** If I'm remembering correctly, I think he WAS the only demon who could swim in water; there was a plotline where there was a demon who didn't have that weakness.



** Well, considering she was still a disembodied spirit at that point, he probably wasn't too concerned about her. While he may not have been committed to full blown treachery at that point, it may have crossed his mind to take over not just temporarily, but permanently. After all, he's been leading their army while she's been stuck int he spirit world or whatever, so why not take charge? He wouldn't have to try too hard to convince Loki and Vypra, and Impus is a baby so who cares what he thinks?

** Who's to say Chad was chosen specifically for being a whale trainer anyway? That was just his job. However he had also being studying martial arts for years. That sounds like the kind of guy ''I'd'' want as a Power Ranger.

* What is with Diablolico insulting Bansheera's son and trying to kill Impus (a baby at the time)

* What is with Why would Diablolico insulting Bansheera's son and trying try to kill Impus (a baby at the time)time) and think he could get away with it without facing her wrath? At that point, Diabolico was unaware that Bansheera doesn't care about her son(He was actually surprised when she laughs at Olympius being exiled to the Shadow World), so why would he think killing what he saw at the time as her MoralityPet was a good idea?

** I believe he used somekind of spell that let him project himself...but unable to act ''unless'' some human ask him to do something, this explain why he ''offered'' the deal instead of just kidnap ryan anyway.

*** I guess so... another thing is I'd like to mention is Diabolico said Capt. Mitchell would see his son on his 20th birthday. How was he able to know that he'd be freed from his SealedEvilInACan?!

** Because they were limited by genre conventions, the highly specific team-oriented nature of the morphing grid, and possibly wrecked Turbozords to reverse-engineer (see WildMassGuessing) to requiring a blue ranger, and they couldn't think of anything else, so they picked water-based occupations out of a hat.

*** Demons were their first, and they worshipped Queen Bansheera(possibly), just because they were evil doesn't mean they're automatically the bad guys. The only reason they were chosen to be the bad guys was "Demons are apparently evil", and hey, easy choice for a set of Villains. It has nothing to do with "Holiness" whatsoever. Likewise, wouldn't you feel bad if you built on a shrine of something?

* Demons have a weakness to water, but in episode 17, we see Batlings swimming in water. Did the writers of that episode forget something?

** Diabolico says "every time you morph, the cobra will move up your body" when he gives Ryan the cobra tattoo, no mention of a ''specific'' power, so I'd say it's likely the cobra was tied to the ''act of morphing'', '''not''' the Titanium Powers ''specifically''. I imagine the other Lightspeed Rangers just didn't want to have him morph unnecessarily and rapidly progress the cobra by giving him their powers to test, especially Dana; and I can't imagine Captain Mitchell would be on board with that kind of risk, either.

** Considering that they can't predict what the demons are going to hit them with next or how long the campaign against the demons will actually take, they probably prefer to focus on preparing for the next potentially imminent attack, and therefore can't afford to set money aside for something that relatively long-term (particularly since it's unlikely Dana would start training as a doctor until she doesn't have to deal with her Pink Ranger duties full-time).

*** But since the Sixth Ranger was US-exclusive anyway, why didn't PR just acquire (or reconstruct) the Sieg (or Sieg-Jeanne) costume?
*** Likely because the Titanium Ranger outfit would be cheaper to make and easier to do stunt work in.

*** Sieg is more akin to a Sentai Extra Hero than a ranger, and Power Rangers in general does not do Extra Heroes (the Magna Defender being an exception) - in all other cases where a Sentai had an Extra Hero, they either create an original ranger to take their place (The Blue Centurion being pretty much replaced by the Phantom Ranger, the Spirit Rangers being brought in for the majority of scenes that likely would've otherwise featured Jarrod and Camille), or they give them a reduced role and don't replace them (Ninjor not officially joining the rangers, Sentinel Knight acting as an advisor/battlizer).

* Why did the Glitz Girl plot happen at all? Dana finally joined up with Coco Cashmere, despite her reluctance, because Coco offered her enough money to get into her med school of choice, which had been something she was worried about. But... why?!? With the way Lightspeed is shown as being a government organization that's constantly coming up with brand new cutting-edge weapons projects, they have to have a {{Fiction500}}-level R&D budget. Are we really supposed to believe that there isn't money set aside in there to give the Rangers a decent salary and/or to cover scholarships for them?
