Overall a good first post, but I heavily disagree about Zyuranger being mediocre

Blaze Dragon posted:We mortals cannot fix bad taste, but maybe our God, Shin Dan Kuroto, could create a Gashat that fixes it. Pray to the Game Master to fix your bad taste. Personally I feel the opposite and think that Go Busters has some of the worst mecha designs in the last decade or so of the franchise, at least in Toy Form(same with Shikenger and Gokaiger) Indeed at least when it comes to the Toy versions of the mecha, of the last decade or so I'd say these are the top 5; 1) Boukenger* 2) Nininger** 3) ToQger 4) Kyuranger 5) Goseiger *I'm kinda cheating by including Boukenger, but it ended in 2007 so good enough for me **indeed for Shurikenjin there's only really two complaints I have with it's design; the Dog robot might as well not exist for how little it contributes to the robot, and how the arm that the dump truck contributes has nowhere to go on any of the alternate configurations Shurikenjin has besides Drago where it stays on(one of my biggest pet peeves regarding Sentai mecha design is when a combination results in parts having nowhere to go)

Stallion Cabana posted:can you find a more perfect metaphor for Ninninger then 'the dog mech does nothing for the robot and the dumptruck is awkwardly hanging around waiting to do something' Actually most of the dump truck forms the torso, just that part of it also becomes an arm

Craptacular! posted:Ex-Aid is about working against the system? Didn't seem like that to me. At some point the Director is forced to realize the Riders are doing what is right instead of what is procedure and asks for the public to support them, but that's about it. Agreed, Ex-Aid as well as Drive are definitely not about their Riders being outside of society, and any fighting against the system in those two shows is circumstantial in nature as well as temporary for the most part(heck Ex-Aid ends with Taiga becoming a legal doctor again) Indeed of the post Decade series only Build and Amazons really come off as particularly anti authoritarian in nature(and in Build's case it's due to them reviving the concept of a Shocker style villain conspiracy as well as artificially altering the very nature of Japan as a country)

gourdcaptain posted:Or the ridiculous Decade Ryuki lawyer-verse one, you can't forget that. They even have the same combat-time weird use of the Mirror World if I remember correctly. Build's also going to be "fun" to reconcile with crossovers unless they stick it in an alternate universe to the main one. I'm just assuming that Build is set in the future TenCentFang posted:I have an ex that loving hates Rebellion but I thought it was pretty good and the ending made perfect sense. We were talking about it literally just this morning. Am I in the minority on that? From what I remember Rebellion just feels infuriatingly incomplete due to it's ending, and that comes from someone who despises Madoka because of how bleak and depressing it is

Waffleman_ posted:No way. Considering the diametrically opposed nature of the teams, there's no way they're not in the same series. This is new ground for Sentai, I think. Rider's had Rider vs Rider stuff for a while, but there's never been Sentai vs Sentai. Well there was the Hurricanger vs Gouraiger stuff in that series but that only lasted a couple episodes

Twelve by Pies posted:Yeah that was actually pretty awesome. Since he doesn't really qualify as a Sixth Ranger, this is the first Sentai I can think of where a non-Red/non-Sixth character gets a unique power up form. If I recall properly one of the 80's Sentai had it's Black Ranger get a unique powerup, although it was only used as part of a finisher

Shaezerus posted:My favorite weaponized transformation sequence will forever be that five-second shot in Gokaiger where they changed into Dynaman, turned around, did the team pose, blew up an entire crowd of Gormin with the background explosion, and immediately swapped to another team without a single word. Wasn't that one of the only times they ever used Dynaman as well(I remember there were a couple teams that didn't get much use in Gokaiger, with Zyuranger being another one)

Craptacular! posted:I was trying to figure out how Rogue has BAT considering that after Sento beat FakeRogue last week he struggled the bottle out of the guy's hands. It sure looked like the plot backfired and cost Rogue his bottle. We don't see Utsumi transform(so presumably he just handed back the Bat bottle and the Transteam gun after he transformed, indeed I do believe he didn't have the gun during that fight either), and the bottle he tries to use was one of those unpurified ones that turn people into Smashes(or kill people who have already been exposed)

Motto posted:Huh, wonder how having two reds will shake out, plus how/if they'll do an extra. Well it's far from the first time a Sentai team has had two Reds(Timeranger, Hurricaniger, Magiranger, and Kyuranger), they just normally call the other Red something different

Honestly I think Zyuranger is probably one of the best choices for someone's first Sentai series, especially now that Shout Factory has it up for free streaming on their site(along with Dairanger, Kakuranger, and Ohranger)

The only real issue the MMPR comic has is that initially it had really bad designs for any new monsters, at least as being ones that Finster would make, and they often didn't draw Rita's minions very well

On the topic of Good Sentai series, worth reminding that Zyuranger, Kakuranger, and Megaranger* are all up for free streaming on Shout Factory's streaming service(as well as the less good but still watchable Dairanger and Ohranger) *for whatever reason they skipped putting Carranger up, although I talked to someone from Shout Factory and they confirmed that it'll be going up eventually, guess there must have been a rights issue they had to resolve or something

BENGHAZI 2 posted:The Ohranger ones are fine, because they're literally the MFC subs I meant show quality, not sub quality Blaze Dragon posted:Is this service open to every country? I left Megaranger ages ago and I should totally finish it, I was really enjoying it but I have a bad attention span so I can't binge-watch quite as well as I wish I could. Probably US only, but since you don't need an account to watch anything you shouldn't have any issues using a proxy/VPN service of some sort

coconono posted:Finally after setting up all the bullshit, OOOs starts to get good around episode 42(which manages to squeeze in a sweetass journey allegory in the first scene).Everything's built towards this, which is nice but the pacing slows down heavily when Date shows up. And Ankh especially, this has all built towards answering major questions about who Ankh really is. There's a reason I keep suggesting the best way to watch OOO is to watch up to Shauta's debut and then just skip to the last couple episodes, you honestly don't really miss anything all that important that the show itself won't explain during the finale
