PMush Perfect posted:I still really like Gentoku's arc through the series, especially his relationship with Sento and how that relates to Katsuragi's legacy. It's not at all difficult to draw the conclusion that he was using Katsuragi as his moral compass. Seeing Sento, who is/isn't Katsuragi, condemning his choices, while also losing everything else, leaves him aimless (and realizing how far he's fallen and how much self-justifying he's been doing.) Yeah, the main reason he changed at the end was because his actor didn't want to be scary any more, but you can also see it as him becoming the person he used to be before he was broken by difficult moral choices. Once Sento is his moral compass again, he doesn't feel like he has to harden up, and can lean into the parts of himself that he lost touch with. I kind of found his goofiness after joining the heroes to be a little sad. He’s been so wrapped up in hard choices before falling to outright villainy and the horrors necessary to become Rogue that he’s forgotten how to function outside of it. He needed this group of weirdos to help him learn to live again. Gentoku had a really good arc. PMush Perfect posted:That one gets brought up a couple times, including one point in 27 (which I just rewatched last night after talking about it). He says outright that those words made him the person he is now. I miss the days when the main Rider had a defined character beyond one or two quirks and showed development over time. Looking at you, Mr. “I Wanna Be a King” and Failed Comedian.

PMush Perfect posted:Sometimes that one quirk can be enough, though! As long as a point is made of that character's view being unwavering even in the face of things that would damage or break anyone else. See Kisaragi "Friendship is awesome" Gentaro, who doesn't back down on his desire to be everyone's friend even with the person who literally murdered him. It feels earned. i feel it also helps that fukushi Sold the hell out of that character, this is a Very easy character to screw up if not cast correctly. and don't forget he meant Everyone even his final boss, and a satellite. but not the incel who tried to drive a bus full of his stalking victims off a bridge that guy did Not get a friendship handshake

At the end of the show, I was watching Gen and thinking "this is the same character who was a major villain just a little while ago" and being impressed at how his actor had so much range that he could believably play the same character as a goofy hero.

Failed Comedian may be official main Rider according to Toei, but not by long shot when it comes to competent writing. That honor goes to Fuwa and Jin.

PMush Perfect posted:What did you think of the proxy battle, especially how and why Banjou lost, and the RabbitRabbit / TankTank reveals? Fukkin' awesome as hell. Banjou is my favorite idiot boy. RabbitRabbit is one of my favorite forms, but Ninja Comic will always be special because I'm a total sucker for the color scheme and scarf Further: the Proxy Battles were really neat; Banjou losing the way he did shows why I like him so much. And the villains in this one really are huge pieces of poo poo, so I look forward to them being utterly smashed later I really, really look forward to some day being able to get many of the SH Figuarts Riders from this series. I know the Rabbit Tank is being reissued for I think a September release it looks like. I'm down. Also when it comes to the belts, since the series is from 2017 it doesn't seem like it's too difficult to get a hold of them (or many of the other goods). My OOO belt cost me around $130 shipped when I got it last year. GATOS Y VATOS fucked around with this message at 23:22 on May 31, 2020 |

So, I was reflecting on my comment about how they might change Melto or Towa's genders when they turned Ryusoulger into Dino Fury, and it got me to thinking about other unadapted Sentai and who might get gender-flipped for a Power Rangers adaptation, and I realized that there's only really one who needs it, Ryusoulger aside. ToQger, Zyuogher, and Kiramager already have the usual 2 girls to a team that don't require any flips. Patranger Vs. Lupinranger follows the usual "starting team of 3 plus later additions" that adaptations usually leave alone, like Ninja Storm and Beast Morphers. The big one is Kyuranger, which has 2 girls on an eventual team of 12, which I have a feeling is not going to be let slide. Honestly, if I had to make any predictions for who gets turned into a girl for a Power Rangers adaptation of Kyuranger: Spada, Naga Ray, Balance.

Garu, Champ, and Xiao are definitely staying men (and Raptor-283's staying a woman) in the adaptation.
