https://www.deviantart.com/udinbono/art/Double-standard-in-super-sentai-fandom-1040018709 what double standard that you ever seen in tokusatsu fandom? i see many sentai fans have double standard with Ryusoulger & Boonboomger. many people hate Ryusoulger for having dinosaur theme because Kyoryuger was just aired 6 years before Ryusoulger but i never see people hate Boonboonger for having vehicle theme despite Kiramager was just aired 4 years before Boonboomger.
I feel like Cloverfield was a precursor to the Monster Verse.

Ive recently begun the task of watching Battle Fever J, and I am enjoying it so far.
I know this series was done as part of a licensing agreement with Marvel, as this show was born out of an idea to adapt Captain America after the successful adaptation of Spider Man into Supaidaman.
Since the producers wanted ro go wirh a team concept instead of focusing on one individual, in an effort to basically revive the Super Sentai concept following the failure of JAKQ, i feel that the prosucers missed a pretty obvious opportunity to license a team concept for their new team concept. Cuz instead of taking Captain America and turning it into a team, why not adapt a team that Captain America was already a part of?
The idea of adapting some of the Avengers characters into BFJ would have been interesring to see.
On a superficial level, you almost kind of see certain Avenger like aspects in BFJ. Battle Kenya's outfit being black and being almost feline like does give off a certain Black Panther vibe, and Miss America is almost Black Widow like in her skills.
I just feel it shpuld have been tsken further, Battle Cossack couldve been the Thor of the group, or the Captain America of thr team given there are two different ones during thr course of the show, Battle France the Hawkeye of the team and Battle Japan the Tony Stark of the group.
They even couldve made their commanding officer the Nick Fury of the group by having him sport an eyepatch.
Still, as it is, BFJ is still a lot of fun.
https://www.deviantart.com/udinbono/art/Akiza-Izinski-and-Yellow-Buster-1038565229 i am fan of both Yugioh & Super sentai. my favorite Yugioh female character is Akiza Izinski from Yugioh 5ds & my favorite female sentai ranger is Yellow Buster from Tokumei sentai Go-Busters. when i find out that Akiza was voiced by Ayumi Kinoshita who played Yellow Buster in super sentai,i am very suprised & happy.
