>[ToonsHub] Yoroi-Shinden Samurai Troopers S01E01 1080p CR WEB-DL AAC2.0 H.264 (Multi-Subs)
I never watched the original when it aired on tv over here, because I was already a weeb teen and it pissed me off that it was the americanized version.
>TroonsSar
Apparently it's not a remake but a sequel and it has its' own deep lore.Surprisingly good quality from Sunrise for a random old series.Fujo coded tokusatsu, all the combatants are hot men with 2 supporting girls. It's like I'm watching gundam.
well that was something
>>285092261It was never tokusatsu.
>>285093221Toku is when people use suits, shut the fuck up.
>>285093221Original was a saint seiya wannabe made by a kamen rider dude, solid anime.Lol the absurd violence of this sequel, new red trooper MC is a fucking legend.
>>285092086>the americanized versionFor something that did get one, not many burgers seem to have nostalgia for it.
>>285091789I watched it and felt confused the whole time. I guess I have to watch the original to understand what is happening fully.
>>285093772Having watched the original, it won’t help at all. Part of the confusion is definitely innate to this being a prologue so explanations will probably come after.
Why are Red killing civilians?
>>285093920Fuck humans.
>>285091789another murder protagonist? I'm so sick of this sunrise trope
>>285094565That was a decade ago.
>>285093752I loved it when it aired here in the mid 90s, I even had some of the toys. I rewatched it a few years ago in Japanese and still enjoyed it.
>>285093772Is not a complex setting, some samurai demon god empire born from ancient wars invaded japan and 5 elemental/virtues powered magical samurai power rangers repelled them.After 35 years the demon samurai god is now back with new enslaved warriors and it seems the government failed to form new troopers to fight it.
>>285094565To be fair when Mika kills people its "for muh family" seems like this new guy just kills people for the "lols" not sure how that is a "hero"
>>285094565>Sunrise :we love insane mentally unwell people as protagonist
>>285095406Based
>Sunrise anime original>threads dead on arrival
>>285094565Pleb opinion. >>285095371He's a hero in my life.
>>285095685We have to argue about AI for the billionth time.
>>285093634>Original was a saint seiyass is shit
i saw the designs and was like, this is a lot more fujobait than the slightly more sentai geared designs of the yesteryearsi'll still give it a watch but the simple sentai nature of the old one somehow made me feel more at home, especially with the late showa era soundtrack
>>285096044The old show did have a pretty good soundtrack, nothing special but it did what it did well.
>>285096044Fujoshi also loved the original show back in the day.
>>285096105the dub actually kept some of the original bgms in there despite changing the opening and ending creditshttps://youtu.be/TSsNu9211xI?t=371love when the main theme instrumental hits at this part even in the dub, that's the kind of shit i live onman i always fantasized about a tmnt arcade style ronin warriors game
>Character genuinely named NastyYou think her parents just hate her guts?
>>285096642that was strangely her name in the original series too kek
>cream soda flavor Why? Just why?
>>285096105Italian OPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUQbr_RZHXE
>>285097018Those italians know how to make my toe tap.
>>285097018This looks incredibly pozzed.
I like that the character models are drawn with thick border outlines. Not really a big deal but you dont see that very often in anime. Also, I dont remember the original show being this violent so the all the murder kinda surprised me. Though i haven't seen the original show in over 20 years either so pfffffft on that
>>285096642Nah they were just French and pretentious.
>>285094565IBO aired a decade ago
>>285091789Just finished it. Expected nothing but it got quite surprised. It's actually pretty damn good. Side note. Intro reminded me of good ol' Jackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iBU_D36-AA
Also not often you get to see children sliced to pieces on screen.
>>285097134The original show implied a similar level of violence but didn't actually show it. Aside from the hands at the end, t's not much different from historical battlefields anyways.
>>285096291>a tmnt arcade style ronin warriors gamethere probably was a Japan-only game
>>285097592Children dying?Reminds me of the good times with Tomino.
the OVAs were very weird
>>285098182pretty cool ENTER moment
>>285091789wow that looks like shit. anyways as a kid I liked red but now i think orange is the cool one.
Shutendouji was best boy by the way
>>285096642Her head doesn't go with the rest of her body.
Kotetsu?
>>285098280This.
>>285091852>two greensSo the bro character is gonna die?
>civvies get fucked left and right>demon army already occupied the city >the supposed samurai troopers squad just noob dickheads that get BTFO by crazy dude (listed as protagonist) What a premier, color me interested
>>285099324Yeah, Green Bro is even in the OP. But I'm afraid Musashi isn't traumatized enough.
>>285098090no, there really wasn't, i lookedbut they did have a collab at least recently where a few of the original characters showed up, i think it was rieyoh, touma mcrowen, and lady kayura, she's a girlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLICFTg1IEoi know most people jackoff saint seiya and call roninroiden a ripoff of it, but i liked it more than ss personallymirei might need 34
>>285095977Only if you are American.
>>285097018WAH WAH WAH WAH
>>285099974Musashi seems to be the designated suffering character. I'm 90% sure that one of the demon generals is his brother who went missing after failing to become a Samurai Trooper.
>>285100270His brother is the orange one by the names of the characters >>285091852But I fear for the Green Bro.
so, any stitches for this episode?
>>285091852Pink is cuteWonder if the show will go full gay or she'll get one of the dudes.
>>285098586The original design is better desu
>>285100425The actual question is if the suits will transform or even combine since the new designer is from mecha. (valvrave, some gundam and some brave)
>>285100441well it's been 35 years in-universe, she's a hag nowthe real question is, where the FUCK did the original team go?
>>285091852I like the original armor designs more, those new looks like shit.
Apparently this was quite a sucessfull series around the time, but just on Japan.39 episodes TV series + 3 OVA sequel.First OVA with 2 episodes, Second OVA with 4 episodes and Third OVA with 5.
>>285095027I was pretty into it too. Had all the toys and everything.
>>285100856all the episodes would be 50 in total.
Alright, this is what I remember my child self understood: There was a super demon guy who had a super demon armor, dude gets sealed and armor gets split on 9 lesser armors. Some people can use those armors, and for some reason 5 were the good guys and 4 were the bad guys.also, the MC had a pet tiger for some reason.
>>285092261>Fujo coded tokusatsuSo just regular tokusatsu. The toku to BL pipeline is not just a meme you know?
>>285096078>we have Otegine at homeHis name is even one vowel off Otegine's stage actor, wow.>>285100441Oh yeah why is the Byakko on the demon side? How much of the new series will be trying to win characters back over to the human side?
>>285100856generally speaking, a 3-cour anime means that it got cancelled partway through, the OVAs were just them trying to cope with it
This argument will eventually come, but I just want to put it out there that it is inspired by BOTH saint seiya and sentai.
>>285100898Makes sense, it's funny how they finish it right in 50 episodes.>>285101038It actually has a nice ending, the OVAs are like a after story. In the 80s things didn't follow the same rules they follow today.>>285100947Overall it's like that, but theres plenty more to it, the plot is a lot more complex as the series goes on. There's the monk that sealed the demon, what are the armors and the white armor.
>>285100071America didn't even get Saint Seiya
>>285101131he's gotta be a sudaca, he probably likes it in the way he likes kofbecause he had free access to it
>>285101131It got green blood Saint Seiya
>>285100891i have this one personallyone of the funny things about it, and i found out it was apparently a common issue, one part of the armor doesn't like to stay on a lot
>Nasty became unmarried hag since she retains her maiden name 35 years later She was a cutie back then, how the fuck none of the OG guys date her at all?
Cutesashi of the Cute!
>>285101498Yagyuu is a historic name, she could have kept it after marriage
>>285101507>of the WaterLame innit? Why do the others get better titles?
>>285101498It's explained on the last 5 OVAs and it's the reason why if its just 35 years, why we haven't seen the original Samurai Troopers and also why the government is involved.
>>285101038This was anime original
>>285096825Because they are monsters in human clothing
>>285091789This was really good but if any show this season needed a two-episode premier it would be this one IMO. Weird place to end it. A bit too subversive with the fake outs and everything, didn't even get to the point in this first episode. Having the next episode would help.
>Red Samurai Man slaughters a bunch of innocent people (not talking about the fake troopers)>He's easily forgiven and becomes the main character>Nobody gives a shit about the civilians he slaughteredWhat the fuck? That's retarded.
>>285101845Welcome to the 80s, babe.
>>285091852Is this Power Rangers?
>>285101845He'll get called out eventually. Probably next episode.
This was better than expected, and despite all the gory killings it didn't feel edgy.Green big bro is cool, and the protag isn't an annoying screeching monkey the PVs made him out to be. The villains being introduced committing mass genocide while the protag is hum-singing a 90's anime song while also murdering civilians is an interesting setup.Also did Gai kill blue boy's grandma at the start? I'm sure that won't lead to conflict later on
>>285101845They haven't forgiven him yet, they also don't have a choice because he was chosen by the powers to be
>>285097996I vaguely recall the original villains being honorable and switching sides. The new ones are psychopaths.
>>285101743that doesn't stop it from getting canceled, see gundam
>>285101845Anime taught me that samurai killing civilians is their favorite hobby. Also, it's allowed by law because shogun is also a cunt.
can someone post the scenes of the demon's body before his armor covers it and his face?
>>285097592Weird tone they're striking here. The promos made it look more childish than the original with the typical anime gag faces and all.
>>285101845Is fine as long as he now kill things for your side.
>>285101959There's too many of them and we know only four get a virtue, so most likely only four of the ten can switch sides.
>>285102241oh, it was Gai, for that scene.
>>285101507That blonde pompom doesn't work. Why does he have it? Makes him look like a dog.
>>285095371>for muh familyHe kills because Orga tells him too which is actually a even worse reason because has no character or he has no agency. I honestly wish he was more of a murder hobo like the guy from Thunderbolt
>>285101959only one of them actually switched sides before the very end
>>285102427>the guy from ThunderboltHey, Io kills for pussy and gets plenty of it.
>>285102452The girl right
>>285102471no, she didn't switch until near the end, it was Shutendouji
>it's an "I resurrected in isekai as the Demon King" animeDROPPED
>>285101776think it had some kind of first 3 episode pre-screening in japan
>>285102142>samurai that actually act like samurai
>>285103244guess that's way the episode title for this was 'Prologue'.
>>285098182Gai is a dork long before entering the Human Realm. With his character development over the course of the show, I honestly think he could also fit in with Symphogear (no offense, since they're both in /m/).
Hopefully he doesn't die and/or the enemy somehow revive him as a demon general of their own. He's a cool aniki
>The bad guys are made out of 10 very skilled and strong generals>The good guys have 5 literal frauds being carried by only 1 competent guy, who for some reason wasn't given the gears to fightTokyo should have been taken over and reduced to rubble in a day
>>285095685because it sucks and the first ep was confusing.Not saying i'll drop it yet, but you have to admit this was a poor first ep. it reminds me of the mess that was lord of mysteries but there is no novel to help you out
>>285104086He has in the OPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHUPdA8H6qkUnless it's another fakeout for the real Green guy that appeared on the PV >>285091852https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loJ05nefclc
>>285104086As it turns out after 35 years of peace the special weapons for fighting demons become props to sell merch.
>>285102925>kicked out of the hero's party isekaiDOUBLE DROPPED
This was pretty fun, surprisingly
>>285091789Damn, that's a real downgrade
>>285094565>sick of Sunrise trope>posts only another one>from a show aired a decade ago
Kinda want to commit a homosexual act.
rip edf grunts
>Gai is a demon prince that likes 80s music>his human heritage qualify for being samurai troopers due to magic crystal >his retainer deliberately shot him and let DST took him >his "righteous" mark activated after him killing fake samurai troopers I'm not sure having morally questionable MC works for new Samurai Troopers but we'll see.
Mediocre CG, my beloved.
>>285103976This guy's gonna be the main green, so big bro is going bye bye sooner than later.
>>285095406>this soldier is FLIPPIN INSANE for killing his enemiesShonenbrained seamonkey meatbot
>>285104855>From my bro Seiji to this AGDQ runner designGross
>>285104734He's more like one of those rough around the edges red sentai leaders imo
>>285097592but theyres no blood
So what's the verdict, am I supposed to watch the original first?
>>285104855Don't know his personality yet so won't comment on that, but from the looks alone he is a straight downgrade from aniki.
>>285105763should be fine to skip if the original doesn't vibe with you, they will exposit the important details when it comes up
>>285105844Some people just have talent for heroic sacrfices. You have to let them do their thing.
Was it just me or does this look very similar to the 2d style used for tbhx? That same type of sharp angles. Did they share any staff?
>>285106810These are Sunrise production, TBHX actually Chinese studio production.None shared staff tho
>>285106840>None shared staff thoPeople trade freelancers all time so the rest of your message doesn't apply but thanks. Must be something else.
>>285104882Important to note that he displays the Psycho Smile when he kills his enemies.
>>285101845my boy dindu nuffin wronghe just can make it up by killing more baddies than civvies
>>285101498In japan, the more prominent family keeps the name, regardless of gender
>>285100414Ditto but for webms.>>285101845>illegal alien slaughters a bunch of innocent people>He's easily forgiven and becomes the main character>Nobody gives a shit about the civilians he slaughtered
>>285105250There's some gore and plenty of blood in other scenes. That's the only one I had at hand tho'.
>>285104902>a fellow SeijifagAniki...
Is the original anything like this?I like everything behind this but not the final product
>>285107195The original is straightforward.
>>285101845Samurai privilege.
Is there a lore reason from the prequel why the armors like 15 year old handsome young men? And males at that
>>285107288It's not universal. Cale, Sekhmet, and Anubis in the original were all older than the five heroes.
It's a Fujita show, was it any funny?>>285104902>Kumagai Kentaro>SeijiI thought this was about seiyuu and thought "wrong Frame member"
>>285107288Each armor is attracted to a virtue that the wearer strongly exhibits.
>character designer did designs for Saber Marionette J
>>285101845complete opposite of shinji ikari where people not only called him out but it was a big talking point
>>285107551>where people not only called him out You mean bullied him for being a depressed teenager with daddy issues?
>>285107786no, touji was angry that his sister was injured collateral for the eva going berserk and shinji's tactless nature in response got him punched againthe only thing that saved shinji from further beatdowns was when he ended up getting taken into the eva unit to experience the battle and shinji's behavior in it for himself
>>285106928its okay to enjoy killing your enemies
>>285107404Thanks, just looked it up and>Gai the murderhobo is resonating with the Armour symbolizing RighteousnessI think the armour's virtue sensors are broken
>>285108105Well, he only killed (or at least... disarmed) a bunch of faggot pretenders after he got de-demonized, so it's OK
>>285108105Nah, he's righteous if the people he killed were unrighteous.
>>285108105You can't philosophize attraction, the armors like what they like.
>>285108105Didn't he just cut their arms off?
>>285108412Maybe he just hates left hands? A right hand extremist?
>>285108105He's perfectly confident in his self-righteousness, a true Red and legitimate heir to the Righteousness bead
>>285108454No, it's because they have the henshin bracelets there.
>>285107371It certainly gave me ironic chuckles
>>285108412Looks quite dead to me, but this IS anime and people have survived worst
So this dude is the Yosuke of this anime
>>285108105that sounds like the typical self-righteous idiot's plight, so it fits
>>285091789Its Sacred Seven all over again. Sunrise, WHY?!Such resources put into complete dogshit show isntead of more Gundam or Mai Hime.
>>285108750They don't really seem to have any injuries other than the missing arms. But then again the entire things seem to be missing, not just the hands and the wrists, so did he just cut them off at the shoulders for shits and giggles?
>>285108750>all of them return as cyborgsI'd laugh.
>>285108793>dogshitWhat makes you think it's bad? >Sacred SevenGave us good memes, so it's fine with me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbbLsN-JJEc
Ok this is pretty good until the ED theme full of ugly ass 3DCG.How are they gonna spin this evil murderer dude into the hero of justice red ranger MC?
this shit mogs kamen rider
>>285108793>Such resources put into complete dogshit show isntead of more GundamYou can count all the good Gundam anime of the past 30 years on one hand
>>285108832Shock collars and odd flavor yakisobas
>>285108816>What makes you think it's bad?it appeals to audience that doesntt exist. Just like NETFLIX apeals to "MODERN audience", same way Sunrise makes a show for fans of retro no one cares about, and not even modernizing it - its deliberately retarded old trops and looks that dont appeal to people
>making /a/ mad since 2026
>>285108750I get that the other four are wannabe heroes but why Gai targeting Musashi as well? Boy did nothing wrong and actually trying to be a hero instead being PR propaganda drone
>>285108848There is nothing that old about this show though, beyond the five man band approach to its hero group and blatantly toyetic designs. Most of it has an air akin to Samurai Flamenco or Kamen Rider Black Sun, very focused on modern ideas.
>>285108871it is NOTHING like Samurai Flamenko, Tanziburo last season etc.Its a show deliberately mimicing old tropes and awake right now neither nostalgia nor interest, just a confusion - why the fuck they though anyone would like it? The ONLY redeeming quality of the show is hyperviolence and great animation resources, but even it wont save it - since everything else weights it down.I did not mention Sacred Seven by chance. It was similar example of failure trying to capitalize on tropes and genres no one actually cares about in that form. Even for fans of Tokukatsu and likes, they long moved on to more modern and better ones.
>>285108832Judging from PV, our pink girl is in charge of electrocute him into submission.
>>285108848>it appeals to audience that doesntt exist.???In what way? You know that fujo will still consume this homobait classic?>looks that dont appeal to peopleThey actually made the chara designs very modern.
>>285108904It's hard to take you seriously as this self-aware analyst of /m/ tropes and their popularity when you opened with a post getting mad that they weren't making more Gundam anime
>>285108848>>285108904Learn English.
>>285108904>it is NOTHING like Samurai FlamenkoYeah, SamFlam was full of spectacular QUALITY and killed the studio. Plus it was a BL anime. You're just being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian.
>>285108904>Even for fans of Tokukatsu and likes, they long moved on to more modern and better ones.Like what? Because the early feeling the first EP gives me feels a lot like Build or Gavv, which are pretty modern toku
>>285091852>thought Musashi gets a shield or something>it's actually a fucking surf board>but he also dual wields daggers? because we can't have a Musashi that doesn'tlmao
>>285108937NTA, but I won't ever complain about the lack of new Gundam anime after having been subjected to G-Cucks. Seeing what 'the old guard' does to Gundam with no repercussions is soul-crushing.
>>285108105It's like deep commentary or something
>>285109040It can double as a shield if it makes you feel better
MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA
>>285109063IBO (S1) was the last good Gundam anime
>>285109040To be fair we don't know if his shield can do AOE protection for himself or his team mates
>>285109148Hathaway's Flash was good. And so was The Origin.
>>285109063A bit out of the loop but what's wrong with it? Skipped watching G-Quu for some reason and never paid attention to it
>>285108922While fujos still exist in droves, it's kind of flip of coin on whether they get attach to a franchise though. Them women are fickle
>>285109190It derails hard and sidelines the 3 protags for more old cast wank (Challia, Char and Lalah, specifically). The tournaments? Didn't matter in the slightest. The love triangle? It was never that, because the autist hobo stalks only Lalah. The alternative UC setting? Never mattered and was never explored in depth. Lalah being a goddess of time and space? Fanfic-tier bullshit.
>>285108105It can fix him.
>>285109183>Hathaway's Flash was goodlol it's garbage nonsense with lame characters aside from Gigi (slutwhore)
Make a Gundam thread if you watch to bitch.I didn't enter this thread read bitching about Gundam. I wanted to see what people thought about troopers
>>285109392the armor is just like me for real
>>285109148>IBO>goodYup, it's impossible to be a gundamtard and not be tasteless.
>>285109039>Because the early feeling the first EP gives me feels a lot like Build or Gavv, which are pretty modern tokuThe show's script writer is Shogo Muto, the same person who did Build so that might be why.
>>285109478You're allergic to Tomino, I get it. >>285109515I agree.>>285109577Bait.
What I got from this thread is that I should basically watch the first iteration of the series and not the remake. I also find the guys better looking in the first version
>>285109654Whatever you watch, post your impressions on /m/.
>>285109654you're just old anon
>>285108848Fujo strong

>>285109695And not the homo thread?
>>285109654It's not a remake, it's a sequel.
>>285109832Only if you have MATERIAL.
>>285109850I don't know what this means
>>285109834Thanks for the correction. I've heard both but I'm not familiar with it and the episode was a bit confusing.
>>285109861
What was the old song they were singing for the invasion? Is it from somewhere else originally or just made up for this show?
>>285109943No thanks. You can look up your own if you want though
>>285091852Looks pozzed, pink is ugly because of mole
>>285109957It's an old and very real songhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83uFs-o1yBAthe version sang by the band in the show will be out on spotify soon I think
>>285108848What are you even on about? Banrise is notorious for taking liberties on old IP's to appeal towards modern audiences; they do it to Gundam all the time. Since you mentioned the Mai series, they would have a field day making it appeal towards the Alphabet Mafia faggots.This is nothing new. It's a business practice that's commonplace. You should know what you're getting into when Scamco is financing the production.
>>285091852Wish the armored versions were their real bodies, I am gay for male armor.
Why did he do it
More.
I think it's hilarious, the VA for gai wanted to be a musician, but then got bit by the acting bug when he found out voice acting was a whole career, because he gets nervous about performing in front of people.So his character randomly sings stuff, lolother interesting things to note:the "brothers" reason for sharing the same last name is gonna be addressed. It's apparently somewhat important to the plot. Interesting that there's also a pair of brothers on the bad guy's side too.Another interesting thing, buckle up, cause the show is gonna deal with a lot of serious conflict.
>tfw the MC is Gay
>>285111588no, he's a Guy
>>285110618He's a fudanshi who prefer yaoi over bara. Gai's demon form was too muscly for him
>>285111572>serious conflictAs in?
>>285110329Interesting that two Onyanko Club songs will feature in this season's anime. This one, and Kimengumi OP.
>>285107160Well, technically, they resurrected everyone Nappa and Vegeta killed on Earth before they all got back to the planet. I don't think those people the demons killed will ever come back.>>285111572>the "brothers" reason for sharing the same last name is gonna be addressed. It's apparently somewhat important to the plot. Aren't they just adopted or from a previous marriage of their parents? They grew up together and Musashi looks to really like his brother. If he ends up as the Earth/Orange Trooper, there's no "Why did I get the position when my brother was a much better choice" or possible jealousy from the older brother. So what's the problem?
Genuinely surprised that character with such designs were nothing but ep.1 cannon fodder.
>>285111572>because he gets nervous about performing in front of people.He posts so many photos of himself on his Twitter that I find it hard to believe. >the show is gonna deal with a lot of serious conflictWell DUH.>>285112115Just wait until he gets resurrected lel.
>>285112115they'll probably revive them but they turn into evil jobbers with 5 minutes of screen time before they get killed again
Well this episode was quite dense with information and implications, this could become a cool ride. I like it so far but I am sure it's not retarded enough to work as background noise so it will probably bomb unless fujo are saving it. I enjoy it a lot so far.
What was Gai referencing when he came out of the portal?
>>285110329Thank you
Any fanart yet?
>>285096642>>285096769>>285100441I like her localized name Mia Koji more imo.
>>285112281If you mean the song >>285110329
>/m/ thread dead as wellI thought this franchise was popular with nostalgiafags?
>>285113871That's it.
>>285109957>>285110329the other song he was singing while killing the fakes was Namida no Request by The Checkers btw
>>285115953>>285109957Because Concrete Revolutio was a commercial success, am I right?Not that I mind, but even pandering to audiophiles is not a guarantee that your anime will do well. Please make him sing Rebecca songs next.This one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLufotnvKFI for maximising the fujobucks.
>>285114861Not much to talk about yet, unless you want to start a gamble ring betting how aniki is going to die.
>>285116464Sucked into some black hole or a road sinkhole only to return as their brainwashed enemy. BTW, the old series still getting new fanart is nice to see.
so what happened to lady kayura
>>285116552She stopped being evil, became a proper lady, and then nobody ever thought about her again.
>>285110674So no women this time around?
>>285091789Unexpected surprise. Let's see if it's as fun as the original.
>>285116896Maybe in S2.
>>285116896Isn't Nezu a girl?
>>285117306The seiyuu is male.
I hope blue never forgives red for murdering his grandma, let the show end with them all defeating the big bad only for him to turn and shank red.
>>285117964Murder manlet will save his life, so all will be forgiven.
>>285107443Kotobuki changed his artstyle long ago (he is Gundam Origin's designer). He even had to relearn his old style for a SM commemorative art he did not long ago.
Fellas is this gay?
>>285118819No, as long as the balls don't touch.
>>285118819It's going to be the gayest magical boy anime since Bouei-bu
>>285116552>>285116881She and the redeemed Demon Generals went back to their home planet.
>>285116881why do they keep ruining evil pussy like this...
>>285118671I wonder what he'll do about the new SM series
>>285119091That reminds me, is picreal female? I can't tell.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2Qcueq9vOMI wonder what kind of armors /a/, /v/, /m/, /co/, and /tg/ would call forth?
>>285119636VA is male, so no.
>>285119724Well, that sucks. Why can't we get an armored female Samurai Tropper/Demon General like Saint Seyia has with its female saints?
>>285120033Well, we used to have >>285116552 >>285118970 just not this time. This is a full sausage fest.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq-D6_MVTYgEven Saint Seiya Omega, the anime original sequel that very few liked had a few good ones.
>>285120213Hell, ff you want to go even further, the remake they had even gender bent Andromeda Shun, which most hated at the start, turned out not to be too bad imo as it was still Shun but with tits. Which I get that's the bigger reason why it was hated over any first impressions of her being a "girlboss."
>Le demon guy from the known evil invaders cunt is not akshually evil.Gay as fuck, Dropped
>>285116881>and then nobody ever thought about her again.that's unfair to say, she was one of the only three st characters to show up in the 2021 langrisser collab
>>285120671Where exactly is the indication that he's not evil?
>>285120558Shun with tits was just a retarded idea when you already had June. I just dropped after the first arc with the military stuff and character assassination of Cassios and never looked back. Also dropped Omega during the second part kinda at the start because the Equuleus kid was insufferable and Pallas stuff was just boring. And I tend to keep up to date with everything Saint Seiya only not reading Dark Wing and G Requiem but someday I will. I just wish I remember more stuff of Samurai Troopers when I watched as a kid. I sure remember Kayura being hot but I really can't remember the supposed main girl >>285113836 >>285096642
>>285117880>white tiger still alive and kicking >for some reason Ryo (the sidekick boy from OG series) being fatfuck adult
>>285121281*JunSorry mixed up names, but with that tiger still around does that imply MC is at least alive somewhere
>>285120859>Shun with tits was just a retarded idea when you already had June.Except June isn't part of the five bronze saints and was barely in the show as she exists for the sole purpose of proving Shun isn't gay, even with the scene with him "warming up Hyoga." If June had more importance, then maybe she would be Andromeda over a gender bent Shun.>I sure remember Kayura being hot but I really can't remember the supposed main girlThat isn't a surprise since outside of being the brains of the Samrai Troopers, she was more or less Jun's babysitter. It doesn't help that she's a plan Jane compared to Kayura.
>>285121281>>285121361White Blaze isn't an ordinary Tiger, as he was around fighting side by side with Kos, which was over a thousand years ago. He also had a shadow opponent, Black Blaze, which he transformed into whenever Ryo summoned the Inferno Armor.
>>285121578Ah yes, Kos
>>285121696Some say Kosm
>>285121696>>285121905It's the Ancient One for me, idgf if you call me a dubfag.
>>285121535>>285120859Female!Hyoga was the only true good option here. >mommy issues>father issues with her Master
>>285092086>americanized versionSurprisingly wasn't americanized all that much, considering the era it was dubbed in. Even kept in all the Japanese names, albeit with fucked up pronunciation ("RIGH-oh").
>>285122250Ocean Group's dubs were generally good but the extra sound effects they added can be nauseating. It plagues the English dubs of Gundam 0079 and Char's Counterattack.
>>285122250>>285122435The OVA actually kept Ryos' proper pronunciation, and despite the different names of the rest of the Ronin Warriors, they all kept their Samurai Troopers surname. If the new Samrai Troopers get a dub, I hope it's as good as Ocean Groups and brings back some of the active VAs.
>>285121535>If June had more importance, then maybe she would be Andromeda over a gender bent Shun.She could be part of the bronze saints then. Ikki is barely in the story anyway so they could just keep his appearances like the manga and have June earlier with the other 4 against the Silver saints and have her face Milo instead of Hyoga and maybe distract Saga before Ikki comes back from Virgo and gets annihilated so hard he only comes back in PoseidonBut anyway, the 3D remake was just a boring version of the original with a lot of lame original stuff and couldn't even get the damage of the cloths or on the saints to show the battles were something. I think they didn't even have the headpieces on them for some reason.
>>285102412Making him look like a puppy is entirely intentional, I'm sure.
>>285123716But why do all of that when they can just keep the og cast? It's a safer option, even if it's the lazy one. The remake, as you said, was dull, but making Shun a girl was the least of its issues. Besides, Shina would've been a better choice as they could have changed her from being a silver saint into a bronze saint and could have made the love triangle between her and Saori more of a presence for the drama. That and Shina is more popular than June, even if she has no connection to Shun.
>>285122250>Even kept in all the Japanese names, albeit with fucked up pronunciationNot the anon you were replying to but the dub I watched renamed the vast bulk of the cast. Out of all of them, only Ryo, Kayura and Badamon's names were unchanged. Every other character but them had a different name.
>>285124465See >>285122823 yes, the majority of the cast had new names, but none of them were Americanized names, and some were pretty close to each other, such as Sage/Seji. And again, in the OVAs, they all kept the same last names they had in Samurai Troppers like Ryo was still Sanada. Compared to something like Pokémon, Samrai Troppers had minimal changes in localization, iirc, and most of the demon world lore was a bit easier to digest for the western viewers.
>>285124725>but none of them were Americanized names, and some were pretty close to each other, such as Sage/Seji That was really the only one that was kind of similar. And yeah, I wouldn't say they were "americanized", I usually use "westernized". Still, I personally have come to despise the dub names. Especially when it comes to the four Masho. The renaming robs those characters of their surface level themes.
ahh shi Ronin WarriorsGive me a mother fuckin'>ENTER
>Violent as fuck>MC is a murdering asshole psychopath so far>Colorful as fuck and decently animatedI'm sold. This is gonna be a good show
>>285124917already better than the sunrise show last season
>>285097142Just her mom was french. Her dad is the japanese one. The son of her grandfather from the original show.>>285121535>It doesn't help that she's a plan Jane compared to Kayura. >>285120859>I sure remember Kayura being hotI'm going to ruin it for the both of you. Kayura, despite chronologically being 400+ years old, was physically 12. They don't really advertise it in the show itself, but literally everyone of the cast that was Human, except for Dr. Yagyu, Jun's parents and Kaos, were all children. The Troopers, the Masho, Kayura, Nasti and Jun. All of them were kids.
>>285124285Yeah, I just wanted to change as little as possible from the original story with June. Even though Shaina is a secondary character, she's still very important. Hard to "downgrade" her when she was somewhat of a "mirror" to Marin that was a silver saint, master to a bronze one. So I don't know if I would want that many changes from the original. Although like I said, I already didn't like the new stuff they did to the 3Dremake so I don't trust them. If anything, I wish Shaina had a bigger role as a mentor and as a fighter in Omega. Maybe even going against the new golds to help the kids. Even got mad she was a tad shafted in ND considering the big bad is an Ophiuchus gold saint but was funny to see her getting smacked by Marin.>>285125081>I'm going to ruin it for the both of you. Kayura, despite chronologically being 400+ years old, was physically 12. Well, I was like 10 back then.
>>285091789I loved the original, the very first toy I bought with my own money was one of those fuckers, the white armor one. thought I was kinda expecting this to be a remake of the original, not a sequel.
>>285125081>The Troopers, the Masho, Kayura, Nasti, and Jun. All of them were kids.Noone brought up the age but you, anon, it's like talking about the ages of Usagi and the Sailor Guardians.>mfw talking about Kayura being12 physically or Natsie being 16 or 14 on /a/ no less.
>>285125144>thought I was kinda expecting this to be a remake of the original, not a sequel.You can treat it like both a sequel and a reboot, as one of the main themes that isn't brought up is the fight against evil demon's sprits vs the samurai with guiding virtues is an endless battle.
>>285125081I could've sworn Nasti was in college
ok hand over the doujins, I know you have them
>>285125176>Noone brought up the age but you, anonI can see that.>>285125264>I could've sworn Nasti was in collegeIf she was (which is plausible she could've been since she was 18 at the time of the original show) it would seem she dropped out and moved to Japan after Arago's attack on Shinjuku. Only reason she was in Japan in the first place was because she was visiting her grandfather, a university professor. That could be why you thought she was a student.
>>285124830>Still, I personally have come to despise the dub names. Especially when it comes to the four Masho. The renaming robs those characters of their surface-level themes.Maybe it's a nostalgic thing, but I never had much of a problem with the name changes of the four Demon Generals/Dark Warlords since, despite the names not fitting their themes, they still had their proper titles as Warlords. Shuten Doji, as Anubis, is the Warlord of Curley, and the Oni is a cruel beast. Anubis, as Kale is the Warlord of Corruption as well as Darkness, you can say that while mentioning death is not an issue, his being not only the demon of death but also named after the Egyptian god of death is the reason for the name swap between the two. Naaza being changed to Sekhmet is an interesting one, as another Egyptian name of war, destruction, plagues, as well as healing and snake venom can be used for healing as well as poison. Lastly is Rajura, which I'm not sure how the name is related to Spiders or the act of confusion or deception, so the same can be said of the name Dais, still being the Warlord of Illusion still keeps his theme the same as his Demon General counterpart.Now, you might still disagree with what I posted, but I think, as far as the names of the Dark Warlords/Masho, Ochen Studios did their research for the most part for any changes they had to do for the names back then.
>>285107288>Is there a lore reason from the prequel why the armors like 15 year old handsome young men? And males at thatThere isn't. The only reason why the protags from the original show had them when they did was because of their core-defining personality traits aligned with the virtues imbued with the armors. Kaos was able to see into their spirits and so, knowing Arago was going to attack, gave them their armors a year before the events of the original series to prepare. >>285107312>Cale, Sekhmet, and Anubis in the original were all older than the five heroesOnly chronologically. Physically, Shuten Doji, Anubis, Naaza and Rajura were all ranging from ages 15 to 17 because that's how old they were when Arago recruited them and gave them their armors. Either by Arago's power, or perhaps the effects of mortal being living in the Yoja world, they just stopped aging from that point on and were effectively immortal.
>>285125345>a university professor. That could be why you thought she was a studentyeah that's probably it
>>285125272old team has a lot but you'll have to travel to nippon for it. New team hasn't the time to grow a fanbase yet
>>285091789I got some old school feelings from this. Fun surprise.
>>285125488>Ochen Studios did their research for the most part for any changes they had to do for the names back then.I don't think they did any research in the slightest. Of all the name changes, the changes of the generals seem the most superfluous. >Shuten Doji, as Anubis, is the Warlord of Curley, and the Oni is a cruel beast. Anubis, as Kale is the Warlord of Corruption as well as Darkness, you can say that while mentioning death is not an issue, his being not only the demon of death but also named after the Egyptian god of death is the reason for the name swap between the twoShuten Doji, in japanese myth/folklore, being basically king-shit of the Oni and that being reflected in the armor's design and it's name. Changing him to have Anubis' name is highly questionable. Anubis, being the Egyptian god of death, represented by a jackal, which is also present in the armor's design and even the armor's crest/insignia. Not to mention that the armor is also capable of controlling the dead, further aligning with the theme. >Naaza being changed to Sekhmet is an interesting one, as another Egyptian name of war, destruction, plagues, as well as healing and snake venom can be used for healing as well as poisonI think the association with Sekhmet and poisons was a stroke of luck on their part. But the base theme with Naaza was serpents which is also majorly where his being the Armor of Poison comes from. He's named after Naga, half human/half serpent creatures rooted in Hinduism. Their also being aquatic additionally lends to him being the counterpart to Shin and the Suiko armor.> Lastly is Rajura, which I'm not sure how the name is related to Spiders or the act of confusion or deceptionHis is arguably the least tying into myth. His name is derived from the word "Ranthula", with "Rajura" probably being the closest pronunciation the Japanese can muster. Ranthula is a south american (I don't know what language precisely) word for Tarantula, hence spiders.
I just finished episode 1. It was really good. I actually feel frustrated I have to wait a week for more. So what's the deal with the green Samurai Trooper? The outro shows the guy with short brown hair will be picking up the mantle of the green armor but promotional material shows another character with longer, purple hair seemingly eventually becoming the main owner of the green armor.
>>285125873>So what's the deal with the green Samurai Trooper?No idea. Some think Ryusei is going to die and Shion is filling in. I'm not really of that mind. Given what's just happened, my guess is that Ryusei is just called back for basically desk duty since the DST's headquarters got fucked and Shion is the guy that Ryusei knows can do the job as promotional material mentions they were old colleagues. And also that Ryusei acts as the "big brother" to the whole group.
>>285119636Female enough for me.
I'm always disappointed with cruchysubs. Would it kill them to translate whatever song red was singing? Miner nitpick but if a character says a word in English keep it in the translation.
>>285125272I'm sorry anon, I lost them and most of the old links are dead.
>>285125971I like him. I hope he stays alive.
>>285126032>Would it kill them to translate whatever song red was singing?Isn't that basically their half-assed solution to dealing with copyrighted songs in an anime?
>>285126122I think it's probably guidance from their style guide. If it was a real issue they would just cover up the audio.
>>285126032>watching on crunchyroll>complaining about copyright censorshipImagine paying money to have your media sanitized by a Californian corporation. You are experiencing the "miner nitpick" of your own making because you refuse to learn how to torrent like an adult. Of course they didn't translate the song; they don't have the license, and they don't care about your experience. Go back to Nyaa and stop crying about the service you voluntarily pay for, paypig.
>>285126269Look at this guy implying the torrents aren't just rips of cr as well.
>>285126269Anon all the stuff on Nyaa is rips from CR.
>>285125873>>285125971It's probably the age thing. They mentioned the armor prefer 15 year olds so most of the cast is around that age. Ryusei seems like he's a bit older so maybe he's getting less power from the armors or something? So he pass the armor to Shion, who is likely a little younger than him.Japan is also worried because he's called Oda as a reference to Oda Nobunaga, who was infamously betrayed and did not have a good end.
>>285126532>It's probably the age thing. They mentioned the armor prefer 15 year olds so most of the cast is around that ageIt's the prime age for unlocking it, but that seemingly never stopped the OGs from using theirs past that age. But then again, these new ones might operate on not the exact same conventions as we have no idea why and how there are new suits of armor seeing as the only person left alive who could forge magical suits of armor doesn't live on Earth.>Japan is also worried because he's called Oda as a reference to Oda Nobunaga, who was infamously betrayed and did not have a good end.Indeed. Ryusei is a fictional descendant of Nobunaga (which is an odd choice because he actually has living descendants today) just as Shion is a fictional descendant of Ishida Mitsunari, who lost the battle of Sekigahara (the climax of the Warring States period).What I'd really like to see of Ryusei is that (if they make an appearance) he gets picked to wear the Oni armor and becomes the successor to Shuten Doji and the Demon Generals get restored to their full compliment.
>>285126532>Japan is also worried because he's called Oda as a reference to Oda Nobunaga, who was infamously betrayed and did not have a good end.What if he betrays them first this time?
>>285093634Original show was pretty violent. The American version came out right around the same time as TeknoMan where violence is okay against nonhumans, and was syndicated besides.
>>285101038It wasn't cancelled, it was fucking huge at its time. Broke all Captain Tsubasa records in the Comiket with the fujos.
>>285126636It's a bit early but Ryusei doesn't seem like the betraying sort.If anyone is committing treason it's blue boy here
>>285126779I wouldn't say that he'll betray the group. Just that he'll get mad and try to kill Gai. But ultimately his defining virtue (wisdom) will keep him from going through with it because there are bigger concerns beyond his potential grudge against Gai.
>has a dumb nekketsu catchphrase he uses before slaughtering peopleI like it.
>>285126779That'd be too obvious.
>>285118819As gay as any /m/ show.

>>285091789Maybe I'm mindbroken by isekai making up 75% of every recent season, but the the fake troopers reminded me of isekai villains. You know, the ones that kick the real hero out of the party. It was isekai-coded if you will.

New Character PV for our favorite murderhobo, it has some upcoming sceneshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrhd19jt82w
Anyone have the US subtitle file to share/link in the thread? The public torrents on TPB have the video but not the subtitles unfortunately for the 1080 version.Also, does anyone happen to know if/when a US dub will be available? I've been a huge fan of Ronin Warriors since it aired on Toonami originally and even when the dubs were released in the early 2000s of the OVAs.I really hope they'll get back some of the original VAs if for at least flashback scenes of the original Ronin Warriors/Dark Warlords. Also Mina Mina, the voice of Talpa is still alive, but he's in his 90s and possibly retired. This is super exciting for Sunrise to bring back something like this from the past!

Red is a Sanada, Blue is Uesugi and Yellow and Aqua are Hojos (the later clan.)The OG series had Sanada, Date, Mori, and Hashiba (Toyotomi) and a token chink named Shu (written with the same kanji as Hide)
>>285131208https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren_(philosophy)
>>285130934>if/when a US dub will be availableProbably never. Crunchy dubs only popular shows. Maybe if it partners with another company for the disc release, but I wouldn't count on that.
>>285131208he's reducing the number of soda flavored yakisoba in the world, so yes.
>>285131229Its still Sunrise which should be popular enough. Plus, I was just looking over the Ocean Group and seeing their projects, it says they are semi-active and do some 'big' properties, they did some Crunchy things, so I hope they do the US dub and hopefully get back some of the original cast. It was actually very nice to see that happen between the time of the original US dub which appeared in the mid 90s to when they dubbed the OVAs (mid 2000s) but I saw the OVAs for the first time in the early 2010s. Some of the voices were fine, but others you can tell they've aged/voices are shot or the VAs forgot how to do the original voices.
I can't figure out who my favorite trooper will be. Light blue is my favorite color and I like Musashi's heart, but righteousness is probably my favorite virtue of the armors (Gai) and Gai's armor looks incredible, but Kaito has light blue hair and has a nice practical mind that seems to reign in Gai's temperament and that is appealing too. Argh... this is too hard.
>>285131506Give the show some time to display more character interactions and personality, but I'm personally also leaning towards Kaito and Gai

>>285131306I think even if they do an English dub, fat chance they'll use Ocean unless some catastrophic SAG AFTRA strike happens (again). Most of the Gundam dubs have been with NYAV Post since 2010s, including the redub of Seed.

>>285125764>I don't think they did any research in the slightest. Of all the name changes, the changes of the generals seem the most superfluous.I disagree; they wouldn't try to have names that somewhat fit otherwise outside of Anubis. I'm with you on how weird it was to not name him Shuten Doji, other than the significance of his name. >I think the association with Sekhmet and poisons was a stroke of luck on their part. But the base theme with Naaza was serpents, which is also where his being the Armor of Poison comes from. He's named after Naga, half human/half serpent creatures rooted in Hinduism. Their also being aquatic additionally lends to him being the counterpart to Shin and the Suiko armor.I get the significance of Naza being of Naga myth and having been aquatic in nature is why he's paired up with Shin as an antagonist. I still believe Sekhmet was intended rather than a stroke of luck, since they could just name him Naga to be a more literal translation, but might lose out on the poison theme. >His is arguably the least tying into myth. His name is derived from the word "Ranthula", with "Rajura" probably being the closest pronunciation the Japanese can muster. Ranthula is a south american (I don't know what language precisely) word for Tarantula, hence spiders.Now that you explain it, I understand better with his name, I feel like Naaza, they likely didn't know of a way to fit in the Tarantula pun in his name and went with something unrelated, I'll concede that both Anubis and Dias makes the less sense when it came to the names and I would have love to see an interview regarding the localization process between both versions.Overall, I simply feel Ocean Studios was unsure if the viewer would understand the myths behind the names, as this was aired as part of a Saturday Morning Cartoon format and considering the early dubs of DBZ and Sailor Moon, I felt this one ended up the best since the voice work was very good despite the name changes.
>>285101326>Paying to watch an anime Lmao, and I'm not even a thirdworlder
>>285131229>>285131306>>285131922Even if there is no Ocean Studios, it would be a disservice to not hire back David Kaye as the narrator, or not to have Matt Hill to voice Ryo of Wildfire.
>>285126032>>285126122The song is translated in CR Spanish and Portuguese subs. Who knows why it isn't translated in English one.

>>285134995At least G Reco was an AU, not some AU-UC chimera Char and co. fanfic wank. Tomino at least has moved on and tried telling new stories, unlike his aging fanboys in the anime industry.
>>285131824>>285135100Shun gets a bad rep for being the most sensitive among the bronze saints and as the gayest moments (lol warping his legs around Hyoga), but when it counts, he ends up becoming very badass imo.
>>285135126>At least G Reco was an AU, not some AU-UC chimera Char and co. fanfic wank.It's technically UC adjacent since there are UC elements to it, like Turn-A, such as having Zakus in it.
>>285135183I see the problem being that Shun and Hyoga have too little screentime and their personalities aren't as pronounced as Seiya's, Shiryu's and Ikki's. And of course, boys don't want to be associated with an effeminate boy in pink armor who would rather not fight pointlessly.
>>285135221>having Zakus in itSEED has them too - does it make it UC? >https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/ZGMF-1000/A1_Gunner_ZAKU_Warrior
>>285135295Yeah, which is why I get the remake, as dull as it was, wanted Shun to be a girl because it not only added a girl to the team and used an unexpected waifu among the main five. Still, I stand by my clam the Shun has pretty cool moments despite having the last fans outside of fujos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsFJTCJrwEI
>>285135399The lack of a mask ruins fem Shun. These woke retards never understood that the greek gods have flaws an Athena's is vanity.
>>285135295Funny since he took quite a bit of screen time in Next Dimension along with Saori. If anything, Ikki is the one who barely appears in the manga but he sure does make an impression every time.>>285135399I forgot to point out the obvious fuck up of making Shun a girl if the they went on with the story and get to Hades arc since he's Hades' vessel
>>285135338Those are knock-offs, though, plus G-Reco floated out mentions UC era as the last era that they wish to avoid going back to, meanwhile Turn-A was literally Zakus called Borjarnons and Capules called Kapools.
>>285135480>The lack of a mask ruins fem Shun. These woke retards never understood that the greek gods have flaws an Athena's is vanity.You are way too late to complain about that after Omega, anon.>>285135481>I forgot to point out the obvious fuck up of making Shun a girl if the they went on with the story and get to Hades arc since he's Hades' vesselThat's an easy fix, just make Hades a woman or have someone else be the vessel, but I doubt the remake went as far as Hades' arc.
>>285091789man in the 90s this show had some really cool toys here in Brasil
>>285133203>Even if there is no Ocean Studios, it would be a disservice to not hire back David Kaye as the narrator, or not to have Matt Hill to voice Ryo of Wildfire.Yesssss!!Dave Kaye came back as The Ancient One in the OVA, his voice sounded great, but its just a flashback role which precedes even the events of the original series (YST/Ronin Warriors) and he speaks only a few lines.In the download, I've only seen the first few seconds where it looks like there is a narrator attempting to explain a flashback of the original series; too bad my file doesn't have subtitles but it would be nice to hear Kaye be the narrator again.Matt Hill's voice sounds a little choppy/off but he still has that 'surfer dude'-voice in the OVAs, it would be great to hear him again too. The other characters like Michael Donavan and especially Ward Perry sound REALLY off (for voicing Rowen/Touma). I have no idea why the hell they have Matt Smith voicing Sage/Seiji which he never did in the original series; he was voiced by Donavan who they had so the switch-up wasn't great. Matt Smith was awesome as Dais, the Warlord of Illusion.I know there's new characters in the new series but it's clear that there are homages and even scenes with some of the previous characters so I really do hope they'll have flashback scenes or even updates on the original characters.Hopefully they get Mina Mina back to do Talpa, assuming he can still do it and isn't retired or worse. He provided a fantastically evil/scary/funny voice for Talpa; it reminded me sometimes of the local ice cream men; sounded like a strange hybrid Egyptian/Dutch accent with the maniacally evil laugh and the voice effects they did for him with the folks at Ocean.
>>285135590>>285135480I find it funny about the masks is that Saori never cared about them so Yuna talking about them and saying she won't wear one is a bit pointless considering Saori couldn't give a single fuck if she wears it or not. At least made her master a badass when she removed it against the 3 Silver Saints saying that she'll kill them all (and probably died along since she was never mentioned again).Yuzuriha in Lost Canvas at least tried to wear one in the Sanctuary even if she didn't want to. After Sanctuary including ND, Saori ever cared if Shaina had her mask or not and in spin offs like Saintia Sho, the whole order of female saints that work directly under Saori herself don't wear masks. Although technically, Shoko was never a Saintia since she only got the regular Saint training and never the maid/caretaker one.Personally, I like the masks since it gives them more of a badass image like Marin. Certainly better than what they did to Shaina in the 3Dseries...>spoilerBoth options would be very controversial to say the least since the whole point of Shun being the way he is because of that.
>>285133176did you have high speed internet during the late 80s and early 90s or some shit with all them pirate websites available or are you talking about "knights of the zodiac" lmaobecause if you had all that in the 80s or had access to bootleggers of anime back then i'd like to know your dealer so when i time travel back there i'd like to make arrangements
>>285091852Wtf is green wearing.
>>285137686LARPing as a Scot.
>>285136850That was back in the days when people would buy those VCR recorded VHS tapes and sell/redistribute them on eBay. I remember those good old days! I got BIG into Ronin Warriors and would record the original Toonami airings and share them with friends while they were looking for VHS tapes of Sailor Moon and the big anime explosion that hit the US in the 90s.That was also back in the days when you could find some of those pirated websites themed with full on Jappo anime with US subs (I remember watching some DBZ episodes like this because Funimation was still either dubbing them or the issue with Ocean turning it over to them around this time). I loosely remember that "knights of the zodiac" or heard about it but didn't people mean Saint Seya (sp.)?
>>285131216>Anon all the Samurai troopers are named after daimyo.It doesn't extend to just the troopers.>Ryo is a descendant of Sanada Nobushige (Yukimura). >Seiji is a descendant of Date Masamune. >Shin is a descendant of Mori Motonari. >Toma is a descendant of Toyotomi Hideyoshi (from when he had the Hashiba surname before Nobunaga died). >Nasti is a descendant of Yagyu Mitsuyoshi (Jubei)And even with the Demon Generals;>Anubis is a kinsman to Sasaki Kojiro>Naaza is kinsman to Yamauchi Kazutoyo>Rajura is kinsman to Kuroda KanbeiAnd then with the new cast;>Shion is a descendant of Ishida Mitsunari>Kaito is a descendant of Uesugi Kenshin>Yamato and Musashi are descendants (or at least one of them is given that they're step-brothers) of Hojo Ujiyasu>Ryusei is a descendant of Oda Nobunaga.>and a token chink named ShuXiu Li-huang is canonically a descendant of Minamoto no Yoshitsune. There's an old popular story in japan (which they know is not true due to historical records) about how Yoshitsune left Japan for the mainland and after getting there he eventually became Genghis Khan. The creators of the show went with this so that's how Xiu still has samurai heritage despite being born in China.>>285136560>Hopefully they get Mina Mina back to do TalpaIsn't he dead?
>>285140224>>Hopefully they get Mina Mina back to do Talpa>Isn't he dead?If he is, it would be news to me but sadly I wouldn't be surprised. All I know is that on IMDB it looks like he stopped doings roles in the 2010s, his birthday is in June and he's in his 90s now; kind of weird that Ronin Warriors was really one of the few forays he had into animation though he does/did acting roles. He has a really cool voice if you ask me. I hope he's alive and I hope somehow he has the strength/energy to do Talpa again especially with that wicked laugh.I hope the other Dark Warlord VAs come back too. I really liked Anubis (Shuten Doji); easily one of the best evil-to-good character redemptions, ever. More of his backstory would be nice in the new series, though they had flashbacks of who he was and his humanity in the original series.
>>285140371>If he is, it would be news to me but sadly I wouldn't be surprisedLooking at shit, I might've been confusing him with his japanese VA, who has been dead since 98.>More of his backstory would be nice in the new series, though they had flashbacks of who he was and his humanity in the original series.I doubt they'd dive into his backstory given his character isn't really relevant in the new series. And also because his backstory, as well as the other Demon Generals, are all covered in the info-books and audio dramas. It's how we know that Shuten Doji's real name is Toshitada Koma, Anubis' is Sasaki Kujuro, Naaza's is Yamauchi Naotoki and Rajura's is Kuroda Jirogoro. Where and when they were born and how they were recruited by Arago is all covered in that stuff.
>>285095977You take that back.
>>285140224Also, forgot to point out that some of their choices, like with Masamune and Nobunaga, for example, are odd considering they still have documented living descendants to this day.
>>285140537https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0590875/?ref_=ttfc_fcr_3_20 He doesn't have a website or anything, may be too 'new' given his age and was probably near retirement at the end of the 90s btu I certainly hope not. I tried to find that episode of the X Files of him and will have to see Eastern Promises where hes an actor in both of them.I really do wish the US dub got those audio dramas in English with more of the backstory. The recent anniversary artbook was really cool with lots of info that came out last year, who would have known it was right before the series resurrection which is even cooler and I hope more people check out or become aware of the original series, it is easily my favorite anime, ever made. Thanks for the info on the connection to the Japanese clans, I knew about this previous with the 5 warriors but didn't know of the connection to the 4 generals/masho and now with the new cast of characters. I have a question to ask regarding the Japanese version and the US but let me see if the spoiler tag works before I ask; over the years it has been extremely rare to see a Ronin Warriors/YST thread on 4chan so I'm glad there is one now and its so active, hopefully there will be more too.testing it on this board
>>285140819>>285140537Okay, great, it looks like it works.My question is regarding the US dub and the original Japanese version which I've seen the latter a few times, but I remember hearing about this I think on a rare thread here in the past but haven't been able to find more info regarding if its true or not, or something between the subs/dub:in the very last episode as Talpa is absorbing Ryo and the Inferno Armor, I read that it was only in the US version that Anubis/his spirit talks to Ryo to give him advice to defeat Talpa; "Wildfire, listen to your spirit and understand/it will guide you" but I believe this isn't the case in the Japanese version? Is that something only that happens in the dub and not the original series or was that something they 'added'? I really liked it because I love Anubis/Shuten's character I'm not sure what to believe since there were also the fan subs before the official DVD release in the early 2000s that had the US version on one side and the original Japanese version on the other side.Also, I did see the character/artwork/pencil sketches of apparently what Talpa/Arago looked like before he lost his humanity; is there more info on that other than the recent artbook that was released last year? I fell in love with the series so much that I bought nearly all of those Japanese special artbooks because I wanted to learn how to draw the characters then and they had artwork which was never before seen in the series, such as like Anubis/Shuten using a samurai sword in his armor with his helmet off.I know that RetroCrush will air the US and the Japanese versions every 6 months or so; the US version just wrapped up a few days ago, in fact they did an abridged version in December, then I think on the 28th the marathoned the whole US dub and the OVAs. I gotta re-watch the sub again and am super excited about this new series also that there are clear references to the original series with the new characters as well.
>>285141079>in the very last episode as Talpa is absorbing Ryo and the Inferno Armor, I read that it was only in the US version that Anubis/his spirit talks to Ryo to give him advice to defeat Talpa; "Wildfire, listen to your spirit and understand/it will guide you" but I believe this isn't the case in the Japanese version?I rewatched the series in sub for the first time last month in preparation for the squeal and no,that doesn't happen. Ryo bonds with Arago of his own will to render Arago vulnerable by basically overwhelming him with the Kikotei's power and the human virtues of the combined armors that counteract and inhibit the armors from taking over. So yeah, it was something they added.>Also, I did see the character/artwork/pencil sketches of apparently what Talpa/Arago looked like before he lost his humanity; is there more info on that other than the recent artbook that was released last year?I don't know. I've been trying to find that stuff myself but if they've been scanned it must be within specific web communities that I've yet to find. Much of the info I do possess does come from people who have these materials, but I've yet to get my hands on the sources themselves beyond the shows and the OVAs.
>>285122823>brings back some of the active VAs.>Implying Jewchyroll will ever roll out the shekels for Canadians
>>285132136But green uses a big sword.
>>285093752I'm remember being aware of the toys but I have no idea where it actually aired on TV
>>285143984It was aired on cable networks. First USA and Sci-fi in the mid 90s. Then on Cartoon Network from 98 to the early 2000s. That was it. It had toys released by Playmates (which were just rebrands of the ones made by Takara), but it was never openly marketed. At the time the best bet you could find them was on KBToys before they got shut down. From then on it was Ebay from people who still had them.
Does anyone here know if any of the English VAs have said anything on social media (or their agents) regarding the new series/expressing interest, or news about it?
>>285145831no, kill yourself
>>285145980
>>285145831I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even know about it.
>>285138515The nips are degenerates
How are the new characters wearing the original armors when said original armors were destroyed in the horrible second OVA?
>>285147675Didn't they come back in the 3rd OVA?
>>285147692No, the third OVA had some crazy psycho bitch forcing the main cast in a set of five new armors, which were pretty fugly and didn't actually get used for anything other than showing off they existed.
>>285147675>How are the new characters wearing the original armorsThey're not. They are wearing different armors. They even have different names. For example, Ryo's armor is Rekka. Gai's armor is Shakunetsu.>>285147735>the third OVA had some crazy psycho bitch forcing the main cast in a set of five new armorsShe was a spiteful ghost who was angry at the world because the shogunate put her and her parents to death for putting on stage plays based on prophetic visions of what would be the events of the original series.>which were pretty fuglyYeah nah, they are FAR better looking than the original suits.
>>285147943>Yeah nah, they are FAR better looking than the original suits.Agree to disagree, those look pretty awful.
>>285147943kek those look retardedlike a car that has different colored parts
>>285147943Why so much grey? I think there's more grey each suit than the iconic colors.
>>285147943nah, those are absolutely shitonly orange and dark blue look even slightly good
>>285147987>>285148014>>285148241I like how they seem more uniformed. Like they're clearly part of a set, but there's ample differences to set them apart from one another and be unique. That and the more emphasis on curvature than straight lines and angles. They look more organic (for lack of a better term) than blocky. Which is a problem the sequel suits badly have. But yeah, the Message suits just look better. Almost closer to real armor. Even though theirs are still pretty exaggerated and not really at all realistic.Plus, they also get those outer garments, which make them look even more based.
>>285146514>I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even know about it.And when will someone let them know that it's here and that they all need to come back to do it?
>>285149428>And when will someone let them know that it's hereWho knows?>and that they all need to come back to do it?Do they though? I don't think they do.

>>285153756Not sure if Gai even kill the granny, all he does when blue guy questioned him just staring menacingly then fucked off.Also he prefers torn off bodies, granny doesn't lost any limbs
>>285147943Did they even consider releasing toys of those armors? Any market research would tell they were pretty worse than the original. The original had pretty great toys.
>>285154332He still lopped off the head of the first guy at minimum
>>285147943So if they ever come back will it be on those armors?
>>285153148He was a demon at the time he was killing civilians, at least when he killed as a human, those guys were assholes posing as Samrai Troopers.
>>285154322>He didn't contribute much.Maybe not, but it reeks of his influence.
>>285156999I hope so, as we didn't see them do much with them, we can assume it's a supercharged version of the attacks they had with the original armor, but we never see them fight with it in Message.
>>285109063>Khara>old guard

For anyone interested, Retrocrush is airing the US dub of Ronin Warriors; they have a 2 hour block starting now of 4 episodes, just started 15 minutes ago, which means they'll probably be re-airing the abridged series ~24 hours from now around the same timehttps://www.retrocrush.tv/livetvThe episode playing now is The Legend of the Armor which is Dais vs. Kento attempting to trick the latter to join the Evil Dynasty and surrender his armor
>>285162226>This title is not available in your location
>>285162387If you're in the US and have a SmartTV (usually Samsung), RetroCrush is one of the free internet over-the-air smart channels; it may be 4207 for you. The link above is also for the same RetroCrush channel. I know that RetroCrush and the CrunchyRoll channels sometimes will play either the US dub or the Japanese sub of Ronin Warriors/Samurai Troopers, sometimes both, from time to time.Armor of Life is now airing (2nd of the block) which is Anubis attempting to fight the Ronin Warriors before his evil-to-good redemption arc!I hope the new series does flashbacks/recalls to Anubis (Shuten), easily one of the best characters, ever!
>>285162387Yeah, same here. Maybe I can try with a VPN but I'm from Brazil.I remember I could watch the CityHunter marathon that happened on youtube. It was also them as well, right?
>>285163224>CityHunterOn the same RetroCrush channel guide, it says that in 18 hours from now (for me), unless RetroCrush is airing these at the same universal time will be CityHunter: .357 Magnum (English Dubbed), then CityHunter BayCityWars, and another CityHunter; RetroCrush lets you see what will be airing up to 24 hours outward (going forward).US dub of Ronin Warriors airing now, one more episode for today after Armor of Life, and then another one. Looks like tomorrow is a ~5 hour block of CItyHunter so they'll likely finish this Ronin Warriors iteration next week during the weekdays. RetroCrush is pretty awesome; I think their 'source' files are from the release of the official DVDs/BluRays of Ronin Warriors released a few years ago.
>>285120558It made things funny when she and June fought Aphrodite. Apparently there were plans for Aphrodite to be the token woman of the Gold Saints in the CGI Show originally, but the producers admitted after the Shun backlash they decided to keep Aphrodite a man. So you have fan jokes that Aphrodite is a misogynist flaming gay guy that beats up teenage girls.
>>285135590Eugene Son said he made Shun a girl also to see how "interesting" the Hades arc would be that way, so I guess Hades wouldn't mind possessing a girl in that version. It's cancelled anyway so rejoice.
>>285163468Nah, it was a few weeks or maybe months ago on youtube. Got to see a few fun episodes.
>>285163823But I'm saying that now, because you mentioned CityHunter, there will be a ~5 hour block tomorrow on RetroCrush if you are interested!I love this channel because it's nice to catch (as a surprise) when Ronin Warrirors airs out of the blue or some older shows; it's pretty funny and I know how some people feel about it, but the Street Fighter cartoon from the 90s was a big thing they aired on RetroCrush around Christmas time; I loved it as a kid but I also missed the fact that many of the VAs from it were also working on Ronin Warriors at the time which I barely caught this Christmas; e.g. Michael Donovan voices Colonel Guile on Street Fighter versus Cye and Sage on Ronin Warriors.Richard Newman is the voice of M. Bison and then Cale on Ronin Warriors. Gotta love Ocean and those amazing Canadian voice actors!Also, I really fucking wish I went to go to a nearby convention last year where Dave Kaye was one of the guests; he has such an amazing voice and I really do hope, as suggested earlier, somehow someone reaches out to him and they will bring him back as the Narrator for the (eventual) US dub of the new YST series airing in Japan now! What an amazing time it feels to be alive now and that we're getting NEW Ronin Warriors/YST, decades after the original series was aired!
>>285163971>But I'm saying that now, because you mentioned CityHunter, there will be a ~5 hour block tomorrow on RetroCrush if you are interested!Thanks for the heads up. I'll try to watch it tomorrow.I wish we had some kind of service like that here. For really old stuff that is not that popular like Saint Seiya and DBZ is harder to get, specially original dub and such outside of those shitty oldass mp4 with hardsubs. I remember trying to watch a missed Rurouni Kenshin episode back in the day and couldn't figure it out what was happening on the screen.
bump
>>285164563RetroCrush is probably for you then, also, yes, I've seen them air the different iterations of Saint Seiya. You won't find DBZ as its likely a 'hot property', however Samsung Smart TV and those TV online streaming services DO have dedicated anime channels like Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Naruto, Inuyasha, so there may be a DBZ one someday. Funny story, for the last ~20 years I always look for the extremely RARE Ronin Warriors/YST threads, of which people would get banned or threads deleted for posting them on /a/ or /co/, so when the new series came out, this was really an answered prayer to see a thread so popular go on for so long and I hope these are here to stay. Ronin Warriors is easily one of the best animes, ever, so short and sweet. With the 2nd part of the series (e.g. episodes 20 to 39), it feels like there are ZERO filler episodes and they all advance the plot which is what makes Ronin Warriors/YST si amazing.Also on those rare threads I mentioned over the years, people did recommend to me Saint Seiya which I didn't even know about until people brought up the similarities between it and Ronin Warriors. This is all coming from someone who was a part of the anime invasion in the 90s/early 2000s. I started to get into Rurouni Kenshin then but then grew out of anime, but its cool to come back to this world again years later.CrunchyRoll has one of those TV channels so you may want to scroll down to the dedicated 'Anime' channels on pluto.tv/ I thought they had RetroCrush on there about a year ago but now they just have CrunchyRoll but some new dedicated channels. I remember last year there were times when both channels were playing Ronin Warriors/YST in different parts of the series, something entirely in English, or even both. You can also get exposed to older/classic anime or new ones you heard about but could have missed out on.Hope this helps, friend!
>>285166630Thanks for the info. It's just that all these options aren't availabel in my country so I'll need VPN. But Saint Seiya and Dragon Ball are easily available in Brazil for obvious reasons. But I do agree that since Saint Seiya is so popular, I find it weird why Samurai Troopers and Shurato aren't available anywhere since both came here because of the Saint Seiya boom back in the 90's. The brazilian singer for Shurato's OP/ED last year even released a single with all her songs and got a new full official localization of the OP1 and ED1. So there is a market here at least >>285159435Hell, I don't get it why Crunchyroll didn't try to get the rights of the original series globally if they were going to hold the rights for the sequel. Kinda similar to why P&S season 2 is available on Prime Video but the first season wasn't available officially (although P&S1 is easily available on torrent so whatever)But I'll take a look on this service. As an old boomer, I kinda like some older stuff more than many newer that comes every season.
>>285166630>of which people would get banned or threads deleted for posting them on /a/the fuck? why?
>>285156999>So if they ever come back will it be on those armors?I'd say it's likely. With Nasti being the head of the DST, and the DST existing is likely the direct result of her speaking to the UN at the end of Message about the Yoja world, so the OG Troopers logically should still have their OVA armors. And it is definitely possible that they'll all make an appearance. We know from the leaks that they're all alive and we see that Yamato and Musashi met Ryo in Musashi's flashback.>>285159856Wrong animal, anon. Sasuke's a monkey.

>>285168132The first 30 seconds explain everything you needed to know. OG fans are just as confused from the first episode so it's intentional.
>>285168132>So I gotta know the original?It would help. And it wouldn't hurt to watch it. It's a good show.

>>285167729>>285166630>>285168400Yeah, we have Saint Seiya threads every now and then. Specially with Next Dimension/THEN and the spin offs.
>>285169159Pretty sure it only counts if said anime has a 2000 sequel or remake and not just talking about the OG.
>>285167803むせる
>>285169847It's the Ten Sanada Braves, anon. It's Sarutobi Sasuke. Why would he be a lizard when he was always created to be themed around monkeys?
>>285157611>>285167803Thanks but hopefully they would have new ones. Or a least fix the grey color of those ones. Damn the original sword of the Green/Light is just perfect.On the other hand, I wouldn't like them to also have blocky ones.
>>285170190>Thanks but hopefully they would have new onesDoubt it. Wouldn't make sense.>Damn the original sword of the Green/Light is just perfectAs someone who has experience with swords, the original Korin sword is a nightmare of a design. It looks all wrong as far as proportions and balance goes and the biggest offender is the guard. It's too long and above all too pointy. You can only have those go so far before they dig into your wrists/arms. The new one he got for the OVA is a much more sensible design. Hell, I'd go so far to say that the Senko armor's sword is also a much better design than the original Korin's.
>>285157611Too much grey.
stop necrobumping
>>285091789This show is fucking amazing. I wish Toei would make more animated Kamen Rider or Super Sentai kino like Fuuto PI
>>285170412>Doubt it. Wouldn't make sense.Depends if they had toys of those before. Even if they hadn't it makes sense to make new ones to go with the new toyline https://youtu.be/l4CJ4Go0dSs?si=7rNnB8emxi0-hJfP>The new one he got for the OVA is a much more sensible design.Yeah but the other one was cooler.
>>285169365Yeah, when Osomatsu happened, there were anons that would scream and bitch about anyone bringing up Osomatsu-kun or other Akatsuka things. Didn't help that one -kun anon was some noxious troll named Jenny who's also trolled /m/.
>>285100622I was thinking the same thing. Plus all the 3D looks like complete ass.
>>285173908without giving away spoilers for someone who hasn't seen the new series yet; what is this monster thing? it looks like Shikaisen from the Gaiden OVA and some of those freaky masks that Cale would wear in the dark when he would trap Sage or Cye and attack them

>>285173908>>285173976I'll make an early bet and say this is the cute evil girl of this series >>285116552
>>285091789Many moons have passed since i last saw this... >Wow it´s shit To the surprise of no one.
>>285176229Just like your opinion.
>>285175007My favorite Tobe Hooper movie
>>285172746I find it weird how some /m/ trolls goes to /a/ threads like those Gridman ones.
off-topic, but can someone please tell nyaa's mods that ARR/Kingmenu is spamming their trash again
>>285177154
>>285173976Well, hard to say when he only appeared on the group gathering and we only have the promotional material for him >>285091852 >>285117880
>>285176191she was only a bad guy in a portion of the og series until she was broken out of her spell
>>285093752It aired well before the anime boom of the late 90s in syndication, and by the time Cartoon Network put it on Toonami there was already a bunch of other shows to compete with.In syndication where I lived it aired in a block with Exo-squad, which had power armor and a cool plot.
