2nd cour PV:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CE_SamTpIe4Old thread: >>23765630
>New Seiji VA (Ryotaro Okiayu): Also, I’d really love to see the "Armor Gear" worn by the senior team get turned into plastic model kits!"Just a reminder that he wants more model kits for the Samurai Troopers. I don't know where else was he vocal in his love for model kits besides Kotobukiya and SRW news streams (the former often related to his voice roles like McCrane/Build Tiger in J-Decker or Zero in Mega Man X)...
What are your pros and cons on Yoroi Shinden's first cour?
>>23799712Rebroadcast was all for an April Fools bit, with the extra material being that "sorry for a rebroadcast" apology card. Folks missed only that meme.
What are the expectations here for old and new gen trooper dynamics?
>>23799976One positive I'll say is I learned of songs I never knew of before and like some of them and listen to them at the youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLTkoNaFYuY3eocTQs4qYjA
https://youtu.be/u8B96RwHV7w?si=J3lRocrgce5D5KF2You know, I want a new cover of this song in the second cour. Random? Maybe.
>>23799976Pros: Interesting set up and charactersCons: Pacing, lack of character development, lack of villain presence, and overuse of singing (don't argue with me on this, MOST fans globally didn't care for it)
>>23801367They could definitely use a few covers of the other songs. Maybe a version of "Journey Without a Map" where you get all five of the new Troopers singing too, since for some reason Hiroshi Takemura (Touma) was absent in the original version.
https://youtube.com/shorts/yVNgQa-BM0E?si=6aIriL2M8d1ZKKJgFor those who want to see a 3D-fied version of the original Equip scene for Ryo. I want this dubbed with more appropriate dialogue: "Equip, Armor of Wildfire!" None of the dubs or original subs use the word "Equip" for some reason, and it's the most modern translation so far.>>23801445That's an interesting choice. But I want covers of some old songs done by the new Troopers, and Honoo no Soldier would fit Gai because it has light rock mixed in. But a Samurai Heart cover for the final episode overall would be awesome.
>>23801548Maybe if Sunrise foots the bill for a redub of YST to go along with YSST, but in a better marketing strategy than Toei did with Saint Seiya '86 to promote the CGI show.
Speaking of scenes not fully shared online:https://youtube.com/shorts/is3Eisl283M?si=uNAjVODukXilNPbeI... never saw the scene of White Blaze freeing the remaining Troopers anywhere on Tweet-X. I assume it was cut in the Crunchyroll versions, but I'm not too sure either.
>>23799976Pros;-The new Characters are decent.-Surprisingly doesn't shit on the original series and respectfully added to what was already there.-Reused concepts from the scrapped original sequel that would've came out in the 90s.-Gave the original cast from Yoroiden a chance to shine and even got a victory round for the OG troopers against the big bad of the season.Cons;-Pacing. The show is too short for what it needs to tell and it tried to cram too much into what time it had.-The music is an absolute nothingburger when standing up to Yoroiden's outstanding soundtrack.-Killing off the only new female protag character. Granted, with how the first season ends it's possible for her return but it still seems unnecessary.-The ambiguity of whether or not the OVA's are canon.-The armor gears for the 3rd gen Troopers are much too blocky and not very aesthetically pleasing.-The cel-shading CGI is also not something that looks very good. Hopefully they'll dial it down next season.Overall though, I liked it and am looking forward to season 2.

>>23801548Yeah, the old image songs sung by the new guys could be good.Unfortunately, likely due to Takemura not being so adept at singing as the rest of the old crew, Touma only had "SKY DREAMER" so Kaito would only have that unless they'd have him and Shion do a cover of "Cool Moon" (the Seiji and Touma duet).
https://x.com/takako_s22/status/2035296587354882116You gotta wonder if the old man troopers' heights and weights are anything like the MESSAGE ones or have evolved a little more.That's the group at 17~18, some stop growing around then but some men continue and this is anime after all.>Ryo: 176cm, 62kg>Touma: 178cm, 66kg>Seiji: 175cm, 61kg>Shin: 174cm, 63kg>Shuu: 170cm, 62kg- Touma text: " "As he's grown up, his hobbies have changed. Jogging, swimming, computer. His favorite sport is still baseball. His special skill, is of course, Japanese archery. By the way, his weight is 66kg. It seems like there will be changes for the other four as well, but that's something to look forward to."- Shin: "Shin, who was born early in the year (March 14) is 18, a year ahead of his peers. He turned 174cm tall, and his weight is 63kg. His favorite sport is of course, swimming. Shin's hobby is learning English conversations, and he's become so fluent that it could almost be considered a special skill, which seems to suit him."- Shuu: "He is 170cm tall and weighs 62kg. What's most noteworthy is his hobby. He used to openly declare that eating was his hobby, but now it's mountain climbing. His favorite sports have also changed to Tai Chi and rugby."- Seiji: "The five became samurai in a fight that was forced upon them from their normal lives. Even after shatting the Kikoutei, they were simply stunned. Still, for a warrior like him, kendo is a part of life, and when he feels like it he goes cycling and watching F-1 races. His favorite racer is Prost. Height: 175cm, weight 61kg"- Ryo: "Ryo is 176 cm tall and weighs 62kg, so he's growing steadily(?). His hobbies are birdwatching and soccer. His position is center forward, which suits Ryo's personality perfectly."
