Trini Mantis Episode
This is one of my favorite Yellow Ranger episodes and the best Trini episode imo. It was awesome to see Trini centerstage and take on the Mantis by herself. Her struggles to learn the Mantis Kung Fu made for a good episode. The subplot with Cockroach Kung Fu was hilarious.

Re: Trini Mantis Episode
I remember lol with that Bulk and Skull subplot. It was probably the funniest thing they ever did.

Re: Trini Mantis Episode
It was just so silly lol.
But I agree this was a good Trini episode. The time between Green Candle and Return Of An Old Friend had some really good character episodes. Some of season 1's best stuff. |

Plus we got the actor who would go on to play Tao as her instructor.

Re: Trini Mantis Episode
VR Troopers may have already been filming by that point. Or at least the pilot for Cybertron. Which the actor was in as Tao.

Re: Trini Mantis Episode
I thought it was pretty weird that Trini trusted the Mantis to fight her fair.

The mantis took advantage of her sense of honor.
