that humiliates those two.
 * 5) * When it happens, Kaitlin, JB, and Ryan all laugh, as if being allergic to dogs is funny; people die from allergies and Percy should be felt sorry for, instead of laughed at, for having to be harmed in every episode he is in.
 * 6) * Mrs. Roony is pretty jerky, so sometimes she deserves it, but why bother to annoy her when you can just ignore her?
 * 7) * Percy also can be rude, but it is more understandable for him (everyone yells at him and he constantly gets hurt).

Trivia

 * 1) JonTron reviewed the first two episodes.
 * 2) The memes that came from the show are small but can be found around the internet.
 * 3) Haim Saban used some fight scenes and character designs from Space Sheriff Shaider, Jikuu Senshi Spielban, and Choujinki Metalder. Each of those were from Toei Company.
 * 4) * Many fighting footage was used from Jikuu Senshi Spielban.
 * 5) Carl Ziktor wasn't known to be Grimlord by anyone for quite some time, while Ziktor knew who the VR Troopers were since day 1.
