Those 80s Japanese hairstyles are the bomb.

Also, Zyuohger fillers really highlight how it's just kinda solid but run-of-the-mill Sentai with not much special to it.

>Also, Zyuohger fillers really highlight how it's just kinda solid but run-of-the-mill Sentai with not much special to it.
Most Sentai filler is usually just that. Filler. Can be really enjoyable or suck shit, but there's usually nothing too noteworthy about it.
>>
>>14208494
Sometimes it's good enough to have something familiar and well-executed, rather than something new that runs out of steam well before the end (but then again, when Utsunomiya's in charge, you don't really expect any ambition).

I'm just glad that they're actually using heartless villains again, after the last few years avoided doing that.

That's assuming if Utsunomiya's okay with something like that. The guy is big on having the status quo remaining as intact as possible (given that, you'd think he'd go as far as end a Sentai by having the conflict last eternally).

The only question is, what would be the catalyst to cause the Deathgaliens' end: TheWorld, his cube animals, or something different?

Are you trolling or just retarded? BTW, I'm a PRfag who got into sentai because it was so different to PR. Anyone who's watched both can tell that the difference with most series is about as great as the difference between Kamen Rider and Garo.

He's the best Hurri villain. And this was an enjoyable arc, in my opinion. Also, I'm usually the guy shitting on Hurricaneger,
>>
>>14210632
spoiler: yeah, I still like and watch PR. Dino Charge is pretty good (Yoshi Sudarso is based), looking forward to the game show adaptation of Ninninger too, sounds super hot. There are some series that are basically the same like Shinkenger and Samurai, but Go-Onger and RPM are hugely different, it's actually kind of amazing that they got RPM out of Go-Onger. I think if you can get over the immense cheesiness of PR and haven't watched it since MMPR, it's worth picking up again.
>>
>>14210632
I've only watched a lot of RPM. It's actually quite good for PR.
>>
>>14210655
I tried watching with both Ninja Storm and Dino Charge. I didn't enjoy either of them. And when I brought this up in /prg/ and other places I got accused of being a sentaifag (despite not mentioning it at all) and that has put me off of PR and its fans.

The ones I hear are worth Sentai watcher's time are Time Force and RPM.

>>14210659

this guy has the right idea if you want recs. I also liked Jungle Fury.
>>
>>14210664
I met two of the actors from Time Force at a convention once, Kevin Kleinberg and Dan Southworth. For some reason, I kind of expected them to be jerks, since that's kind of what I've come to expect from elitist PR fans, but they were both super down to earth and really cool to chat with.
>>
>>14210680
You ask what their favorite Sentai seasons were?
>>
>>14210717
Dan had seen a few seasons of Sentai but didn't specify much, Kevin had never seen Sentai but was curious about it. I gave him some recommendations and a few sites where he could check them out, and he seemed genuinely interested. He especially wanted to check out the original Timeranger and Jetman, to see where his show and the series proper really came from.
>>
>>14210728
That's cool to know. I actually heard Jetman was gonna be the original Power Rangers at first but they decided dinosaurs were more sellable then birds/planes.

>If you want more female heroes, there's always Precure to watch.
No, fuck you.
Precure is not that.
It may seem like it is but it isn't.
The major difference between an average episode of Rider or Sentai and an average episode of Precure is that stories in Precure usually have sweet fuckall to do with the action part. It's like two different shows. First it's a slice of life for really little girls, then suddenly a bad guy shows up and shit's on. Sometimes they'll use the guest character as the power battery for their evil plans (because Sailor Moon did this, essentially), but not always.

Look at this week's Zyuohger. Everything that was happening was tied into the storyline, both for this week and at large. Look at... I actually don't follow Maho week-to-week, but pick one after they returned from magic school (again Precure seems like it'd have the wherewithal to integrate the setting into the stories but fuck that I guess). In fact I bet if Bandai could get rid of the superhero part without sabotaging the brand they would, the idea of a fighting superheroine was just too good to last.

So screw every single last of you who tells people to watch Precure when somebody asks for more heroines (impossible as it is). That no pump-a-rum.
>>

You're putting too much stock into "this guy worked on this which means everything he does must be like this".

Tusk really isn't the problem. A stiff actor is not a death sentence if they're playing a stiff, awkward, autistic character. Unfortunately, Arakawa's two episodes thus far (Ghost crossover and the dream episode) weren't as strong as the other episodes by Komura. Tusk's focus episode last week had a cute moment or two, but it wasn't a necessarily promising debut for new toku screenwriter Jin Tanaka either. Both Arakawa's and Tanaka need to step it up if they're going keep up with the bar Komura has set.

Sun Vulcan and Kakuranger might be up your alley. Also, Dynaman is so wild that the cameraman almost seems like he had a goddamn seizure in the first episode.

Is Denji Sentai Megaranger good?

Rangers in Space was my favorite season of the Americanized shows, and I've been thinking about watching the original, but how different is it? Is it still all about space adventures and shit?

Yep, it's quite enjoyable to watch and has some funny moments as well. Megaranger has no space stuff at all outside of one or two battles, that's just what they rolled with in Power Rangers because they saw the mech in space and thought that was the premise or something like that.
>>
>>14213407
Just don't expect the show to have much in common with IS beyond most of the enemies (series-specific, though the grunts are completely different) and a fat/thin comedy duo.

Shit, that suit looks sexy as fuck. It's a merge of Ohranger and Dekaranger to me.

If the suits had those shoulder pads and that golden neck, I would have loved them from the beginning. I'm used to them by now, but this would have improved them.
>>
>>14214004
ZyuohWhale is kinda making me think of a set of Neo-Magirangers, mostly thanks to the KR Wizard like coat he has. I agree as well it looks great.
>>
>>14212313
Yes, there is no over arching plot, and when it tries to make one the issue is resolved an episode later. The characters are extremely dull and have little to no development, and the action isn't enough to carry the show.
>>
>>14213884
>>14213907
At least that makes them even. Anyone think the rest of the team will use those two as a crutch?

>>14213831
I like to consider Rio and Mele to be the Tristan and Isolt of Sentai. Only big downside is that the show could use a better translation (which won't happen any time soon), though at least the video quality is fine.

Finished Carranger today. How was that so fucking good? They just had so much cheerful energy all the time, I was even excited for the traffic safety tips at the very end of each episode.
Yellow Racer so cute. Pink Racer a horseface. Onward to Megaranger.

It just had an incredibly talented comedy writer behind it who was the main writer for most of the Toei Fushigi Comedy Series franchise. I was so fucking bummed out when I finished it myself.
Look forward to Megaranger, it's the first Sentai that did kids in high school being the members right after Turboranger did it wrong.

It's a shame he doesn't do much that's major nowadays (most recent thing he did was write episodes for Abarenbou Rikishi Matsutarou, which several people hated). Also, I would pick Powerpuff Girls Z over current Powerpuff Girls every time.

>>14214944
One should pray for that, since most comedic Sentai successors had a hard time living up to it so far.
>>
>>14214977
Slightly ot but I feel like Ninninger could have been a fantastic comedy season if it didn't keep trying to take itself seriously. If you introduced Ariake no Kata earlier and gave Kinji less "me family dead" angst and let him just be Shinken Brown-- uh, Starninger, it really could have been great. Yakumo and Takaharu had great potential for hilarity, they just tried to push a serious rival plot instead. It seemed like they only figured out Takaharu and his brainlessness was best as the butt of jokes instead of a hero 2/3rds of the way through the show. It's really a shame.

As for other comedic sentai... Go-Onger's the only other straight comedy sentai I've watched and that went full retard with the anime jokes. The cars didn't help. It's that difficult middle ground that made Carranger good, it had that self-referential self-depreciation and the lack of any real danger that made such shitty heroes funny instead of annoyingly incompetent.

The problem is that humor is a difficult concept for japanese to grasp. Kobayashi in particular seems to think comedy starts and ends with lolsorandum and occasionally a penis gag
>>
>>14215104
Japan literally thinks that humor is simply saying a different word than The Way You're Supposed To Do It.
>>
>>14215104
>Something taken seriously
>That devolves into something completely different involving two men

This really isn't a Japan only thing.
>>
>>14215104
>>14215128
There's some decent comedy in anime like Slayers. I mean, it's still kind of heavy-handed and often even slapstick-y, but it's actually funny a lot of the time, so it's not like there are no funny Japanese shows.

I also laughed pretty hard at Rodan and Godzilla both laughing their asses off when Mothra webbed the other one in Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster.

So it's not like Japan can't do humor. It's that Toei isn't funny.
>>
>>14215104
I honestly prefer Japanese humour to American humour. Get a lot more out of stuff like Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei than I do out of US comedies.
>>
>>14215104
I dunno man, nothing wrong with a bit of lolsorandum as long as it doesn't affect understanding of the plot. ToQger had some pretty fuckin funny moments.
>"I know about kissing."
I'm not American and I find most American humour pretty cringe, so maybe it's just cultural differences. Silly shit is universally funny, and Toei straddles the line between that and straight up surrealism/absurdity, which is an entire new kettle of fish.

>>14215128
this is a major thing though. Like 90% of the "comedy" in Den-O was lost on me and I found it really boring. Especially frustrating because I know enough Japanese to pick up why the puns are puns, just not enough to understand why they're funny. You know, the old "Comment s'appelles un chien qui vend des médicaments? Un pharmachien" vs "What do you call a dog that sells medicine? A pharmacy." problem.

I feel like when I watched Joshis, a Sentai-ish themed comedy, I just didn't understand what was funny. It literally is just people saying words in different ways like it's funny, or asking why they have to do things. It's strange.
>>
>>14215020
I have no idea how Carranger got the comedy so perfect while shit like Go-Onger didn't really at all. I wouldn't even consider Ninninger a comedy.

Zyuohger's getting it right I think though. Whoever's directing has a great way with comedic timing. Plus the actors are great at expressing comedy.

Takayuki Shibazaki, the Go-Busters guy. It helps that he had Shimoyama do the Gobus Vs. Gobus movie, to boot.
>I have no idea how Carranger got the comedy so perfect while shit like Go-Onger didn't really at all. I wouldn't even consider Ninninger a comedy.
Takegami mainly writes anime, unlike Urasawa's more well-rounded resume, so the quality gap is obvious (much like an aging Arakawa and his own pupil Komura). As for Shimoyama, the execs didn't let him do anything too drastic (much like how KR Ghost was for a while).

I've never understood these complaints about Japanese humour. I've found the Japanese to make me laugh with their shows more than American shows do.
>>
>>14215806
The episode the Power Rangers watched was also edited and dubbed to be different than the actual Abaranger episode.
>>
>>14216856
All they changed were the voices and names (and cut the Mech segments), The plot was still the same (they even played the opening)
>>
>>14216856
Not really? The only differences was changing a few names, using PR terminology in place of the Sentai's, and the removal of a few scenes for content/time reasons (anything involving monsters fighting civilians, that running bit with AbareBlack and the toilet, the AbareOh fight, and I think they shortened a fight scene or two)
>>
>>14216825
Japanese have no problem with humor, it's just that culturally they're humor is different than ours. Sentai's problem is that the humor they put in the show these days is usually bottom of the barrel dumb because it's a children's show for baby children. They don't need to write smart humor for adolescent kids that only want to see the badguy go kablooie.

Bandai released its 4Q and final earnings report for there 2016 fiscal year.

Ninninger overall earnings for the fiscal year was 7.8 billion yen. Its earnings was a 31% drop from Toqger earnings of 11.3 billion yen and as of now Ninninger has the 3rd lowest toy sales behind Timeranger and Gekiranger.

But look at Kamen Rider. It's the lowest it's been in years too. This seems more like a systemic issue.

It's interesting that Dragon Ball went up so much since Super started though, and I guess Gundam IBO sold well too.

Almost everyone on /m/ does. They just changed their tune when they heard it did doodoo in toy sales because they can't think for themselves and if some show's toys sold poorly, then they can't like it.

I like Drive.

It does spend too much time introducing toy after toy at the expense of story though. It isn't until the halfway point that the show gets a real plot.
