Mega Man X
By X4 Zero had replaced X as the focus character having the tragic storyline. Then with X5 being the planned conclusion leading into the Zero series where Zero is just the MC.
Then when they went back to X games X7 had Z as a late game unlock while you played as Zero and Newcomer Axel.

It all makes sense when you realize that Zero the the original design the team wanted to go with before getting told to make the MC more like Classic Megaman.
>>
>>723437049
He didn't though, Zero was only arguably the main character in the first two PS1 games, X6 is Alia's game for some reason and then the last two are focused on Axl

But we're talking about the X series, not the Megaman franchise. In that case there is no main protagonist, or, if you want to use the number of games as protagonist as an indication then the classic Megaman still remains king
>>
>>723436841
The only time Tommy was any interesting was when he was the Green Ranger in the early MMPR season and when he was the Red Ranger in Zeo. He sucked as the White Ranger because he was pushed hard and didn't have the chemistry that the original cast did, and he sucked as the Turbo Red Ranger because he overstayed his welcome.

Zero is part of all of Megaman. He killed the original cast, was the carrier of the maverick virus, fought the elf wars, defeated copy X, omega and Weil and ultimately he's still the main focus in ZX which ties into the legends continuity.

>>
>>723442423
>He killed the original cast
No he didn't
>was the carrier of the maverick virus
And X was the reason why reploids exist
>fought the elf wars
So did X, he also used the Mother Elf to erase the Sigma virus and founded Neo Arcadia. In fact, X fought the majority of the Elf Wars alone, Zero only joined near the end
>and ultimately he's still the main focus in ZX
While it's true that the model ZX looks like Zero, Vent and Aile are actually the chosen ones of Model X, and the rest of the models also use model X as a base because it is the only one that can fuse with other biometals
And then ZXA is about not-Axl
>>

X was a retarded faggot who could never achieve peace. Zero created long lasting peace by killing Weil and giving the guardians hope. The Guardians save the day once again and kill Albert

Yeah so did the peace Zero achieved once ZX comes in, peace is never eternal

200 years of true peace was way better than whatever the fuck neo arcadia with the four retarded xtards was. Area Zero aftee getting nuked was in a better state than neo arcadia roflmao

>>
>>723443454
Neo Arcadia never achieved the goal of reploidd and humans living in harmony ZX proves Zero succeeded since reploids and humans are basically the same both can turn into cyber elves which is a plot point in ZX/ZXA. X just created an apartheid state with energy issues

Depends on who you ask. Most Christian clergy would say no, and that only God knows a person's heart, and that no sin is unforgiveable except outright refusing to believe in and try to follow Christ. The Catholic church is the main denomination where most people get the idea that you must actively repent after certain sins or you go to hell, but even they have walked that back hard over the years. You can even google the suicide thing and there's a Catholic site saying they basically do not teach that anymore because most people committing suicide are not in a clear state of mind, by their reasoning.

I hate Cataclysm theory, but frankly Inafune was not the same sort of lead people think he was. He got the shit and stuff together for people to make things, and wrote up lots of ideas independent of the actual writers, but generally that made him an ideas guy pushing for Mega Man super hard and staff manager, not the literal director and lead that completely shifted everything into his dream vision. Legends was a passion project, but he sure as fuck wasn't the one writing, making art, composing music, and leading everyone about to do all that. Some Japanese producers are kind of held about equal as directors, but the fact that Capcom could go around him completely to make games on their own terms showed it was just Inafune being autistic enough to keep having more games made with general concepts he pushed for.

For Power Rangers MMPR to Lost Galaxy are all sequel shows. The shows after that are pretty much standalone until you hit Samurai. Then the shows are sequels to each other for two seasons.
>Samurai and Super Samurai.
>Megaforce and Super Megaforce.
>Dino Charge and Dino Super Charge.
>Ninja Steel and Super Ninja Steel.
>Dino Fury and Cosmic Fury.

For Sentai all seasons are standalone but around the 90s (Ohranger I think?) they started doing crossover movies and that eventually led up to Gokaiger which has a premise that sort of makes it a direct sequel to a lot of seasons since it spoils quite a few, and then every season after Gokaiger has either had Kamen Riders or Sentai teams appear in each season just for the hell of it, sometimes outright being a sequel like KingOhger being a sequel to Kyoryuger.

For Kamen Rider it's mostly standalone. You have V3 being a direct sequel to the original show, and then the Seven Riders teamup movie, Agito is a sequel to Kuuga but they stop mentioning that extremely early on because they didn't want Godai's pain to be for nothing, Decade is a mix of AUs of old shows and actual sequels to old shows, and then everything after Decade is filled with crossover movies and the occasional episodes but they're not typically taken seriously or just a one-off you can understand with no knowledge of the crossover for the most part.

For Ultraman it's intended to be watched whenever because previous Ultras appear in newer shows even as direct sequels in some cases, but it's all presented in a way that it doesn't matter if you watched the older seasons or not.

For Metal Hero it's all standalone except for Juuko B-Fighter and B-Fighter Kabuto which is a direct sequel.

For GARO I believe it's mostly sequels? I haven't actually watched it personally but that's my understanding.

There is somewhat of an overarching narrative between MMPR and In Space. Regardless, you should watch whatever season catches your attention; everything up to SPD is more or less worth watching.

The fascinating thing about the initial era of Power Rangers is realizing that the show changes largely were due to running out the footage/budget they had from the Sentai stuff, so they step onto the next work and shift the setting around what had to forcibly change, and maybe they shift some actors around or replace some and eventually all of the Rangers, but it just keeps going on and on. It's like Dragon Ball going from OG to Z more gradually, with some cast shifting, leaving, cameos, etc and then doing it repeatedly. There's not much for "direction", Power Rangers was clearly improvising every step of the way since they went from a monster of the week to gradual serialization, but too many people write the early franchise off as just basic kooky corny bullshit and have no idea how it kept going on and on for several years. And the plot actually got kinda good here and there til In Space went all in.

Neat, I guess? I wasn't aware it was still popular. It looks like they're from the Dino Rangers series? Did they do a remake of that or something? Or is it a remake of MMPR? I'm 33 years old, but I was a massive Power Rangers fan as a kid. My whole room was Power Rangers themed. I don't collect action figures/toys, but it's cool to see more Sonic and Power Rangers stuff, also Star Wars, but we've always had Star Wars stuff. We have a small anime section but it's cheap low-quality stuff that's over-priced. We're talking like $40-$50 for a 7-8 inch figurine. I don't even know who the manufacturer is, but it doesn't look like a Japanese one. I figured you could get better stuff online.

He rode the Power Ranger fame for most of his life. I can't say I blame him, even after he and it became irrelevant years later. He was so iconic to the series that even 15-20 years later he was still able to make money off the fame.

They did a god-awful film in 2017, but that looked nothing like the original and was a cringey cgi-shitshow with only a couple of half-decent moments.

I found it. It's called "Power Rangers: Re-Ignition" and apparently it was at a New York toy fair. I guess if you're a big collector/toy nerd you keep up on stuff like this. We've already started stocking some of it at the store, but more is apparently releasing in Spring 2026. We have a dedicated section down one aisle for it, and it looks like they're releasing quite a bit of stuff for it.

If you look at the logo though, it's as you said, just a nostalgia cash-grab for the original series. They're probably targeting older males rather than children if anything. You might not be surprised at how many adult men I see come into the store to purchase toys, though it's usually resellers or collectors looking for either DC/Marvel stuff, Star Wars, or Transformers and action figures. I won't be surprised if the Power Ranger stuff sells out quickly as well.

Back in the day, each Super Sentai show was completely standalone, with no real connections between them. Power Rangers used Sentai footage for most of the in-suit scenes (they did film some of their own, but it was cheaper to use Sentai footage), so aside from the times they filmed their own or commissioned footage for specific scenes done by the Sentai crew, they were stuck using what was available.
https://powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Zyu2
The above page has some interesting info on the commissioned scenes they had the Sentai crew make for Power Rangers.

Green Ranger was Red Ranger's brother in the JP source. Unlike Tommy, he actually died afterwards which is why Tommy was always late and shit. They also had to pay Sentai for more Green Ranger footage to give Tommy a decent sendoff.
White Ranger was from another Sentai and the only reason they used him was because he has a Power Coin looking chestplate. Most of the footage of Tommy fighting was him alone because of the JP footage.
Also the White Ranger was a pervy kid who keeps touching the Pink Ranger's tits in the JP source. They got married.

I don't know if it's a trope so much as writers writing a show the show airing and realizing the show doesn't work so they start workshoping a fix before the show is cancelled. It's the same reason why characters personality change in the first season of the show.

I mean the Green ranger was never really a rival. He fought Jason once and it ended on friendly terms, he was put under a spell, was a villain for a bit then the spell was broken, and he left after a while because they didn't have enough Super Sentai footage to keep him in.

I mean yeah you could argue he was main character in Zeo because they made him the Red Ranger but he was never really a rival.

They brought it back for the Wild Force special Forever Red, but the CGI was so shit it did not do it justice.

Basically the remnants of the Machine Empire (Big bad Beetle Borgs they hoped we wouldn't notice) dug him up on the moon and then the Wild Force red rode a motorcycle into its mouth and blew it up, which was bullshit. They should have summoned all the red Zords via Sentai footage and spliced together some sort of budget beam to blow it up but they were too lazy and I guess wanted to give spotlight to the current Ranger.

Current comics which kind of sort of follow their own alternate continuity have some human made Zord that stuck Serpenterra's head on it too. Not sure what's going on with that though.

You'd see something similar if you look at soap operas. It's a long running series that uses no names with maybe a few recognized names(for Power Rangers it's usually VA for the monsters), and then the no names really don't do anything afterward, which leads to a lot of suicides or turning to crime. And as each new season has a new cast, they hire in more people, with that being the height of their career. As it stands, for the original MMPR, I think only 6 cast members have died, Thuy Trang, Jason David Frank, Richard Genelle who played Ernie, and Harold Cannon, who played the principal Mr. Caplan, Robert Manahan who first voiced Zordon, and Machiko Soga, who played Rita physically, which is pretty good for a 30+ year old show.

X8 ending on a cliffhanger implying Axl's infected and then never coming back to that is so funny to me.

Only if the jack-o-lanterns are organs on the rangers and the candies are little guys that run around and shit. Also I was imagining a thing where the candy is just a thing to give the trinkets some nice Halloween imagery. The red would be a normal vampire, not a fruit roll-up vampire.

Oh fuck, I remember that thread. I loved the Ninja Storm shitposting when Lothor revealed he literally was pretending to be retarded.

>>723443858
no, it is not. Nowhere in Christian teaching does it say that suicide is a sin that sends you directly to hell.
It is a misconception

>>723505103
But you commit murder without a chance to regret and repent. That can't be good.

You son of a bitch, I'm IN!!!

>Vampire Red - Vampire Bat Zord - becomes head and wings.
>Werewolf Black - Howling Wolf Zord - becomes lower torso.
>Franken Green - Crackling Monster Zord - becomes upper torso and arms.
>Banshee Yellow - Wailing Ghost Zord - left leg.
>Witch Pink - Creepy Cat Zord - right leg.

>Grim Reaper White - Cadaver Zord, wields giant scythe weapon. Combines with Green, Yellow and Pink to form Megadeath Megazord.

>Witch Pink
I'd go for purple.
>>
>>723512402
I was thinking that, but pink is traditional. Purple would be better, ngl.

Pink would be gaudy in the spooky sentai. Make the witch black like Gozyu Unicorn, and we can give the wolf orange because it's the Halloween color. And what if we made the banshee blue but a corpsey pale blue? Yellow isn't a color that says ghost to me.

Also, the mechs should have a bunch of "crowns" decorating all the connection ports so when it all comes together, it looks like a stitched-together monstrosity.

Because their lives are miserable and the only "joy" they get in life is making everyone else miserable.

Wait a sec.
Red head and torso
Black arms
Blue boot
Yellow boot

So the pink ranger was useless and didnt contribute to the megazord?

>>723513395
she has the big teeth chest

>>723513395
Her zord is the chest piece.

It's kind of crazy that Reuben Langdon was in the B Fighter Kabuto, which they used for Metallix

It wasn't any of them. Retards who haven't actually read the Bible, which is most American Christians, just picked it up out of nowhere.

There are new kids getting into Power Rangers through serializing, so some of that could be targeting them.

As always, there's some faggot named Schlomo or Chaim or someone similar involved

>>723453043
Very nice choice.
For me, it's Rio. He even comes with his own bitch.

Too bad after Go-Onger/RPM every villainess and villain for that matter was fully costumed. I think Tenaya was the last villainess with a visible face.

Also the Japanese Green Ranger literally had less than 24 hours to live in the real world, so he had to stay in a special room to stay alive.
>>
>>723511498
First thing I was reminded about while reading this was Kiva.
>>
It's really weird seeing the MMPR Japanese ending. Like it's really upbeat with the team and mentor going to heaven after saving the baby dinos but isn't it a euphemism for the entire team dying?
>>
>>723513395
The Pterodactyl is the chest armor. It's also red and white instead of pink.

I remember watching the movie in theaters and it being an absolute banger. The megazord at the end was damn cool
>>
>Met him at a con
>Got a cool pic autographed pic with my name on it
>Had him autograph my MMPR The movie game for the SNES to
>Said he never played it himself and asked him how his character was in the game
>Told him he was unique because he was a mirrored version of the other 5 rangers
>He asked me who the best one was in the game
>My autismal self tells him its Rocky, because he has the best moveset when not morphed
>Fucker calls Steve Cardenas over(Rocky actor) who was present at the con and says "This guy says you're better than me"
>Freak out because I think I offended him
>They both get a good laugh and Steve signs the game to
I genuinely cried when I heard he killed himself, the only interaction I ever had him but it was one I'll remember forever.
Happened at the Puerto Rico comic con if you're curious of the convention.
