Mostly it'll be the cast meeting at a con. Gogov & gaoranger did something similar because goyellow had a tumor removed that hindered his left side of his body. They already have shodo/minipla made, so maybe a memorial doron changer?

Is it hilarious that the first female red ranger basically killed power rangers, literally no action figures was made. Only the morpher, a kyurenoh (you might as well buy kyurenoh bechase they marked it up to the same price as a Japanese import for a Amazon exclusive) & dime volcano was made for that line.

I don't think dino fury will look favorably, it's mostly just pushing the lgbtq stuff, that's basically all it's known for.

Is this the thread for an autistic debate about whether or not PapillonOhger is a nonbinary troon

turns out the main writer confirmed that rita is gender neutral. which is w/e because it doesn't change the fact kingohger is a mid greenscreeen sentai. all it means is now tokutwitter has more ways to be annoying. and speaking of tokutwit im surprised people like marcosatsu doesn't have a thread yet.

mid is a bit generous
Kamen Rangers Book Sword Force did the big clunky swords and shit look way better

"Kamen Rangers Book Sword Force" 🤣 but you aint wrong. the writers were given a cool motiff (insects and knights/royalty) yet they fumbled it so hard. fumbled so hard that I'm actually hyped for boonboomger despite the goofy helmets. do we know how well kingohger did in toysales? feels like they gave up on releasing toys half way through the show and relied on milking kyoryuger nostalgia

We're never getting another green ranger anymore because of greenscreen, or so everyone says. Sad. At least green went out on a high note with Sena. I was hoping BoonBoom would have green as the sixth, but nah that's going to be violet.

Rita is the purple ranger, right? I've only caught random bits of Kingohger. Yellow is hot this time around. Love that bratty, rich bitch vibe she has. I don't see how anyone would look at a coat-wearing enbie when the yellow chick is mogging her nonstop.

I thought Rita is female because there is an interview where the actress stated that when she auditioned, she learned there were two heroines in the production.
Translated Excerpt from DeepL:
--I heard that the role of Rita was decided by audition. There were two female warriors in the film, Himeno and Rita.
"At the audition, I learned that there were two female cast members in the upcoming production. During the first screening, the script I received on the day of the audition mentioned Rita and Himeno, and when I read it, I thought, "This one (Rita) is for me! I thought, "This one (Rita) is the one! From that point on, I focused my attention more and more on Rita as I performed."
 

Practical robot fights!

Sena still cracks me up to this day. Every Kiramager had their thing. Pink was a doctor. Blue was an actor. Yellow was a professional gamer. Red had imagination (honestly questionable, since all he ever drew was construction vehicles like a goddamn five year old, but whatever).

And Sena? She ran fast.

Takano Minato the main writer confirmed it in a recent interview or blog post afaik. I remember toei saying that papillon ohgers gender is disclosed then then main writer came out and said she's gender neutral so either she's gender neutral or the main writer doesn't know what gender neutral is and thought it meant disclosed. weird how he waited for the series to end to confirm this, but from what I've seen japanese fans don't care, it's only terminally online twitter users who are hyping it up. I reckon it was a last minute decision or the main writer spends too much time online. either way kingohger was mid and rita being a troon doesn't change this and kirameiger (imo) remains to be the best reiwa sentai

yeah rita is the purple ranger and I'm with you on that one. the yellow ranger this time was so fucking hot and her not being a troon makes her hotter
 
Boonboomger premier was decent. I don't really have any sense of what the show is going to be like based on the premier, but if this is a back-to-basics season after three very experimental seasons, I'm kinda okay with that. Its great seeing real locations again after King Ohger. Red fighting the monster had some pretty decent stunt choreography. The actress playing the pink ranger is weird. Hopefully, she'll grow into the role. That said...

 
got Dekaranger going in the background
I forgot what a difference it makes when the baddies are random crooks with schemes and goals of their own instead of "Gentlemen of the Bad Guy Empire, what shall our scheme be this week to defeat the accursed Power Rangers"
like one was a duo who kidnapped a girl because her dad had a space gem that could be used to power a weapon, and they planned to hold her hostage, get the gem, and sell it on the space black market, they weren't even getting it to blow up Earth, they just wanted space cash
it really does a lot to make the setting more fleshed-out
