Ninja Steel is in fact coming in 2017.

Saban posted:

Saban's Power Rangers Ninja Steel starts deep in space, where Zircon is the reigning champion of the most popular intergalactic game show in the universe, and monsters battle to prove who is the mightiest warrior. Zircon is determined to become invincible by controlling the mythical Spirit Crystal, which contains six supernatural Ninja Power Throwing Stars. The only thing standing in his way is a new team of heroic teenage Power Rangers who possess the Spirit Crystal. The evil Zircon sends his warrior contestants down to Earth to steal the Crystal, where each epic battle against the Rangers is broadcast throughout the universe. Together, the Rangers must master their arsenal of Throwing Stars, Zords and Megazords, each made of legendary ninja steel, in order to stop this evil threat and save our planet from destruction.

If they play up that intergalactic game show flavor way up this could be something amazing.

I guess after "Symbol Power" in Samurai I should have seen "Throwing Stars" coming but man does that term sound dumb.

EDIT: Also are they going to address why one of the throwing stars is in a cheeseburger?

So this is my last week here in Fast Download Land (dorms in France), and I thought I might as well download as much toku as I can while I'm here, but I'm also lazy so I'm just using the list from the second post (it's a month old at worst, so no issue).

Are shows without a COMPLETE, but no "in progress" either, complete? Or is it a crapshoot?
Shows without links, TV-N aside, they're still not TV-N subs, yes? Like, they're watchable/good?

This is more specific, but is there a batch for O-T's Shinkenger anywhere? I think I have the first five episodes on another PC, but with being abroad and all, I figure it'd be better to go for the whole thing.

I'm not gonna lie. I actually really like the idea of Intergalactic Evil Monster Show. The ninja stuff is hilariously out of tone with the rest of the pitch though.

anything without a link is just me being lazy and not editing in links right away

anything with a subgroup and no other comments is finished, no subgroup no subs (that aren't TVN)

Find one of the Tokyo Shock DVDs second-hand?

Man, I have all sorts of poo poo to say about Hakaider; I don't even know where to start. Before I realized that toku was a thing or what Kikaider was, I rented Hakaider from somewhere right around 2001/2002 and loved it to death. It's a great example of that excessively gritty 90s aesthetic and just so goofily earnest.

Hakaider is the best.

I lost my copy of the DVD but I loving love the line that went with that image. It was something like "If you are good, then I am evil."
Just the most 90s as gently caress thing in the best way. If actual 90s anti heroes were like Hakaider, comics would have been amazing

15 episodes into Zyuranger and it continues to be most excellent, Witch Bandora and the Dora Monsters are shaping up to be my favorite Sentai villains, and a serious competitor for favorite Toku villains(got some serious competition from the Kamen Rider side of things though)

Man, you know who was a great villain? Ransik. I mean, this was years ago the last time I watched the series, but the dude actually felt human. Like an individual, instead of just a hammy stage villain (though he was definitely that, too).

(For people who need context about this xtreme 90s edginess: This is the big showdown between Hakaider and Michael, the top robo-enforcer in the fascist, post-apocalyptic dystopia of JESUSTOWN. They're struggling back and forth, and Michael picks up an orchid as a prop, which Hakaider then grabs and leads to hakaider.gif at the end there)

Hakaider is a deeply, profoundly dumb movie, and I love it.

I'm very sad that ghost 13 isn't up yet, but also am hopeful that the translation team is using this extra time to get themselves some time off and really just relax. Mainly because no one ever says 'you know what guys, we know you're people to, so please just relax and thanks for doing this for us people who can't understand the language.'

So.

You know what guys? I know you're people too, so please just relax and thanks for doing this for people like me who can't understand the language of the stupid kids show that I love to watch.

Ghost 13 is great because at this point Makoto is actually just flat out magic and whenever Takeru is about to get in a fight he apparently has some kind of alarm in his head go off.

Yeah. I'm a diehard Sentai apologist for even the lamest seasons and it drives me crazy how far in we are and how little has happened.

I think Ghost starting and getting so drat good in the second half of its mere 13 episodes has really made that stand out.
