So related to me finding my old toys a few weeks ago, I sorta got so nostalgic about my Power Rangers that I watched a few episodes of it on Netflix
The rubber suit sections, the fight choreography, and the effects and poses and stuff are still all good, even the American civilian fights but thats the thing, I can super tell now when its original footage and Sentai footage. Its day and night so I got curious and I looked up a few clips this blows my mind. Truly this was a thing long before it existed here. I almost feel like I was lied to, like finding out the tooth fairy doesn't exist or something lol now I'm actually wondering if this is any good. I don't think I'll extend to anything other than this, but I can't believe this caught my interest this much that song is catchy as fuck too --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

If anyone is nostalic for Super Sentai I would recommend playing through Chroma Squad. Tactical RPG game about creating a Super Sentai studio where you play through the episodes yourself. Fun little game

Kakuranger was kinda scary for kids, lots of characters actually dying in fairly bloody ways and it seemed to have a generally darker tone when one of the newer villains showed up.

I watched around 10 episodes of Power Rangers on Netflix before stopping
one thing that confused me is Megazord's finishing move, I could've sworn he passed through them during the slice but apparently thats just from the game --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also its funny seeing how many finishing moves they have
They can combine their blasters and create one big blast then they can combine their power weapons for the power blaster then they can summon their zords and the episode occasionally ends before the Megazord even shows up then of course the Megazord itself, it can finish the battle without the sword then the sword finisher Unfortunately they never do ALL of them in one episode THEEEN I remember later the Dragonzord can combine with the Megazord THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN I remember there was this white brontosaurus zord, The combined Megazord Dragonzord can combine with this fucker and he just UNLEASHES DEATH Yea, I loved this shit as a kid --- ...

It was interesting to see Sometimes the Pink Ranger solos the monster by herself with just her bow
its actually impressive You'd think it'd be the Red ranger doin that with his sword that is, actually kill the monster and not even go into "grow" scenes --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

In all seriousness, Liveman was the only Sentai series that grabbed me. It predates Power Rangers and the series it's based on. The bad guys were a conglomeration of geniuses, it was great.

I've watched some of Zyuranger, Dairanger, and Kakuranger and all were good, but I became I complete fanboy over Shinkenger and Gokaiger back when RPM was the final season of Power Rangers ever. Oh my god, Gokaiger is so good.
It's astounding how disappointing Samurai and Super Megaforce are in comparison. Not only are they easily two of the very worst seasons ever, but the Sentai they use are soooo freaking good. --- "In my headcanon, some staffer saw Trump pull out his phone and start typing so they just Terry Tate Office Linebacker'd him out of his shoes." - FFD ...

Oh my god, Gokaiger is so good. The Gokaiger are space faring pirates on Earth seeking the ultimate treasure. They wield keys allowing them to change into the past 34 Sentai teams after all of them sacrificed their powers in a great war against an invading army. In that clip, the Gokaiger use the Zyuranger keys to use their powers and weapons in the fight as the actual red ranger from Carranger (our Turbo Ranger) watches on. I couldnt find any good clips from earlier in the season, unfortunately. But, yeah, it's a huge legacy season with stolen powers on a team essentially acting in their own self-interests, but have to understand the imporrance and power and responsibility of all past seasons to grow and truly become heroes. As I was typing, I thought: Its essentially Firefly if it were Power Rangers. Theyre a small band of outlaws from all diffetent walks of life trying to get by and going up against a powerful everpresent army. Red, Captain Marvelous, is Mal. Blue, Joe, is Zoe. Yellow, Luka, is Jayne. Don, Green, is a mix of Simon and Wash. Princess Ahim, Pink, is a mix of Kaylee and Inara. And Gai, Gokai SILVAH, is... uh... he's a fanboy. He's the Firefly fanboy who will merrily push you into watching Firefly and Buffy and Angel and he can be both cloying and over the top, but truly joyous and overflowing with reverence and love. That really wasnt that quick a summation, was it? --- "In my headcanon, some staffer saw Trump pull out his phone and start typing so they just Terry Tate Office Linebacker'd him out of his shoes." - FFD ...

All you need to know about the clip is that the green ranger turned into the black ranger and strummed the axe like a guitar after thr fight.

That girl just said a Sailor Moon line. Sailor Moon is so iconic, it gets quoted in other series. As for Super Sentai, have seen the originals. The US version is decent but a lot were cut to suit the localization. Been trying to watch the classics, and trying to keep updated on the newer ones.
