Default Re: Zabitan's Magic Happy American Tokusatu Reviews

Well hello there everybody welcome to another Magic Happy VR Troopers Review, and today we are looking at The Disappearance written by Robert Hughes and directed by John Grant Weil.

So we start off with today’s “My dad taught me” moment where Ryan talks about how his dad taught him that if you trust your instincts, and use everything you have you will succeed.

Then we see the Troopers at lake riding on jet skis, and when they're done they wonder where Jeb is, and Kaitlin lampshades that Grimlord's gone after him before so they look for him, and it turns out a little girl was giving him ice cream.

Meanwhile at Ziktor industries Ziktor is still reading the Power Rangers villain playbook since Jeb disappearing on the Troopers inspires him to transform into Grimlord, and summon Icebot, and the two explain Grimlord's plan to use an invisibility potion on Grimlord's mutants.

Later at Tao dojo Tao asks the Troopers what is a martial artists greatest weapon, and JB guesses speed, and Kaitlin guesses strength but they're both wrong, and only Ryan guesses that it's surprise.

Then Tao tells them that they're next lesson is to sneak up on him, and take a little red ribbon from him, and we see various comedic bits where the Troopers try to take the ribbon from Tao but he catches on.

Ryan tries to sneak up on Tao while he's drinking water, and Tao throws Ryan into a chair, and catches his glass before it breaks.

JB tries to use a bo staff to take the Ribbon while Tao is putting something up but Tao notices it, jumps, and takes the bo staff, uses it against JB.

and finally Kaitlin tries to sneak up on him while he's dusting but Tao notices, and backflips behind Kaitlin.

When the Troopers ask what Two's secret is he simply explains that he uses all five senses to be aware of his surroundings, and that they should do the same.

At the virtual dungeon Grimlord wants to test the invisibility potion, and Decimator volunteers but Grimlord says he's too valuable, and other mutants volunteer but Grimlord decides to test the potion on Jeb.

Back at Tao dojo Ryan, and JB are sparing then everyone decides to go out for a break, and the Troopers, and Tao talk about the lesson from earlier

While inside a gym bag, a punching bag, and a wooden frame turn into Skugs, and use a weird looking device that shoots red lasers that turn Jeb invisible.

Then we see a comedy bit where Jeb pulls various pranks on the Skugs like tripping them, pulling their capes over their faces, and throwing books at them.

Then Ryan decides to see what's wrong with Jeb, and sees the Skugs, and starts to fight them, first they kick him but blocks, and dodges, and kicks back, then he punches a Skug into a chair, and throws another underneath the desk, and finally Jeb pulls the rug out from underneath them making them touch each other, and disintegrate.

Ryan hears Jeb but can't see him so Jeb explains what's happening, and Ryan tries to find him when everyone else arrives, and Ryan tries to explain he's straightening up, and Jeb has disappeared again, and when Tao leaves Ryan explains what's going on.
