HKR posted:I think the lessons we can learn from this is that there is a small group of people who would enjoy someone taking OT's more accurate translations and adding back in the honorifics while maybe doing some visual jazz to the attack names. Isn't that pretty much exactly what the Aesir subs for OOO did?

I'd say you actually picked the perfect time to become interested, since the currently running Sentai show (Kyoryuger) is the loving mother load of goofy.

Endorph posted:I watched the first few episodes of Os, and wow, this is a lot better than I was expecting. I mean, I was just looking for goofy action, but the back and forth between Ankh and Eiji is actually a pretty interesting take on the HERO DEFEATS BAD GUY tropes. "Why is the belt singing?" "Nevermind that, just start hitting!" Yeah, Ankh and Cakeboss are pretty much the best parts of the show.

Duet posted:Magiranger was the first sentai series I started watching and it's pun intended magical. Utterly goofy and really fun, Mandora Boy notwithstanding. Even Mandora has his moments when Tsubasa is fed up with everyone's poo poo and decides to weaponize him.

The IXA wielders are important because they were the first females to actually get to be Riders (Akira didn't count because she got cold feet until Decade) and not die by the end of the show.

Nah, the best is the storm drain because they rarely ever break out and when they do it means SERIOUS poo poo (see: the final battle in Faiz).

To be fair Cakeboss was never evil or good. He merely wanted to see people live up to their desires, whatever they may be. Or to use a horrible metaphor, he didn't want to set the city on fire, he just wanted to watch it burn. The fact that Maki's desire was, in fact, to eliminate desire (and everything else) only nominally nudged him over to the heroes' side.

toomanyninjas posted:Thought a long-time sentai fan, I'm fairly new to Rider having watched only Fourze and W. I started reading up on Decade after watching the W/Decade movie and I was wondering why Decade was only 30 episodes long? Was it because TOEI wanted to realign to Rider/Sentai schedule and stagger them instead of have series running parallel? That and (allegedly) a bit of accounting gymnastics to give Decade a 50-episode budget for 30 episodes of content. But they still found ways to cheap out. loving Kivala puppet on a fishing line

As always, I'm gonna recommend Agito. If you can get past the early-00s CG that looks like a PS2 game, it really is one of the best heisei shows. And not just because of G3. ...okay, it's mostly because of G3. gently caress it, I'm biased.

Cipher Pol 9 posted:I like how every other ranger is super bright and flashy, but Overdrive Red's is like a weird full body shape change effect that looks more suited to a Rider or even a Metal Hero. What, you figured they'd actually take the time to match their in-house effects to the Toei stuff? gently caress that, they need that time to insert more explosions!
