>>23315994>it's another episode of Bandai raping an old Takara show
>>23316008>nooooo not the freaking samurai pizza videocats!!!! I mean troopers!!!!!!
The remasters of the old shows look quite good. >https://animethemes.moe/anime/yoroiden_samurai_troopers/OP1-NCBD1080>https://animethemes.moe/anime/yoroiden_samurai_troopers_kikoutei_densetsu/OP1-NCBD1080
>>23315994But this was Saint Seiya with Samurai. Did they add a giant robot? In hindsight i think the original show wasn't even that great either.
>>23316052Ironically the only Sunrise original to not be fully /m/ before Love Live. Of course, Talpa counts as a giant the Ronins have to fight.So, knowing they will make model kits of the new series, it's only a matter of time until we see the classic series getting the same. Even the Dark Warlords, P-Bandai be damned.This is reposted by Bandai's model kit division Tweet-X, by the way.https://x.com/samuraitroo_pr/status/1932770036810219715?t=55DhgH3M4-cpSjhFHOLz3g&s=19
>>23315994Nice. >cue Armor of Inferno theme music
Rate his aesthetics.
>>23316234not Ryo and the boys so fuck him.
>>23316164soulless
>>23316234Looks like a tomboy
The original show becomes so ass after the initial arc. Hope this does better.
>>23316269Damn I didn't understand why the fuck you said that till I clicked the image. That face lol
The visual video.
>>23315994the original designs are classic and what got me into the mecha aesthetic as a kidthe new style is OK but I'm not complaining about more Samurai Troopers
>>23316234Why does he look like a little girlFuck, modern anime is so goddamn stupid
>>23316330>a little girlAre you new to anime? He doesn't even look like a teenage trap. >>23316234They should have called him Momiji lol.
>>23316234The way he carries his swords is gay.
>>23316164She cute
>>23315994The original was shit.I hope they will add some top tier waifus to it.
This is Yoroi Shin Den Samurai Troopers' headwriter, Shogo Muto. Ask him any questions.
>>23315994cool, Samurai Troopers and Saint Seiya are getting sequels, but I'm a Shulato guy, where's my Shulato remake/sequel?
>>23316534No questions. I like Crows Zero and Kamen Rider Build.
>>23316539You have a blu-ray remaster instead.https://twitter.com/MercuryFalcon/status/1877221198297190492
>>23316234How is he supposed to even draw his swords?
>>23316534Where the fuck is the Build novel?
>>23316052u mad
where is the pizza?
Saint Seiya Omega vibes
>>23318419At least it's its own thing rather than trying to be a sequel
>>23318419Omega was decent. Both seasons had slow starts but wound up being good overall.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sujMxMnKwUUTakeshi Kusao, Ryo's seiyuu.
>>23318419Design-wise it's actually sticking with the original style for the armors though, unlike Omega's dumb "spandex" take that both irritated old fans and made the main toys impossible. The only thing similar to Omega is that it's a new generation.
>>23318347There isn't even a cat.>>23319301
>>23318347CC ate it.
>>23316534KR Build's Writer is on the job! Sweet!
It's been ages since I rewatched it but I hope they don't ruin the masho's redemption and doji's sacrifice
>>23316539Shulato is criminally overlooked. Out of the 3 mystical armor anime of the late 80s, I thought it was interesting as fuck using Indian mythos. I am legit shocked that they're remaking Yoroiden Samurai Troopers. I hope they retain Shuten Doji and his development. He's hands down THE best character in the whole series. I do have mixed feelings about this. While I do like remakes like the 2020 Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken since it adapted the manga that the 90's series failed to do, I hate this modern trend of revamps because it reminds me of Hollywood's lack of creativity.
>>23321843Doji's final battle with Kayura was amazing. Never before did I see such a heroic stand like that while I was a kid.
>>23322499Its a sequel.
>>23316052didnt you hear? toku is /m/ now
>>23316234m o m I j I ?
>>23321843>>23322499You can see in the trailer the villain line up. It doesn't seem like they're sticking with the "4 generals" set up of the original. They seem all new.
>>23322801>>23318473The premise in the official site is this, which sounds fairly generic. It's either a sequel or an AU where they're reusing some terms.>When the seal of the evil world, which once terrorized the human world, was broken, many evil soldiers began their invasion.>Five young samurai rushed to the rescue of humanity.>They are called Samurai Troopers!!>A new chapter in the days of battles is about to begin!For what's worth, "Evil World" is the same "Youjakai" 妖邪界 from the original series, rather than calling the villain's world something else. Meanwhile, the red armor has a different name. On the other hand, Gai, the new protagonist, has the same "benevolence" kanji as the original as his virtude.
>>23323484The press release says it's a sequelhttps://img.sunrise-inc.co.jp/images/news/22398_0ybkxm6459gh_pdf.pdf>アニメ『鎧伝サムライトルーパー』(1988 年 4 月~1989 年 3 月放送)シリーズの正統続編となる TV アニメ『鎧真伝サムライトルーパー』が 2026 年 1 月に放送することが決定いたしました。
>>23322735Gone is the old era of fighting evil armors. If possible, what if updated versions of the Season Armors become mid-season allies? Times changed, and the Dark Warlords sided with the heroes in the finale, so maybe they end up with successors with good intentions this time around.
>>23323513I know people hated Message but the armor designs were cool.
>>23323574Message was the Zen conclusion of the original series. Remember how their armor was linked to Arago's original set and that the only reason why they got stronger was because the violence from all the fights empowered it? The Troopers saw their armor as tainted and were afraid of being corrupted by it. Suzunagi purifying their armor and reshaping it was their progression coming to full circle and giving them a new start. I didn't appreciate Message when I saw it way back in 2010 but looking back, I appreciate what the animators were trying to do artistically.
>>23323754Yeah. I always imagine a sequel of the series to take place after Message, but reforging the armors to look like the original ones destroyed in Africa (or close to it). Thank god Shogo Muto thought the same idea. But I really hope they bring the Season Armors back, redesigned to match the updated Suzunagi Elemental set.
Mukala of the Sun felt like an appropriate series finale that was actually cool as a bonus to the TV series' finale. Message felt like it was stalling for time in at least half of each episode, only the last episode felt remotely relevant, and demons were seemingly back and terrorizing the planet for no apparent reason. I hope this sequel series is good.
>>23316528It'll definitely have its own Kayura.
>>23315994It'll be shit, but I'll watch
>>23322701Toku is /m/ for more than a decade.
>>23325013Message seemed to be made out of spite for the fans. It even start with the characters telling us they’re not even friends, just for forced to fight alongside each other. The rest is some BS drama album with stock footage to go with it.
> purely animated media> "it's toku"No, it's not.
>>23322506>>23321843"Quake with fear"
>>23316180https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuG5xceSpAo
The one thing I hoped that this new series does is actually build-up the characters. The first episode of the 1988 series got me confused when we saw these 5 random dudes wearing sub-armor battle supernatural beings without any backstory. It wasn't until I got access to the Internet that I found out that each of the guys discovered their respective armor as a family heirloom that they had to earn. The initial episodes should have the bad guys attack and consolidate control. The next episodes introduces each Samurai Trooper, who they are, and how they seek to tap into the armor. They find individually because none of them know about each other and then they're finally forced to fight together when circumstances arrange for all 5 to cross paths.I have mixed feelings toward Yoroiden Samurai Troopers. Sunrise had just finished Metal Armor Dragonar which I consider one of the best 80's mecha and decided to shift into fantasy/martial arts with YST. I hope that with all these revamps and/or sequels, we can get another Dragonar installment. Or an L-Gaim prequel about Posaydal's rise to power and how he conquered the Pentagonal System.
>>23316643He neglected it.
>>23316038Sunrise remasters have been consistently quite good.
>>23345072Unlike Toei's.
>>23318419Takeshi Kusao returning to Samurai Troopers ala Toru Furuya in Saint Seiya Omega then?

"New" trailer (just more of the same, but a bit of a better look at the other four updated armors).https://youtu.be/ZhQv_u4aPvk?si=YgjW47ttGtur7poW
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADsZEHU6cZQI had one of these, it was one of the blue guys, I think it was Shin.
>>23424342so, from the updated character profiles, the armor names with color are: red for Heat, light blue/aqua for Water, oranges brown for Wilderness, blue for Sky, and green for Light.
The visual silhouettes.
>>23423720>>Sentinel actually completing the warlords>>Moshow die-cast figures>>New show>>Takara Tomy and Bandai making toys/kitsNice
>>23316038Is this from the 2018 Blu-Ray or is it something new? It looks amazing.
>>23425868Yeah, it's from the blu-ray.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCpda1td0dc
>>23425085Interesting how they recontextualized the earth armor. The colors are a complete match to the originals, even if the names and designs are completely modernized to AM-Driver levels.
>>23412096Right. I wonder about the prototype Shin Yoroiden, which is totally different from Yoroi Shin Den. Was that a one-shot or a single volume?Speaking of Kayura, who might have been a savior or disgrace to the second half of the show depending on the viewer, she follows a different virtue than Shutendouji in the manga (Love instead of Loyalty for obvious reasons). Might be because as a female Ronin, she has to have a more feminine virtue than the rest. The new water armor user might be a twink, no way he'd be a girl.
>>23424342The protagonist seems like sick fuck is he a serial killer in the sequel? why the fuck would the legendary armor choose him?
>>23426241The orginal protagonist from the first samurai troopers wasn't like this I think Bandai is going another unhinged murdering protag like IBO
>>23426241These aren't the same armors from the original series.
>>23322701Animated shows are not toku, henshin heroes =/= tokusatsu.
>>23408308Is he a lil bro or just baby faced?
>>23427573He's currently 20 years old.
>>23427583So both then.
>>23426070>disgrace to the second half of the show depending on the viewerWait, really? I thought Kayura was a fun addition to the series.
Speaking of Shurato, can someone please seed the old English torrent from Nyaa so I can watch it?
>>23431122the episodes are subbed on youtube. seems like not even the copyright owners care about that show.
>>23432061>>23431122https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxhdluj_iSgDamn, 12 years ago.
>>23425861A nice time to be a Samurai Troopers fan.
>>23426066The armors look a lot bulkier than the originals too.

>>23453177Sorry, I had my GaoGaiGar naming scheme mixed up at the time.
>>23451623I think Ronin Warriors is what got me into mecha as a kid, the old Playmates toys looked like Gundams.
>>23315994All this hype for New Samurai Troopers and the fact that this thread is still alive make me want to show off my SC VI CoS of the entire Ronin Warriors cast. Not sure if /m/ is ok with spamming the already long-running thread with them..
>>23453421/m/ is a slow board. Not surprising the thread lasted this long.
>>23453430I get that much, it's more like the series as a whole is borderline /m/, and /a/ barely cares much about it from what I've seen.
>>23316038This is awesome!
>>23451623Now the best Warlord is finally coming. Rajura/Dais finally getting a proper figure. All that's left is Cale to complete all nine armors, though I still expect we'll get all nine again as Bandai model kits if we're getting the new series as full action model kits themselves, and I pray we run laughing if they are 30ML compatible.
>>23464424What makes him the best warlord?
>>23468233His design and ability. The eyepatch look is iconic, and his ability is generating illusions.
>>23468742He has the best voice too.
>>23456238Indeed.

The visual webms.
Final webm of the most recent trailer.
>>23510892>>23511029So, does this confirm the original Samurai Troopers to be canon, and this is a sequel?
>>23511599Apparently. Considering they also are rerunning the OVAs with the original show, this means even the Message OVA is canon, and I pray these new armors are the same ones Suzunagi made for the original five that replaces the armors destroyed back in the Black Inferno OVA.By the way, Musashi is probably gonna be an easy favorite for looking his age, compared to literally everyone, old AND new.
is original worth watching?
>>23492175>>23510978>>23510983fuck, im all here for all of them. and with the 30mf having different body types we can get them looking visually different. please dont be p bandai exclusive....
>>23513979No, the reason we're getting these is to avoid making the new kits P-Bandai. What could be P-Bandai are the Dark Warlords, since we are also getting the classic Ronins in this line as well, it's gonna be a matter of "when".
>>23514255>What could be P-Bandai are the Dark Warlordsfucking terrible, but ill begrudgingly accept it if i can eventually order the others without bullshit or time limits
New Hardrock VA's birthday today, but many people glossed over it because he isn't in too much /m/ content except perhaps SD Gundam World Heroes (he's Cao Cao Wing Gundam's VA as well).
>>23518508He's also Sworgrader.
>>23511037>>23511039Too much CGI for me.
>>23513346The original is worth watching.
>>23511599Pretty much, yeah.
>>23316234>>23510895>>23510897>>23510898>>23510901So, would the armor's names and their guiding virtues be the same as the previous cast?
>>23541707goofy ahh designs.
>>23541707>Earth elemental dude isn't stoutDropped.
>>23541795Shu wasn't stout. He just had a fat face.
>>23541820He was slightly more robustly-boned and was shorter, in addition to the butterface. His civvy fits were all shit fat dudes wear, like overalls and suspenders. The intention was clearly to make him "stout" though not fat or obese.
>>23541923Gaiden's character art was so good.
>>23541707Not really into these, though in general I don't think I like Yuhei Murota much as a character designer.
>>23541766Why did you moan mid sentence?
In other news, the second largest toy company in Japan is now Bandai's bitch.
>>23541707Look like they stepped right out of a gacha.
>>23545672Reminding me of Ride Kamens.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkVaT26PfN8
>>23541733Likely yes.
>>23545667Yay, more Toyrise.
>>23545667They made the original Samurai Troopers toys, just that they don't take off well because of the spring-loaded limbs. Were they just as much of a novelty under Playmates Toys in America as with Takara in Japan?
>>23541733Their virtues appear to be the same but the armour names are different to the original.OG > NewRekka (Wildfire) > Shakunetsu (Blazing Heat)Kourin (Halo) > Senkou (Flash [of light])Suiko (Water's edge) > Suiren (Waterfall)Kongou (Metal) > Kouya (Wilderness)Tenkuu (Sky/Heavens) > Soukyuu (Blue Sky)
>>23541707The new thunder Ronin looks like a young, pretty boy version of Dias
>>23510936Who are the 2/5 that don't look hot?
So if this is a sequel, what are the odds that we'll see an older Ryou or the other original Samurai Troopers show up?
