By any chance, does anyone have the ShinkenAnon release of Magiranger? It's next on my boyfriend and I's watch list and neither of us wants to sit through all of TV-Nihon's version. I've tried looking myself, but the one backup link I did find was dead as well.

If the thing standing between watching a series or not is lack of non TVN subs, watch the TVN subs. Any non Japanese speaker that has watched that series did the same.

TVN is bad, but so is not watching the series.

This is what I've had to do with Kamen Rider Blade, Kiva and Kabuto and will probably have to do with Ryuki as well.

It's not going to stop us. With Shinkenger, we watched what ShinkenAnon had gotten done, then switched over to TVN for the rest. I was hoping to do something similar with Magiranger, but it seems ShinkenAnon's version of it has been lost in the ether.

Kyoryuger 39: Holy cow, plenty of out-of-suit action (though I'm fairly certain they used a double for Ramirez). Also, Torin being smug as gently caress. "A thousand warriors? Should have sent more." :smug:

I assume some elements were taken from the recent movie. Spino Daioh looks neat, and i liked Mikoto's song.

Okay, yeah, that 10 man roll call brings me back. I didn't think I'd like any cast more than Marvelous & co, but when you put all 10 together there are some pretty awesome moments. The end kinda made me feel like I was watching Macross, but it's not like that's a bad thing anyways.

I usually don't mind too much, but this week's Kyoryuger has the most bizarre location jump over the commercial break. They go from inside the broadcast station to out in the quarry/field with no hint of them actually heading out there.

I'm just glad they're not pushing a "Yayoi, Amy, and other girls that show up ALL want to jump King's bones" angle. Amy seemed genuinely befuddled as to why Yayoi would be upset about Daigo meeting a famous, cute popstar at the airport.

Give Zedge a try, either they'll have what you want or you can get something easy enough to chop up. It let's you download the mp3, and I've been able to find sounds for pretty much every Heisei rider series and some before.

I love Kyoryuger's cast but hate its mechs. Assuming that Tokkyuger continues the rather historic tradition of Good Mechs From Train Designs, we might actually see one of the first not-quite-cumbersome sentai mechs since... hell, Shinkenger? I think all the mechs since then have been kind of clunky as hell.

I just want good toku mech choreography.

If you don't like the Go-Busters mech fights I dunno what to tell you.

And Gokaiger's mechs weren't cumbersome, it's just that they very rarely did anything interesting with them.

Please tell me I'm reading this wrong because half of Shinkenger's final robot was a literal stand for the actual robot because it could not move under the weight of its own clusterfuck.

That is in fact what I meant. :doh: Shinkenger was kind of the hearld of goofy rear end cumbersome as gently caress mechs in my eyes, and while we have never again reached Shinkenger Parade Float tier, most mechs since Shinkenger happened have been a degree of unwieldy and clumsy as gently caress.

Gokaioh had several scenes in which it looked quite nimble (perhaps shown the most as Deka Gokaioh), and Kyoryuzin could actually move a lot in the first few episodes, but then seemed to lose that ability entirely (I'm going to guess the reason is "budget", as per usual with Sentai and Kamen Rider).

It's sad because Kyoryuger has no excuse to not have super-moving robots. It's a series about dancing! The dinosaurs are dancing too, the ending says so!

Today was kind of awesome. For our skit in Japanese III, my partner and I did a short Rider VS Monster scene which went over well. Every excuse to use my Double Driver is a good one, and he used a Charmander onesie costume, so that was pretty great. Then for the rest of the period we ate snacks for an end of semester party and I put on Shinkenger 14. (The same in brown! Richard Brown!) I tend to downplay my own nerdiness in that class since I'm sure my teacher gets more than enough of those guys in a Japanese class, she's usually pretty stonefaced and serious, but she laughed at Mr. Brown and liked that the Shinkengers had Kanji on their helmets, so I consider that a success.

The skit itself will never see the light of day outside of my friends, but I thought I'd share the story anyway since I was able to spread the joy of Tokusatsu today.
