Imagine they would make a sequel for each Metal Hero entry.
>>23628807Would that continue from where Space Squad left?
I really really hope we finally see Kenji Ohba again, he just disappeared years ago
if sentai died so metal heroes can live again, that's a trade I would do 100/100
>>23628810Kek no, it'll obviously ignore everything that happened in the middle, at least at the begining.
>>23628810No way. If this is really the Sentai replacement, it's a new show intended for children. It might have some cameos, but expect new suit, hero and mecha in the center of it all.
Does Toei really need 2 toku franchises in the first place?
>>23628840Gotta hold onto the rights for that TV Asahi block somehow.
>>23628840If they did a "second rider" show, no teams, something like KR Kabuto with mechas where everybody does their own thing, I think it would sell well. Sentai was selling then started to decline so if they did something more focused on one hero it could do better than modern sentai.
>>23628810The newspaper that revealed its existence before the trademark said it would be a Reiwa reboot of Gavan, so noThat said a Kenji Ohba cameo is likely, he loves toku>>23628821Even better we're getting an in-between of Super Sentai and Metal Heroes called Universe Heroes, a rebooted Space Sheriff franchise taking over Sentai's slot and Super Sentai anniversary movies. Really Sentai dying is a net positive all around, only problem is that the last Sentai's female lead controversy causing the show to be pulled from streaming but as a silver lining I guess the actress is getting replaced with a much better one.Really these past few weeks have been insane in terms of toku news.
>>23628840From 2000 to 2014 both franchises made good money proving that it was possible to have two year-long kodomo toku shows simultaneouslyThey're trying to reach that high again, as long as they make good toys they might legitimately be able to achieve it.
So were the Space Sheriff reboot movies and tie-ins like gauging modern interest in Metal Heroes or something? Feels like they were building up to something big and it just never went anywhere.
>>23628863Nah, it was Sakamoto pursuing his dream of making japanese MCU.He then went to Tsuburaya to do the same.
>>23628807One of the following people should be the chief writer>Riku Sanjo>Naruhisa Arakawa>Keiichi Hasegawa>Kazuki Nakashima>Junki Takegami>Michiko Yokote>Atsushi Maekawa>Akatsuki Yamatoya>Yasuko Kobayashi>Atsuhiro Tomioka>Tatsuto Higuchi>Genki Yoshimura>Shou Aikawa>Yuji Kobayashi>Ayumi Shimo>Tete Inoue>Kaori Kaneko>Tomihiko Tokunaga>Yuya Takahashi>Toshio Yoshitaka>Masaya Kakehi>Masahiro Yoshimoto>Lee Jeong-hui>Miyako Matsumoto>Ogawa Masue>Naoya Takayama>Mitsuie Yoshiyuki>Yuichi Higure>Ryo Sunamoto>Mitsuru Tanabe>Takeharu Sakurai>Masashi Todayama>Masue Ogawa>Chiaki Manabe>Koji Tanaka>Shu Marumo>Yuko Iwashita>Teruyo Takigawa>Shotaro Koyama>Hiroki Uchida >Nobuhiro Mouri>Junko Komura>Daisuke Kihara>Yoshio Urasawa>Shoji Yonemura Who do you think out of these would be the best pick and who do you think is the most realistic pick?
So will this be simulcast?
>>23628894No
>>23628867The Gavan movie wasn't directed by Sakamoto. It was a Osamu Kaneda product that probably underperformed before they gave it to Tsukada/Sakamoto/Arakawa for the the Shaider and Sharivan V-cinemas..
>>23628863The New Gavan movie was Shirakura's attempt at a revival through theater, but that kind of failed, especially with SHTZ doing worse than the Rider vs Sentai movies or standalone Rider crossovers, so it wasn't even worthy it keeping them for crossover movies.The later Metal Hero stuff (Sharivan, Shaider, Space Squad) were V-Cinema aimed at old fans, having already given up on mainstream ambitions.>>23628882I do wonder if Shirakura would risk taking the main producer position here...
>>23628807Why Toei believe kids will watch Gavan?
>>23628905>I do wonder if Shirakura would risk taking the main producer position here...He wouldn't but Tsukada would
>>23628909At least it has some nostalgia value which is better than starting from square zero.
>>23628863No, they were terrible flops (as this will be)
As long as the stunts are good and they get a guy who's an actual martial artist, I will be happy.
Do you think we'll get Satoshi Fujita as an action director? If so do you think his style would fit Gavan?
>Metal Heroes dies so they can revive Kamen Rider>Sentai dies so they can revive Metal HeroesLike pottery.
>>23628984Nah, i hope he's already be in the next year rider show
>>23628984Hirofumi Fukuzawa is a likelier pick for action director
>>23628909Because they watched movies about a dude in a metal red suit made by gaijins and liked it.
>>23628996That didn't help the Gavan movies and it was duirng the peak of the MCU
>>23628909Because they will think its like Iron Man when in the MCU iron mans fuckin' dead.
>>23628909Blind desperation
Greetings, /m/, I am the Eternal Dragon, Shenron. I can grant you any wish for Gavan Infinity. State your wish, /m/.
>>23628996Anon do you realize how long ago the last Iron Man movie was? Those kids are adults now. Making a Gundam comparison would make more sense due to taking place in space
>>23629000Well there weren't any toys available and no new suits. This time they'll probably take a page out of KR's book and introduce transformation devices and collectables and probably different forms. It'll be like a 2nd rider show, when the 1st one is already bring in tons of money.
>>23629006Exactly. Iron man isn't here anymore so Toei stepped in.
>>23629004Please be an actual good show with good toys so that we can finally get a new Space Sheriff show that isn't any of the first three
>>23629004Let this be for Metal Heroes what Kuuga was for Kamen Rider.
>>23628909The only fans of Gavan are going to be manchildren. This just reeks of blind desperation. If the Space Sheriff was viable, the Gavan movie would have done better and they would have put more budget in those V-cinemas.
>>23629007It would allow them to double dip and make themes less of a gamble. Don't like a show themed on candy? heres one themed on detective shit instead rather than having to wait the full year.
Just don't make it overly kiddie like Sentai was becoming.
>>23628807But Space Sheriff lacks any giant robots outside of Gavan's giant dragon thing. Gavian Infinity needs something that can be a fitting replacement for Super Sentai, since now that it's gone, there's a mission link for Toku giant mech vs giant monster.
Sentai ended with King Ohger. You know i'm right.
It's weird to me that Gavan is literally the character's actual name but they've now rebooted it twice where a new guy takes it like a title, it's like being a cop named Officer Harry and then your two replacements after you retire inherit the name Officer Harry
Directed by Inoue
>Yfw Deka Red joins the show as a recurring character.
>>23629025>>23629017Why are you being retarded on purpose?>>23629012Sadly I don't think this show has a pre-production as long as Kuuga but instead just having a regular pre-production cycle
>>23629033I'll basedface but i'll be ashamed of myself.
>>23629033>Saban pulls some bullshittery and gains the rights due to this
>>23629054>The guy from SPD comes back>Now a grizzled old space cop whos getting too old for this shit and the plucky young Space Sheriff hes been assigned to take under his wing.
>>23629025It should have. We shouldn't be seeing the final death throes of the franchise with Gozyuger.
give me a tl;dr on Metal Hero
>yfw they do Juspion after
>>23629063Kohaku Shida as Sumino is gonna make Gozyuger crazy good.
>>23628882>Leave kickstarting the revival to me
god I can just imagine the fucking toys now>original Gavan>"Jouchaku!">flash of light>he's Gavan>narration explains how it happened in the split second it occurred>Infinity>nu-Gavan pulls out chunky block toy>whirls a goodad on it>toy goes "READY!

UCHUU KEIJI!!!">wacky CG shows the suit slowly plopping onto the guy>toy goes "ITS GAVAN!... infinity~">narration goes "h-here's how it happened in that sp-split second">more bad CG and ENGRISH words
>>23629064Its what VR Troopers and Big Bad Beetleborgs is based on. More sci-fi than Sentai but also can go batshit crazy. Very Showa coded even in the 90's. Was shelved to put all the money into reviving Kamen Rider in 1999.
>>23629074They won't do this if they know what's good for them. Gavan's transformation is easily one of the most famous and iconic in all of toku. Reviving Metal Heroes just to browbeat it into being like every other current series is not the right direction.
>>23629054>Saban pulls some bullshittery and gains the rights due to this"""Gavan""" has been in a PR show, its already over
>>23629064It's like my heckin Kamen Rider but they're space police
>>23629069Why do you like searching excuses to get pissed off? If want to do comedy at least be funny>>23629067That would be neat, it's a shame that Brazilian reboot toku got canceled and turned into a comic instead
>>23629074Mite be cool if they make the transformation look cool like KR Birth
>>23629081But anon they have to sell toys and appeal to japanese kids, or else they wouldn't have made a new show to take over Sentai's spot. I mean they already toyified KR, it's fucking coming.
>>23629074>"GET ZA CHANGE">*pulls three things out one pocket between his fingers, two out the other and begins spinning them*>BOP IT>PULL>TWIST IT>YEAH YEAH ITS INFINITIME!>"SHERIFF SUIT APPU">*BING*>*BONG*>*YOU'RE LISTENING TO FATMAN AND THA BIG DAWG IN THE MORNING*>*ROYALTY FREE LASER SOUNDS*>*HOLOGRAPHIC PACHISLOT SURROUNDS HIM*>*SPA-SPA-SPACE SHERIFF GAVAAAAAAAN...INAFINITY!, CAN YOOO GO BEYONDS*>PRESENTED BY TAKARA TOMI>Takes 2 and a half minutes of every episode.
>>23629064It's basically a whatever goes toku, even more so than Rider, that ocassionaly would have sub-series that would last multiple years. The only thing connecting all of these shows is that the heroes have metallic armor, its vagueness is why this franchise wasn't sustainable from a marketing standpoint since Kamen Rider and Super Sentai could do a lot of experimental stuff that gave the staff creative freedom while maintaining a consive image, and that's probably why this reboot and the previous attempts of rebooting the franchise with movies focus on the first sub-series of the Metal Hero franchise Space Sheriff.
>>23629064It can go from very grounded sci-fi setting like Winspector/ Solbrain… to ridiculous religious shit like in Shaider or Exceedraft (starting off similar to Winspector/ Solbrain then turning to team fighting against Satan himself by the end of the show)
>>23629004Please let crossovers between it and Kamen Rider be the norm
I just want to see how they modernize the designs along with the pretty much confirmed toy gimmicks. Or maybe they'll keep the designs traditional and more grounded like Ultraman.
>>23629106>Who are you?>I'm a space sheriff, who are you?>I'm agent 7, lets get on with za mission>Hey you bike looks familiar...>Zero: uhhhh i gotta go *drives away*Fund It.
>>23629004Please Sheron donoNo fucking card gimmick, i'm so tired boss..
>>23628904I didn't mention those because they came out ages ago. If the intention behind was ever to gauge interest we'd have already seen it.>>23628882I agree, some human being should write the show.
>>23629112There's no tradition to keep.
>>23629120I mean to be fair didn't Covid hit them right after and they were already struggling with the whole "thought Reiwa was starting a year earlier and had to remix shit suddenly"?
>/krg/ is coming here being retarded now
>>23629106Seems unlikely at least for this first year, the usual Super Sentai summer movie slot is being taken by a crossover between Gavv and Gotchard this year
>>23629127Hey man you can't get surprised we are retarded, we watch Kamen Rider!
>>23629124The Gavan movie came out in 2012 way before covid.
>>23629137nu-/krg/ doesn't watch Kamen Rider or toku for that matter, they might as well be shartyfags at this point>>23628882Yasuko Kobayashi would be my pick any day but that's obviously not happening, Ayumi Shimo and Michiko Yokote are the likeliest I'd say, if I had to choose between those two I'd pick YokoteI'd much rather a writer experienced in Toku than a newblood handling the start of a new franchise
>>23629004I just want it to be a huge success so Toei can keep doing more Toku.I really don't want to lose SHT bros, it's literally the only thing I look forward every week despite how rocky the last 2 years have been.
>>23629136>Gotchardjesus christ.
If Toei is looking for new blood, this'd be the perfect show for Higuchi to write.
>>23629081They did it to Ultraman anon.I'd prefer they didn't but I also know what Bandai's like.
>>23629151Japan's economy and environment are in a dire state.
>>23629156Putting Shirakura in charge of managing the two shows did them no favors. What did his 5-year plan even accomplish in the long run?
>>23629153He isn't a new blood when it comes to TV unlike Ayumi Shimo but he would certainly be a fantastic pic, I really like his anime and he has been pretty great as an episode writer too.
>>23629156Does anyone believe this fear mongering nonsense? Where's the raw data?
>>23629159His second show saw the first increase in sales since Kyuranger and did a lot of buzz online, if King-Ohger hadn't had QA issues and stopped shilling its mecha in the second half it would have actually saved SentaiUltimately it didn't accomplish its purpose since Sentai died regardless, but maybe it's for the best because it means that Gavan and Universe Heroes will get official subs, but I blame Bandai more than anything for Sentai's failures
>>23629159We got Inoue back.Also I'm pretty sure the five year plan was cancelled once Zenkaiger proved to be a failure. They literally never mentioned it again once he stopped being head producer despite frequent interviews with both the other producers and him every year, the only people bringing it up like it's relevant are on here and those same people probably believed Universe Heroes was real too
>>23629171More than Zenkaiger the plan probably stopped because King-Ohger. Omori mentioned that instead of the usual process for picking producers where producers make requests showcasing their availability to make a toku with Shirakura and Tsukada having the final say on who gets picked, Omori started pre-production in secret with the two Minatos, Kami and Mochizuki in order to coerce them to pick him because he desperately wanted to stop making Kamen Rider shows because he felt he was out of ideas for the franchise.
>>23629178I really hope Toho gives Omori something concrete, I miss being excited when his name popped up in staff lists
>>23629095There was a character in Dogengers that did exactly this for his finisher. Everyone makes fun of him because it takes fucking forever.
I sense a great disturbance on the internet. It's as if thousands of Brazilians suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced that it isn't Metalder.
>>23629199But Brazil likes Gavan too and their favorite Metal Hero is Juspion for some reason
>>23629199Brazil loves Juspion, it's basically the most iconic tokusatsu there (followed by Changeman, but Black also has a solid following).>>23629200It had the "first!" buff, just like the first Kamen Rider is iconic in Japan.
>>23629156Who's fucking isn't? We're heading towards a Depression when the AI bubble bursts.
>>23628812Dude's been going through some serious health issues the last year or two, he doesn't have much longer left sad to say
>>23629064Metal Hero isn't even a real thing, it's just a fan label to a bunch of unrelated shows that aired on the same time slot while Kamen Rider was kill.Shows can range from Blue SWAT (3 guys in military uniform, but with a metal vest and helmet, fighting monsters by using grounded weapons) to Janperson (full robot with no human form fighting against wacky criminals).>>23629199Metalder isn't popular on Brazil.>>23629200Juspion was the first Metal Hero and the one who ignited the Toku boom in Brazil.
>>23629205>>23628812His people released a statement last year that he's sorry for worrying everyone and is working hard every day towards rehabilitation, but rehabilitation from what is the big question.
Didn't we just have a fucking thread saying this and everybody laughed at OP?
I know it only lasted two series, but I wonder why the audience was cool with Big Bad Beetleborgs compared to Masked Rider which got cancelled?
>>23629221Yes because this board is filled with a bunch of shitposters, I understand not believing it because the Metal Heroes movies weren't that successful but the people not accepting even after the newspaper report are retarded shitposters
>>23628840As the other comment said, I think they see value in holding on to that Super Hero Time block
>>23629226Flabber really elevated the material.
>>23629136Source where? I thought they were taking the Spring Vcinema slot hence why Gavv’s got its moved early
>>23629226Because Beetleborgs were really fun and had cool designs. I remember loving it as a kid. Masked Rider was an absolute dogshit of a show, and Black RX gets shit on for his hunchback design even in Japan.
>>23629226Masked Rider was bad MMPR while Beetleborgs was Scooby Doo.
>>23629226Masked Rider was the worst 90s Saban toku by a wide margin.Also even if it wasn't Kamen Rider was going on hiatus not for financial reasons but due to production in-fighting so it wouldn't have had footage to take from regardless, even going backwards wasn't a good option since they already introduced the previous Showa Riders in Masked.
>>23629228I mean, which boards on 4chan aren't filled with shitposters?
>>23629231I look like this.
>>23629233I can't find the original post but basically Rinne's actress posted a picture that she finished shooting something Kamen Rider related that isn't Girls Remix and then a leaker (I forget if it was color or the thai leaker that leaked most of Zeztz's news) said that it was a Gotchard/Gavv crossover that would take Super Sentai's summer movie slot with Gozyuger VS Super Sentai getting more budget than usualDoesn't anyone have the original post and the original leaker claim?
>>23629201Gavan is easily the bottom of the barrel in popularity here, since it suffered from a botched TV schedule, a trashy dub script, and was released after Sharivan AND Shaider.
>>23629242>Masked Rider was the worst 90s Saban toku by a wide margin.Even worse than Next Mutation?
>>23629245It didn't used to be this bad for /m/ and /tg/, even /v/ and /a/ which had lots of shitposters somehow became even worse recently if you can believe it
>>23629226Beetleborgs was a good show. Masked Rider was a shitty sitcom pretending to be a toku show. Meanwhile Beetleborgs was this love letter to american media like comic books and the universal monster movies. It had a vision for the project. Masked Rider had nothing but fumes.Compare the openings:>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6UDWDcfm3c>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UapMPX5iYc

>>23629259I actually forgot that existed, my bad. Worst 90s Toei toku adaptation then.
>>23629262Managed to find the original posts by the leaker, this is the same vietnamese leaker that said most of the information about Zeztz, can't post the actual full link because facebook:share/p/1Ds7QGok16/share/p/16XghA2Ntr/You're right I misremembered hard, it doesn't mention anything about the crossover movie taking the usual Sentai summer movie slot
>>23629163lol it’s bogus
>>2362907410 bucks says the transformation item is a phone
Does Saban or whatever have the rights to VR Troopers? Does this fall under VR Troopers?
>>23629335Man, they can't Gavan transformation comes from a fucking spaceship, even on the movies that we had a few years ago it was a spaceship.
>>23629338i don't think saban ever had any rights to gavan, and for the metal heroes shows he did have, it does not apparently include distribution of the original japanese versions
>>23629338Discotek has managed to release adapted Metal Heroes seasons on BD despite Hasbro cockblocking Sentai DVDs so the rights aren't the same.
>>23629340The the transformation trinket will probably signal the spaceship and absorb energy and such similar to KR Meteor. Modern kids need their henshin items or else no new show.
>>23629338>VR Troopers?No, Space Sheriff it is it's own series with gavam Sharivan and Shaider. Gavan is the most famous of the 3.
>>23629356That'll be tricky they will have to complete remake it because there's no transformation trinket and if they'll do that there will be a lot of old man rioting in Japan. Well, let's see how they will handle it.
>>23629374forgot to include thishttps://files.catbox.moe/dii4ra.webm
>>23629374Yeah, it should be more like Kuuga which was similar to every preceding KR show.
>>23629004please let this be successful enough that we get a new entry in the Winspector trilogy. It's been so long since we've had an emergency response themed tokusatsu
>>23629025it was the last good sentai, yeah. It would've been a much more kino finish to the series than an inferior xerox of DonBros with a shitty cast member scandal ruining the final stretch of it
>>23629004Please let there be a pretty boy as Gavan. With lots of homo ship teasing. I need the fujo's to latch onto this so we can get 10+ seasons and lots of merchandise.
>>23629025Sentai ended with Kiramager.Afterwards only Bunboomger felt like one.
I wonder if this might encourage Discotek to pick up the pace on Metal Heroes releases. Think they have 8 left?
>>23629374There's no show without a transformation trinket. Bandai needs the toy sales and we know they are shit at making good robots these days so that way is out until they unfuck that part of the toy design department, which would be forever with Japan nowadays.
>>23629439gooncoomger felt like a bad sentai
>>23629095This stopped being funny when Saber had belts that did full blown monolouging for real
>>23628807Am I supposed to watch Gavan first before this?
>>23629474if you haven't watched it already you're ngmi
>>23629462But it still felt like a Sentai and not like whatever Zenkaiger, Donbrothers, Kingohger and Gozyuger are.
>>23629460That's the tricky part, including it, without fucking the transformation for both new and old fans. Well there's the spaceship, but I don't know if that counts.Heres the whole transformation sequence:https://files.catbox.moe/d01ozp.mp4
>>23629479Shit, guess this one ain’t for me and the 3 year olds.
>>23629490Donbros was like Sentai of the late 80s-90s. It was alot more dramatic back then.
>>23629519Kind of, not really, but that's not what I'm talking about anyway.For starters, it wasn't really a team show.
>>23629524They were more like a team than alot of other Heisei Sentai. There were momments they were like a family.
>>23629433Here is your SUPER Gavan writer.Get ready for lots of innuendo between Gavan and his partner and their mentor Geki
>>23629490>whatever Zenkaiger, Donbrothers, KingohgerGood shows?
>>23629474I doubt it's relevant in a continuity sense, but it'll be filled with references and the original is a fun show so you should watch it anyway.
>>23629424All the rescue toku happened before the 2011 earthquake, is it even sensible to do it now I wonder?
>>23629570Rescue police is not that interesting in my opinion. Those shows lack focus and more importantly, a main antagonist.
>>23629579If you think about it, Paw Patrol dominated the toddler cartoon scene and it uses the same kind of concept as those rescue tokus. It's even popular in Japan as well.Not saying it has anything to do with this whole project, but maybe it was a missed opportunity by Toei.
>>23629579Exceedraft literally gets one in the second half of the show. Plus the Rescue trilogy shows were supposed to be police procedurals.
>>23629548please, give us literally any other writer than her
>>23629586Because both Solbrain and Winspector were abit dry to watch so they had to shake it up with Exceedraft. After that they ditched the concept completely and made Jiban 2 aka Janperson.
>>23629594You rike?
>>23629548Junko doesn't care about het couples too much
>>23629579Rescue isn't interesting overall, Rescue Force is also a drag. GoGoV is neat though but it's the exception.
>>23629554Good shows by themselves. Bad Sentai shows.You can also argue that Zenkaiger and Kingohger were Metal Hero already.
>>23629602Zenkaiger feels more like a successor to Uchuu Tetsujin Kyodain.
>>23629602And Ex-Aid and Saber were Sentai
>>23629605I was thinking Kabutack and Robotack, with a bunch of robot suits, but fair enough.>>23629607Not quite, but Saber came close to that.
>>23629023shaider has Vavilos that sometimes transforms into a giant robot, but it rarely happens though. it usually transforms into a gun as some mid-game finisher.
>>23629023New Gavan doesn't need Sentai mecha. But he will have power ups similar to Kamen Rider.
>>23629615Ex Aid had 4 Kamen Rider allies. Pretty close to Sentai.
Reminder that NuGavan will have multiple upgrades, along with a Secondary Sheriff, Tertiary Sheriff and Rival Sheriff.
>>23629619That's a guarantee. The concept of evil Sheriff was introduced in Sharivan movie and it worked.
>>23629617More like 8, but they also constantly fought, died and resurrected.In all honesty, Build after Gentokun joined was more like a Sentai.
>>23629615It can have a Rider mecha, like Time Mazine, Breaking Mammoth, King of Arthur, Revice Fusion forms, etc.
>>23629622Seigii was the best part of Sharivan New Gen.
>>23629207This is a "romance robots isn't a thing" post. The label exists and is officially used by Toei and Bandai.
>>23629338No. Even if it didn't Saban doesn't have the rights anymore. When VR Troopers appeared in the PR comic they had to notably tweak the designs to not look too much like Metalder and Spielban. Just like how he doesn't own Black RX anymore. The only "I get the rights for this franchise forever and ever no matter what anyone does" contract he got was with Sentai. Everyone else they'd caught on and signed reasonable contracts. The exception is if they showed up in a Sentai season in which case he could use them for that season but didn't own the characters which is how Gavan and Jiraya showed up. Which meant they could have used Ex Aid in Cosmic Fury if they really wanted to.
>>23629641I believe Toei legalized that name when the MH was still having new shows. Some article didn't include Jiraiya due to his matte costume, but eventually regconized because his suit is made of alien metal. Toei obviously pushed for Metallic armor as the brand's gimmick.
>>23629619this is exactly what i hate about modern kamen rider
>>23629651Black introduced the concept. You can blame the last Showa Rider for that.
>>23629617But they weren't a "team" they were occasional allies. They spent most of the show at odds with each other, or with one dead, or some having lost their transformations. When they mean "no team" they don't mean one guy alone for the entire series they mean not a color coordinated group of 5 who have to be attached at the hip all the time so they can pose together use their various combos together and all have to be in every episode and transform in every episode and can't die or otherwise be removed from the show until the end if ever barring an expected actor replacement.
>>23629639I mean he was entertaining but he was just "The world is shit and justice is nonsense I became a cop just to have power to abuse for myself"
>>23629659> I became a cop just to have power to abuse for myselfThe realism...
Will we get a female sheriff?
The problem with reviving Space Sheriffs is they were carried heavily by casting experienced stuntpeople as the leads to make the fight scenes more epic than Sentai and Rider and go easy on the effects for later in the episode. Or in the case of Shaider cast a stuntwoman as the sidekick and had her do most of the pretransformed fight scenes. I'm assuming they're not gonna do that again because now all the agencies want to cast their pretty boy potential stars who don't have the skill and won't be allowed to risk marring their faces even if they do.So unless every show is gonna cast a Naomi Morinaga or Miki Hara as the heroine it's gonna be lacking
>>23629683The fact that it's GAVAN specifically is the most problematic, Ohba's shadow is impossible to escape, and toku actors of that caliber simply don't exist anymore
>>23629695Just hire someone who doesn't look like a bitch.
>>23629695At least they tried with Geki. Even if he was lacking.
>>23629699It's not that easy. Ohba was near 30 and had already been working in Toku since Goranger and spending two years as Sentai regulars doing his own stunts before becoming Gavan. There's nobody of that caliber in the business.
>>23629701If Geki bulk up and change his hair style, he would be perfect.
>>23629699That's kind of impossible by modern agency standards.
>>23629699It's not so much the looks (that's part of it) but his skill as a physical actor and batshit stunt guy
>>23629706He's probably too old now though. I know he's only in his 30s but they rarely cast leads of that age. Maybe he can be a supporting character though, assuming they don't completely reboot continuity.
>>23629704It is not about his grandiose, the fact that he is the original Gavan makes you compare later guys to him. Especially when you look at Deka Red mimic in Gozyuger. Played by Konishi the OG Garo himself, objectively manlier and more intense, but would you accept him as your new Deka Red? Hell no, the true Deka Red is Ryuji Sainei. No one is gonna replace him, no matter how cooler they might be.
>>23629579The problem is that "guys with highly advanced power armor curbstomps regular criminals" isn't very cool for big stretches. Winspector and Solbrain both wind up getting big retools mid-season and it feels like Toei just didn't learn their lesson. >>23629586Exceedraft's second half is insanely good.
>>23629683Modern seasons seems to have more out of suit action scenes compared to like, early Heisei, but still they're rarely like the dangerous Showa stunts.
>>23629716Rescue police feels like anti-toku, minimizing the amount of special effect and suits. It is not very engaging to watch, especially when you came for the practical effects and got bog standard filming instead.
>>23629728Dangerous stunt was not worth it. Masato Akada got his spine broken and got full body paralysis. He is living in literall hell just because of the poor working condition. Japanese film makers just don't know how to protect their stuntman.
>>23629346It's less about the rights specifically and more about Saban insisting they own the very concept of shows like this. Completely original sentai esque things were strong armed into giving him credit.
>>23629598Yes>>23629548I am excited.
>>23629759like you said they were strong armed because they didn't have money to fight, it's possible saban would've lost in court if it got that fari don't think hasbro would ever be foolish enough to go after toei on this, but who knows
>>23629226Masked Rider was a bad comedy (remember when "FUCKING FERBUS!" was a forced meme during the early days of /m/? Also, hello fellow oldfags) disguised as a bad toku show who's only contribution was giving us more Zu footage with the OG suit that Saban somehow got shipped abroad.Bettleborgs was just scooby do and the additions of mummy, frankenstein, and gay jay leno were harmless at worst. Plus, it was considered the "spiritiual sequel" of VR Troopers which also helped.
>>23629709Completely unrelate, but I swear I will find out who was the stunt actor (not actress, the suit was too bulky) that played Keris in ohranger before I die, I swear.
>>23629710Depends on the market they want to hit. Since Metal Heroes are directed to a more "grown up audience" (not really, but you know what I mean), 30s sounds about right. Not saying they will fuck it up and completely miscast the role by your generic good looking way-too-young japanese with very minor stunt work, but you never know!
>It's fakeLol good thing I'm not a retard.
>>23628807>40 years ago Metal Hero taking Kamen Rider spot, now Metal Hero taking Super Sentai spotCrazy
>>23629944I'll never not be sad that when Discotek checked, the masters for Masked Rider are too far damaged. We'll never get a better release now.
But will it be my boy New Gavan or will it be a NEW New Gavan?
>>23630167New New Gavan obviously, since the reports we got before this trademark is that it's the tv show replacing Sentai and also about the lead being cast recently.
>>23628807>Gavan>againYou know why Kuuga succeeded in reviving Rider? He was new, not a rebootquel. Gavan is cool and all but Metal Heroes aren't just the space sheriffs
>>23629651So you've hated it from fucking Agito which had those things?
Any confirmation that this is real?
>>23629695I think this here will be more Gavan INFINITY. Like they are reusing the brand name, but it will be like Kamen Rider 1 compared to Black or Kuuga. You can see the connections, but it will be obviously a new design, not something like New Gavan that just tweaked the colors.
>>23630223You could check the trademark bot on twitter. It's real.
How angry/trying to pretend he knew about it actually is Dukemon/Matt Hunt right now?
>>23630206in case it wasn't clear, i was referring to the picture, where there are 12 riders each with 100 different formsa few is fine, gaim was my limit
>>23630244literally who
>>23630259A billion riders with an infinitely flexible henshin system was Geats's gimmick, not a trend.
It will be dead in the water if the music is not up to par with Gavan'shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75AM3fAPGtI
>>23630279>not a trendpicrel
>>23630294and then then next 2 shows only have 5 Riders maxand Zeztz only has one so far
>>23630294The last two years had three mains and a few supporters each, this year will probably have small numbers too, inbetween gaim and geats there were also more series with 3-4 mains than not, you are a baby nonwatcher.
>>23630294Yes, Gaim and Geats are outliers, same as Ryuki.
>>23630309and you are seemingly offended about that?you calling me names on 4chan is not gonna change my mind
>>23630321ryuki was comfy though
>>23630328>I'm totally not affectedIf you are replying you are affected.
>>23630362if by affected, you mean drunk on a week night, then yes
>>23630345That's the first show with a ton of Riders and exactly what the likes of Gaim and Geats emulate.
>>23630259>I HATE FUN AND I EAT RAW EGGS FOR BREAKFAST, OH GOD I MISS KUUGA
>>23630372>>23630376keep it up guys, i've never had so many (you)s in my life
>>23630381>I was only pretending to be retarded!
>>23630404no, i just don't feel like talking in circles
will they use retsu>they're still using the leaked plotwhy
MC will be some young looking scrawny dude.
>>23630414Nu Sharivan was cool. It can work.
Dude what if they cast Prince from King-Ohger since he's a stuntman? Oh dear god monkey paw.....
>>23630414>>23630435The dude for the Gavan Infinity role.
>>23630484Taro is already a Metal Hero.
>>23630484Taro is manlier than your favorite red.
https://x.com/Decadethethird/status/1990859685327745056This is an obvious fanfic, but honestly, imagine if they actually did this. Sounds fun.
>>23630488What if my favorite red is Taro?
>>23630484No this rising star.
>>23630489No thats quite real, the thai toy store guys have been mentioning it.Gavan is just name only, metasl heroes is just a stomping ground for toei to completely reimagine.Throwing everything not rider into the pot to make Universe HeroesGavan infinity is Red Teams up with a Ranger like female other rangers introduced later like rider. kabutack like companions.wand changer, that combines with each partner individually to make a specific Kaiju roboGavan can grow like gridman and combine with kaiju and combine with robo partner separately. has nothing to do with original space sheriffs just using the recognition.
>>23630535I can't take these dogshit "leaks" seriously.
>>23630538Anon's said the same thing about gozyuger and Kingohger and we were pretty much told the show and toyline before it even appeared.
>>23630540Anon KingOhger had an actual toy catalog leaks so people could make a less muddy prediction, especially when it comes to designs. All of these current dogshit leaks so far are nothing but fake news.
>>23630548we did not get toy catalogs for Kingohger Q1 we got them for Q3 with castle, only people who got toy catalogs for Q1 and Q2 were retailers who were also leakers.
>>23630553>we did not get toy catalogs for Kingohger Q1 we got them for Q3 with castle"We" got the scans. The retailer got them from the start, in person.
>>23630557and those toy scans for Q1 were never posted publicly, only explained in text like they are every year since we stopped getting scans. the same guy who posted the gozyuger helmet drawings last year is saying this is happening. whats going to happen after december 1st? like every other fucking year anon we'll get the toy details.
>End Sentai and team based toku>Bring back Gavan>give him multiple forms and shit like Rider>sell toysIt was that easy and they finally did it.
>>23630535I think it's fake because it sounds like a bunch of wishful thinking>female POV character like in Dandadan>mystery monster show like Ultra-Q>also Demon SlayerWe're talking about a Reiwa era replacement for Super Sentai. They wouldn't allow it, too much shonen manga influence.
