So new chapter in Japan seems to be a pretty obvious reference in the new enemiesShits going downReally hope this gets season 2 some day
>>23705199>Evil Rangers based of the big name kaijuNot on my bingo card, but I'll take it.I love how much this series loves tokusatsu.
We need more Yihdra
S2 likely would start where the manga left off since the flashback to Red's first quest would be a good opening episode but how far would it go? 12 episodes at the around pace of S1 would probably get through Bad End as the best place to capstone the season but that very quickly leads into a fairly lengthy series of events that all chain into another.I suppose there could be some bonus content in between the end of the fight and before Patchwork explains the Demon Queen's nature.
>>23705630A good intro episode would actually be the special K5 prologue chapter since the anime definitely loved doing the Sentai stuff. From there, assuming its 12 episodes, they should at least be able to get to the port and leave for the Demi Humans, and maybe cover Bad End, assuming no special stuff like an original K5 flashback episode again (Which I wouldn't be against)
>>23705199Oh, I thought we were wrapping up.
>>23705199Cool, the Digimon Frontier arc.
>>23705695Nah, back in...September? August? Whichever, what people thought was the final arc ended with a surprise lead in to a new arc.>>23705708Oh no, its better. They aren't just blatantly based off of 5 of the biggest names in Kaiju, they are called the Demon Sentai Stella Five, so they are deliberately invoking the Evil Ranger typeAnon who asked for Kaiju after Ultra Lowji got his wish,
>>23705199Is that a shovel?
>>23705743> 5 of the biggest names in KaijuHuh. I didn't realize Biolante was so crucial. Wouldn't have been one of my top picks in any regard. GIGAAAAAAAAAAAN! RISE!
>>23705754>I didn't realize Biolante was so crucialYou weren't curious why it was picked as one of the ones to appear in the Godzilla/Evangelion collab?
>>23705754>>23705772It probably also has to do with who those 5 are and call backs to that arc. The Biollante one was the one with earth magic did the field work. A plant kaiju fits with that. The stuff for each is probably tied in to their character.
>>23705218It makes perfect sense since the Negarangers were kaiju but I wouldnt have expected them to be references to anything like this either. Really fucking awesome.
>>23705199>RightMothra>Bottom RightGamera?>MiddleGodzilla?>Top LeftGhidoraNo clue about bottom left. They looks Kaiju themed MonHun players.
>>23705831Bottom left seems to be biollante
>>23705199What, no Rodan?
>>23705831Top left looks more like Gargorgon to me personally

>>23705872Only 5 slots in characters, so some weren't gonna make the cut
>>23705831>>23705887They should be weak to Headpats!
>>23705199I'm really looking forward to next month's chapter to see how they get out of this considering all five of thr main cast are at their limits right now.Also wondering what this means for Vidara and Domad now that their mom has some new kids.
>>23706311>Also wondering what this means for Vidara and Domad now that their mom has some new kids.Considering how she is, I'm sure she's fairly likely to disown them, especially Vidara since she ran away. Wouldn't surprise me if she ends up killing her like she did Shau'ha for one reason or another.
>>23706368I'm expecting something for Vidara since currently she is thoroughly unsympathetic. Even Vidan managed to get some sympathy from Azir as he died.Given the trend, they'll have to do something to introduce her reawakened past life memories.Domad is still probably in her good graces though. He just probably is not dealing well with everything that went down since he isn't a bad guy, just on the wrong side. He definitely could get a redemption arc.
>>23705199Given the revival, I wonder if we get a Metal Hero now that we have kaiju.
>>23706414I think that things are a bit too neat for the author to make some last minute changes like that.Something I think would be fun would be if the final chapter has a brief gag where Red does the "Sentai Handoff" to someone completely out of context at the end of the series with the isekai cast wondering how they know each other and Red saying they've never met but knows they'd have a good bond.Having someone with a more bulky and gritty Metal Heroes appearance and story setting for contrast would make for a good comedic impact.
>>23706414>>23706421If we get one, it'll probably be because he planned one in advance, which, I wouldn't be surprised by. Nakayoshi has been pretty good with his planning and everything thus far.Just like Azir came back and got to be his own Rider (Still weird he isn't with the main group right now) I wouldn't be shocked if, say, Connor came back to prominence since he also got a lot of focus his arc
Its been exactly one year today since the anime premiered.Probably one of my favorite anime last year.
>>23705754Biollante is one of the most popular films in Japan. Japanese fans rank it as one of the best in the series. They’re totally wrong though.
>>23706311>I'm really looking forward to next month's chapter to see how they get out of this considering all five of the main cast are at their limits right now.Surely this is the best possible time for the rest of the Kizuna Five (plus Kiyoshiro) and Shau'ha to come to the rescue, right? Between us now having confirmation that the scene at the end of the anime is canon to the manga as well, and Shau'ha (who has shown herself to be quite skilled at teleportation magic) recently being killed by the Demon Queen and thus likely going to Tougo's world, this is the perfect opportunity for that to happen and for us to get a quaint sentai vs. sentai battle (with a full roll call that Yidhra excitedly joins in on). The only potential downside would be Shau'ha stealing Yidhra's thunder by figuring out other world teleportation before her, but you could get potentially around that by having her only partially figure it out, i.e. as a one way trip to her original world with absolutely no idea of how to get back. That would also allow you to have an emotional moment with Tougo being touched that they'd go that far that for him.
>>23708275Kiyohiro, rather. Had his name right on the image I posted and still messed it up lol, must have focused too much on him being Kizuna White
>>23707695Which is incredibly ironic because it initially flopped in Japan, which in turn caused the sequel series to cybercop (toho’s second attempt in a sentai like series) being canned AND reorganized into the metal jack anime by sunrise
>>23708275>The only potential downside would be Shau'ha stealing Yidhra's thunder by figuring out other world teleportation before herYihdra already figured it out, or at least is on the track to, by using the Doppelgangers.
>>23708628Ah, okay. I looked over that chapter when it first released a couple of months ago, but not knowing moon meant I could only glean surface level info from it, nice to hear that it's even less of a potential issue than I thought.

>>23705199>The evil rangers were actually kaiju from Earth who reincarnated>Plant guy is clealry going to be Lowji's rival, so he may based on an ultra-kaiju>Mothra girl is going to die>1 or more of them will become good guysWhich of these is most likely?
>>23712514Those first two definitely aren't trueIf you're behind on the manga, I won't spoil further, but these guys aren't new characters.
>>23712514>Plant guy is clearly going to be Lowji's rivalLowji's opponent is going to be the Godzilla inspired one, considering that it's the kid he bonded with.

Imagine if Yihdra actually dies here and gets isekai to earth
>>23717553Imaging if you shut your goddamn whore mouth and die
>>23717553That would be pretty dumb and kind of spit in the face of what happened with Bad End.
If we're sharing crackpot theories/concerns as to what might happen to Yidhra, here's one: What if the Demon Queen plans on trying to corrupt her with her vile mana? Vidara plotted to do a similar thing with Teltina, and it's definitely been established by this point that the Demon Queen is every bit as evil as her children, with her and Vidara seeming the most similar in character. There's also potential foreshadowing in the fact that Yidhra had very high affinity with the succubus demihuman transformation, which (obviously) just so happens to look demonic.

Does this look like a good roadmap for season 2?>Ep 13: The remainder of the Sun Forest arc>Ep 14: Flashback to Red's first day after getting isekaid>Ep 15-16: Age regression arc>Ep 17-19: Orphanage arc + Cloning Bitch>Ep 20-24: Demi-human country arc up to Bad End, ending on cliffhanger with the Shauha reveal
>>23727687>ending on cliffhanger with the Shauha revealThey might omit this the same way they did the Sun Forest reveal
>>23727776>They might omit this the same way they did the Sun Forest revealThat was mainly because there wasn't enough room for it since the Bansou Killer flashback was expanded from a couple panels to an entire episode. But even if a similar episode happens in season 2, 4 episodes should still be enough to get that far
>>23727687Good roadmap.
>>23727997They could always do more. Everyone loved that episode

https://xcancel.com/nakayos_koyos/status/2017937949145587726#mThe mangaka has acquired the Yidhra figure.
>>23734177nice boobs
>>23731173What irks me about this product is that that the mecha designer made sure the combination and transformation will translate well in toy form yet Kotobukiya half-assed the said gimmick.>>23721792
>>23731173>>23734209Would making it a brick like a normal Sentai Robo toy be worth soul points?
>>23734257Nah, I don't think that would fit it particularly well. That, by design, would be more fitting for Giganjured General.
>>23734209I'm pretty sure model kits will forego gimmicks for aesthetics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysO6rBd1ovUIf this series were to get into a SRW game, what other series do you feel it would mesh well with?
>>23741388>implying SRW didn't die since T
>>23741388If you're adapting the actual plot, you obviously want other fantasy world stuff. Wataru, Dunbine, Rayearth, etc.Whether you're doing the plot or not, you also can throw in other toku-adjacent series like Gridman, Fuuto Pi, Ultraman anime, even Tekkaman Blade, etc.
>>23741388Dunbine. Or New Dunbine, because they could make Show and co part of the original Hero party and play into reincarnation angles. Either way, Dunbine is probably the best due to it also having reincarnation cycle stuff.Other Isekai mecha stuff like Rayearth Outside of the isekai angleJeeg or Kotestsushin Jeeg since Hiroshi has always been a bit of pseudo Toku hero.Majestic Prince could be cool since Ees is exactly the kind of hero Izuru loves.And the impossible, but actual Super Sentai.
Tomorrow is the 10th in Japsn. Spoilers within the next day or so.I'm really excited to see what happens next.
>>23741388Everyone mentioned pretty much everything. Maybe Sakura Wars to go with the love theme. Brave series, GunxSword because the El Dorado and all the classic 5 man team series that predated super sentai ike Combattler V. Dancouga for animal themed combiners.But itd be fun to add even more contrasting elements than just isekai fantasy and sentai. Something like Big O. Imagine Roger having to put up with all that shit.
>>23743450The raw sites I use tend to update with the new chapter right around midnight the 12th JST, so it's roughly a bit more than two and a half days from now
>>23743487Wild card option of M3 since it's about bonds and connecting as well.
>>23743923I would very much like any attention given to M3. Oh the lightless realm would make for good times
>>23743487It'd be cool if with the Eldora and Combattler or Voltes teams they tried to do their interactions in the style of Sentai VS movie

>they were both mega chuunis
>>23746585Bit of a slowpoke moment, but the chapter 48.5 TLs getting ripped recently made me realize that those are the only chapters so far that aren't whole numbers. I'm guessing that was done intentionally so the mangaka could delay the use of 50 for this month.
>>23746585Didn't realize a new translation dropped. Nice.[SPOILER]Red and Sabi are definitely reincarnated linked, this chapter settles it, if they really are building up to Yihdra and Silver that way. But I still wonder what this means if Bad End's world has no Silver. Silver seems to be such a huge X Factor because of everything.[/SPOILER]
