Post your farewell words/thoughts on Super Sentai as a franchise.
>>23742283>"We'll meet again"Someone at Toei doesn't have faith that RED will last.
Dunno if legit but I saw this.First cour will be like a long arc?
>>23742283I liked Gozyuger overall but it was a really weak finale for the franchise, almost off-putting with all the last minutes editsBut the franchise as whole I will miss it it's easily the most consistently good toku franchise ever made and I hope that it remains as such if it ever comes back
Ooh, feels so fresh and new in here.Nice to meet you /red/!
>>23742291Serial is good
Reposting hereJust reminding you guys I already have the Google Doc ready for Gavan Infinity.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tabKpZI7o-ROaDlKbhsS8BagB7IXyuQnFNimAPx8Dns/edit?tab=t.0I still need to add the flourishes and stuff but feel free to add this to the next OP, or don't I'm not your dad
>>23742288Unless they completely discard Sentai's identity from RED, it really won't last.That and it's not like there aren't a bunch of rumors saying that RED will keep crossing over with sentai
>>23742291I heard someone say it will be more episodic but they're taking summary from AI, so if anyone knew Japanese and confirm it, would be appreciated.Gavan Presscon>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pnsz4WblzVc
This is officially starting next week?
>>23742302sankyu reiwanon!should definitely be added next time in preparation.
>>23742308yes>>23742291good if true
https://x.com/tokusatsu_fc/status/2020316656791105901can someone explain this?
>>23742291Haven't seen the video yet because it's region locked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DurqQpqoZlYWonder if Kuji wants the show to feel like King-Ohger due to the new demographic and him working on it before? But I don't know everything they've shown so far feels like bootleg Dekaranger to me rather than King-Ohger
How's your current mood for the premiere of Project Red's first entry, Gavan Infinity?
>>23742308Gavan Infinity is starting next SHT, yes.
>>23742314I think it's just the next .5 episode of Gozyuger
>>23742320I'm looking forward to it.
>>23742320Hyped. Seems stylish.Love the music feel and its seeming general atmosphere.
https://twitter.com/ProjectRED_Toei/status/2020331755933466860
>>23742283Shame it had to end on such a wet fart of a series/finale that also got mired in controversy that may be the main thing it's remembered for, but Sentai as a brand is just too iconic to ever disappear into nothing. It'll still get TTFC specials and movies, and it'll probably return in like a decade.
Noooo I want more Sentai even though I haven't watched 4/5s of it!!!
>>23742320Everything shown so far looks awesome, if >>23742291 is indeed true then it makes me hopeful that Tomioka won't leave the show which if so the show might end up being awesome
>>23742288More like, its impossible for anything in the modern media landscape to truly end.No one with a brain thinks sentai wont ever return, regardless of how well PR does.
>>23742281Thank you for not using a retarded name/red/ was the right choice
>>23742320I don't need it to be the greatest thing in the world, I just don't want it to suck
>>23742328Was expecting to commander to be the previous Gavan but I guess it's this guy judging by his gloves
>>23742332I have completed literally every Sentai from Goranger to Gozyuger and I DEMAND MORE!
>>23742335this.>TTFC will probably still make miniepisodes with previous series like Kingohger in space or similar.>all previous sentai are still on streaming>you better believe previous sentai will appear in Project RED at some point (specially if the show's in decline, but i doubt it will happen here with Gavan, i feel it might make it).yes, we WILL definitely see them again, in one way or another, and not necesarily in 10 years or so but way, WAY sooner.
>>23742285>>23742302Thank you very much reiwanon! Will definitely do so next thread>>23742336Personally I preferred /ttg/ but obviously it's better to listen to popular demand, also like the other anon said this name is much more easier to search than /ttg/
>>23742281Hello /red/, Magine is my wife.
Ok so this team very clearly isn't going to be considered the literal "Number 1 Sentai" of all time, that much can be generally agreed upon.So what would personally you say is a more accurate number ranking for them to be ranked at out of all 50(ish) Sentai series?Number _ Sentai Gozyuger
>>23742328Glad to have you aboard, DILF. Please, for the love of god, do not stick your dick into any of this lot!
>>23742350He's gonna stick it in the emorgears
>>23742349Number 49 because it sure as fuck ain't Number 50.
>>23742349well, none of them was called Smitty JagermanJensen so of course Gozyuger was never gonna be the Number 1. in a Top 10, i would put them in #5. thats as high as i can put them.
>>23742349Worst sentai team ever. Especially if you include Polar
>>23742288>VS movie already announced>GozyuPolar mini-series>Rumors of Boukenger 20th>Tsukada saying that he believes Super Sentai will return to SHT eventually>Shirakura saying that he wants Gavan Infinity to last at least 5 years proving that even though he was OK with the franchise ending he doesn't have confidence that this will last eitherNo one is ever really gone
>>23742349I honestly don't feel much of anything towards them as a team. As of recent I loved the Boonboomgers way more aka my cute boons.
>>23742281Posting in /red/general in hopes that Infinity ends up good. Also has sub groups planed to work on Gavan Infinity or is it getting official subs?
>>23742349I liked all 6 of them but definitely on the bottom 15 at least
>>23742359They've hinted that it will get official subs but no official comment yetI haven't seen any sub groups commenting yet
>>23742356So PRED has 5 years to make enough money to buy the Sentai rights back from hasbro or everyone committs seppukku
>>23742356>No one is ever really gone'cept Maya
>>23742359Its announcement post got retweeted by Shout which may mean its getting simulcast subs, but time is seemingly going to tell.If it doesn't, O-T might go for it.
Why still link the killed ttfc mega lmao
>>23742350Luminous is so fucking cute
>>23742356Project RED is supposed to be more experimental, while they are starting with a new Gavan, its not planned to be a revival of metal heroes.for all we know the next RED might be a fushigi comedy like Poitrine, armored rescue workers like Winspector or Solbrain. maybe robot policemen like K, Jiban or Janperson. maybe even the return or more classical heroes like Zubat, Kikaider, Inazuman or even Kagestar.nobody knows for sure.
>>23742363The 5 Years Plan MK2
>>23742291That's really really good. Looks like they are going to follow the KR strat. That is the way to go. It has been proven to work and do well.
>>23742360Damn that's low, so what do you consider the worst Sentai?
>>23742373i'm still not convinced on the whole 'everyone's a Gavan'maybe Bushido should be Sharivan and Luminous should be Shaider. hell! 'Gavan Death' just sounds retarded.
>>23742318Just for you anon.Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity Super Close-Up>https://gofile.io/d/0CGDoHNo catbox because I download it on mkv file format.
Tono Hoeru is ___
>>23742368Hope this gets some good art so we don't have to deal with slopa for days.
>>23742377They can't blow their load too early in case this becomes popular, Sharivan and Shaider are "for later".
>>23742376Really hard to say but maybe Fiveman? I suppose that for most of the general the worst team is LuPat though since Keiichiro is the only member that I've seen any love here for his character rather than his looks
>>23742377I think we will absolutely get a Sharivan, Shaider, and maybe even Estevan down the line. But the way they are doing it these are all Gavan's from different realities. So it kind of makes sense. Needless to say ill give it a chance. The suits are cool and everything we have heard about it makes the show sound like they are going to try hard for it.
>>23742380The glizzy goat
>>23742380pathetic, but I like him in spite of it
>>23742380gay
>>23742377They don't want to use up the names incase they have to make Sharivan/Shaider Infinity as future shows.
>>23742380brocon
>>23742377It reminds me of an old Star Wars rumor I read that said all the Jedi in Rey's Jedi Order would also be called Skywalkers. I hate it.
>>23742368Her face is too puffy, granny like
HD first episode preview images?
A NEW HERO. A NEW LEGEND.CHOU JOUCHAKU!SUPER SPACE SHERIFF GAVAN INFINITY
>>23742283>sentai ends>they all jump off a cliff
>>23742283>>23742288I don't understand what they're thinking beyond that, maybe if Sentai goes away for a while, when it comes back the sales will spike due to absence? But the lack of confidence with Gavan Infinity, down to calling it "Project RED" and saying it doesn't have anything to do with Gavan is so telling. This just reeks of a desperate marketing ploy that no one is buying. Commit or don't.
>>23742397These guys are a manzai team in the making aren't they
>>23742381me too, her suit is really nice
>>23742399Hearing Ayako Kawasumi narration is pretty satisfying.
>>23742320Lookomg forward to it being mid and them desperately trying to save it while sellong the exact same amount of toys sentai did.
>>23742406They really, REALLY don't want to make better Sentai toys. They will bruteforce overpriced bricks until the end of time.
>>23742411And she's gonna narrate the transforming sequence every single time
>>23742407They're a manzai bully team to be specific
>>23742283>>23742405They all look like they've been drowning their sorrows with booze and are now utterly shitfaced. Gokai Red's pose is uncharacteristically spazzy, Red Buster looks like he's trying to limbo and/or having a stroke, there's what I think is DynaRed falling over between VulEagle and Zenkaiser, and GingaRed tripping up behind TimeRed and NinjaRed.
what happened to the ttfc folder?
>>23742427Some spergy hater of Ei probably reported it and got it all taken down.
>>23742358The bunbunz is honestly quite underrated as a team
Going to be honest with the Mayanons, there's no way she's returning on screen in this life, JAV or not. The nips don't forget easily and she absolutely ruined Sentai's already subpar finale and dropped it into shit tier
>>23742363It will probably come back regardless if they aren't able to get the rights
>>23742454Girls should stop acting and reproduce to save Japan anyway.
>>23742380Absolutely the second worst red, right below Takaharu
>>23742460You mean above Takaharu.
This is the first ever /red/, if this franchise becomes like 10+ years old then some archive diver will be reading this thread right now and trying to remember the "good old times".
So in the end who's the director and writer for this?
>>23742454I just want to hear from other people involved their take on it. I'm at the acceptance stage of never seeing her again. But I still want someone to step up and speak their mind of the situation.
>>23742481That's probably gonna take 10 years before anyone from cast and crew can speak about it.
>>23742480https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/dd7fbcfe0b93a17c453f88fe4d132ad64acae219Hasegawa is the writer, Shun Miyazaki (Tatsusaki?) is the director.
All in all I hope Matsuura keeps making shows aside from pushing Asai to be the red despite knowing he was sick I felt that most of Gozyuger's problems were things outside his control and that most of his ideas were legitimately greatWith Akiko while most of the issues of Gozyuger are definitely her fault, I hope she gets to head a Kamen Rider show, I feel like just like Komura she would be able to pull it off, but just like Komura I really hope she never touches Sentai or any team-based Project R.E.D show for the rest of her lifeAnd I'm saying that as someone that liked Gozyuger, Zenkaiger and Zyuohger, Komura and Akiko just can't write Super Sentai to save their lives, that said if Matsuura gets picked to do a Project R.E.D show with a team and de dies to hire Akiko again then I'll take back any of the positives I mentioned since that would make him as retarded as Mochizuki
>>23742283a lot of good ideas some with terrible executions and others perfect, great mecha designs like magikingit has something for everyone and i'm sad it last show was so boring
we need to get shirakura fired
>>23742484>isn't angry like his emorgear thingylame, cool sentai bro
>>23742491
>>23742498They're stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he were a grouchy arse he'd be Hoeru 2.0.
>>23742494He's overhated, but I'd rather him went back to being a producer rather than overseeing, honestly same with Tsukada, I'd rather Hikasa oversaw things
>>23742494>japanese companies ever firing their old menlol
>>23742491>MochizukiHe's really frustrating since he's probably the most competent vice producer in Toei history besides Omori, and his ideas as a head producer are all amazing but goddamn he's absolutely fucking terrible when it comes to picking writers, honestly his ideas are good enough that he would probably be good as a writer

Hadn't seen this sexy image from Yodonna's actress but since I don't know whether it's new or not I'll just catbox it https://files.catbox.moe/xfcwia.jpg
which of the girls are we allowed to lewd
>>23742491>https://prettycure.fandom.com/wiki/Inoue_Akiko>You now know that she was writing Pr*Cure at the same time she was supposed to be head writing GozyugerChrist, no wonder the show was such an unholy mess.
>>23742530Bushido's handler
Your Gold
>>23742543She was just an episode writer, with Gotchard she was a có-head writer, Gozyuger is the first time she heads a showA better comparison would be her novels which is why before the show started every old fag in the general was already expecting for everyone in the team to be shafted to focus on Hoeru, like really just look at her Decade, Precure and Butt Detective novels
>>23742543she wrote some of the worse episodes too
>>23742546She isn't hot but her partner is, but I don't really mind that since she's apparently a good actress and knows how to handle action from what I've seen from the reactions of the nips, which is weird because the trailers make it seem as if she won't fight outside of the suit due to being a forensic
>>23741276I like both of those shows a lot but personally both of those shows have pretty weak starts so be ready for that but after the first major arc ends for both they're smooth consistently really great>>23741281People hated it because of the production issues, even though we didn't know the whole Yakuza and tumor deal at the time we knew that the producer wasn't really feeling and he left halfway throughSo for people here it was situation similar to Hibiki because of that and to Saber because the first quarter was really weak causing many to drop it
>>23742546>forensic scientist >19????
I want Gavan to succeed, I think it'd be fun to have a new long running Toku series from the big dog themselves. But I also think those first few years where Sentai comes back and they're not sure whether to count Project Red retroactively as Sentai will be really fucking funny.
>>23742591Going to be Battle Fever all over again
>>23742591I think them going with Gavan here rather than an original IP pretty much guarantees it will always stay separate.
>>23742547No wonder Gotchard sucked. This nepobaby should be nowhere near toku.
How we feeling my fellow Joe Chuckers
>>23742291The last 10 or so episodes of Boonboomger were really good so if he does more things like that I'm sold
>>23742610I am ready to chuck joes
>>23742609She's the least of Gotchard's problems, almost every single issue with Gotchard was the producer's fault, in fact the show improved the arc she joined as part of the show's writers although not really because of her but rather Hasegawa, although she did help at giving more vision to Rinne who by the end ended up being the best of the trio of Riders writin-wise which didn't matter because of how much Rinne's actress suckedHowever she is the cause of most of Gozyuger's problems, like really aside from the controversies you can pinpoint almost every issue in the show to her
If I start training right now would it be possible to become a stunt actor in time to work on Sentai when it comes back?
>>23742636Gotchard and Akiko suck but don't give genuine replies to low-effort shitposters
>>23742640Never give up on your dreams anonBut keep in mind that you'll need to join an agency after learning and getting a stuntman license
>>23742640Becoming a stunt actor is really difficult anon, a lot of work and training.If you actually want to give it a shot and this is the push you need, give it a trial run. Sentai might be back in five years to a decade or so, who knows at this point if it's an actual "this is a solid franchise end" or if it'll come back like it hibernated.
>>23742640possibly.you won't be having sex with with young female actors though.
>>23742283Good riddance.
>>23742640You mean in the Japanese stunt acting space? Can you speak fluent enough Japanese? Are you already fairly physically fit? Do you know all the paperwork and shit you gotta go through?
>>23742636>which didn't matter because of how much Rinne's actress suckedOnly if you're a hyperbolic shitposter.
>>23742640lol why would they hire you and not the 1000 athletic japanese guys already in line?
>>23742640Do they even hire foreigners as suit actors for toku shows? I’m sure there’s no hard rule against it but that might be a big obstacle for that goal.
>>23742664Speak good Japanese and do the work properly and they probably don't mind at all.
>>23742661Because I’m a real go-getter with a positive attitude and good work ethic!
>>23742664>>23742665They don't need to. Sentai has existed for decades and already has enough backup suit actors for heroes, mooks and villains.
>>23742659I'm happy that you like Rinne anon, but for most people she's played by a miscasted actress that never improved like picrel, which sucks because she's the best written one from the trio
>>23742666Anon they even have suit actors for bicycle stunts. And they're japanese. They got all the bases covered already.
>>23742666That's how you get a job that lets you buy a house, two cars and provide for your entire family in the 70s
>>23742668But we've gotten several new actors in the past 3 years, but most of them start as mooks, then go to stage plays and lastly become suit actorsBut now that I think about it I think every single one of them are japanese, most westerner suit actors in Japan work on action dramas and live-action adaptations of manga, usually with the agency that did the action for John Wick and that Sakamoto music toku that's coming out this year
>>23742664https://japanactionenterprise.com/talent/Don’t see any foreigners here
>>23742659why are you suddenly defending gotchard immediately after shitting on it?
>>23742151>forgetting that Asai said he didn't plan to retire until the Final Live Tour>forgetting that the affair leak didn't just say that Asai would retire, it said Asai would retire soon, 2 weeks before the sudden announcement that he was forced to leave mid-show>believing Seju and Toei would go through all the hassle of firing a talent mid-show for something that never got leaked to the public before they made their official announcements>believing Seju and Toei wouldn't be willing to lie about the reason of her firing in order to prevent the scandal from being much worse than it was
>>23742674>Sakamoto music tokuI'm intrigued
>>23742672That doesn’t mean they’re literally never going to hire new actors ever again.
>>23742671Thinking one cancels the other out instead of evaluating them separately as aspects of the character is a highly reductionist way of thinking.>>23742677I didn't shit on it, though I'm not a fan of it either. The post you just replied to is my first comment in this whole conversation.
>>23742681The episodes are 14 minutes long so I don't expect it to be great, it's called Beat Runners>>23742674Actually I take it back seeing BOS' site I don't see any westerners there even, but they've apparently have stunt actor training for children which I didn't even know was a thing: https://www.bos-entertainment.com/To which action agency does Tom Constantine belong to?
>>23742683They're not gonna hire some newbie gaijin over their own kind for a hero suit actor role. Being in a hero role also requires specific body build and proportions that they are looking for.
>>23742688Huh, a fully suit acted show about an alien defense group stopping space vikings? All directed by Sakamoto? Sounds cool.
>>23742688Rival Stuntshttps://www.rivalstunts.com/
>>23742685We should continue this conversation on /krg/ but clearly you can understand why most people don't like Rinne, like yeah bad acting doesn't always necessarily negates the rest, like for example Hoeru from Gozyuger and Takeru in Ghost's side content but in the case of Rinne it was moren noticeable than usual and the thing with her and the other example I posted is that in both cases not only were they unable to portray their role properly but they also didn't improve at all overtime which is a rarity for Toei toku, they usually improve at least a bit as the show goes along, hell Houtaro from Gotchard was the same whose acting was distractingly bad aside from his despair scenes but by the end he had improved enough to do his role well, but he's the worst written of the main trio so people ultimately end up liking Spanner the most.
Gozyuger's finale episode thread: >>23742696
>>23742661If you're young enough skilled enough and speak Japanese well enough to be trainable and you showed up at JAE's tryouts they might honestly take you just for the fucking novelty, although you'd be like Tom, a bit character who plays Gajin roles and nothing else. If they ever have a character like Ramirez again you might get that suit role but don't count on ever getting a major one.
>>23742585they'll age her up like Sumino
>>23742377Brazilians are likely huehueing at the possibility of a new Juspion. I would be too. Hoping we get a new Winspector, it seems like the actors are down for it.
>>23742718Neo-Winspecter would be the tits
>>23742406That and it theoretically resolves any contracts they had with Saban and Hasbro. If they bring it back too quickly, Saban could argue bad faith.
>>23742546Her face is so derpy. She looks like she has the Downs. I love her.
>>23742721That photo is a really bad angle
>>23742718Didn't the actors of the protagonists of Winspector and Solbrain make a pilot movie for a Winspector successor? Hopefully it gets picked but I'm not getting my hopes up after that pilot made by Sakamoto, Arakawa and HurricaneBlue's actress got rejected
>>23742343 >you better believe previous sentai will appear in Project RED at some pointThey can't release anything featuring any Sentai thing in any of the overseas regions that belong to Power Rangers, which are most places in the universe.
>>23742725She looks ugly in every single one of her photos.
>>23742740If you say so, anon.
>>23742406The Super Sentai pipeline is closed tight now. If Hasbro and Disney's attempts to resurrect MMPR fail horribly and they're left to use Sentai footage as a last resort, the Sentai footage and suits available will be VERY limited.
>>23742742Honestly. I think that what Toei wants. They probably really want to get back the rights for Sentai distribution to the west. I don't think the Power Rangers remake will be any good. So its possible.
>>23742742Some people suspect that's a feature of the plan. If all attempts to get idenpedent PR fail and Hasbro goes begging for more Sentai footage to use Toei can just say "Sorry we pulled the plug because it wasn't making us money and the contract doesn't say we HAVE to make Sentai for you to have PR footage" Then Toei has the upper hand and can demand they renegotiate the contract as a condition

Gavan Infinity got a challanger on same time slot.
what did you guys do to celebrate the end of super sentai?I went with my toku nerd friend to the official super sentai/kamen rider cafe, had a king ohger-themed karaage+potato plate, some Kamen Rider Kuuga curry, some ZEZTZ drinks, and topped it off with a kamen rider ichigo jelly dessert.
>>23742809It's over.....good
>>23742814Very jelly of your outing, Japanon.
>>23742775she's not doing any kind of public facing job period. If she's lucky she might land a desk job somewhere nobody recognize her

>>23742829He's the kind to pretend to JOUCHAKU in the mirror in his space base quarters while AGI jumps him and he gets all flustered.

>>23742320Invoking Gavan's name and making a Space Sheriff homage as the first Project RED series sets the bar pretty high but then they show off a suit that's less armored than the average Rider, a mountain of toys and giving the EmorGears literal butt windows sets my expectation that it'll be to the same quality as most Reiwa tokusatsu so far - overwhelmingly mid.
>>23742838lucky...I wish I could clean it with my tongue
>>23742845Oh hey it's the anon that can't get the emorgear butts out of his head
I bet the last episode will have them transform without the changer.
>>23742826
What was Sentai's final episode count?
4th Gavan is Gavan Raiya, ninja theme. no new mecha, uses GCR like everyone else. Insert new ID into sword to transform.
>>23742380bad
>>23742320I like what they have shown.
Got a feeling they originally want to just make Unicorn entirely in suit (with the voice actress from before) for the final two episodes after Maya left, but then they heard about her image can't be used because of the contract so they cast Kohaku after finished filming most scenes.
>>23742866That the helmetless line up had Unicorn with the helmet still on was fucking laughable. Gozyuger's main legacy will be all the Maya scandal shit I swear.
>>23742870You don't have to swear, it's obvious it will be that.10 years, 20 years from now newfags will ask "How is Gozyugers? I heard it was one of the worst sentai ever but not sure why" and all people will talk about is the scandal
About 2,457 TV episodes. What a legacy.
>>23742863I find it weird how's he debuting a month before Gavan Death, or at least his toy is
>>23742364>Inb4 Maya somehow redeem her career so that when Gozyuger 10th happens Maya is back as main Sumino
>not making the extras sharivan and shaider
>>23742377Yeah, I would rather have Bushido and Luminous be called Sharivan and Shaider, and Gavan Death is Spielban while the "6th" is Juspion.
>>23742883Means jackshit when everyone has a different suit and name anyway.
>>23742886But then what would they call the next show?
>>23742888The next show in Project RED might not even be Space Sheriff focused, that's the whole point.
>>23742521Poor Juran
>>23742882>Gozyuger 10thlet me guess, the plot is Sumino suddenly evil by attacking and stealing warriors' rings, which turned out to be she got forced to do it because Oto became a hostage of the new enemy
>>23742888Metalder (could also include Janperson) . And then B-Fighter. And then Changerion. Boom.
>>23742893And the new enemy is played by Kohaku Shida. Or swap em around
Super Sentai sex with gremlin.
>>23742899hell yeah!!!
>>23742899This but with Ayame Misaki
>>23742899This but with Erica Murakami.
>>23742899This but with Mao Ichimichi
>>23742899I'll raise my glass to that.
>>23742899This but with Maya Imamo— wait hold on...
Mmmm Kohaku Shida gangbang
>>23742283It will always have a special place in my heart because Power Rangers first got me into Toku way back when. But honestly I haven't really cared for the last few years and I'm more hyped for Gavan. Even so, sayonara old friend.
>>23742918She's 40+ only.
Interesting, so even way before, they have already planned Gozyu to be the last
>>23742899based
>>23742899I didn't watch Gozyu but watched the last episode and holy fuck she's hot now. Maybe even surpassed her sister.
You know people say Zubat could be a Project RED? I just realized if they did indeed do him, they're gonna retool Zyuoh Eagle's Eagriser into his whip.
>>23742882>Gozyuger 10th V-Cinext>The Gozyugers fight the Double-Up No-One>Sumino is split into MayaSumino and KohakuSumino>Maya is still the black with pink accents GozyuUnicorn>Kohaku becomes the pink with black accents GozyuPegasus>They have sex
I can't believe she's already doing JAV
So, I'm jumping the gun here. But what are the chances of Gavan Infinity getting a VS with Gozyuger?
>>23742949Kino
>>23742933Whip swords are literally always cool
Maya and Kohaku making out
>>23742962We have enough footage. Judging from the last 5 years' progress, this will be doable locally and uncensored in another 5 years
>>23742964With the amount the AI data centers are slurping up consumer RAM and GPUs though. Bubble can't pop soon enough.
>>23742949>lesbo shitZzzzzzzz
>>23742962yeah that's what they've been doing for the last 4 months
>>23742949Gigakino
>>23742771>>23742778They do tongue in cheek references here and there, but yeah, they don't really address the others, despite sharing so many behind the scene staffs
>>23742949>the pink with black accentsdid anyone ever reversed the color of Gozyu Unicorn like this?
>>23742962https://files.catbox.moe/0bbp9n.mp4
>>23742814>I celebrate the end of Sentai by eating Kamen Rider foods
>>23742956Kinda ruins the point of Project RED being separate from Sentai.
>>23742974learn to read
>>23742956Likely since the Gozyucast contracts would include three movies. It's possible they'll do VS Super Sentai tho
>>23742380A pitiable punk that I can't help root for. Dude got dealt so many bad hands it's endearing to watch him struggle to find his place in the world.
>>23742976I did. Choosing Kingohger cemented it
>>23742956It would be Gavan Infinity VS Metal Heroes because of the 45th anniversary in 2027.
You wanted Shin Sentai but you get Feet Sentai instead
>>23742380The worst Red they could end the series with. Fuyuno acting aside, his schtick as a loser got old quick and any development he has felt forced
>>23742829Koto could be the fifth, if it means she herself would want to go on interdimensional adventures with Kiki. Still think the two are gay and have been dating for a while.
>>23742972During the day of Maya firing /ssg/ had a pic of pink Gozyu Unicorn. Some even wish it could be Oto or Bouquet.
>>23742814no way, I think I saw you guys, did one of you guys end up going to pee at some point during it? with glasses and khakis If yes, yall need to eat less for some tall fuckers.
>>23743000sorry to burst your bubble, but these two are the gay ones.Also the fifth is Bushido's commander, will post pics after.

>>23743088Ui was a bright spot in early Ryusoulger, then she disappeared for 3/4's of the show with no one knowing what happened, then it was revealed she has "some kind of illness" and that's why she never appeared again until basically the finale with a much puffier face then before. Then she died like a month later, pretty crazy.
Yo! Gozyuger 49 is now on the Reiwa Sentai Viewer! Thanks to OT for the last year of subs! See you all next week for Gavan Infinity!

Full translation of the Matsuura/Akiko interview from February 2 since I don't think it was fully translated here:Finale at Last! Can Hou Get His Hands on "Everyday Life"? — Special Pre-Finale Interview with "Number One Sentai Gozyuger" Writer Akiko Inoue × Toei's Daigo Matsuura>>What discussions did you have about the late-game plot twists?>Matsuura: We didn't lock it in from the start, but we kept talking about "What should Hoeru's wish be?" To find that wish, we considered having all the rings gather to Hoeru with a twist like "everyone around him disappears".>Inoue :We decided it late in the game, right? Remember that yakiniku meeting where we discussed "Who should be the final boss?", when was that?>Matsuura: In terms of scripting, it was around before Ribbon-chan appeared. It was summer, after the Rei arc settled down, and we were planning the New Year developments. I suggested to Akiko, "How about a series composition yakiniku meeting for the finale?" (laughs).>Inoue: The Rei arc was the toughest. At first, I couldn't fully grasp Rei as a character. Director Nakazawa helped refine his character route, and I was grateful for that.>Matsuura: But in the end, it landed well—sticky and humanly flawed. In a way, it's like "Alternative Kuon" (laughs).>Inoue: Normally, Super Sentai has about one character like that per show (laughs).>Matsuura: No particular fixation, but if people say "You're stuck on old-school guys", I'd reflect on it (laughs). Rei became super clear thanks to Ryoma Baba's performance. I really love episode 34 from the Sakamoto team, "Scattering War, Gray Brilliance". After the Rei arc wrapped, we got to "So, who’s the final boss?"(1/?)
>>23743136You mean something like a Fushigi Comedy-style magical girl show under the Project RED banner? I mean, it could happen? Sky's the limit.
>>23743147>>Were there multiple candidates for final boss?>Inoue: Vaguely, from writing episode 1, when Saori's title changed from "landlady" to "manager", I had this vague idea of her as a "cosmic overseer". Not seriously pitching "Saori is the Calamity boss," but it felt like a hunch. Matsuura brought up the "Fire Candle idea" at the yakiniku meeting. There was also a plan where we didn't set a specific final boss, and the ring tournament finals just morph into the boss fight. I found the Fire Candle idea appealing too, so personally, it was a great choice.>Matsuura: I was surprised people found it unexpected. Isn't the first rival becoming the final enemy a classic? Like Sasuke in Naruto from a shonen manga perspective. Probably everyone forgot Fire Candle was a rival (laughs). I thought that from reactions on set and from Akiko . From the start, I consistently wanted Gozyuger—a ragtag group of loners—to evolve into a Super Sentai over the year. Meanwhile, the super tight-knit family-like Bridan fractures into outcasts. That contrast felt fun, and I picked up on it mid-series—around the Shinkenger summer vibe? Making Saori the enemy lacked enough foreshadowing, so if we did it, we'd need to build from New Year. But with the ring tournament and Rex fights inside Gozyuger, we prioritized those. Rex's worldview inherited that "world manager" element, thanks to Kenichi Suzumura's expressiveness. The show's packed nature made it hectic (laughs).The Fate of Kumade, and the Modern Relationship Between Rikuou and Bouquet>>In episode 48, "Resolve for World Reform! In the Winds of Calamity," Kumade Mashiro meets a shocking end after battling Rex.>Inoue: I wanted Kumade to die coolly. For Kuon, I wanted humiliating survival (laughs). Viewers might not grieve Kuon much if he died, but they'd feel sad for Kumade. Kumade starts with a near-god perspective, thinking "My life's done." Death suited him.(2/?)
>>23743150The relationship between Rikuou and Bouquet felt refreshingly modern and sweet.>Inoue: That's one of my favorites. It built great drama. Personally, I kept it strictly idol-fan, never crossing into romance.>Matsuura: But he says some sweet stuff (laughs). Suzuki-kun's melo-power is too strong—"Fans will misunderstand!" Lots said that; he's a sinful guy (laughs). But Rikuo can only live that way, which is why he's an idol.>Inoue: Episode 42 was amazing. Bouquet says, "I... can live on. In a world without you", Rikuou replies he wants to walk together, and she nods faintly at the end. Marupi-san's Bouquet acting is spot-on.>Matsuura: Episode 42 was a robot scene we wanted from the start, perfectly realized by tokusatsu director Fukuzawa and director Tazaki. The "Choose your fave over blood family" theme—some won't relate. "Ribbon-chan's murder doesn't change; what's the intent?" Fair reaction. But Inoue's idea that idol-fan bonds outshine enemy-ally ties really resonated for me. Gozyuger is that kind of show. Even acquired bonds can become paramount, your true home. Here it's idol-fan, and I'm fully satisfied with that arc.>>Episode 47, "GO FIGHT Rikuo! When a Hundred Nights Dawn", had that memorable Bouquet cheering scene.>Matsuura: Episodes 46-47 wrapped meetings quick. The buildup decided it, and Akiko doesn't waver, so I trust her.>Inoue: Unusually fast. The cheering scene came while writing.>Matsuura: Shocked reading the script: "Bouquet cheers?!" Yamaguchi director laughed, "Gotta play the main theme twice; oh well!" (laughs).Kuon's Wish Was "To Forgive Hoeru" >>Episode 43, "Decisive Battle Quon! Gift from an Angel"" settled Hoeru and Kuon.>Inoue: I kept wondering, "What's Kuon's real wish?". From character setup, cursed by the queen, deep down "He wants Hoeru to save him". Fragile image, but I couldn't pin it. Writing their showdown, it hit: "Kuon's wish is to forgive Hoeru." That shaped the ending.(3/?)
>>23743152>Matsuura: I love the "forgive" ending now... Embarrassingly, at first, I didn't get Akiko's feelings. Reflecting, I saw Kuon through a "big brother" filter. I have a little sister, so as a brother, Kuon apologizing to Hoeru made sense, but Hoeru to Kuon? Rei stuff, proposals—Kuon did awful things. "Hoeru forgives or condemns"? But Akiko saw Kuon not as brotherly, but as "Hisamitsu Tono"—a boy who lost his youth in No-One World. It hit me: "Kuon was angry, sad, helpless." Scales fell at "Forgive me". >Inoue: When I said "Kuon's wish might be forgiveness," Matsuura went "I see..." (laughs).>Matsuura: We share manga tastes, so we chat about manga a lot. For Akiko, episode 8 Kuon is modeled after Illumi from Hunter x Hunter. "Illumi bullying Killua..." script came hyped, 4 lines of torment (laughs). Instant understanding. Fresh thrill reading Kuon's debut script. Expected Inoue-style Illumi, got "Is this Illumi? Kinda not?"—but it became that Kuon. Animate Times readers will get it (laughs).>>"Hahaha! Let's get married, Hou!" Got huge buzz.>Inoue: Didn't expect it. Naturally, sticky Kuon by TegaJune's side: "Tega Sword wants marriage, so Tegajune's vibe—marry me!" hyped Kuon an became a power word.>Matsuura: The "Hahaha!" sells the high tension.>>Did you notice cast growth watching the broadcasts?>Inoue: They did everything is asked, so I wrote freely. Kinjiro and Joji started feeling truly like the same person.>Matsuura: Matsumoto Jin-kun was incredible. Episode 46 Gozyu Eagle—we debated if he'd truly win at the end. "Does Kinjiro's personality want victory?" was discussed in plotting.>>The ring tournament heated up, shifting to Rex battles.(4/?)
>>23743154>Matsuura: Pairings were classic but grudge-based. Kumade's exit: Akiko wanted Terminator 2, Tazaki director got hyped (laughs). Director said T2's thumbs-up in the furnace homages TV Giant Robo. Written by Katsumi Igami (Akiko's grandpa). Tazaki: "Hearing it from Akiko? Thrilling!" Akiko blanked: "Oh? Glad you're pumped" (laughs). Btw, Akiko wrote zero August episodes. Favorite non-your episode?>Inoue: All great, but love Keiichi Hasegawa's Bouquet amnesia ep (27: "Win the Battle! Jackpot!").>Matsuura: Hasegawa praised us saying "Gozyuger rocks!". He loves Kuon, and wanted to portray him as evil as possible. Akiko felt stale, started mochi-pounding; "Push the villain path!" But mochi happened too (laughs).>Inoue: Matsuura's "Kuon police". Pulls back if too gaggy. Good balance. A.I. language worked well.>Matsuura: Cool bro speaking foreign tongue. Akiko overdoes fun (laughs). Toei tokusatsu risks gag-ifying such characters but I thought it avoided that by reaching a good balance.Differences in Scriptwriting Between Anime and Tokusatsu>>Inoue-san, you've written scripts for anime like Kimito Idol Precure, but are there differences compared to scripting for tokusatsu and Super Sentai?>Matsuura: I heard there were days that were like Inoue Akiko script sandwiches (laughs).>Inoue: Comedy is tough. In anime, even if a gag flops, you can power through with momentum and direction, but in live-action, when it flops, you really feel the painful awkwardness in the air. I sensed that the handling of those moments feels different. In anime, it just flows by.>Matsuura: Were there spots where it flopped?>Inoue: Well, here and there... (laughs). My bar for humor is pretty high. I don't even laugh watching variety shows usually. I write gags irresponsibly though (laughs).>Matsuura: Yeah, it might be different from scenes depicting anime-style humor.(5/?)
>>23743156>Inoue: Also, Toei tokusatsu orders scripts in pairs of two episodes. Anime mostly orders one at a time. For Kamen Rider Gotchard, it was like a two-parter as one story, but for Gozyuger, having to write two standalone episodes was tough.>Matsuura: It's a shooting issue—doing one episode at a time would mess up the schedule over a year. They want about a week's block for shooting cohesion, and over Toei tokusatsu's long history, they've figured out that doing one team per two episodes is just right.>Inoue: Up until now, when I'd contribute to an episode, I'd think of it as partly mine. But I realized the approach is totally different—you get to know yourself through the characters. I could dive that deeply, and people around me who know me said, "You can tell the writer shines through". >Matsuura: Through the characters, what parts felt like they reflected you?>Inoue: Hoeru, I think. At first, I thought this character had zero overlap with me. But as I wrote, I realized, "The closest one is actually Hoeru!">Matsuura: You were saying at first, "I don't have a Hoeru in me", and I remember calling you out like, "Liar!" (laughs). But that's because scriptwriters are versatile in a way—they can draw from so many parts of themselves. People who can do that are amazing. It's the human depth they've built up over time.>>The scripts were captivating with their dialogue power. Any favorite lines?>Inoue: In the finale, my favorite is Hoeru's line in the last episode—it's a line that embodies the show's theme. It's a question I have inside me too, and a keyword for the work. Please watch the finale keeping that in mind.(6/?)
>>23743159>Matsuura: For the late stages, I love Kumade's line: "Sorry I couldn't fight in the ring battle". I could feel Akiko-san really getting into the Rex parts. Calamities aren't good or evil—they're like plagues that always exist. The key is how you deal with them, and that story really clicked. I felt in sync with Akiko-san's thinking there. And the Sweet Cake lines were incredible too (laughs).>Inoue: You praised "Nanso ya pon" from episode 46, right? Actually, Sweet Cake is modeled after "me at home.">Matsuura: If you're saying "Tadaima Mountain Gorilla" at home, I'd question your lifestyle... (laughs). "Nanso ya pon" really made me go, "Nanso ya pon!?" But Ueda Reina reads lines like that with perfect rhythm—amazing! I could never write Sweet Cake's lines even standing on my head.A Milestone in the Super Sentai Series>>Gozyuger is a milestone in the Super Sentai series, but was that the plan from the start?>Matsuura: Actually, it was decided a few years ago that this would be a cutoff, but I wasn't told at all. I found out around episode 10. I was thinking, "Alright, new era starts now—I'll be the leadoff hitter and score big!" Then they said, "You're up in the bottom of the 9th". I was like, "For real!?" (laughs). It was a shock at first, but now I feel honored. The higher-ups like Shirakura-san knew and still assigned it—that's huge. I'm interpreting it positively as them intentionally keeping it from me (laughs). If I'd known from the start, I'd have shrunk back in all sorts of ways. In that sense, I'm actually super grateful. I told Akiko-san pretty late.>Inoue: I was shocked that Super Sentai was ending. I worried Gozyuger would feel like it was wrapping things up...(7/?)
>>23743160>Matsuura: But Gozyuger pretends to break out of the Sentai mold, yet we really tried to show "This is what makes Super Sentai great!" from the start. Instead of a cheap pivot, giving Gozyuger a good ending as a show is best for the series—we charged ahead with that mindset. The "grand finale" Sentai vibe is packed into the V-Cinema Number One Sentai Gozyuger VS Boonboomger, so look forward to it!>>Items like the "DX Sentai Ring" and "DX Tega Sword" were hits all year.>Matsuura: Gozyuger was a top student in numbers—ratings and toy sales were strong throughout. Bandai called thrilled about the "DX Ryou Tega Sword": "It vanished from shelves by Christmas! Hasn't happened in 10 years!" So I feel like we fulfilled our duty. The summer movie was a great finish line too, thanks to Kamen Rider Gavv.Super Sentai Hits a Milestone Amid Strong Winds and Storms—Delivering to the Finale Was Toei's Strength>>Matsuura-san, this was your first as chief producer—what are your thoughts after running the race?>Matsuura: Including prep, it felt like the longest two years of my life. But we did everything we wanted. Quick spoiler: The finale has a scene where the cast change issue is blatantly obvious—it's laughably patchwork (laughs). We had to shoot it during the toughest period, so we did our best, but seeing the seams makes me regretful. Every time, I feel like Hoeru's scolding me. Hoeru's been through a lot but keeps pushing to live in this world, right? So I think, "If I emulate Hoeru, this show can be a proud work too." I've decided to see it as a charm point (laughs). If you watch with that in mind, it'd make me happy. Above all, please see the cast's dignified faces—they powered through insane conditions. We could deliver this far thanks to Toei's studio strength and grit. Amazing staff and cast. All the chaos linked to what we wanted to convey. Lots of frustrations, no regrets—I'm clear-headed now.(8/?)
>>23743150>sentai could've ended with a MILF final bossthey should've been more courageous, we didn't Firecandle having another tantrum
>>23743161>>Production had lots of surprises, but you turned crises into chances too.>Matsuura: Gozyuger's "anything goes" world let us pull off the Shida Kohaku switcheroo. But episode 40's best part: The first minute wows with Shida-san, but by the end, our core—Rikuo and Bouquet's bond—reeled everyone in. That comeback was thanks to Marupi-san's effort, Akiko-san's character building, and Director Yamaguchi's work. Glad we made an unbeatable show—not every series could do that.>>Fans kept cheering through every situation.>Inoue: Lots of frustrations, but I'm glad it became a lovable work.>Matsuura: Yeah, fans sticking with us unwaveringly is huge. But one thing I've always wanted to apologize for: Including kids, cast changes might've made some fans who loved Sumino unable to anymore. I'm truly sorry. That's why seeing fans still loving Suminl—SNS fanart, G Rosso unicorn fans at shows—nearly brings tears. We'll keep making Sumino a cherished character so fans feel "It's okay to love Sumino." To Sumino fans: "Please keep cherishing Sumino. And thank you for the support!">>Finally, finale highlights and a message to fans who've supported for a year.>Inoue: The finale's theme is "everyday life," I think. Hoeru stumbled into No One World as a kid, struggled to fit in human world after, got dragged into the ring battle—always far from "everyday." Watch: "Can Hoeru grasp 'everyday'? What kind?" Fans loving the characters I created was thrilling. Fanart, theories—you name it. As an otaku myself, I used to be on that side, so having it for my work was motivating.>Matsuura: "Everyday" clicked for me after a year—"*Gozyuger* cherished it. Not past or future, but affirming the now we're living. Hope it became that. The finale's bold and polished—laugh, cry, unleash your emotions! Hate it or love it, fine by me. We'll go all out, so hit us back with everything. Thanks!(9/9)
that's a lot of green
>>23742244I haven't been able to get the full interview still, so the following is still lacking information, this is still some info past the paywall but I lack what Kuji said: On the Major Shift from Super Sentai to GavanShirakura reveals:>We decided to put the series on hiatus right from the planning stage">We decided to put the Sentai series on temporary hiatus starting from the initial planning for Gozyuger. Although I kept it secret from the responsible producers, I gradually steered the project to also serve as a grand finale for the Super Sentai era,Shirakura stated.The key reason was the business numbers from recent years, where Super Sentai had been significantly outpaced by the "Kamen Rider series," which airs in the same Sunday morning Nichi-Asa slot.Shirakura pointed out that one cause was "Rider" starting to "encroach" on "Sentai's" territory.>The signs began with Kamen Rider Den-O (2007), and the number of Riders appearing in a single series has kept increasing. In Kamen Rider Saber (2020), the number of hero-side Riders even exceeded the members of a Sentai team. Sentai itself tried to adapt, like adding more members in Kyuranger (2017) or having two teams at once in Lupinranger VS Patranger (2018). But as long as we're shackled by Sentai's 'rigid formula,' we can only throw curveballs (clever tricks) and not straight pitches (fight with our core strengths). That's the frustration we faced.>Super Sentai is a series that's lasted over half a century, with a format familiar to Japanese people: fighting evil as a group, and when the evils enlarge, deploying mecha for the decisive battle. The Super Sentai brand has become part of Japanese culture to the point where you can tell someone's age from the team they watched as a kid. Therefore, to throw a "straight pitch" again under the Super Sentai name, it was necessary to take time for a complete "system reset".On the Major Shift from Super Sentai to Gavan(1/2)
>>23743165>Although "Gavan Infinity" is a reboot of the 1982 "Gavan" the series won't have direct connections to the original. Instead, it will delve deeply into Gavan's story within a new universe.>PROJECT R.E.D. won't fixate on a single lead character. Next year, it could be a remake of another metal-armored hero, or a brand-new hero unveiled from scratch, or even something that isn't a transformation hero at all. This project opens up a vast new dimension of boundless creativity.>The production team doesn't want viewers shackled by the old mindset of "What's the next Sentai team?" Instead, they want the excitement shifted to anticipating "Who will the next hero be?">In reality, Sentai's production costs are actually higher than Kamen Rider's. So for this new project, they don't want to scale things down—they aim to create an image that's grand and highly efficient.>This time, they placed special emphasis on designing action scenes and space sci-fi elements. For example, the transformation sequence from spaceship to giant robot is set up to require internal approval from the Galactic Federation Police organization first.(2/2)>>23743164It was a long interview, way longer than I expected which is why I haven't translated the cast interviews yet, give me a few hoursI apologize
>>23743167NTA thanks for these
>>23743163So what I grasped from the Gozyuger interviews>Matsuura was aware that the finale edits would suck and actually warned the audience about it here>Rei was Matsuura's idea>Matsuura didn't tell Akiko this would be the last Sentai until the second half seemingly, he doesn't specify when he just says late>Akiko didn't decide that FireCandle would be the final boss until after she finished writing the Rei arc>The resolution of Kuon's arc and the resolution between the Gozyugers fighting each other were decided on the moment rather than being properly planned, this was done on purpose>Gozyuger's finale wasn't written as a farewell to Super Sentai on purpose and they intend the VS movie to actually feel like a proper resolution Am I getting this right?
>>23743101Just search for Anna Iriyama
I just realized the lack of traditional MOTW means less "writer's barely disguised fetish" moments. Those were some of the funniest parts of sentai.
>>23743165>But as long as we're shackled by Sentai's 'rigid formula,' we can only throw curveballs (clever tricks) and not straight pitches (fight with our core strengths)I was defending Shirakura before but this made me dislike him way more, why can't Toei understand that the main issue is Bandai's fault>>Tega Sword" were hits all year.>Matsuura: Gozyuger was a top student in numbers—ratings and toy sales were strong throughout. Bandai called thrilled about the "DX Ryou Tega Sword": "It vanished from shelves by Christmas! Hasn't happened in 10 years!" So I feel like we fulfilled our duty. The summer movie was a great finish line too, thanks to Kamen Rider Gavv.I guess Matsuura is here to stay, I'm all for it as long as he doesn't hire Akiko as a main writer again (except maybe for Rider), I'd much rather he'd work with with one of the many Sunrise writers Tomioka brought with him as episode writers for Boonboomger like Taguchi or Hiroshi Yamaguchi since they seem way closer on his wavelength, but for some reason I feel that he'll hire Akiko a lot in the future sadly.

>>23743178Gavan Infinity's monsters are like the Alienizers in Dekaranger.
Ep 49 is up on the mega folder
>>23743186thanks for service mabusheena
Wait a moment... Hoeru wishes to restart the ring battle, so he only revives the contestants and not all those unrelated people Rex killed the episode before
>>23743196don't think about it
>>23743196It doesn't make sense. You see Godness sorta fix everything in the previous episode but the other Gozyugers didn't come back.
>>23743141ahh now I remember Jumbowhale's passingand oh crap didn't realize that was Majin Buu's VA, didn't know he did a bunch of Sentai voice actingI forgot about dark rapper and that guy from ninninger sadly
>>23743167>>PROJECT R.E.D. won't fixate on a single lead character. Next year, it could be a remake of another metal-armored hero, or a brand-new hero unveiled from scratch, or even something that isn't a transformation hero at all. This project opens up a vast new dimension of boundless creativity.TL: We don't have a fucking clue of what to do after Gavan.
>>23743245Why do you get that from that? The whole point of Project RED is literally "we can do whatever we want, just the main hero is red colored." They probably have many ideas cooking.
>>23743187Huh did Tokonatsu/Tregear lose weight?
>>23743247According to an earlier interview they just have ideas for the next 2 shows after Gavan although they haven't settled on it nor picked the staffs that will make them, I don't know if they expect for producers from the 4th Project R.E.D season (if it doesn't get canciafter the third that is) to pick what to reboot for themselves
>>23743180>but for some reason I feel that he'll hire Akiko a lot in the future sadly.Because he doesn't have the credibility with the writers. I'm thinking one of the writers on Gozyuger either Hasegawa, Higuchi or Arakawa was the guy who turned him down to be his first choice as main writer on Gozyuger.
>>23743247Because Shirakura has already said before that they don't know what to do after Gavan.
>>23743245>>23743247>>23743261Frankly I see it as red hero with mecha, and it could be literally anything. They could even made fucking Garo knockoff, or a Gransazer knockoff.
>>23743257>Hasegawa, Higuchi or ArakawaArakawa wasn't at least since he specified it was a writer that hadn't served as head writer for Super Sentai before. And Higuchi was seemingly free since he did several episodes for Gozyuger so I doubt it was him too. Hasegawa might have been the one though. But more than credibility it's usually the willingness to do a year-long show and scheduling, like Boonboomger was Kuji's first gig as a head producer yet he managed to hire Tomioka who's a fairly prolific writer who had never worked with him before, but I guess Kuji also has a lot of seniority which Matsuura doesn't has.
>>23743140anime precure for girls and live-action precure for boys to get their dicks hard.
>>23742679I'm still hoping for Japanese Nostalgia Critic to expose Japanese TMZ like the Japanese assholes they are.https://youtu.be/pxZSZg-xbNg?si=stgvXXmy3x_2O64OSeju definitely has some of the fault for just daring to screw over not only Maya but the entire show production mid show. But this shitfest wouldnt have happened at all if TMZ (i know their name is Bunshun, but i dont care, they are japanese TMZ) didnt shove their noses because they are racist.
>>23743264>Gransazer knockoffbut this one is already a Sentai knockoff
>>23743148I could see a Poitrine as a secondary character but not really the lead hero, they probably don't want to alienate the boy's audience with a mahou shoujo of all things.
>>23743268>And Higuchi was seemingly free since he did several episodes for GozyugerThere's a difference between four episodes and handling the main writing duties of the main show. Akiko wrote the vast majority of the show like 30+ episodes for example.
>>23743165>But as long as we're shackled by Sentai's 'rigid formula,' we can only throw curveballs (clever tricks) and not straight pitches (fight with our core strengths). That's the frustration we faced.Any interview where he specifies what part of the formula gets in the way? At first I thought it was "team of many each with their own color" (emphasis on team) after reading again, Kyuranger had an extra-large team and either you count LuPat as 2 of 3 or do Boonboomger as an initial 3 though it gains 2 more pretty fast.If going into one direction then the opposite wasn't what it was missing, then makes me thing that the problem was other factor.
>>23743300From my understanding it's that Project R.E.D encapsulates a broader scope, meaning that the heroes might not be steal or might not even be henshin heroes like sole Fughigi ComediesThe hurdle that Sentai brings according to him in another interview is that some people dismiss modern shows because they think every Sentai is the same" because the franchise follows a stricter formula than Kamen Rider, so he hopes that Project R.E.D being so broad means that people will view this like Kamen Rider where every season is really different and they're more open to give them a chanceAnother hurdle is the whole Power Rangers deal which forces them to not be able to release official subs on western countries and not being able to release video games or reboot shows that release in worldwide platforms such as Steam and Amazon, but this is a minor hurdle compared to the previous one I mentioned since Kamen Rider is able to survive just fine without theseThe problem with this perspective Shirakura is posing is that it completely ignores the main reason why Sentai sells poorly which is that the toys just aren't that good
>>23743316Right the toy problem is the main thing. You can have great shows, but still be considered an absolute failure because your toyline is crud and the robots are shit. Likewise, you have Gozyuger over there according to Matsuura, which is considered a "success" because of what they and Bandai did with Tegasword (changer + robot + glove).
>>23743264>Knockoff! Knockoffff! 70s toku knockoff! 80s toku knockoff! 90s toku knockoff! Random meme anime knockoff! Everyone gets a knockoff because I, Shinichiro Shirakura, cannot come up with an original idea to save my worthless life!I just want Super Sentai back.
>>23743300It's just gobbledygook nonsense to excuse their incompetence and stupidity, nothing more nothing less.
Since Power Rangers is more trouble than it's worth to produce, as has been made abundantly clear over the last decade, Toei should have just negotiated a new deal with Saban/Hasbro/whoeverthefuck so that they would get a cut out of an internationally distributed Sentai. I'm thinking like how the Spider-Man movies are split between Sony and Disney.
>>23742283Reminder that Sentai died because of a woman
>>23743363Hasbro, Saban and Disney are jews, they just hand any of their IPs overThink of it like how Fox did Fantastic 4 and Spiderman reboots not because they liked the IPs or saw them profitable but just because they didn't want their license for said IPs to expire, where every negotiation to pass off the IPs failed and ultimately Disney had to buy Fox as a wholeI find this even more fucked up now that we know that Saban on top of being a massive asshole, to the point that fellow jews like KISS hated him, he also was a buddy of EpsteinUltimately the only way to get the IP back is if Disney goes bankrupt, Disney doesn't get to make a Power Rangers project a long while after their upcoming show results kg in the license expiring or Toei buys Disney which we know is never going to happen
>>23742996The funny thing is that Kumade did overshadow him completely. He's right when he calls him 2nd gen.
>>23743386Takebe just accelerated the situation, it's more Bandai's fault more than anything and kinda Hikasa's fault due to him overcorrecting after Ninninger which only caused more issues but I count that as a domino effect of TakebeBut also I don't get why you're getting fixated on the woman part when staff members like Yasuko Kobayashi exist and she's celebrated by most fans
>>23743389>Toei buys DisneyOh what a world that would be. Here's hoping Trump goes full retard and something something sanctions something something tarrifs something something puts the final nail in the coffin of both America and Disney.
>>23743401>Yasuko Kobayashi exist and she's celebrated by most fansThat's an exception and you know it. Takebe/Jr. Inoue/Imamori outweigh that positive.
>>23743300As I understand it, it's the team concept itself. Tying the heroes to a team. In another interview he mentioned how it makes it seem like the heroes lack individuality due to the format. Here, he goes on about them trying various different team formats, but it never being different enough. Note Gavan Infinity has multiple heroes like modern Rider, not a Sentai-like team that's a fixture of the show where they al must be fighting together basically every episode.
>>23743401I would lay the problem on:First for Bandai for letting the toyline rot for ten years and not doing enough in terms of innovations until Sentai was at death's doorSecond on Takebe for crashing the franchise with Ninninger that all the other producers tried to unsuccessfully undo what she did. If Takebe didn't do it, someone else would have done it eventually. The toyline was just not in a good place. But her incompetence with regards to Sentai is truly astounding.Third on Shirakura for making the decision to replace Sentai with Gavan so he can have his Boomer moment.
>>23743389You never have to sell your shit to these corporations. Allow them to show it subtitled or dubbed, give them rights only for that, don't sell the whole franchise. Even a tiny company like Harmony Gold screwed Macross over for decades. The filthy greed of those American companies corrupt everything, specially the biggest ones (see what happened with MCU and Star Wars once Disney got its claws over them).
I'm going in to this with very low expectations. I know it's just a Sentai with the serial numbers filed off but the way they're approaching it doesn't really install me with confidence. It feels to me like they aren't really sure where they're wanting to go with it, particularly tonally. We have all this promo material that looks serious and mature and then there's a collectable trinket with goofy faces that look like they're going to be just like Kamen Rider Gavv's Gochizo? Those things don't really mesh well.
>>23743408Imamori is an exception, most female actresses for Sentai font have controversiesWhen it comes to good female writers Japan has more great female mangaka than bad (but female novelists suck in Japan for some reason even excluding Akiko almost every single ones suck, Ai Oota who later worked on Gundam and Ultraman is the only female novelist that comes to mind as to actually being good)But I will defend you when it comes to female producers, while the Takebe is the only female producer to head toku so far, even outside of the toku industry every female producer I've sucks, like I remember that Anime producer that wanted to censor everything who did Bocchi and there's also the female producer who killed Digimon temporarily by mismanaging the fuck out of Xross Wars
>>23743434>female producer who killed Digimon temporarily by mismanaging the fuck out of Xross WarsHiromi Seki?
>>23743434anon I googled Xros Wars' producer and they're both men
>>23743288>OHAIYO! ORE WA NIHON NO NOSTARRUGIA KURITTEKO DESU I OBOETE IT SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO!>Japanese Nostalgia Critic, cosplaying as MammothRanger Goushi, sends Linkara to hell for being a Powerful Rangers cocksucker
>>23743463>>23743442Wasn't it because Seki Hiromi's mismanagement that Riku Sanjo decided to temporarily leave and serve as an episode writer for Fourze or am I confused?
The curtain has fallen on the Super Sentai series... I was truly taken care of—thank you so much And yesterday, 29 years ago, was the finale of Gekisou Sentai Carranger I played the role of Zelmoda as a regular I remember doing the final greeting on the stage at Korakuen Amusement Park, even though I was playing the villain I'm so grateful for that wonderful experience(＾O＾)https://x.com/koubouya/status/2020365978534834404
>>23743494Damn I hope he gets better
>>23743504>What are we meant to be looking at, mister?>It's Gozyu Unicorn. Don't ask...
>>23743430Keep in mind for example, in Gotchard, Bandai didn't force to make the Chemmies into characters at all. The cards could just have been lifeless collectibles.Unless the trailers have been basically lying, I guess this is what's happening with the Gavan collectibles. Even if they're designed with faces and such, they will be just objects for alternate modes/face changes in the show.
Has Ei gotten over Maya yet and revived the TTFC mega? He hasn't? He's still throwing a hissy fit? Good. He deserves every bad thing that happens.
>>23743245They do they’re just not revealing it because they don’t know if they’re going with the current idea of 2nd and 3rd lineup or if they’re going to reverse it. Currently its another reboot then a non henshin hero but again subject to change.
>>23743538They are seemingly living creatures since on one of the behind the scenes Infinity was treating his Emorgear as a petHowever since they haven't gone hard on the marketing aspect like the chemmies it's likelier that the Emorgear will be more like the Gochizo in spite of having a similar setup to the chemmies
>>23743541Hey Gashacon you do realize everyone knows you've been DMCAing the TTFC mega because you want to make your own paywalled version, right? Everyone knows.
>>23743347>I just want Super Sentai back.Gobusters 2 is starting next week
>>23743288Maya and Asai deserved to get punished for being dumb enough to fuck and cheat on their partners while working on a Japanese childrens' show.>because they are racistHoly retard.
>>23742849I also think they look retarded.
>>23743541Kill yourself.
>>23743165Kek so the magic academy rumors were complete bs I assumed they were scrapped sentai plans
>>23743167>>23743245Don't ask questions. Just consume project and then get excited for next project.
Sentai is finally dead I prayed for time like this bros
>>23742283rinkrink my rinkrink my rinkrink my rinshin jiru mono ga nanba wan
>>23743697>I prayed for time like thisWhy? If you don't like Sentai you can just not engage with it like a normal person
>>23742288Tsukada has even said it's just a "hiatus". I think there's a faction of people at Toei who were never on board Shirakura's ideas.Tsukada>Therefore, we don't see this as the end of the Sentai series, but rather a temporary hiatus. While we can't make a definite promise for when, Super Sentai will return.
>>23743713Anon Shirakura has also referred to this as a hiatusShirakura wants to make Gavan but even him admits that he isn't sure this is going to work ultimately Super Sentai ending is mostly due to sales rather than Toei as whole truly wanting to do so. Reminder that both Tsukada and Shirakura literally stepped down out of their own will temporarily as an attempt to increase Sentai's sales to make Kiramager, Zenkaiger and Donbrothers
>>23743504Kisses with Chisato and Miku.
>>23743261Not having the next show 100% decided is completely fine, they just need to nail one show at a time, not produce the next 10 years of shows at once.
>>23743753God I love Gekiranger, I was happy to find out that apparently the cast still hangs out together and that Jan and Leo even lived together for a while
>>23743757They do? Even when some of them retired from acting? That's great.
>>23743813Yeah Yellow, Blue and Chopper were hanging out together near the end of 2025, while Jan and Leo hanged out together also last year
>>23742829With how early Jiraiya is getting introduced I wouldn't be surprised if it's him
https://x.com/dailygozyuger/status/2020307107619512585Universe Warrior AbareRed in the Kumade mini-series. Man, they're just completely disregarding all lore from early Gozyuger, huh.Based on what we knew the Universe Warrior Sentai rings shouldn't even exist at this point since they're formed from the power of the sacrifice of the robots.
>>23743873> they're formed from the power of the sacrifice of the robots.That in itself is a retcon, anon. Previously it was the sentai team themselves sacrificing their powers until they changed it.
>>23743756nice jojo pose there, koichiro

Doug himself isnt any better, the dude covered up a bunch of fucked up shit behind the scenes. Why do you keep bringing this up? You look like an idiot

>>23743980Why are you mad at me? Be mad at the gooner. Unless you're saying you also think the whore did nothing wrong?
>>23742281Why does the suit remind me of Power Rangers 2017?
>>23743995Nigga we all know you're a gooner, groomer, and pedophile. You shacked up with Crt you fucking deviant. Kill yourself.
My wife
>>23744011Again. Why be mad at me when Ei is doing the same thing? His latest tweet is about wanting to fuck Rinne and Beroba ffs
I remember the whole debacle with crt. That was the first time I saw Ei's true colors and immediately did not like him.crt being a whiny bitch ass stereotypical reddit mod groomer was a whatever but when Ei started deflecting and pushing him under the bus and not only that, also accusing a whole bunch of random people of being pedoes while clearly being a pedo himself was fucking trashcan behavior. Ei has never interacted with me nor does he know who I am but I fucking hate him from what I've seen of him
>>23744032Yeah and you and Crt kept luring kids in on your subreddit to groom pal, get off your high horse and kill yourself. You're more annoying because you keep drawing attention to yourself. Don't wanna be called a groomer? Then stop attentionwhoring. I don't give a fuck about niggers on Twitter, I do dgive a fuck about Pikeamaster77 coming to shit up the thread for attention like we all don't know your preference for girls are the same as the age you started stealing subs.
I feel like anon is just shitting up the thread because he's mad we didn't call it /ssg/ - Space Sheriff General
>>23744039Thank you true believer!>>23744042You can deflect all you want Ei, but we know you're being a hissy crybaby about the same thing you keep blaming others for.
>>23743677Be a miserable piece of shit getting mad at something that isn't even out and get preemtively mad at the next year's project that hasn't even started preproduction
>>23744046I don't know who you are, nor do I really care, I'm just giving my own account of my own experience with him. I hate him for all the things I mentioned because of the fact he's a fucking creep, but even more so the guy only watches precure and toku to goon to underage girls regardless of the quality of the writing or the show, and shits up threads when the show is shit because he gauges each show on how much he wants to fuck the girls in each show.Basically a shit person with shit taste who drags his shit screaming anus all over the place.
>>23744039>>23744046>Over a minute and a halfQuit defending your rapist pal, Gashacon.
>>23744047Lol Jay Bauman in inverted colors looks spOOOky
>>23743757>>23743753Gekiranger is the one show I would love to see a 10th reunion for the most. The fact they all hang out together is a good sign that it's possible, assuming they'll still be making TTC movies during the hiatus.
>>23744018I genuinely want to nut to Kohaku but in a steamy onsen lovemaking way
>>23743626>Maya>Cheat on their partnersAccording to the anon who may know Maya personally that faggot boyfriend deserved it.
>>23743347Bud, the next show is basically Jikuu Sentai Gavanger. It's a rebrand of the rebrand
>>23743608>>23744075I unsneedonically hope that Gavan Infinity gets retroactively designated as a Super Sentai.
People have been calling or predicted Sentai's death/hiatus for years and they can't get over it?
>>23744076better start hoping that the MMPR reboot Disney is supposedly working on fails horribly and then Hasbro has no way but to beg Toei for new Sentai footage and renegotiate the contract.
>>23744018>hair looks closer to Sumino AFTER the show ended I know it's probably going to look worse if she wears a wig on a rushed filming but still
>>23744079Mostly because despite its death ww predictable, we got leaks of it and we've known why Sentai died it's frustrating how Toei seemingly doesn't understand why it died, meaning that unless they don't learn Project R.E.D and Sentai when it comes back will just die again, it just makes I feel like the franchise died in vain
>>23744080Yidsney-Hasbro isn't planning for or expecting the reboot to succeed. It's just a matter of farting out some low-effort slop movie or one season show every decade so that they can keep the rights.
I know that Fushigi Comedy only has two seasons translated and that Japan likes the franchise but which is the most popular Fushigi Comedy season in Japan?I'm wondering which would they pick for a Project R.E.D reboot
2026. I am forgotten...
>>23744102Wasn't it Petonton? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2UBimGbBPc
>>23744107Holy shit he's got his cock out
Toei fast to send out their renowned assassins to clean up anyone who would resist the end of super sentai
>>23744102If Shirakura replaces Gavan Infinity with one of the Magical Girls then he can stick their wands up his ass. Save that shit for PreCure.
>>23744102They would pick none of them because they're Ishinomori Pro co-productions and they're already doing Kamen Rider.Note how when mentioning possible ideas for Project RED they've never mentioned anything by Ishinomori. It's supposed to be a TOEI owned series.
>>23744102It looks like the reboot's already started.
>>23744103so what happened to him and the other guy from Kuon debut episode, I just assume the joke is they're not even dead
>>23744112>When DekaMaster attempts to put you on the straight and narrow so you finna bust a cap in that blue ass dog niggaJunya Ikeda has gone too far this time!
>>23744107It's the one with the highest ratings but the one most fondly remembered are Poitrine and HardgumiBut keep in mind that while Project R.E.D can have female protagonists unlike Sentai and Rider they won't do any show with a female protagonist unless they start earning 20 billion yen with Project R.E.D so that doing a decision like that doesn't kill them
>>23744119Nothing personal, Gokaisilver just needed Dekamaster's ranger key to... borrow a little money from senior citizens
>>23744112Kill yourself>>23744102The bully robot voiced by DIO kinda looks like Robomaru
>>23744117Universe TyrannoRanger never even "died", Kuon just brainwashed him for a bit then he fucked off.
>>23744102I really hope they don't reboot any IP in this franchise because it's likelier for them to get Kento Kento Shimoyama to write it because he's Urasawa's apprentice rather than getting Yoshio Urasawa to return to Fushigi Comedy even thought they got him back for the Robocon reboot recently, and I just cannot think of any producer that would be able to work properly with Shimoyama

>>23744194Oh yeah it absolutely is, just listened to it for the first time. Hoeru's actor looks DEAD on that stage.
>>23744207It's either him playing Hoeru and not wanting to be there or the actor needs to fucking lighten up.

>>23744247Thanks anon.Honestly, Fuyuno didn't look that despirited, I assume he really was trying to stay in character
>>23744018She's so beautiful
Man I hope Gavan is Kingohger 2.0.I get similar vibes.
>>23744376my jetmen!

>>23742925My sentaigga
>>23744395Ninnigga is his favorite
>>23744389What do you mean King-Ohger vibes? It's completely sci-fi, built around multi-dimensional space police. It's closer to it's namesake or Dekaranger at this point.
>>23744397NTA but probably how each Gavan has their own supporting characters. That's just it I guess.
>>23744434I guess I can see that way.
>>23744080hasbro will probably just kill the brand if that happens, they never any passion for it after that CEO passed away
>>23744079Just because people saw it coming doesn't make it any less painful. It doesn't help that the final show sucked, and it's not clear Gavan is doing any different that is going to solve the problem
>>23744441>the final show sucked,Just treat Gozyuger as the Black RX and you'll be fine.
>>23744376Think Talonflame would have been a better choice for red, never thought of Staraptor as a hawk. Unless of course that image was made before Talonflame existed.

>>23744448I stand corrected then
>>23744397>each character being in their own dimension each planned by a different producer is a similar set up the 5 kingdoms of King-Ohger>each Gavan gets their sidekick like how each King-Ohger got their own retainers>The head writer is hinting that the show will be fully serialized which King-Ohger was one of the few Sentai like thatI'd say it's pretty similar, Kuji also worked on King-Ohger at some point

I am looking forward to a toy line with no legacy items. A kid is already gonna struggle to catch 'em all, and then you're throw in non-canon ones for a show the kid has never watched? That's gonna turn away more people than it brings in. I wonder how Toei will calculate that when analyzing toy sales metrics.
You think Project R.E.D. will ever have a girl Red? Since this is ment to be a hyper experimental era, it would only make sense. It's weird that Power Rangers has first female red over Sentai.
>>23744501I don't think they'll ever have a true female red-colored lead, but we'll have plenty of female secondaries/tertiaries
>>23744501We will never ever ever get a Female MC in these type of shows because it would literally kill the toyline. PR only did it because it was the last show before the hiatus.
>>23744501>it would only make senseno it doesn't. I don't know why that's so hard to understand
>>23744505>cosmic furyI mean...>SPD Alpha Squad Red>Red Omega>that one Mighty Morphin' Red from the prequel comic>Red Squadron >All New RedSeems like the PR team tried to squeeze them in wherever they could, even if limited to mostly comics.
>>23744501It still has a roleplay toy in the forefront, so no girl lead.>>23744505Yeah, Cosmic Fury outright cancelled its toyline after the morpher and initial zords. So, that's just more reason to not do a female lead.
>>23744505Ah, that makes sense. Gokaiger did kill Sentai after all.
>>23744520That's right. Girls never buy roleplay toys, only dolls.
>>23744523I want that new clock changer the new season has
>>23743167Another excerpt from the interview with Shinichiro Shirakura, still lacking the full interview:On the major shift from Super Sentai to Gavan. This is a continuation—please read the previous content for full context.>>So, does that mean there's a possibility it won't even be a 'hero' anymore?>Shirakura: Our competitors are hero works like Kamen Rider or American comics, but to compete with those, someday I'd like to try thinking about entertainment that breaks free from the framework of what we call 'heroes.' Of course, it will still be live-action tokusatsu. But originally, our competitors weren't even other live-action heroes. In reality, what we have to fight against is 'anime.' The Japanese anime industry keeps producing globally popular entertainment like Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba or Chainsaw Man one after another. In truth, we have to jump into that arena and compete. We can't just say, "Since it's live-action, we're more limited than Anime". I want to tackle the challenge of leaping to a world-class level. The creators who are currently driving anime's popularity all had anime they were obsessed with as kids. The fact that former fans turn into creators and keep producing works like this is what pushes Japanese culture forward. Tokusatsu needs to do the same, and that's the determination I've put into Project R.E.D.
"You Did Well, Kuon" – Hoeru and Kuon's Resolve Toward Their Showdown — Interview with Karma, Who Plays Kuon (Toyono Hisamitsu) in Number One Sentai Gozyuger "Let's Get Married, Hoeru!" – An Unexpected Response>>Kuon was a hot topic every time he appeared. How has the fan response been?>Karma (playing Ring Hunter Garyudo / Kuon (Toyono Hisamitsu), hereafter Karma): Including official stuff, the toy and merch sellers started putting out tons of goods that make it seem like Kuon is promoting them to Hoeru (laughs). I'm grateful—the sales are apparently through the roof. Not just from Super Sentai and tokusatsu fans, but even people who don't usually watch tokusatsu are coming up to me like, "You must've said something wild, right?" It surprised me. I, too, spent three years watching tokusatsu shows when I was little. But I didn't keep watching it nonstop after that. I figure a lot of people have that kind of casual history with it. So I wanted to bring that perspective to my role. Of course I love Gozyuger, but I also wanted to capture the vibe of folks who don't normally watch Super Sentai. Seeing my over-the-top Kuon lines like "Let's get married, Hoeru!" resonate with them makes me really happy.>>Did you anticipate the huge reaction to "Let's get married, Hoeru!" when you first read the script?>Karma: I had no idea it'd blow up like that—I was shocked. Apparently, it was the first time in history they released the script on SNS. When I read it, I honestly didn't get it at first (laughs). No matter how many times I went over it, I was like, "Okay, it's gone completely off the rails! I'm in—let's go!" And sure enough, that line took off. I was like, "Whoa.">>Starting from Episode 38, "Judgment Ring Hunter", we get glimpses of Kuon's past and inner conflicts, ramping up the story.(1/?)
>>23744528>Karma: Around Episode 38 through year-end, I was like, "Time to hype it up with Kuon and steal the show!" I committed to going all out to build hype for the post-New Year arcs. The massive response after airing was a huge relief. I'm thankful for the casting, but I saw my job—across Super Sentai and Kamen Rider series—as drawing in people with no Sunday morning hero show ties. I wanted to play the character unbound by common sense. When Episode 38 finally dove deep into Kuon after all that wild stuff, the reaction was huge. It's thrilling when non-Super Sentai fans say, "I'm watching 'cause you're in it". That's exactly what I want—and from there, I hope they discover all the amazing other cast members.I'm Glad Mio Is My Little Brother>>In Episode 43, "Final Battle: Kuon! A Gift from the Angel," Hoeru gets a new white-mantle form. He finally settles things with Hoeru.>Karma: Hoeru was insanely strong from the start, with no obvious power-ups. But as Hoeru and the team grew in strength and humanity, Hoeru stayed this immovable villain wall. Getting a boost to say, "Hoeru's still got it! I'm the ultimate obstacle!"—reading that script got me pumped. I felt like this is why I took on Kuon. I poured everything into performing as Kuon up to this point, just for this episode.>>What did you keep in mind while acting opposite Fuyuno-san (Hoeru's actor)?>Karma: I've always thought, "I'm glad Mio is my little bro". At this point, he really feels like my brother—we even hang out at each other's places. On the Episode 43 set, we were together as usual, but there was this vibe like, "Today, we show the culmination of what we've built over the year, just us two". We didn't overdo it on set or keep distance—we just ate catering side-by-side like always. I kept mulling over Kuon and Hoeru's relationship in my head while acting. I even went back to when Mio and I first met.(2/?)
>>23744529>>What growth did you see in Fuyuno-san over the year, from your perspective?>Karma: Probably as a person, first off. He's super mature, with this broad, bird's-eye view. But leading the group—being the one to actively pull everyone along, not just observe—was probably new territory for him at the start. He's not the "Alright, let's charge!" type who rallies with words. Over the year, he's been rock-solid, unwavering. That captain-level reliability shines through. He's consistent, no two faces about him—that human strength just keeps growing every time we meet. I think, "He's so dependable." Everyone else feels it too.>>And from the end of Episode 43 onward, Kuon becomes "Hoeru Calibur 50.">Karma: Bittersweet, honestly. The sudden heel-turn threw me during the first dub session—which tone, volume? No more gravelly voice, so it was tricky.>>Did you talk with Director Tazaki about performing the final arc?>Karma: He gave me a lot of freedom. I'd tweak phrasing or say, "I wanna move like this", and after reading the script, he'd greenlight it. I felt totally free to stretch out. Kuon might not have turned out as my Kuon without the script alone. Director Tazaki approved amplifying my vision, making Kuon possible. I'm truly grateful.>>Looking back on a year with Kuon?>>Karma: I really gave it my all. Kuon was building toward Episodes 42 and 43—bottomless, inscrutable, hard to analyze. Over the year, I feel like I nailed it. Sure, there were worries, but I'm relieved it worked out.You Did Well, Kuon. Sorry, Kuon.>>One word from you to Kuon after a year of playing him?>Karma: Tough one, but "You did well, Kuon". Also, "Sorry, Kuon." There's so much I'd say. I went in with resolve. As I mentioned, I knew I'd draw hate from the start, but as an actor, you want twists, love, support. I had to set that aside, knowing payoff was a year away. So yeah, "Sorry, kuon". (3/?)
>>23744530>>Finally, highlights for Gozyuger's climax from you?>Karma: Sword time! Kuon's all about the sword everywhere—"Hi, it's Sword!" (laughs). But the remaining episodes aren't just Ring Battle! Kuon's got more in store—stay tuned. Focus on how Gozyuger wraps up. From here, just enjoy it purely. So many threads laid and resolved; the rest is all-in—hope you dive in!"They Said They Wanted to See Marupi 2.0" – Bouquet's Acting and Cast Love: Interview with Marupi, Who Plays Bouquet in Number One Sentai GozyugerBridan Cast: Respectable Actor Seniors>>To tie into "Bouquet of Compassion", could you share what you love about the cast? Starting with Bridan, how was it co-starring with Daisuke Sambongi (Fire Candle) for a full year?>Marupi (as Bouquet, hereafter Marupi): Bon-san's (Sambongi's) charm is his steady vibe on set—no ups and downs. He's always at peak energy, you know? I don't know if he does it on purpose, but he always puts the "Daisuke Sambongi" vibe front and center. He's bright whenever, delivering the Sambongi everyone knows. That sets the tone for the whole set, and having one upbeat person pulls everyone along, which helped me a ton as a junior. This is a complaint, but he was late on production wrapup day!>>On production wrapup day of all days...!?>Marupi: Shocking, right? (laughs) He never is, but only on production wrapup day? He showed up yelling, "Sorry!! I overslept the train!" Most people would blame a delay or something, but owning up to "oversleeping" like that? It's so quintessentially lovable Fire Candle. I was jealous, too. Being late's not great, but he wasn't overthinking "it's the finale" or "production wrapup"—just showed up as usual Sambongi till the end. Enviable, but I also thought, "Don't be like that; make him an anti-example" (laughs). Such an adorable senior.(4/?)
>>23744531>>How about Karma (Kuon) from the same Bridan team?>Marupi: I didn't have tons of scenes acting directly with Karma-san, and Kuon himself is like Tono Hoeru—a lone wolf type. But whenever we did scenes together, it was super smooth. The other two in Bridan are my acting seniors, so it's expected, but acting with Karma-san made it even easier and more natural to embody Bouquet. That spice elevates the performance, so I have huge respect for him as an actor. He's genuinely cool as a person—inside and out. I've drawn a lot of inspiration from Karma-san and Sambongi-san. There are so many "I wanna be that kind of adult, that kind of actor" moments, so from the start, I wanted to absorb their best qualities over this year and end it strong. Someday, I hope to become an actor others think that about too.Gozyuger Cast Who Resemble Their Characters>>You're enemies in the show, but tell us about the Gozyuger cast's appeal too. How about leader Tono Hoeru's actor, Mio Fuyuno?>Marupi: Mio's adorable. At first, I thought he was shy, but he's the type that's hard to read at a glance—which is just like Tono Hoeru. Everyone's like that, really; you can tell they were cast from auditions. They're all intense, fully embodying their characters. So Tono Hoeru's "tough to approach at first, but endearing and lovable once you get to know him" vibe fits Mio perfectly. He's easy to tease, and even when I do, he laughs it off and plays along. I'm glad our leader is Mio.(5/?)
>>23744532>>Your scenes with Hideharu Suzuki (Hyakuya Rikuo) got massive reactions.>Marupi: I think we created so many scenes because it was Hide (Suzuki). We avoided calling it a "love scene" thanks to him. My character isn't human, so I didn't want to shoehorn human-world terms. The director says "love scene" to sum it up simply, but we both knew it wasn't *that*—it was a shared understanding, so we leaned into the platonic feel to deliver that. Fans react with "I want them to be a couple!" or "No, don't pair them!" different takes depending on the viewer. If our acting allows that, it's a perfect 10 for me. Hide's style made that possible, so I'm purely glad we worked together.>>Many empathized with it as an "idol-fan" dynamic rather than romance.>Marupi: It's tricky, but if someone says "idol-fan can't be a love scene", I'd say that's off too. I didn't want OK/NG debates on "love scenes" at all. The script framed it as "good," in my read. Getting pure "I love Rikuo-Bouquet coupling!" feedback proves it—perfect score!>>Your produce-off with Masakazu Kanda (Ryugi) and Rikuo was memorable too.>Marupi: Kan-chan (Kanda) is all "Iyasa~!" (laughs) Talking to him, that's all he says! But only Kanda-san could pull off Ryugi. People might say "He nailed that character," but Kanda-san's take feels free yet constrained—just like Bouquet. Playing thick characters showed me it's not a simple world. Kanda-san acts freely within limits. We didn't overlap much, though. Episode 47's produce battle was our first real team-up, and it was pure fun. Wish we'd had chances earlier.(6/?)
>>23744533>>Jin Matsumoto's Kinjiro Takehara was tough, but what was it like watching up close?>Marupi: Jin (Matsumoto) and Kaiki Kimura have similar acting styles—thinkers who prep a lot. It's a double-edged sword. Around Episodes 27-28 (Bouquet's amnesia arc), the director told me, "Matsumoto-kun, Kimura-kun, and Marupi prep alike—lead with that". I started observing after. I get their struggles, so seeing Jin make such a hard role compelling for a year? Super cool. It pushed me not to fall behind. Excited for his future. We only teamed up in Gozyuger Supplementary Plan: Number One Confessional, not main story much—unlike others. Kinda bummed; hope it happens someday.>>Your amnesia arc scenes with Kaiki Kimura (Masahiro Kumade) were a hot topic.>Marupi: "Kumade-Bouquet" fans rival "Rikuo-Bouquet"—happy accident! With Kaiki, that arc had tons of shared acting, and he's so straightforward, no facade. Kimura's Masahiro Kumade and Fuyuno's Tono Hoeru are like two sides of a coin—spot on. Similar yet yin-yang, neither good/bad. Kaiki has unique charms—innate talent *plus* prep. I lack the raw talent, so I'm jealous, but glad he's not a woman (laughs)—she'd be real competition. Just a fun guy overall; want the world to see more. If Gozyuger continues, I'll spread Kaiki's awesomeness.(7/?)
>>23744535Bouquet's Acting Emphasizes Gaps and Emotional Control>>Your late-series Bouquet acting got huge buzz.>Marupi: Episodes 40-42 were all Rikuo-Bouquet, and I poured my soul into them. Great script and arc for Bouquet-chan, but my acting could ruin it—not delivering 100%. The pressure was immense. I was like "Die trying". My screaming scenes wrecked my throat after, but "worth it". Fans saying "Bouquet's acting is amazing" led to "Marupi's acting rocks!"—wild. I think actors don't need praise if the character shines—that's Number One. But getting "Marupi's amazing!" on top? Mind-blowing. It put "actress Marupi" on the map, so I went all-out, but the hype shocked me. Boosted my confidence—eager for more roles now.>>Your "anger" scenes especially blew up.>Marupi: Not just anger—gaps are key to the story. We get scripts with stage directions like "this emotion," so we grasp it easily. Viewers only have footage/subtitles, so we amp gaps more than we think needed. Overdo it, though, and it's pointless for live-action. I balance: output 130% internally, but cap at 100% output. Like Bouquet's "Kyaa!" for Rikuo—real fans might garble words meeting their idol, but for the show, we control it. Gozyuger taught me "full throttle isn't always best". For anger, 130% inside, controlled outside. When "Destruction Bouquet" hit, fans said "Did her makeup change?"—but it didn't. Proud; my acting sold the shift.(8/?)
>>23744536Rikuo Relationship Culmination: Embodying Compassionate Bouquet>>Episode 47 showed Bouquet reclaiming "love"—the produce battle and cheering Rikuo felt like their bond's peak.>Marupi: Yeah, and Bouquet got every "fan-wish" arc. Losing someone dear is huge; the show just shows "Ribbon-chan died", highlighting that. Grateful revisiting it now. During Episode 47, from Bouquet-fan view, it was thrilling delivering true feelings to Rikuo. She always drew lines (idol-fan, even building altars), but Rikuo reached out, she grabbed it—crossing lines beyond "human" or "idol." Pure bond, letting her cheer full-force. And he responded! Rikuo always fled ("Can't do it alone"), but her support got his final step. Crucial for him, embodying "Compassionate Bouquet". So glad I got that episode.>>Pre-broadcast, you said you wanted to "break your shell" over the year—how was it really?>Marupi: I wanted to, but it's others' judgment. After director Ryuta Tazaki cast me, he said, "You're still playing Marupi—show us Marupi 2.0." It hit hard. Not acting myself, but was I at 100% charm? No way. Somehow, it happened naturally. Worried how others saw it, but post-production wrapup, Tazaki said, "I saw it" and "Keep acting, Marupi". Straight-up. Wanna be a true "Tazaki's child".>>Finally, one word from you to Bouquet after a year.>Marupi: To Compassionate Bouquet: I quietly watched you strive so hard. Your compassion helped so many—including you. Stay happy forever, keep that top Rick-Onist throne, fight on. Living this year with you made me so happy.(9/?)
>>23744539"Am I Becoming the Fire Candle Everyone Envisioned?" The Passion for Acting That Burns On—Interview with Daisuke Sambongi, Fire Candle in No.1 Sentai GozyugerHyping Up Broadcasts with Live Commentary and Short Preview Videos>>As your approach to the work, you spent the year posting live broadcast commentary and short next-episode preview videos on SNS to entertain fans. How did the response feel?>Daisuke Sambongi (hereafter Sambongi): I'm not great with SNS to begin with, but over this long year, I wanted to hype up the show in my own way, so I thought, "What can I do? Maybe live commentary in real time?" and "Next-episode previews would be fun". Once I decided on that from the start and kept at it, fans watching live with me would say things like "I was thinking the same!" or "I enjoy the commentary itself". People who were feeling down got cheered up by my consistent posts and said "Thank you". It felt amazing to realize that what I did to pump things up ended up boosting everyone's motivation to watch Gozyuger and giving them energy.>>You've mainly worked in theater up to now, but how was challenging yourself with a year-long live-action TV role?>Sambongi: Spending a full year deeply engaging with my character felt incredibly fulfilling. It was all new to me, so I hoped to grow bit by bit myself. I was thrilled to see both the actors and characters become more vivid as the story progressed. We started filming with zero info on when or how Fire Candle was created, or his purpose—basically just the official site character blurb. I thought, "Gotta fill this in myself... but what if it's contradicted later?" Sure enough, mid-to-late series, there were "Gweh?!" moments (laughs).(10/?)
>>23744541My first impression when I got the role: "A non-human entity that's the most human—or becomes human-like—but can never truly become human". I loved that, so I made it my behind-the-scenes theme for building Fire Candle. For expression, Episode 1 was rough since I wasn't used to screen acting, so I kept it simple: joy, anger, sorrow, fun as clear-cut emotions. Episode 9 gave some inner depth, so after that, I layered in more human-like nuances, adding colors to his emotions. Meeting Hoeru and the Gozyugers helped, which probably deepened bonds with Bridan colleagues too. The biggest shift? Fire Candle learning it's better to hide emotions sometimes. Around Episode 40? (It got cut from the final edit, sadly—laughs). Episodes 42-43 shook up Bridan dynamics a lot. From then on, I aimed for even more human-like thinking and expressions.Engagement with Universe Warrior Shinken Red>>Episodes 20-21 had you engage as Universe Warrior Shinken Red, hinting at changes to come.>Sambongi: I'm truly grateful for the Shinken Red engagement—it made me so happy. But I wanted to emphasize it was a fake. Ties into that behind-the-scenes theme: wanting to be real but unable to, and that's okay. So lines like "I am the true Shinken Red!" were meant to get tsukkomi'd like "No you're not!" He means it in this world line, though. I do believe heroes should be heroes, so I get why some fans felt off about it. In the Theater G Rosso show, when the Gozyugers reclaimed the Sentai Ring and re-engaged it, that thrilled me for real. If I ever get to engage as a hero someday, I'd love to borrow that ring power again.(11/?)
>>23744544>>There were plenty of action scenes too.>Sambongi: First time properly doing bojutsu (staff fighting). Before cranking in, hearing I'd fight with a staff, I bought one at a home center and practiced spinning it at home. Over the year, during downtime, I'd ask the action team, "How do you do this?" Pros like Yasuhiro Takeuchi and Shige (Shigeki Ito) taught me. With experts nearby, I figured I'd just ask what I didn't get online. They took me under their wing—"Nice! Let's use that in the main show!"—and it made it into action scenes.Fire Candle's Rage in Episode 43: "Final Battle Kuon! Gift from an Angel">Sambongi: It was TegaJune's family story. Fire Candle ends up alone, right? I see Bridan as family-like. That script hit me with kid-like sadness from abandonment, childish tantrums—like "He was made this way, but he's still just a child clinging to mom". But he digs in on what's important to him—not rebellion, but pride. Unyielding for Fire Candle. Like a kid treasuring an acorn no one else cares about. Episode 43 made clear what mattered most to him.Fire Candle's Kaijin Form Transformation>>Then in Episode 47, "Resolve for World Reform! In the Winds of Calamity", Fire Candle responds to the Calamity aura and transforms into kaijin form.>Sambongi: When I first heard, I figured I'd get defeated and explode at the end—full resolve, so I built my performance that way. Shoji Takada, who played the kaijin form, acted with such heat and care—super grateful. Like with Shinken Red, I wanted those scenes for myself (acting envy!), but his work was stellar, so I had to match it in post-recording. Takada even asked, "How you gonna play it?" I'd say, "Sorry, but I wanna do this here", and we'd collaborate a lot.(12/?)
>>23744545>>What do you focus on when reading scripts? Some actors read the whole story, others just their lines.>Sambongi: I always read everything first. How does the story feel from the audience's view? Then I dive in. Gozyuger split into first and second halves for me. In any story, clarify your role first and make it shine. For Fire Candle in Gozyuger, what role overall, and how to show him in this scene? I'd think, "If I did it, it'd be like this"—finding play spots. Early on, that was it. Once settled in, I stopped overplanning; Fire Candle's moves came instinctively. Later, I'd predict endings: "Probably this," prepping from prior eps. But Gozyuger scripts often went "Eh?! That direction?!" (laughs). Lots of adjustments via post-recording or reaction shots where there were no lines. Endgame, Fire Candle's mentally wrecked with shock scenes, so I'd sink deep into those feelings.>>Fire Candle had distinctive inflection from the start.>Sambongi: Enemy execs often act alongside voice-acted characters, and Gozyugers are naturalistic, so I bridged with bigger, theater-style, bold-flavored acting. From Episode 46, that toned down. Better to ride character with feeling, not ups/downs. Just pure focus—simple, but hoping it lands.Business as Usual for Sambongi on the Final Shoot Day>>Any wrap party memories? Last interview with Bouquet's Marupi said you were late on wrap day.>Sambongi: Yeah, barely made it (laughs). Overslept my train... went one station too far, came back. Classic me, a bit late on the last day. Wrap had a rare Bridan convo scene. With Marupi, it's like puzzle-solving—no consults, just "Yeah, it's like this, right?" Feels like a year's acting payoff. Great scene, I think.(13/?)
>>23744546>>One word for the staff who supported you all year?>Sambongi: Costume and makeup especially—I wrecked stuff doing live action. Makeup melted in sweat, costumes tore; the one coat we had survived thanks to their repairs and care. I rarely hit the green room or bus—always watching shoots, chatting directors. Learned staff roles, what they prioritize, and thought, "If that's key, how can I reflect it in acting?" They treated me so well. Even after a year, pre-shoot nights I'd buzz like a kid before a field trip—couldn't sleep (laughs). A dreamlike, joyful year.Am I Becoming the Fire Candle Everyone Envisioned?>>Rival Gozyu Wolf/Tono Hoeru actor Mio Fuyuno—what growth did you see in him year?>Sambongi: He's always been great at receiving, but early on, probably puzzled how to deliver it. I poked him in Episode 9; he bit back—honest responder. Not many shared scenes, but late-game location shoots together showed huge skill jumps. Honestly envy-inducing. Episode 49, we clashed full-force, no holding back. Pass, return—pure fun. Seeing Mio and the young ones level up so charmingly made me think, "What'd I grow in this year?" Gotta do better acting. Staff handling improved, though (laughs).>>At launch interviews, the producer told you "Raise this character". A year later, how do you feel?>Sambongi: Pretty proud of raising him well (laughs). Emotions got more human, especially "hiding" them. Babies express rawest; growing means learning restraint. Director Tazaki said it: "The cup of emotions grows, less spilling". Felt that in Fire Candle's arc. That overflow is the good stuff.(14/15)
>>23744550>>Highlights of Episode 49?>Sambongi: Mio's expressions—top-tier. Made me tear up just watching. A year deep in Gozyuger, same characters—he nailed it. Giving him that trigger energy, living as Fire Candle in that moment? Genius move (laughs). Seriously, check Hoeru's face. I played Fire Candle as an insurmountable rival wall. Protagonist Tono Hoeru overcoming it? Gozyuger's peak. Don't miss it!>>Finally, one word from you to Fire Candle after a year.>Sambongi: Fire Candle's so captivating, but if I have words for him: "Did I, as your performer, properly catch up to the Fire Candle you wanted to be?" "Am I the Fire Candle everyone envisioned? Did I surpass it?" Always reflected, no regrets—gave it all. Stayed laser-focused on set. In this love-filled Gozyuger world, may the true wish Fire Candle found over a year come true.(15/15)Will translate the interviews with 5 Gozyugerz later

>>23744522>>23744523Why are you moving the goalpost so much? We've have examples of female ranger toys selling poorly compared to male rangers over the span of multiple decades. Precure is also a horrible example and shows you don't know what you're talking about
>>23744565Nothing counts to you. I know that already.
>>23744571Yup, life will never change from the 80s and Japanese fans never get mad when Toei goes back to having a season with only one woman, if any.
>>23744523I thought the makeup line was the highest selling part of Precure.
>>23744574>Japanese fans never get mad when Toei goes back to having a season with only one woman,They actually don't. There are a lot more teams with 1 female ranger than 2.
>>23744501Toei are more likely to cast Jeebh's actor as Poitrine in the Project RED reboot than an actual woman.
>>23744577Whether it's done or not is unrelated to if people complain about it being done.
sex with Kohaku
>>23744584>>23744574>>23744523>>23744522
>>23744586It'd be neat to have a woman Red, and the only counter people have is "we're too scared of change to try it."
Will translate the other Gozyuger interviews some hours later, but might as well translate the Tomioka interview about Gavan Infinity since is more relevant, >>23742378 thank you very much anon for posting it, please correct me if I misheard anything:>When it comes to Gavan, you can't skip the classic trio: Laser Blade, Makai Space, and Jouchaku, right? So, of course, we're borrowing those elements—we are using them, the terms themselves, that is. But the way we show them, build them, everything is totally different.>For kids encountering Gavan from now on, it'll feel super fresh. I'm on the production side now, so it's kinda bold for me to say this, but I feel like people from my generation are reacting the most. >Still, there'll be this surprise like, "Whoa, this generation's showing it like *this*?"Viewers will probably notice the differentiation from the Sentai series too. It's less about trying new things and more about finally doing what we've always wanted to try. So, when they approached me, it's like new things start moving, and I get to be the vanguard captain in that—it's this exciting thrill. Like, "Oh, that sounds fun!">Then it's like, "I wanna do this, I wanna do that", and right now, I'm exchanging ideas a ton with the other writers, directors, everyone involved—that's the current situation.(1/3)
>>23744590>In each universe, there's only one Gavan—that's an absolute title, right? Only one person can claim to be Gavan. With him around, the universe is protected, or evil can be crushed—it's that kind of incredible existence. But here's the key: there's only one Gavan in the universe, yet there are *tons* of universes. Infinity-san's universe is one he's protecting, Bushido-san's is in another he's guarding, and there's a Luminous-guarded universe too. Even in those universes, there's just one Gavan, plus, why only one? Well, there's this super long backstory explanation for that and eventually, we'll reveal the processes those Gavan-namers went through to become Gavan.>Kuji-san's head is full of even *bigger* ideas, so I'm like, "I'll follow you to the end!". This time, there was this idea to make it more of a detective drama, itcomes from me just loving that stuff, but with solid maneuvering elements, things that weren't in the old works. Rather, we're focusing on bringing out the fun unique to Infinity. Now, "detective drama" as a genre isn't as overflowing as it used to be, so younger folks might not get it right away. The era of cop action dramas I grew up with was way back in the Seibu Keisatsu era or whatever, but back then, they were insanely cool.>Adults and kids alike watched them, that's what I want to do. Stories are universal in the end. Cops getting fired up about a case and charging in— that doesn't change.>I want to show that to kids. Nowadays, they might say it lacks realism, and yeah, dramas with guns exploding or whatever declined because of that. There are all sorts of compliance issues with the times, which is unavoidable, ut since this is a hero genre category, I thought we could pull it off.(2/3)
>>23744592>That detective drama format I mentioned— If you think of it as multiple people, each with their own protagonist vibe, the scripting method isn't actually that different. You empathize with the criminal on this side, but on the hero side too, for the same case, "No, that guy's gotta get beaten down", VS. "Forgive him" VS. "I can't forgive that"—>It shows heroes have all kinds of mindsets. Some hate the culprit, some offer forgiveness— that doesn't feel off to me at all. They're cops on the same axis, same ground, Each with their own perspectives—it's a drama about that.>So it's heroes, but I'm drawing a cop drama through my lens. I want to show Reiwa-era kids a shiny, cool, amazing, powerful Gavan hero. Thank you very much.(3/3)
>>23744588The counter is the roleplay toys. PreCure is a really bad example because that has a completely different target audience.

>>23744590>>23744592>>23744593I don't see anywhere saying it's serialized so I guess >>23742291 is indeed bullshit, everything Tomioka described implies that this is aiming to make a show like Dekaranger
>>23744594I see now. You have a degradation fetish. I'm not gonna indulge your kink anymore.
>>23744590>>23744592>>23744593Thanks for these, I find it interesting where he compared it with old cop drama.>>23744601Afaik the episodic statement is supposedly from presscon. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pnsz4WblzVc(Around 3:20 - 5:16)
>>23744608Presscon link is non-region locked btw
>>23744571Anon that's not even a current chart. Wonderful did great and Kimi to Idol did even better, now the most successful season since Hugtto.
>>23744588Anon why do you think we occasionally get girl blues over the years. They were testing the waters with the second most popular color to see if it would do well only to realize they just don't sell as much.
Haven't been in the thread for a few hours but why are we having a female red discussion, now of all times?Yeah Project R.E.D probably can have female protagonists unlike Kamen Rider and Super Sentai where it'd mandated, but doing a female protagonist right now is too risky of a move to do, ultimately they won't even consider doing a female protagonist for Project R.E.D until it at least starts earning 20 billion yen consistently like Rider where doing such an experiment would give a heavy hit in the studio, but even then we're just speculating, for all we know Project R.E.D is also mandated to have male protagonists since Shirakura avoided commenting if gender will be a variable now
>>23744617We're supposed to be entering a wild new experimental era. I suggested a women being the Red one as an experiment. I'd be up for talking about other big swings they could take. What is going to be The Thing that makes P. R.E.D. different from Sentai and Rider and PreCure and so on?(Do we have a better shortened name BTW? I don't wanna talk about the new hit show PRED.)
>>23744617it's just woke newfags shitposting. These people don't understand that the nips are just following where the money is. I don't see Ultraman having a long line of female ultras either, let alone protags (unless you count ace for some reason)
>>23744623Anon just say Project RED, it's not hard to type.
>>23744588>>23744605You do know that you look like a shitposter, right? Anons are giving you actual evidence as a counter and you’re just posting random images.
>>23744626>Using woke unironically
>>23744584>>23744574>>23744573>>23744522>>23744574>>23744605This is bait
>>23744623Just call it RED I guess like the generalThey stated multiple times what differentiates Project R.E.D from the other IPs, it's all in a shared worldview and it's aimed towards elementary schoolers rather than pre-schoolers, though pre-schoolers can still watch itDoing a female protagonist is just too big of a financial risk for these kinds of shows unless they're raking it in allowing them to take the risk once a whileEssentially the audience for these shows in japan doesn't care for female protagonists in general, female protagonists are detriment to the roleplay aspect since half the audience are little boys and the only people who want this are a few producers and writers and Toei from a creative aspect, but even they admitted that they failed at doing female heroes in Kamen Rider
>>23744628Stop shitposting and go to sleep
>>23744626>wokeNice opinion, did Epstein give it to you?
>>23744626
>>23744665I remember Grigio was pretty popular with otaku
>>23744665>a long line of female ultras either, let alone protags>post the only modern female ultra, out of like 5 female ultras>not a protagYou're proving his point anon, I don't get why you want argue this much about it if you don't have any actual point, like really what's so hard to understand about the roleplays angle?
Can someone make a Sentai version of this?
>>23744672I have said I don't have a point beyond "it'd be neat." It's not my fault you aren't listening to the words I'm saying. Girls like role-playing. Boys don't actually vomit at the sight of girls, like TV would have you believe, because you are just accepting the tropes as facts of life. An experimental era means nothing if there will be no changes to the sentai status quo. Lots of boys like "girl" shows and lots of girls like "boys" shows. There have been girl shonen protagonists for decades now.If you want to change the subject, please do. Look inside yourself. Ask what you'd want to see. Ask what would be impossible under the Sentai Brand, and imagine it anyway. Come and break rules and draw outside the lines with me. There is no point in an experimental era without experimentation.
https://x.com/hi_erica_/status/2020842924557426877>Thank you so much for the moving and wonderful experience!>See you again
>>23744689Just to humor you, assuming they made a girl red, what do you expect will change? What can it change? How does it solve any of Sentai's problems without adding to it?Experimenting doesn't mean you throw yourself off a cliff in order to find the cure for cancer, you have to be smart about it and experiment with things that might or not might work, not something that is sure to fail.
why does liveman have two reds and why did black change his animal to grasshopper
>>23744397Serialized story
>>23744719>what would change?Nothing, I hope. Take a typical Red. Find & Replace all the pronouns in the script from he to she. Ship it.>what can it change?More sales, probably.>How does it solve any of Sentai's problems without adding to it?Things have been stagnant, a radically different protag might open the writers up to new ideas. It might also not work. That'd be fine too. Let's find out together!>Just to humor youWhat would humor me is if you answered my question. You've explained why you dislike my idea. That's fine. I understand your trepidation. Now it's your turn to pitch something. I'm putting a magic wand in your hand. When you tap your screen the perfect season will appear before you. I want you to close your eyes, tap that wand, and open. Tell me what you see. It can be hard to be earnest, especially on the internet, but I think you have real potential inside you. We all do!
https://x.com/i/status/2020448280337899882So Sekimoto always dreamed of being Akarenger, and got his wish at the very end of the franchise (for now, at least). That's surprising.
>>23744600HARD
>>23744732I'll tap it on bandai so they would make better toys, that's it
>>23744758Changing the toys could be interesting! What do you think Bandai would do differently? Different materials? Designs more future proofed so we don't need a new memorial edition every couple of years?
>>23744541I loved his episode previews lolThe drawings were so cute.
The fuck is going on
>>23744782People have been conditioned to fear change and earnestness.
>>23744546>>23744539>>23744528These interviews made me like Bridan even more, their actors are just so coolAlso I agree with Bouquet it's a shame that some of the characters didn't get that many interactions together because of Akiko's focus problemHope all 3 get a really successful career, same with the Gozyugers sans Maya who's probably going to quit acting, and I'm fine with that since her acting was easily the worst of the team and she said that she wasn't sure if she'll pursue an acting career after the show, she's young so hopefully she can find something that gives her purpose
>still no license announcementHopefully it's just hammering out the details after the Zeztz fiasco. I can't imagine going to all the trouble of ending Sentai and starting a new show to dodge regional restrictions just for no one to want it.
>>23744689> I have said I don't have a point beyond "it'd be neatBut you do have a point >Girls like role-playing. Boys don't actually vomit at the sight of girls, like TV would have you believe. Is English your second language? You do know that is a point, right? > An experimental era means nothing if there will be no changes to the sentai status quo. A female red ranger is barely changing the status quo. What would be more interesting is a team that’s one color, a team that’s all robots, etc> Ask what would be impossible under the Sentai BrandThe brand is on hiatus so there’s nothing to discuss. Any “experiment” would end up underperforming so it’s just boring and kinda forced discussion. >>23744732> Things have been stagnantIt’s been the complete opposite of that. Kyuranger to Gozyuger is the most experimental this franchise has been in a while now with Kiramager being the most “normal” sentai. > a radically different protag might open the writers up to new ideaswriting kneels to toy sales. We’d end up in a situation where the female red is the face of the show but is irrelevant in the toyline and the story. > Let's find out together!Why are you trying to force this shit so much? Are you bored or something? We all know what’s gonna happen so this discussion is just pointless >>23744772> Designs more future proofedYou can’t future proof them to that extent.
It didn't really hit me until today when I was unpacking things and found this guy. Magiranger was my first Sentai and I thought Hikaru was the coolest motherfucker ever. Man, twenty years have really come and gone so fast. I've enjoyed shitposting about Japanese kid's shows with you faggots.I'll be around for Gavan Infinity and I still have some old Sentai to watch but it's a sad day for sure.
>>23744865Well, why don't you tell me what you do mean with the toy line? That way you don't need to get mad at me for guessing what's in your head wrong.
>>23744849Their main focus is Brazil instead of North America and Europe anyways. Yes, they're that retarded.
>>23744865>Kyuranger to Gozyuger is the most experimental this franchise has been in a whileRyusoulger was safer than Kiramager and in spite of their extremely experimental setups the plot structure for Kyuranger and LuPat were pretty safe, but yeah aside from nostalgiawankery everything else during this period was really experimental >>23744920>>23744732Anon I don't know why you have to type in an annoyingly retarded manner, but >more sales probablyThe core audience for Rider and Sentai are male preschoolers who want to pretend to be heroes, Toei also wants girls to role play which is why we have female heroes but they can't ever be the focus without being a financial risk, it's why Pink rangers are usually shafted compared to the rest of the team, why most female Kamen Rider toys have to be promoted with a male Rider or be Premium Bandai since they only appeal to otaku not kids, it's why the experiment Gotchard did of having a female secondary Rider was considered a failure by them even though Gotchard had good sales, because her toys didn't sell well it was the card packs and later the main belt due to the protagonist's final form toy. And Kamen Rider can afford doing experiments like that because Kamen Rider is financially successful, Super Sentai on the other hand wasn't and Project RED is just starting so they can't take such a big risk. I also don't know why you keep asking what Sentai can't do when the producers have already outlined the differences Project RED has from Sentai and Rider.The main change Project RED toys need and by extension what Sentai needed, is to make the mecha poseable like the other more financially successful modern mecha toys for kids, when Donbrothers did it the franchise received its first sales boost in a long while and many kids wanted such a change in order to actually replicate the poses of the show. The other change is making mecha ingeractability with the changers the norm, they don't do it consistently enough.
>>23744897I'm sad that Magiranger wasn't able to get an anniversary movie, at least the cast is well
>>23744943There were go! A real answer and I totally agree! Being able to do more action poses is super important.
>>23744849It has nothing to do with regional restriction. Shirakura is an out of touch boomer who thinks Gavan is hot shit and that Pred will appeal to Gen Alpha.
>Project RED is actually a 5 year psyop>Returning interest in Super Sentai from collectors>Boiling Point at the 55th Anniversary>a new Sentai to capitalize on 55th Anniversary of the Franchise>It sells insane numbers because of the wait since Gozyuger and Legend Toys>After that, they repeat the process.I can see through the veil Shirakura.
>>23744958Did you completely misread the anon's post? He never implied that's the reason Sentai died he's just saying that now that it doesn't have the restrictions they can bypass this, plus it's really weird they haven't talked about the license yet despite having an english subbed trailerDo you really let Shirakura live rent free in your head that you have to bring him up every time?
>>23744954Nobody brought it up to you before in your reply chain because it's common knowledge at this point and it was posted already in this thread and the last one
>>23744849That's the punchline though
>>23744970Well, do you have any ideas not obvious? Besides what's safe and makes sense. What's your weird idea?
>>23744980Trying to give alt forms to rangers, one of the reasons why Rider toys sell better than Sentai is because people usually pick their favorites and decide to buy all the toys attached to a specific character, so for example with Gozyuger the mecha sold really well but the weapons didn't, this is because people would just buy the weapon based on their favorite ranger but not the restGiving alternate powers to rangers that can also interact with the mecha could help boost sales, I'm assuming this solely on the fact that Kyoryuger is the best selling Sentai of all time, I know Ryusoulger tried to do this again yet failed in sales but I always assumed it was because how much of a shameless rip-off it was of Kyoryuger, Abaranger and GingamanOtherwise Project R.E.D could also take advantage that the seasons share a worldview to try to make retro-compatible toys between certain seasons like Donbrothers did, only this time not necessarily for the show of the year prior, they could use this as an excuse to re-release old toys and that way not every toy has to be batteries which is a considerably more limited trinket than the gears of Zenkaiger/Donbrothers
>>23744989Please anon. Stop responding to him.
>>23744954>>23744920>>23744980Why are you trying so hard to force discussion?
>>23744954>>23744980>Being able to do more action poses is super important.We had that and it flopped. Move onto a different topic.
>>23744990Trying to think of what could they potentially do with the toys in the future is an interesting conversation thoughNow, the whole retarded debacle about female heroes which he kept trying to force despite claiming he didn't have a point and would continuously post random images as if somehow proved anything, all the while typing in a purposefully annoying way, isn'tBasically I just want to know if they ever gave any official statement as to why Ryusoulger toys failed, I always assumed it was due to being unoringal, lack of poseability, the damage every show since Ninninger had done to the brand and the sword not being the changer but I don't actually knowUnrelated but I'm kind of mad that Ryusoulger's producer of all people is Toei's president now despite never making anything of note
>>23745002>Ryusoulger's producer of all people is Toei's president now despite never making anything of noteThat's the power of nepotism, the guy was Hikasa's apprentice so when he stepped down as president he decided to appoint hinBut at the same time I've noticed that people don't like to be presidents at Toei for some reason, Shirakura stepped down because he didn't like being one and there were rumors Tsukada rejected the position too
>>23745002Ryusoulger was following a particular bad year with LupinrangervsPatranger. It's the same reason Kiramager and Zenkaiger all bombed afterwards. They only stabilized things with Donbrothers. But those years were a blood bath where their earnings were essentially more than halved from Kyuranger's.
I hope toei gets Sakamoto for the movieA space sheriff movie without Sakamoto just feels wrong
>>23745008Maruyama is also a graduate of the University of Tokyo like Shirakura and Hikasa. It's basically Japanese Harvard where the school you graduate from makes a difference .In contrast Takatera and Tsukada graduated from Waseda University, which is elite, but still not comparable to University of Toky.
>>23745015Wasn't aware of that thanks a lot, but Shirakura's case is weird since from my understanding he studied system engineering and was originally contracted by Toei as a programmer to design their website and then after making a DOS software he just sort of transitioned into an assistant producer at Toei for some reason, he even was a producer for two 3DO games. I guess when it comes to producer positions what matters the most is cred and management skills, iirc Utsunomiya was accountant for Toei before becoming a producer and the girl that produced the Kakuranger movie was an interior designer, it's weird.
>>23744943There’s a poseable mecha option besides the minipla: The Pladela NEO which will be around $15.55. DX is a roleplay toy first and foremost.
>>23745033Do we know if the Gozyuger equivalent of this poseable line did well?
So what the hell was up with that magic school sentai rumor that kept being pushed until the cancellation was announced.We now know that Gozyu was planned as the end from the beginning.
>>23745036Considering the fact that Bandai revived Pladela, I don’t think so. This Pladela NEO Gavarion can do all 3 modes and it’s poseable which is a HUGE step up from the old Pladela toys.
>>23745055Matt Hunt was adamant sentai was not getting canned so he made shit up
>>23745055Dukemon/Matt got trolledI’ve heard the chinese did it to fuck with him and some others like Jhero. everyone else kinda just took it as gospel. Meanwhile Baidu posters actually mentioned the correct leaks of a 3 man team with a mascot robot the beginning of summer. Some people think someone just misinterpreted BEAT RUNNERS, others think the concept was scrapped or was conceptual
>>23745101>a 3 man team with a mascot robotI mean, we do have three Gavans and a mascot robot.
>>23745055Fake rumor, the usual leakers such as color, lemon, swag five, vinz and that viet fb group that sometimes gets stuff right never brought up the rumorIt was a rumor from a literalwho westerner that later got attention because a literalwho chink expanded on the rumor and then a guy on twitter that usually reposts stuff from color reposted that so some people started treating it as true, if you look back on the archive you see several people calling out how it was fake and that all we knew at that time for sure was that the next show after Gozyuger wouldn't be called Sentai
>>23744947Anniversary movie happen because all 5 core cast wants it, which is why Kakuranger anniversary special exist.
>>23743969i will make this as clear as possible: I DONT GIVE TWO SHITS ABOUT THE DRAMA DOUG AND OTHER REVIEWERS HAD.and you whining because i bring it up makes you look like the lesser person when you could just shut up. also, Mexican, we (thankfully) do not have TMZ. in any case, calling me off because i call them like that, makes you look like you are defending them when all this incident was squarely THEIR fault.
>>23745131Mexican here, I think you are an annoying retarded faggot simp who should fuck off or kill himself. Also you're wrong, we do have gossip tabloids like TMZ here, you stupid retard, they exist everywhere.
>>23745131>all this incident was squarely THEIR faultNo, it was Asai and Maya's fault for having an affair and not even bothering to hide it.

>>23745447They could have at least gotten rid of that divot in the middle of it that makes it look like Don Momotaro's mask
>>23745450The last time we got a retool this blatant was 34 years ago.
>>23745447they did it so much with early sentai and the 80's metal hero's toys, nothing new to bandai.
>>23745464And? It's a good sword. Don't like it, don't buy it and keep your autism in check.
>>23745462Yeah, it is one of the best looking swords but they could at least retool it further so it's not as blatant. It's the blatantness that spergs me.>>23745473I mean Ultraman NewGen still does it, but even then they restrict it to movies (except Z where he got a retool of Orb's lance).That being said if they're gonna retool I would've want them to retool Geats' Raising Sword, it looks much more fitting for a Laser Blade. I know that they use Zanglassword because of Bushido.
>>2374546410 years ago actually. See Ghost
>>23745447He's gonna get a new sword upgrade anyway
new?
>>23745577No, you're just blind or legitimately retarded.
>>23745475Ok, bootlicker.
>>23745541>I know that they use Zanglassword because of BushidoThe sword is a general weapon used by all 3 Gavans, it's not exclusive to Bushido.
>>23745607It's a good sword. Excuse moi for not being a retarded sperg about an old Bandai practice.
>>23745605/ssg/'s hero
>>23745606No, you are. Ghost weapons are so lazy, people believed Amazons stole its budget
>>23745616based
>>23745617So you are retarded, got it.
>>23745614Yeah yeah, go lick Bandai's balls.
>>23745623No you
>>23745625After you, madam. He's getting an upgrade later.
