Dino Charge has so many rangers I only remember the rich guy, the alien, and the very cute mentor.

Is Zenkaiger any good? I'm holding off for a goodly chunk of episodes to binge, and it's getting to that point where I'm itching to watch what's out.

Your series can't be too red-centric if you don't have a red ranger

It's still buckets of fun, though, and the robots have just enough character to be relentlessly cute.

started watching In Space for the first time this weekend and i'm a little surprised at how strong it is right out of the gate. like, i guess as someone that had drifted away from the show by that point i expected it to be decent and to continue the upwards trajectory the back half of Turbo had started on but for the way it's talked up to be a bit exaggerated but nah, it's good stuff. last episode i watched was the one with Andros and the car thieves, the writing of which felt very "kids show of its time" but his naivete was kind of adorable. it's funny that after a half dozen episodes they're like "oh wait, the Turbo Rangers were still students before fleeing to space, right? maybe they should stop back in, they probably have a test due or something." i'm not really feeling Bulk and Skull's b-plots so far in this one. i didn't mind them in Turbo-2 since their odd jobs would often intersect with the Ranger stories, whereas so far here they're just kinda completely off on their own i've also had this song popping into my head periodically since finishing Turbo. primo Power Rangers cheese https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEh6AbbPHsM

A large portion of the cast are suit actors and there’s footage of them using the powers of/fighting against multiple unadapted teams. For example, Stacey’s villain debut would either have to be completely reshot or they’d have to make up some explanation as to who these strange new Ranger teams he summoned were.

It's like some people read Wasserman's sometimes goofy lyrics but didn't bother with the composition. People didn't like Combat despite themselves because of the lyric about "your ultrazord protection," but because the hook was catchy.

Honestly, PR needs to just start doing what Sentai does and giving, like, individual mechas or Rangers themes I still hum the GaoSilver theme sometimes

Forgot to say I was surprised the Turtles crossover was so early in the season. I knew it was a thing that was going to be coming up, but it seemed like the kind of thing that happens a little later on when you've established your show a bit more, not literally like episode 4Larryb posted:I’m really curious how/if that show is going to get adapted into Power Rangers one day. A large portion of the cast are suit actors and there’s footage of them using the powers of/fighting against multiple unadapted teams. Given that the two year format means they're sliding further behind Sentai every year, I feel like they just skip it. I'm really enjoying the show, but the basically everything about it makes it an easy skip in terms of trying to turn it into Power Rangers Assuming there isn't anything to that rumour about them stopping Sentai adaptations going forward anyway Craptacular! posted:I remember at the time the show started that people liked the first episode or two but was skeptical of how it was going to go. That's definitely the lower part of the series, with things picking up a bit after episode 16 and especially after they add a guy. I know a few things about what's coming up - Andros' sister's identity, that there's a Silver Ranger named Zane that I know basically nothing about, the Psycho Rangers existing but whose deal I know nothing about, and what ultimately happens with Zordon - but how those things come about or the general progression of the show is all new to me so I'm looking forward to the ride, especially if it's all up from where I am quote:Turbo's music was super cheesy even by Power Rangers standards when it was new.

It's not as good as Wasserman's season one stuff, but the way it's used in the show with the drums and the "let's go!" leading into the chorus as they form the Rescue Megazord really worked for me FilthyImp posted:I think the reason is "Saban was a dick to the music guy" People Saban wasn't a dick to would probably be a shorter list Homora Gaykemi fucked around with this message at 08:26 on May 9, 2021 |

The average episode uses about 2min of footage, and probably half of that is the zord battle.

Bandai of America was involved in the design of the suits so it was at least in part designed with an eye toward succeeding in the west under some concept or another. Who knows if these writers would make it work, though.

Once read an interview with Chip Lynn where he was like 'writing for 10 rangers in Dino Charge loving sucked, never again' so that might have something to do with it. Of course he's gone now but some of the writing crew from back then is still around.

And given Kyuranger could barely handle juggling those characters as well as the main plot with its own run time, I have greater doubts of Power Rangers being able to do that in its more abbreviated run time. There's also a bunch of other problems too with the series that would make it terrible to adapt

Hell, in both cases even the original Sentai didn’t handle it much better so personally I’m not holding my breath on any sort of Kyuranger adaption in the near future. Personally I’m getting the feeling that Kiramaiger is probably going to be the next season adapted after Dino Fury wraps.

My solution to too many rangers too many characters: You know the two comedy characters you have in each season? And the authority figure? And the mentor? Give em Morphers. More rangers, same number of characters.

John Wick of Dogs posted:My solution to too many rangers too many characters: Kyuranger tried that solution and it still ended up having part of the original team shoved into the background and into irrelevancy. Even normal Sentai don't have that many recurring non-villain characters Edit: Mentor was Xiao Longbao who became purple and the 10th member Comedy duo was part of the main team. Same with the assistant type character. Those were Gold, Silver and Pink respectively. Then they added a kid character and finally the true "6th" Xelkelvos fucked around with this message at 03:07 on May 10, 2021 |

A Kyuranger adaptation I figure would rather than how Power Rangers usually has a supporting cast of non Ranger or villain characters, would probably only have the Rangers and the bad guys for it's recurring cast Fake Edit: well others have brought it up already, though I do feel everyone is being too Doom and Gloom about it Larryb posted:Hell, in both cases even the original Sentai didn’t handle it much better so personally I’m not holding my breath on any sort of Kyuranger adaption in the near future. The problem with that one is that Kiramager's designs translated terribly to toy form(well mostly for the main robo but that's the most important thing) and I'm not sure Hasbro can fix that while still remaining accurate to the source material Overall Zenkaiger is basically their best option at this point

Anytime there is a tv on in the background or somebody is watching tv it should be ToQger, and a ranger should say "Oh that's the show they made about power rangers where they drive trains!"

Oh I should clarify I'm fully on board for a Kyuranger adaptation because I really liked it Like, I can admit it's not perfect, as a Sentai series. It doesn't give focus out to the lesser characters very well. But I still think it's a fun, solid show with a lot of good humor and moments. Xelkelvos posted:Comedy duo was part of the main team... Those were Gold, Silver Excuse me I will not have you just erase Naga as a 'comedy character' when he a great bit of focus turning evil and then good again, thank you very much Junpei fucked around with this message at 03:44 on May 10, 2021 |

I do think the main robot had some design issues, but they're not insurmountable.

All I ask is that a Kyuranger adaptation do a whole rewrite of the kid. While he's not a gross perv like Kou, he was still annoyingly there at all times. Ok, I guess I meant rewrite as in "rewrite him completely away to have more Shou Lonpo"

I'm pretty sure the guys who have been making Transformers for the better part of 40 years can make it work.
