Tokusatsu Thread (Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Ultraman and the likes)

@SquiggyBomb  
Just gonna repost my reply from the time wasting thread
 
No i mean like instead of animals each ranger is based on a character class, Red=Paladin Black=Rouge Green=Ranger White=Cleric Blue=Fighter have the 6th ranger be a Mage to play up how OP they are ect,

So, today’s Ninja Steel:
 
I love that one shot in the opening that didn’t get updated to show all six Rangers at first has since been changed. Sort of attention to detail that shows they care more than Samurai/Megaforce, always welcome. Of course, it made me notice things like:
 
Brody morphs without morph sequence, and as usual the morpher vanishes as the suit appears. …And then he immediately has it again in the next shot as he leaps in sentai footage.
 
Ripcon yelling in rage is kept when he doesn’t really have enough enmity against Brody to react to his escape that way.
 
With a zord fight that consists of “Robo Red runs around the monster once and doesn’t do anything, rejoins the Megazord, then they do the finisher,” it was the perfect time to skip the zord fight, having the audience not cheer enough for a hilariously incompetent monster to get Gigantified. Make that element seem more like a ‘thing’ than a foregone conclusion.
 
And a scene transition that got screwed up.
 
(As for protecting the tree, I’d say to anyone who had a problem with it the same thing as I said when PRDT did: pretty much every other episode of the first season of the original series was that way and you all loved it.)

I have been looking over the Build Driver again, with the trailer and toy stuff, and I’m really not sure I like the crank.

I find watching Power Rangers in other languages interesting.The Hindi dub is especially cool.RPM’s Hindi dub keeps a bunch of dialogue in english for some reason.The Hungarian promo for Samurai used the original MMPR them.Most countries don’t dub the theme song,India used to,but starting with RPM they stopped.Italy made a new theme for MMPR and dubbed the existing themes up until lightspeed,I think.I can’t find it dubbed anywhere.Rita’s Swedish voice is freaking HILLARIOUS.The opening of Samurai for Serbia has the VA’s lethargically drone the rangers’ names,except for Antonio,who gets to keep Steven Skyler.

Cinemasins did an “Everything wrong with” video for the Power Rangers movie.It was oddly negative,considering “Honest Trailers”was pretty positive about it.Also,the narrator wouldn’t shut the hell up about Marvel.

@Dex Stewart
 
Cinema Sins is garbage, frankly. I get that they’re supposed to be “satire”… but they’re not funny.

@Jarkes  
Some of the sins were accurate though, such as the fact that it took so long for them to actually become Rangers.

@09MurphyM
 
I… honestly didn’t mind that that much? I mean, I get why it would bother people, and yes, I would’ve preferred more actual Ranger action… But all the character-driven stuff leading up to it was fine, and it made it all worth the wait.

@Jarkes
 
Satire? Really? I genuinely can’t tell. Some of their ‘sins’ are just pointless nit-picking. I turned off their Transformers the Movie one when they did crap like list alien robots having a mall-like structure as a sin, or Ironhide referring to Decepticons as Decepti-creeps as ‘Decepti-racist’.

On Rangercrew,some people were talking about the cinemasins video,and someone mentioned how messed up the contents were.Yeah,they were pretty bad.Most people who commented seemed to want nothing more from the movie than fight scenes.Where were they during Megaforce?

That was a odd introduction/cameo of Build…

Ex-Aid 44 stuff  
Poppy NO!  
Hay the lvl 1 forms got some good use.  
And there goes Parad, took Gamedeus with him.  
Oh fuck off Masamune Dan.  
The final episode is all that remains.
 
 
And the movie…

chapter 2 of the W manga is up now on Batoto.

Can the next Ex-Aid kill us even more than the last one did? And holy crap, what must the movie be like? It’s gonna be a hard wait.
 
Spoilers for today’s Ninja Steel:
 
First, don’t tell me anything if you know the answer from the episodes that aired early in Spain or whatever. Fun speculation’s what I’m after.
 
Okay, so “Aiden” isn’t Aiden. Question is, who is he? Would be boring if he was just a Kudabot. However, there are yet-to-be-introduced sentai villains. Turning out to have fooled them, having done whatever damage he’ll do from the inside, and yanking Brody’s hope for a reunion away… that’d be a hell of an introduction for Tsugomori! However, Ripcon was noticeably absent from this episode, so maybe it’s him.
 
Also, did we hear the Samurai and Dino Charge versions of “Go Go Power Rangers” in the BGM at the end of the zord fight?
 
Also also, it’s hilarious that they’re all “you stay back, the two of us got it” and then they get schooled and the others have to go help out anyway.

@Phantom Rider  
I’m taking a guess here but I think I know somthing that will be revealed later.  
Again this is a guess, but going to put it in spoilers just to be safe.  
Levi isn’t his real name, he’s actully the real Aiden.

@Prof.NightJack
 
Apparently, the website for the French channel (Canal J or something) that airs Ninja Steel has pretty much already confirmed that.

@Phantom Rider
 
Seriously, how the hell do they keep screwing up with the music?

Why is it that Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder get a free pass for somewhat-generic rock BGM, but the current seasons don’t?

Also, some idiots made a Change.org petition to try and get Saban to sell Power Rangers back to Disney, and pretty much everyone on Twitter has been like, “No, that would be TERRIBLE”.

@Jarkes  
And I just took a wild guess. :p

@Prof.NightJack
 
Honestly, a lot of people guessed that (including myself).

@Jarkes  
Makes sense given they wouldn’t show that Brody become the second red after his father and he had a brother if his brother wasn’t also going to be a ranger.  
And there was only one person it could be.

EXCITE Subs has already got their release of Ex-Aid’s final episode out, and I just finished watching it.
 
Such a great series. Ex-Aid is officially my #1 Kamen Rider series.

@Jarkes  
I can’t remember, have you watched W?

@Prof.NightJack
 
Yes. And that was my #1 for a real long time until Ex-Aid. Kuuga briefly dethroned W as #1, but after a bit more consideration I bumped Kuuga down to number #2 (and it is now #3).
