Rainbowman 22 in the bag, sorry for taking over a week.https://archive.org/details/rainbowmansubbed

Aw dang it both the protags have daddy issues. I thought there was a limit of 1 daddy issue guy per show.
>remember, this is your LAST chance to sell these Mongolian Fidget Spinners, OR ELSESo the gaijin in the OP is the big bad (in current time). They pussied out of having the actor speak and dubbed over him, lame.
>>23449146Persona 5 reference?
There's absolutely no point to this scene other than to show off her fidget spinner, it must be in the contract or something.
>>23449157>must... sell... these Mongolian Figet Spinners no matter the cost...
BL time.
CEO's punches here would be soft if not for the special effects.
How long do you guys think it will take for the Daddy Issue, Fidget Spinner boys to make up and become buddies?
>>23449146wait, how many episodes do they have?
>>23449149You're really pushing for P5, in the way that JoJofags say that everything is a JoJo reference.
>>23449157>There's absolutely no point to this scene other than to show off her leg for the goonersftfyAnd we thank Sakamoto for it.

Do scans of the Zeiram manga exist? No English translation but it got localized in France of all places a few years ago
>>23445854Ah yeah, I miss it back when Dogengers actually focused on local heroes...So pretty much just the first season then.
Someone made a Juspion game. The giant robot seems to be on scale.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RquK20lTAOA
So it turns out Megaloman's been fully subbed for a while & has just been lying on the table unreleased until now. Apparently because they're not exactly final, but they seem perfectly watchable to me, & whatever rough patches are there I'm sure people will be more than happy to scrub out themselves. https://archive.org/details/megalomansub
>>23451198>Zeiram manga>French translationI hope it does have a scan for the French version, because you can just use the translation scanning on your phone to read it.Is it 2 volumes?
Hey, y'know the 1967 toku Monster PrinceWell an English-dubbed Taiwanese compilation film of it was just found.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwPK-t-FvHo
>>23461359leave it to those wacky chinese to do stuff like this and that one red baron compilation film>>23459317>gorgomyeah here's hoping they're properly scrubbed cause those guys are the arr of the toku world, will be checking out those first five at least
>>23461380>those guys are the arr of the toku worldMaybe I didn't look hard enough, but GorGom's works still looks watchable, if definitely unpolished. It'd be a different story if the subs were either incoherent &/or flat out wrong.
>>23461380>that one Mach Baron compilation filmFunny you should mention that, years ago I cobbled together a dub track for that, after I did my awful fandub of one of the Super Riders movies, but I soon lost motivation for actually recording a dub for it, so I just uploaded the M&E on my now-nuked old Archive account for other people to use if they wanted. I almost completely forgot about it.This guy didn't though!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgYGuLjSzqEBtw did anybody save or download that jank ass Super Riders fandub I did or is it lost forever?
>>23461359noice

>>23449149Balatro reference you doofus.
>>23461576Oh god actually looking at this it’s a "this-guy-literally-does-not-have-ANY-female-friends-&-just-pitch-shifts-himself-to-do-female-&-kid-voices" dub.
Rainbowman 23 in the bag!https://archive.org/details/rainbowmansubbed
This channel has UNCENSORED remasters of Spectreman in just about every language it was ever dubbed in!https://www.youtube.com/@AzureTVHD/playlistsThat's right, the English dub & those based on it censored some of the grizzlier bits of violence, but these are uncut!
>>23461380>those guys are the arr of the toku worldNah, not the case at all. Gorgom's somewhat of a moron but his subs are at least based on the show itself (usually TL'd from other asian fansubs IIRC) rather than a melange of MTL'd eurodubs and shitposting like ARR>will be checking out those first five at leastBecause FloridaMan was involved? FM's a lovely guy but he's no translator (outside of using Whisper AI)>those wacky chinese>chineseLike those wacky Japs who made Squid Game lol?
>>23443386finally a clean version
lol their civil war is already over.
oh no, she didn't know she was a Mongolian
>>23464593brb, researching.>>23464600I love that you comment while you sub this show. It's like a preview before I get to watch it.
>>23464852Not the subber, sorry if I gave you the wrong impression.
>>23464478>FM's a lovely guy but he's no translator (outside of using Whisper AI)I've never taken the time to really look at his subs, so he's been an AI crabsticker the whole time?!
>>23444986How on God's given Earth are we just now getting a Toku that incorporates a fidget spinner gimmick?
>>23464886He's a massive toku enthusiast, so he just wants stuff to be as available and watchable as possible. He's timed for people like Berndadelta, scrubbed existing fansubs, brought raws back into circulation, spent a bunch of his own money to acquire media and done a lot of laudable stuff. I'm not personally an advocate of some things he did like translating Mirroman Reflex with AI but at least he was always pretty open about it on his blog.
>>23464886>>23465512He also mentioned recruiting translators for at least Andro Melos and Bio Planet WoO. Stuff like Giant Robo was (presumably MTL'd) from Chinese fansubs, which doesn't so much bother me as long as it's disclosed.(this is me samefagging, I just wanted to check I wasn't misremembering before spreading misinformation)
>>23464886He told me himself that he hasn’t used AI or MTLing in a few years.
Anybody recognize this suit? I’m admiring the crud outta those belt fed bandoliers but I couldn’t ID this to Rider or Sentai.
>>23465958MOTW from Inazuman Flash.

>>23465227Japan is so slow to trends. They just stopped using 3.5 inch diskettes a few years ago.
>>23444986Where is this being shown? Bilibili?
>>23469994Oh God, Legend Hero Samgugjeong. I actually really liked it, the first half wasn't super impressive outside of the fights but then they started trying to diverge a bit from the Ryuki plotlines and it started catching my interest. I can't remember any of the fucking character names but I remember enjoying the slow build-up on the rivalry between the protag and the cop guy.
>>23465548I don't remember shit about Ryukendo but the basics but that theme song somehow lives rent free in my head
>>23470371>Japan is so slow to trendsIsn’t this Chinese?
>>23470517Which is why Japan hasn't done a fidget spinner trinket yet.
>>23470415>that theme songhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10bGovypBuQ
>>23470415Coinidentally, I'm watching it right now, and I can both see how and question how. This show is weirdly both devoid of sauce and full of sauce. You can tell the people behind it tried and most of the designs are good, even if they're a bit generic, but it's just missing finesse and theming. For an example on the second part, I just finished the 29th episode where Gekiryken gets stolen. And you would expect the monster that stole him to be a knight or samurai, but it's this biblical demon named Grim Goblin.
>>23464478>Like those wacky Japs who made Squid Game lol?I think anon meant the goofy Chinese/Taiwanese trend of grabbing stuff and using dubious legal power to create bootleg movies with HK dubs via Brits, which is just a fascinating rabbit hole to me personally. Who knows what wacky Frankenstein's monsters of compilation movies there are out there.BTW, on this note is that one Mach Baron "movie" mentioned still on Prime? Like I wouldn't be shocked if it was finally given the boot since even Kamen Rider can be watched on there now (thanks to Toei themselves with Black Sun and the various US licenses).
Bump.
>>23471151I’m not even certain it’s still up there although DaimosZ did upload an English subtitled version of the German theatrical release
>>23474692Bump 2.
>>23461576>>23471151>>23474729https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EETwP3e_-0No need for a fandub based off the German cut, a semi-complete original Mandarin cut has surfaced. Although this upload is a composite edit, as the Arabic print had some damage.From what the uploader has talked about, most if not all of these cut-togethers had some level of official support with them. Most of the cast of the Mach Baron film are Japanese, dubbed in, with only the main characters. It's because of this that Iron Superman was banned in it's native Taiwan shortly after release, even though the film sparked the Taiwan-Toku wave that Super Riders emerged from.The compilation film also has a proper conclusion to the Mach Baron story provided by the JP writers. Seems as if there were some plans to release the film theatrically in Japan?I'm not sure if a raw, unaltered Mandarin tape rip will surface, but I hope a V2 using the Spanish dub to fill in the gaps exists. The German dub is a "What's Up, Tiger Lily" situation with virtually none of the German dub correlates to the Mandarin dialog.
Rainbowman 24 in the bag, just 2 more to go, in the front half anyway.https://archive.org/details/rainbowmansubbed

>>23478304All these discoveries as of late makes me hope there’s a chance for the 1961 movie 快人黄色い手袋 from Gekko Kamen & Rainbowman creator Kouhan Kawauchi, though it’s never been released on home video or streaming it had some limited theatrical showings & TV broadcasts a few years ago, & thanks to the latter, if you look the movie up on Twitter you’ll see that there is an online rip of the movie out there, but it’s not public. But hopefully someday there’ll be someone who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy's cousin who can get their hands on it.
https://www.toei-video.co.jp/special/changerion/They're doing a Changerion event this November because of the Bluray release, and next year is the 30th anniversary. Hagino, Aizawa, Inoue and Shirakura are the guests.The event's name is "Event!! Now?" referencing the first episode title (Hero!! Me?)started to think Changerion 30th is the non-Rider/Sentai tokusatsu movie that secretly being filmed
>>23478304>That descriptionI knew it, the movie was a collab with the original creator’s although that is intriguing as to why the original language release was so hard to come by, must’ve influenced the way the super rider movies were produced lol. And that YouTuber does wonders in finding obscure shit in toku even as far as tracking down all of the stock music featured in the ultra series, wonder if he’ll eventually get to the toei stock tracks
>>23482937>Changerion Anniversary specialHell yes
Coud someone hook me up with the raws for Pettonton, please ? If you have the JP subs files that would be even better, thanks.
>>23482937Considering how willing Toei is to make V cinema slops nowadays, i do hope a Changerion anniversary movie will happen. The story deserves a closure.
>>23483098Taiwan had a ban on all Japanese products, from toasters to music. So to have a mostly Japanese film was a big no-no. Seems like the MENA region was a beautiful dumping ground for East Asian media. Most of the Taiwan-Toku they've uploaded are sourced from Lebanese VHS tapes.I got a chance to chat with the uploader, and I have brought up that JP film another anon commented about. But I really need the SEAbros to start doing their own recovery hunts. Apparently a Filipino-English dub of Toei's Watari film was released on Betamax in the Philippines? I'll try to find the archive link I was sent and post later. But yes Singapore, The Philippines, and Indonesia was similar to Lebanon, huge dumping ground for all manners of stuff. The English dub of that weird Space Streaker movie was from an Indonesian tape.
>>23485854neat
Rainbowman 25 in the bag!https://archive.org/details/rainbowmansubbedAs much as I love Rainbowman, at the end of the day I work primarily with manga, & being away from it for like 3 months has given me some serious withdrawal, so I am VERY ready to finish Rainbowman's front half & finally get on Gosaku Ota's Great Mazinger!
>>23485854I don't think there's that much obscure Showa Toku stuffs to be discovered around here, since I only remembered some betamax copies of Sentai and their accompanying, locally made, audio dramas. But then again, I may be too young to remember all of shits published in the late 80's>t. millenial Indog
>>23488944Yea you'd have to dig for stuff released around or before. Tria Tara Video would be a good place to start investigating. They released Japanese language material subtitled in Indonesian (pic related), but their movie releases seem to mostly be the English export dubs with Indonesian subtitles. The Kaiju Ouji film discussed earlier was a case of the latter. I meant to call out the Filipinos and Singaporeans more.
>>23482937Can Jiro Okamoto even fit in the suit anymore?
>>23478304>even though the film sparked the Taiwan-Toku wave that Super Riders emerged from.Is there any place where I can learn more about this? I've always been interested in that side of toku-history, as a German that grew up with our weird dubbed versions of these movies.
>>23489472my guess is they'll make a new design that's not entirely transparent material
Peaceful episode this week. I find it weird that they got a young guy with unconvincing old-man makeup to play MC's dad (original Bataar).
>>23492156Christmas lights are blinking!
Who else ready for the Garo Taiga kino?
And that is the front half of Rainbowman in the bag!https://archive.org/details/rainbowmansubbedIt'll be a hot minute before my translator buddy & I get around to the back half.
>>23495764When does it release?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSAjvcXcO2YRevive 05.
>>23489749 It was the closed up suit having 100kg in weight because it needed to look high quality. Stunt suit looked cheaper, but it was easier for him to do action scenes. It wasn't just the clear plastic, but Changerion had alot of fake muscles too, which added to the weight.
>>23500260>>23482937Make me glad I picked this up when it was dirt cheap.
>>23470888I watched a video essay and the essay described Ryukendo as a show promoting tourism to a fictional city. There's a lot of thoughts put into the city and you see the flower shop, the convenience shop, the police department, the shrines, the local backwoods. But there isn't a lot of strong characters to back them up, so the show felt like a salad with a lot of Parmesan and only three croutons
>>23501169>There's a lot of thoughts put into the cityStrong worldbuilding but with weak characters? A bit of an ouch.
>>23501180It's kinda true at least IMO. I don't remember anyone from Ryukendo other than the notKenzaki MC, the notTachibana gun guy, the chuuni looking third one, the florist lady who was in Decade, the bridge bunny gal who was in Garo.
>>23501169>>23501193I see Ryukendo as the proto Kamen Rider W. Both have fictional town as the setting and sets of characters who are sometimes appear but aren't exactly part of the main cast, so of course they're not as deep as the heroes and their actual support members.The croquette maker couple aren't much different from W's irregulars like Watcherman etc
Masked Ninja Akakage is getting a new series this October and directed by Takashi Miike.Trailer:https://x.com/akakage_tvasahi/status/1964290518617084009
>>23501516Also, similar to the denizens of Futo, everyone in Akebono is an idiot.
>>23502237Oh very nice, I still haven’t watched the original series nor the late 80s anime adaptation but glad to see a new installment come out
>>23502237Takashi Miike better make some absolute fucking bullshit.
I suppose ep10 is the end of the first half. Feels weirdly fast since they've really just defeated 2 MOTW and the villain lady. The lore seems to be implying that MC's dad wasn't the only Xtreme Vanguard in the future and the Xtreme Vanguard users were all summoned from the past like a reverse Kyle Reese situation. The world-building seems large for a small toku project like this, maybe they are setting up their universe for multiple Xtreme Vanguard shows.
Hi friends can you recommend some classic shows to get into tokusatsu again after years since watching Jaspion
Kaiketsu Zubat blu-ray commercialhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuz-P7VlQuc
>>23506375Looks terrible honestly. Every details got smudged out.
>>23506390A lot of Toei blu-rays don't really look that great due to hating grain but being really lazy about it.
What are the chances of Discotek getting pic related for a bluray?
>>23509232More than zero.
>>23509232I swear to FUCKING god if we get TTAFFBH before Inazuman Flash
>>23509684I mean we don't even have a Inazuman from Discotek yet, if we're ever getting one.
>>23510247Well with them having rescued the other Generation Kikaida licensed shows, them doing Inazuman is certainly more likely than not.
>>23509232I know it is just a joke, but i don't think they will make bluray for this thing. It is 60fps and shot on SD digital camera, upscaling this is just a lost cause.
>>23512366Part of me actually wanted one. Kinda wish it would come to Tubi. It's suprisingly well written and everyone should experience it once.
>>23512394You can find complete DVDrip on Internet Archive.
>>23510247>>23512099Didn’t they license inazuman? I think I recall they did at some point not long ago
>>23512366SD on BD is the best way to release ti though, because you get the bluray codec.
My fellow Americans, I have recently heard accusations of me & my friend's Rainbowman subs being MTL'd from the Mandarin subs we were using for raws. Allow me to assure you that this is not the case. My translator is Chinese, studying & largely quite proficient in Japanese. She did the base translation 100% by hand, she simply referenced the Mandarin subs for parts she wasn't 100% sure about. Hope this clears things up, thank you and goodnight.
>>23513455It's on Twitter, right? Forgot the tweet but one of the reply said there are already better Rainbowman raws than the ones you use.
>>23514289Which we were going to use until we started importing the subs onto them & found freezes & skips in some episodes, so they presumably must’ve been ripped from a scratched disc or something.This is really my fault for not thinking to clarify these things from the get-go.
>>23513455>>23514360One the one hand, I think the guy that made the accusations can be kind of a dick, and that the evidence of it being MTL seems more based on bad faith interpretation of what easily could be human error.But, on the other hand I agree that you guys should put more effort into finding an alternative video source. While I've seen worse, the pixelating whenever there's action on screen sucks. Also, as for the copies on Nyaa, are you guys absolutely certain it's the episodes and not the particular player you're using?

>>23528027>So... This is China's World...
His Chinese dub voice is pretty close. But>Wang Xiao MingThat's like a Yamada Tanaka tier common name lol.
I find it interesting that the protags are Rider-like but the writing and campy humor are more Sentai-like.

>>23529080Rider have humor like these all the time.
Anyone got a DDL link for subbed Giga stuff?

Shin Dogengers raws when?
Ever since the Maid Butler redesign I feel like I've been gaslit by how much people like the dogengers designs, every single of the new ones has felt ugly as overdesigned to me (with the exception of maybe Kaguya).
>>23529083Just watched KAIJIA's subbed eps. It's not coke, the can says Animester, the company behind Baatar. Makes it all the funnier.
She's back! But no thighs... I guess Sakamoto only directs the action scenes after all.>>23530532that's real deep>>23537013that's real cheeky
>MOTW is the douyin mobThat's how you know it's truly Chinese.
I wonder why they use on-set audio instead of ADR for this one scene.

>>23536253They just don't have the charm of the original designs, which were awesome for independent designs. The new designs look more like something from Toei, but a lot less impressive and stand out. And yes, they did Maid Butler so dirty too.
>>23534438I think the first three episodes do.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzC0yFF55w4Are kigurumi's easier or harder compared to hero suits?
How are the Garo shows past Makai Senki? I've started Yami o terasu mono and I'm not sure what to think so far. Are we getting more monster costumes or are they gone for good?Also, is there any interesting darker/mature tokusatsu out there that are worth watching? I've already seen most of Keita Amemiya's output.
>>23547197Holy shit it’s [REDACTED BY MODS]
I was today years old when I found out Keita Amemiya was the character designer for Onimusha 2.
Started watching Guyferd. It definitely wears all of its influences on its sleeve with no shame, but it's still a pretty solid 90s toku and the more grounded, less flashy fight choreography is kind of refreshing. I'm a bit surprised at how much of an asshole Gou can be though. He's constantly snarking at people. It could use a good scrub and better raws (apparently Crown-Empire is an ESL), but I know we're lucky to have what we have.

I guess it's Toku related but I am curious, where does the conception of Jiger being female come from? In Japan, Jiger is actually usually determined as being male or genderless. It lays eggs, but plenty of kaiju reproduce asexually. Not helping matters is that the Rebirth version is male. I think it was an assumption that got out of hand.
>>23559610>where does the conception of Jiger being female come from?https://www.ebay.com/itm/284061271541Buy Daiei Tokusatsu Movie Chronicle and find out if it talks about Jiger being female in Showa or not. Because everything I see online says that it's female, which would lead me to think that you're coping for some autistic reason.
>>23559797No need to be a dick about it, I'm just curious. If I am wrong, I will gladly accept being proven wrong, however I bring this up because many Japanese don't view Jiger as female, it appears to be purely a Western belief. It's similar to the Showa Hedorah and Titanosaurus in that sense where many fans view them as female (although their actually is more of a case for Showa Hedorah anyways). There's a thing called "common knowledge" also, many people have been wrong before about something despite popular belief.
>>23559849Stop crying, and buy the book. Or ask someone who actually speaks the language to watch the movie and tell you want the audio says.No one cares about your meta-commentary.If you have a problem with what the English speaking world says about something, then actually do something about it. Rather than crying that you don't like it.
>>23559855I'm not crying, but you are lying. I've noticed you keep dancing around what I say, mainly the fact Jiger is straight up is male in Gamera: REBIRTH and how I know several Japanese who have mentioned how Jiger is seen as male in Japan. I will buy the book for extra proof just to be sure, but it seems likely anyways. No wonder Kaijuposting has such a negative reputation even in these /m/ parts, if something as such so much as a suggestion makes you lose your shit, you need to chill it.
>>23559866>I've noticed you keep dancing around what I sayI have no horse in this race, faggot. I literally do not care. I pointed you in the direction of solving your problem in the hopes that your autism would calm you down enough to stop crying that people believe something different from you.I never even knew Jiger was a thing until you posted. I never saw any of the movies. I literally do not care.>No wonder Kaijuposting has such a negative reputation even in these /m/ partsIt's because animefags don't want toku on /m/. It's literally other autists crying like you that don't want toku on /m/.>if something as such so much as a suggestion makes you lose your shitThe only one crying about something pointless is you. I pointed you in the direction to solve your autistic problem, but you still want to cry about the tone of the conversation.You do realize that this is 4chan, and not reddit, right? You want hugbox, go the fuck back.Thank me, and move the fuck on. When you get your book, then use it to show the English speaking world that they were wrong. Until then, shut the fuck up. There is no pride you need to defend on 4chan. You're anonymous.

>>23559872>I literally do not care.That explains why you've been acknowledging me and responding to me quickly then. Seriously, what you said makes no goddamn sense. This is peak retardation right here; if you really didn't care, then why did you even bother responding to me in the first place? I would have rather have you ignore me entirely. Thank you for outing yourself, you're just an incel loser who thinks he's some internet tough guy. I'm not even going to bother with you anymore because I can see you just repeated yourself several times in your godawful attempt at trying to shut me down there. All I hear from you is cope, cope, cope. This is just sad.
>>23559873HYYYYYYYPE!!!!
>>23559872That's a lot of words for someone who has no horse in the race, Anon. Part of the appeal of /otg/ is the general laid back nature of discussion here. Go pop a blood pressure pill, watch a Showa Gamera or two, and come back when you can handle not spazzing out on someone trying to start a discussion on a usually sparse thread.
>>23559873Crazy that Ryuga has the most seasons out of every Garo protagonists now.
>>23559925I think Kouga still has the most shows and movies, but Ryuga's pretty close.
>>23559925>>23560163Is this confirmed to be a Ryuga show? Could be a new protag or set in the main universe.
>>23559873I'm so hyped! And that is definitely Ryuga's silhouette, not too surprising given his actor is still on board.
>>23560163I specifically said "seasons" as in the shows instead of movies, Kouga only have two where he's the protagonist.>>23560212Ryuga is literally in the poster, but could be a Hagane situation where they introduce a newer Knight.
>>23559873I wonder why they never try to do a continuation of Raiga story after the movie, I know his series isn't really good but he's pretty fun.
>>23560269Kinda makes sense. Heir to Steel did have a sequel hook at the end.
>>23559873>More RyugaI mean cool, I like Ryuga, but I dunno man. Is Rian or anyone else gonna make a comeback at least?
>>23560389If I'm not wrong Rian's actress was pregnant during Hagane filming which was about an entire year before the premiere.
Raiga's actor doesn't want to come back or what? I am kind of satisfied with Gekkou no tabibito's ending, but at the same time I would like a more clear conclusion for the Saejima family, Kaoru in particular.
>>23561320Best we can do is Raiga and Mayuri's kid and robo Gonza

>>23559873When will there be more Garo anime. I want more of Sword.
>>23563352I'm still disappointed we didn't get a Vanishing Line movie like we did for both other Garo anime
>>23559925>>23560163Is Ryuga that popular or is this a case of "the actor is always down for it so why not"
>>23563352>>23563508Mappa is too big now, the director who made the Garo anime left the studio.>>23563539Between the first three protagonists he's the only one who didn't really have a closure yet. I guess by closure here is making a family, where Kouga and Kaoru have Raiga, and Raiga and Mayuri have a son whose name I forgot.
>>23563576Mappa is too lame to make Garo now anyways. They're too busy abusing their employees to pump out more overrated junk.I'd honestly like to see a different studio take a stab at the Franchise honestly.

>>23556856It's obvious that he'll be redeemed when the mind control is undone, maybe he'll get a MaGeNtA armor then.Also keeping Wang Xiaoming in-suit is a bit of a neat trick to deal with flying Masahiro over.

>>23536253The other two new villains aren't very impressive looking either, just Maid Butler clones.
>>23571429I just don't see the point in getting rid of 2 unique characters just to replace them with such derivate designs.
>>23571973>getting rid of 2 unique charactersWhose getting rid of? Maid Butler Blue Rose? Or is it someone else? Come to think of it, I don't see Gulf, Gallia or Shuraomaru on here...>captcha: KKK2PWhat a captcha.
Garo just got picked up by Media Blasters. They're starting with Taiga and the other movies.https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2025-10-12/media-blasters-announces-plans-to-release-garo-live-action-franchise/.229862
>Do you still remember the ending of Jisariz?Woah they CAN mention Jisariz directly? I mean it's Masahiro Inoue, but i thought there'll still be licensing and stuff
Hey wait, what happened at the end of Jisariz? I don't remember actually. Or is he talking about S2?
I feel like Garo has kind of run its course. Each new series has a noticeably lower budget and there are only so many times you can do the "main villain is a fallen priest" plotline before it gets really old.
>>23574549There's literally Frieren cosplayer in one of the scene, they don't care.
>>23574638Not only lower budget, but no world building, no inspiration, not even any new ideas.It doesn't have anything of what I came to the series for:Sexy suit designs that weren't overdesigned + In costume battles that weren't entirely CGIImaginative world building and a well developed concept behind the monster that worked.Something that was just ridiculous, impossible, didn't make sense but was just fucking awesome because rule of cool.Things I didn't come to the series for:Look at us we have nudity and violenceStupid one off final formBrooding chuuni level writing teenage angstHumans were the bad guys all along / Dumbass falls to corruption because muh loss and agony / superiority complexLiterally all of the recent series and spinoffs has pretty much been nothing of the former and all of the latter, like they don't know what made GARO great regardless of budget.
>>23574638Garo as a project was meant to be for Amemiya to educate and raise proteges to be the next generation of tokusatsu creatives as he was well and truly one of the most passionate minds on the topic for decades. This ultimately became a failed prospect because instead of being tokusatsu creatives, they're just Garo creatives who either quit or moved on to something completely unrelated to tokusatsu, as the brand only saw success as a vehicle for gambling parlors as when you aim primarily at older audiences, you're cutting off an entire base. Now Amemiya just approves of brand kiting for spare money.I'm not saying we shouldn't have more tokusatsu productions that are mature, but you need to have a bit more bridging for younger groups.
The translator with whom I co-subbed the first half of Rainbowman is now subbing something all by themselves, it should be out pretty soon! Now, this is their first time doing the whole subbing process as opposed to just doing the base translation. But I told them they should be golden as long as they keep in mind some equally golden rules.>Brevity is the soul of wit, keep lines free of bloat whenever possible.>A subber & their work are expected to come off with an air of discipline & professionalism.>People will fucking run you out of town on a rail if you come off like you're putting their own personal amusement before accuracy & professionalism, which should always come first.>You can still have fun with your subs of course, just as long as it doesn't conflict with that.I'm not saying what show it is because they told me they wanna keep that a secret until they formally release it, but I'm excited to see it & their work on it!
>>23574638I wish he try a new IP.I know not many people liked Shougeki Gouraigan but at least he did something else back then.
>>23575870diaclone toku when
>>23575870The suit designs were awesome.What wasn't awesome was it being the worst of Toshiki Inoue compressed into a single series. The other time I've seen some slop from Toshiki Inoue on a similar level was GARO: The Animation season 2, but he only wrote some episodes from that as opposed to the whole season.
Did BananaSubs ever mention if there's an ETA on the second half of Saru No Gundan?Need apey goodness.
>>23575870Shougeki Gouraigan was good in the first half when it was basically Den-O meets Changerion. The issue is they decided it NEEDED a full-on plot when it was at its strongest as a funny episodic romp.
>>23571973It also seems kind of a bit pointless to add two more characters to be pretty much the same as one older character, much less having two.
>>23574638GARO was of the early 2000s era. Even though GARO is aimed at an older audience, it still has the same feel as the other toku from that era. I get the same satisfaction from watching early GARO as I do from PGSM or the early 2000s Kamen Rider.There's certain shows that capture the substance and style of the era, and they're all remembered fondly for touching on the same toku feel.Once that era of toku/pop culture ends, the IP might continue, but the reasons that made those shows special is gone.
>>23574547It's about time that GARO leaves release hell. Hopefully the shows get released soon too.We need the first part of Heisei Kamen Rider and GARO blurays.

>>23578399look at OP webm's fat thigh.
>>23576760I think the biggest factor is the studio (?) change. The original Garo was made by Deep Side, which later make late night toku like Cutie Honey The Live. Every Garo starting from Red Requiem to now are by different team.

So, Blue SWAT was uploaded to archive.org at one point apparently, and I missed my chance to get it. Will it ever get uploaded again there or amn I utterly fucked (because GOD forbid you try to download something from zokaj or tokuzilla, it's fucking impossible)
>>23575432I think I have an idea of what it is.
>>23502237Saw it a bit late, but another trailer came out. Only a little over a week away from the premiere.https://x.com/akakage_tvasahi/status/1978974236434739556
>>23581201Anon who saw it, it’s not really worth the effort unless you’re going through all metal heroes shows
>>23581201It's on nyaa, and it has a seed.
>>23582157Ah, found it. Thanks anon!>>23581945I'm well aware, but I'm the kind of autist that once I begin watching something I have to see the whole thing and I the archive was taken down after I saw episode 3, so...
>>23581312Amazon webrips of the original Akakage tokusatsu also got posted onto Nyaa.
>>23584042behold the toad
>>23574638The new film has had a good reception, so there’s some juice in the franchise. The overall issue here is the reliance on Pachinko money. Garo wouldn’t be here without Sansei forking over money for production. Covid-19 did a number on the profits and the market hasn’t really recovered from the downturn. Regulatory changes also cutting down on profits>>23563539Ryuga as a character has more appeal and gives avenues for newer creatives to tell stories with. Kouga is Amemiya’s golden boy and his story is neatly wrapped, they don’t need to dip into that pool anymore
holy shit tennis episodeare they brave enough to sell the racket?
>>23584056Is there a surprise in the new film?
Yabai Kamen to get a new design next year, this one will be his new default design from here on out.
>>23575432OK I think I can get away with saying it’s Diamond Eye, subs for the front half of Diamond Eye are coming soon.
>>23584056The fact that they've also done nothing else with Raiga makes me hope they're putting a lid on the Saejimas after the Taiga movie. There really isn't anywhere I can see them taking any of them. Ryuga has some potential left as a character but after he was basically a side character in Hagane, I'm worried they don't know what to do with him anymore either.
nien
>>23586049The problem with Ryuga is that he has no interesting chemistry with any other character in the series. Gai and Aguri barely interacted with him, Rian was just a pretty face that was more often a damsel in distress that had "issues".Kouga had Kaoru, Rei, Amon and Jabi to interact with, even Tsubasa. Rekka not so much, Leo felt like he interacted more with everyone who looked up to Kouga more.Raiga has nobody either, everyone around him is irrelevant and serves mostly as his cheerleading squad.For whatever reason in the live action series - the writers did not know how to write a cast of characters at all.
>>23588478And when it comes to Ryuga, ironically the most chemistry he's ever had with another character isn't Rian, it's fucking Jinga
The translator with whom I co-subbed the front half of Rainbowman just came out with their first solo sub, the first 13 episodes of Diamond Eye!https://archive.org/details/six-wing-subs-diamond-eye-ep-12-eng-subbedThey're hardsubbed, they tell me that for whatever reason they can't for the life of them get them to work right as softsubs, I'll try doing it myself later.
Why there is so many jav parodies of Poitrine? Was it a mega success back then?
>>23588964Honestly it was the only magical girl-themed Fushigi Comedy that got successful beyond the franchise. Sailor Moon was partially inspired by it and ironically killed the Fushigi Comedy franchise later.
>>23588964>La Belle Fille Masquée PoitrineTranslates from French to>The Masked Beauty Chest"Nice tits, pretty masked girl"That's a pretty good guess on why they porn parody her.
