Sanseater prediction based on Sentai tropes.

I'm convinced that we are in for a Sanseater redemption. And if not redeemed, they are making it out alive.

Ignoring the fact that they are basically Team Rocket written by an actual Pokemon writer, the Sanseaters are coded as a Sentai for the most important trope in the franchise: teamwork, friendship, and loyalty. They are fiercely loyal to each other, and to Mad Rex, and want nothing more than to achieve their goals as a team. This is what sets the heroes apart from the villains across the entire franchise.

Sentai roughly translates to "squadron," meaning a team of warriors. The Sentai team is embodies the spirit of friendship and teamwork (though sometimes the show is about them learning how to do that.) And they are always set against a villain faction that is completely dysfunctional. Villainous sixth rangers are just characters who are influenced by the Sentai and drawn to that loyalty, which is stronger than the dysfunction. It isn't a mistake that we regularly see villains plot against each other and betray each other. It is the whole point of Super Sentai.

If the villains are always undone by their lack of loyalty, then the Sanseaters have no choice but to survive and to thrive because they always have each other.

51 episodes of BoonBoomger?

If Gozyuger were to air in March like has been consistent for years, BoonBoomger would need to have 51 episodes and end on February 22. It would be the first Sentai since Lupat to have that count of this was the case. How likely is this?

My own Sentai season idea: Alloy Sentai Gokinger

Title: “Alloy Sentai Gokinger”

Theme: Chogokin, Popy, and Bandai toys alongside Metal Hero inspiration.

Synopsis: Deep, deep in space, there is a miraculous planet called “Popy”. The scientists of Popy have invented a powerful super alloy that is nigh-indestructible. However, war breaks out as turncoats in the midst seek to seize the alloy for their own wicked purposes. Eventually, the war makes its way to Earth and one of the refugees finds three humans and grants them the power of the super alloy, turning them into the Gokingers.

Ranger suit designs: Metallic and shiny, like most Metal Hero designs.

Primary Ranger colors: Gokin Ichigou - Gold (with red accents), Gokin Nigou - Silver (with blue accents), Gokin Sangou - Copper (with yellow accents)

Extra Ranger colors - Gokin Yongou - Bronze (with pink accents), Gokin Gogou - Gray (with white accents), Gokin Rokugou - Red (with gold accents)

Central gimmick: Again, chromed finishes, emphasis on the mecha firing projectiles (namely their fists).

Morpher: Morpher is wrist-mounted and doubles as communicator, “key” item is a small figurine of the Ranger’s Morphed form a la the ones in B-Fighter and the Ranger Keys in Gokaiger that is stored in the Ranger’s belt.

Extra Ranger Morphers: The Morphers for Yongou and Gogou are belt-mounted instead of wrist-mounted, but function essentially the same. Meanwhile, the Morpher for Rokugou is instead a pair of metal gauntlets that are hip-mounted.

Morphing sequence: Ranger removes “key” item from belt -> Does a flashy movement sequence before inserting “key” into Morpher -> Shouts “Alloy Set! Gokin Change!” and finally Morphs

Extra Ranger Morphing sequence: Again, Yongou and Gogou Morph essentially the same way as the first three, but Rokugou is different. Instead, Rokugou slides their hands into their Morpher gauntlets and removes from from their belt in the process -> They punch their hands together, sparking a bright flash -> They raise their arms toward the sky and make “punching” motions” as if their fists were firing off into the distance -> They shout “Pow! Pow! Gokin Power!” as they do this -> They finally Morph as a result

Primary mecha: Name is “Gokinjin”, is similar to certain combining mecha like God Sigma and God Mars, metallic structure and ranged weaponry is emphasized (again, especially fists).

Mecha components: Gold-1 (Gokin Ichigou), Silver-2 (Gokin Nigou), and Copper-3 (Gokin Sangou). Individual components can transform from their own humanoid robot forms to mobile vehicle formations a la Go-Busters’ Buster Machines/Animals and Carranger’s VRV Machines/Fighters.

Extra Ranger mecha components: Bronze-4 (Gokin Yongou), Gray-5 (Gokin Gogou), and Red-6 (Gokin Rokugou). Bronze-4 and Gray-5 can also form limbs for Gokinjin as Silver-2 and Copper-3 can, alongside the Gold-1 through Gray-5 all combining together a la Gunpherd and Birca combining with the base Engine-Oh in Go-Onger. As Red-6 is a Sixth Ranger mecha, it works differently where the four limb components can combine with it, alongside parts of it being used to supplement Gokinjin itself.

Carrier mecha: Name is “Gokinica Carrier” and is meant to evoke Popynica alongside Chogokin. Separates and can act as armor and weaponry for the individual Ranger mecha components and Gokinjin.

Villains: Evil rebel group from Popy called the “Akumin”, who, as mentioned previously, want to use the power of the super alloy to take over the universe.

In the Gokaiger’s universe, how would the otherwise separate Super Sentai co-exist?

Like the various Dino theme teamed having different takes on the dinosaurs dying out. Was Kyoryu Gold known by the Shinkengers of yore?

No, really. This is interesting to parse out a world like this.

We have many child characters in Sentai but not of them match the greatness and impact of Computer Boys & Girls from Dai Sentai Google-V. They are simply generational.

Boonboomger Red 119

During the second act of Boonboomger what did you think of Bon Red 119 battle suit to over powering, to boring or what.

It like is overwhelming to see him with the only power up plus having a lion does not connect with car theme sentai.

How would you rewrite Ohranger?

I’ve always called Ohranger the ‘sentai that could been’ simply because we never got to see the original vision the writers intended due to unfortunate circumstances. How would you rewrite the show?

W Magi Campaign Gold Magi Phoenix and Silver Wolzard

Hello everyone,

This is my first time posting on Reddit! Today, I want to talk about Gold Magi Phoenix and Silver Wolzard. I think many people might not be familiar with this release because I almost never see anyone posting about it. However, I found three channels on YouTube that shared it a long time ago.

These toys are from the Magiranger Campaign, which took place 19 years ago. Only 10,000 winners received these toys. I didn't get mine through the campaign, I bought these from Mandarake.

I’ve already posted a short video on my YouTube channel showing some combinations. If you’re interested, feel free to check it out and enjoy the video!

New rumor which explains the confusion over the genre of Gozyuger's Blue

In fact, Blue has a twin sister, and apparently she could wear the costume.

So if this is confirmed, I will have to hope that this costume changes color to become pink when she is the one wearing it because, you may have already read it, but I will find it a shame that we do not take advantage of having a female ranger in the Lion totem to make it a pink ranger and thus have a Lion ranger for each main color.

Sakura Taisen and Sentai

Just finished playing Sakura Taisen and reading the manga. I think it has a very strong Sentai vibe from the cast, team concept, episodic storyline, each character focused chapter (or episode) are somewhat very familiar. Not to mention the addictive opening theme song Gekitei too (I heard that it took an inspiration from a Sentai opening theme song).

As a big Sentai fan, I highly recommend to play the game as well as read the manga. Imagine a Sakura Taisen tokusatsu could happen.

Do you guys watch the episodes as they're released or you wait until the season is complete?

I'm the the latter, I usually watch the first two episodes and then finish the show watching everything in December

New to Super Sentai

Hi everyone, i'm New to this world of Super Sentai, as a brazilian i always watched it's US counterpart (Power Rangers), I watched until Dino Charge in 2016 and after this i stopped. 1 year ago youtube recomended me a video containg all SS openings (From Gorenger to King Oh-ger) and i liked it. The opening i most liked was from Gingaman, the song, the environment (I watched PR Lost Galaxy in 2012, cause i was born in 2000). So the first Super Sentai I'm watching now is Gingaman.

Btw, from 2009 to 2011 Ulbra TV (a defunct brazilian TV network) aired every saturday, from 6PM to 10:30PM a show called Made in Japan, a show that aired tokusatsus from the 80s, including Ultra Q, Jiban and Jiraya. And arround 8:30PM, they were showing Flashman and by the time i just called "Japanese Power Ranger".
