History YMMV / MightyMorphinMechaRangers

--> '''Reviewer:''' I'd like to point out that despite his apparent wussiness, Shinji's the one who seems to be inflicting more damage. Who was it that finished off [[Film/{{Cloverfield}} Clover]]? Shinji. Who was it that gored Deathwing in the eye and then later ripped him apart? Shinji. The point, everyone, is that Shinji is just as awesomely badass as Bit, Roger, and Van, and nearly as awesome as Simon. The difference is that his [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion home series]] was written to [[CrapsackWorld make him suffer for it]]. In fact, his suffering arguably makes him even MORE awesome. When Unit-01 gets damaged, Shinji feels the same pain, and if his sync ratio is high enough, then he suffers the same physical injury. That means that in his case alone, the PILOT takes as much damage as the robot, and STILL comes out victorious. That automatically makes pretty much any of his fights as awesome as Kamina's final battle in Gurren Lagann. Mech damaged, driven by a severely injured pilot who, despite grievous wounds, refuses to give up? Sounds pretty damn similar to me - [[UpToEleven and Shinji does it on a regular basis]]. Big O, Shinji might be act like a wimp, but damn if he isn't the most badass wimp in history.

List of subjective tropes for the fanfic ''Fanfic/MightyMorphinMechaRangers'':

* CrowningMomentOfFunny: "'''Cast in the name of God, yee a pussy.'''"
* FridgeHorror: Lelouch [[spoiler: successfully Geassed Reedman... he now controls one of the most deadly (especially to humans) transformers in this verse... and we STILL don't know what his objective is.]]
* HilariousInHindsight: In this fic, Gendo [[spoiler:takes over SEELE, by forcefully placing his allies as the new numbers. Cue to ''Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion 3.33'', Gendo does take over SEELE, by an even easier way: shuting their counsciences off.]]

* NightmareFuel: [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji]] [[CombatPragmatist Ikari]] + MonsterOfTheWeek + ColdBloodedTorture / {{Gorn}} / NoHoldsBarredBeatdown = Nightmares. Deathwing's [[spoiler: first]] death is the best example, and [[GurrenLagann Simon]] [[KidHero the Digger]] is kind enough to [[LampshadeHanging Lampshade]] it.
--> '''Simon:''' "Just when I thought I wasn't going to have any nightmares...."
** [[spoiler: The methods of the more threat-worthy decepticons for eliminating human witnesses or attaining information or energy are...[[ParanoiaFuel reasons]] to be [[AndIMustScream scared]]]]

* CompleteMonster: [[spoiler: Makarov was already bad in [[ModernWarfare the last two MW games]], but is even WORSE here. How worse, you ask? One of his plans involved METEOR. YES, [[FinalFantasyVII THAT ONE!]]]]

* TheWoobie: Shinji is on the fine line between this and an IronWoobie.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Regarding the blackmailed Mecha Rangers, one reviewer made a [[YourMileageMayVary rather compelling case]] that ''Shinji'', TheSoCalledCoward, was actually the most badass member of the team:

* CompleteMonster: [[spoiler: Makarov was already bad in ModernWarfare, but is even WORSE here. How worse, you ask? One of his plans involved METEOR. YES, [[FinalFantasyVII THAT ONE!]]]]

* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Shinji]] [[CombatProtagonist Ikari]] + MonsterOfTheWeek + ColdBloodedTorture / {{Gorn}} / NoHoldsBarredBeatdown = Nightmares.
