Shouldn't Karone still be responsible for her crimes?

This is why I like Sentai. When characters die for dramatic reasons they usually stay dead.

I completely disagree. The whole idea of humans being under spells is too old. It was a nice and refreshing idea with Astronema actually being a good girl not under a spell but she was kidnapped and raised to be evil.

I don't have any problems with previous villains becoming Rangers as long as they make amends for what they have done or atone for their crimes.

That's true BUT it wasn't like she stayed on KO-35 for good.

True she went back to Earth but it's entirely possible that the Rangers explained things and the court let her off without any punishments.

why wouldn't the rebels accept Karone? She was one of their own... just because she was Astronema doesn't change the fact that she was originally born to be good.

You do have a point with the trial point though. It's possible the Power Rangers universe doesn't have anything like that after all how often do we even see authority figures like Police Officers or Fire Fighters? Practically never.

I completely agree.

I completely disagree. Yes it would've added to the finale but it left them with someone to use the following season when Valerie (Kendrix) had to leave to undergo chemotherapy and their first replacement choice Patricia (Cassie) decided to change her mind to replace her since she wasn't happy with the salary.

That's true but even Sentai brings the dead warriors back to life at times.
