If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

No.

"I was going through a time period where I was looking up weird stories involving necrophilia..."
Wait is the joke that those themes are all ready elements of current Super Sentai shows?

I don't have a clue in the slightest of what a Sentai/Power Rangers fighting game would be like at this point in time because there are more characters to use than there are particles in the universe.
Mortal Kombat style?
Or really a MvC2/Smash style game with either unbalanced giant rosters or simple inputs?

An ARpg brawler would be fun and you could use it as an excuse to go running across eras.

I'm going to choose to be optimistic about the new Sentai for the sole reason that it looks like the morpher/collectible/role-play gimmick isn't integrated into the mecha. I think?

galagazombie posted:

At this point they need to just have a blanket moratorium on Dinosaurs and Ninja's. I know those things are popular with kids but it's getting to the point where they're just alternating between the two.

Wasn't there a baseball themed sentai that didn't quite make it to production? I want that one back.

Make a Sentai about a team that for some reason is not in their native country. Still an entirely Japanese team, just fishes out of water.

That was Dynaman. Their uniforms were obviously from the baseball days. Very athletic.

If not for Ex-Aid still being somewhat recent, a Video Game themed sentai would work wonders.

This would be actually super rad though because it would give a reason for all those hotswappable robot pieces that get used a maximum of three times throughout the show.

Greek Mythology? Like the suits resemble hoplite's and all the individual mechs are the well-known creatures like a Pegasus, a Medusa, a Siren, etc. and they make a big Zeus megazord with a lightning bolt sword.

Might hew a little too close to some of the stuff from Kyuranger but that's mostly because the constellations were Greek in origin anyways.

A Journey to the West themed Sentai. Goku Red, Sanzo Yellow, Hakkai Black(or Pink?), and Gojyo Blue. Maybe a fifth member based on the White Dragon Horse. Alternatively, a three-man team with Sanzo as the "Mentor."

Alt: A Chinese Zodiac themed Sentai with each member representing an element (Fire Red, Water Blue, Metal Black, Wood Green, Earth Yellow) and the mecha and gear being Zodiac animals. Edit: Also does hew a little too close to Kyuranger, but not as much. It does evoke themes of Gekiranger, Dairanger and even Shinkenger, but they're distant enough that it's fair game to retread. Because it's all Chinese based it does demand a return to kung fu style sort of fights.

double edit: For more traditional Japanese, just go with Youkai. The members are Priests/Priestesses and then an Onmyouji as the sixth. Enemies are either banished or transformed into gear to help the team including mecha.

The only way this would work is if you did something really crazy, like make the villains a mutated strain of the Y2K virus that can only be cured by being really good at video games.

Nah, that would never work.

That there wasn't one for Gokaiger seemed like a missed opportunity. While there'd be a metric fuckton of rangers, most of them would be pallette swaps of the same more member with maybe a hitbox and value change based on weapon and body type.

I think something like MegaMan ZX would work for Gokaiger.

Collect ranger keys, able to pull up a rotating menu to switch them. They'd all basically be the same though, just reskinned swords and blasters. But I would play the absolute poo poo out of it.

The special effects were cheesy even by toku standards and more often than not the actors barely touched each other during combat but it was still decent and probably my second favorite version of the first arc of that series behind the 90's anime. I honestly wouldn't mind that getting another season one day (though you'd probably have to recast most of the leads by this point).
