Why are they watching a Super Sentai episode?

I wonder if the Japanese cast also gets paid peanuts.

they do but for different reasons

most of the sentai/rider actors are newcomers and work under a casting agency, toei pays the agency and it's up to the agency to give them cash

you get news of actors being overworked, etc. living off instant noodles, etc. though some do it because eventually they go big

I remember reading they do, but Sentai stars are typically grommed to become film and music idols.

It might have been in the last thread.

 

[jett]

Wooooow

 

[WillyFive]

What the fuck is this?

I haven't watched Power Rangers since Mighty Morphin.

I have questions.

Is ever season given a different subtitle or are the actually seperate series?

Why is Mighty Morphin the only one with a distinctly different logo? The look of "Power [lightning bolt] Rangers" has been the same since Zeo.

Each team has a different subtitle, but they might last for more than one season.

For example, MMPR lasted 3 seasons, Samurai, Megaforce, and Dino Charge lasted 2 seasons each. Each one is a separate series, but they are all seasons of Power Rangers (1-3, 18-19, 20-21, 22-23 respectively).

He's done ralphing!

Ha gonna start using ralphing!

Conner is basically the personification of twitch chat right now

[bigkrev]

This is like watching a fever dream

 

[Fancyarcher]

Glad they kept the music in it. It's so silly it works.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

I'm curious if Disney could get away with just dubbing of Sentai for a whole season.

 

[Omnicent]

wtf, this is all clip worthy

Most likely but a lot of them are cast simply because they are good looking. They go on to be various entertainers/actors for a while. Or in Kamen Rider's cases something goofy as hell as this to being considered the most handsome trendy young man in the country two years later haha.

This music is hype

 

[Boss Doggie]

ABARE ABARE!

 

[Hydrophobic]

Clip. The. Whole. Thing.

 

[F0rneus]

The meta is just too damn good

 

[ShadyK54]

It's funny that I didn't understand what the hell the point of this episode was back when I was a kid. I was confused as shit.

NOW IT MAKES ALL THE SENSE.

 

[Fancyarcher]

Just a slightly different interpretation.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I'm curious if Disney could get away with just dubbing of Sentai for a whole season.

I imagine this episode was the test for that.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Honestly, I'm kind of impressed. This is a pretty creative way of using Abaranger footage that was pretty much impossible to localize.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Conner is an expert on Japanese Culture!

 

[Penguin]

They didn't even defeat the monster with their zords!

I have questions.

Is every season given a different subtitle or are the actually separate series?

Why is Mighty Morphin the only one with a distinctly different logo? The look of "Power [lightning bolt] Rangers" has been the same since Zeo.

Most importantly: How old were you when you started watching Power Rangers, what series was your first and how old/what series did you stop at?

Me: 8 years old, MMPR. That's my answer for both

Different logo, different show. Mighty Morphin lasted three seasons. That cast transitioned to Zeo, Turbo, and In Space. Since then, each new logo represents a new setting and cast.

Super Sentai don't pay.

Red like "How much we talkin'? JK Y'all!"

I bet you this episode was a test to see if it was feasible. Disney wanted to go as low budget as possible

 

[shingi70]

This was a creative way to use footage that would be Impossible to translate into a normal Episoide.

We're on Dino Thunder now and you JUST NOTICED?

Anyway, Zeo, Turbo, and In Space are continuations of MMPR.
Then it becomes separate series after that.

 

[Frumix]

They actually did.

 

[Boss Doggie]

damn right!

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

I imagine they cut the Zord battle to make room for the American cast segments.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

nvm

 

[WillyFive]

Maybe it was one of the earlier episodes?

It was cut from the episode.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Clearly they has to stop when they saw SPD pink ranger kept taking baths.

I guess around 7 or 8
MMPR was my first
I stopped after Time Force

 

[Fancyarcher]

"The Funky Fisherman's cartoon show" - Sounds like something from out of the 60's.

 

[shingi70]

They should drop all.lretense that this is America. They wouldn't be watch Manchester United.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

It makes there's a new cast. The originals can't play teenagers for 20+ years.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Disney wanted reruns and dubs iirc.

 

[F0rneus]

Fight me but Kira's best Yellow Ranger. Sorry Trini.

 

[PartTimeWarrior]

Bring out the dancing lobsters

7:30 Sunday morning television

 

[Boss Doggie]

Clearly they has to stop when they saw SPD pink ranger kept taking baths.

Also Doggie's shirtless scenes.

 

[F0rneus]

Also Doggie's shirtless scenes.

Everytime shirtless scene is mentioned, it somehows summon that Leo clip.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Punishment Chamber. What is with PR and S&M?

Punishment Chamber. What is with PR and S&M?

it seems every season since the first sneaks in one bdsm reference here and there. Kimberly one was the most overt tho

 

[What did he mean by this?]

So they're just now realizing all the monsters they've been killing have been mutated humans

 

[F0rneus]

Punishment Chamber. What is with PR and S&M?

Pretty sure, that's not a coincidence. Show is damn bondage heavy.
