The real problem with Power Rangers vs. Super Sentai is there's no reason for world conquerors to care about high-school drama.

Like, why does Rita care about who Tommy dates?

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

I know nothing about fixing broken down cars. I have no experience as a mechanic.

Hey look, now it's fixed!

 

[Aiii]

Even the replacements got screwed too.

Spoiler

Aisha stays in Africa so we get Tanya for Zeo.
Rocky gets injured so we get Justin in Turbo
Tommy, Adam, Kat, and Tanya just get kicked out.
Justin's departure is sudden.

At least Kendrix got to die a hero

Justin nearly killed the entire franchise, so yeah, no big loss on that one.

EMOTIONAL WARFARE!

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

I never thought about it as a kid, but these evil space gods care way to much about teenagers personal lives.

this plus the fact that they are all on a first name basis with the villains is just too funny.

 

[TheChits]

Purrrrrfect

Is there any explanation for why

Spoiler

Tommy, Adam, Kat, and Tanya

leave?

They graduate and leave Angel Grove.

Why they can't just teleport over there when there's trouble, nobody knows.

 

[redmetal86]

You're in trouble now, Tommy.

Megaranger handled it correctly. Nezirejia didn't know who they were until the last couple episodes so the Rangers got to live High School life normally, while balancing being superheroes of course.

 

[Hubbl3]

Man I didn't realize how cute Aisha was back in the day

 

[Boss Doggie]

Kim is the only one who gets a decent send-off from the Mighty Morphin crew. Billy/Zach/Trini/Jason all got treated terribly.

to be fair Zach/Trini/Jason were fired all of a sudden, whereas Billy just walked out

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Season 3 is full of multi parters.

 

[Megawarrior]

Kat is an animporh or whatever that book was called?

 

[Miggy]

Tommy exposed

 

[Penguin]

They graduate and leave Angel Grove.

Which they can't just teleport over there when there's trouble, nobody knows.

It's funny since eventually they wouldn't even care about them being high school age

But probably thought wasn't relatable

 

[Sn4ke_911]

You would think Skull and Bulk would get annoying sometime but nope they are hilarious.

 

[Frumix]

OH yeah now I remember this.

Isn't that person

Spoiler

the one who replaces Kimberly?

There were a couple of Sentai shows set in high school. Of course, they were set up a little bit differently.

Zordon explains this. They need to move on with their lives/etc. Imagine trying to raise kids while being a PR.

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

Bulk and Skull are the real MVPs of the franchise.

And the most character development too. From pathetic comic relief bullies to badass heroes at the end of In Space.

King for a Day arc is going to be good! Though I'll probably be asleep when it airs.

At least he cares more about their kids than the kids he has fighting for their lives on a weekly basis against the evil warlords.

 

[Defuser]

Tommy AFK finally got him into trouble.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Kat is hot as shit. Maybe it's the aussie accent.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Surely we must be getting close to Zeo, no? I don't recall the original suits sticking around for this long.

 

[Omnicent]

kids is just an example. People were saying why couldn't they just stay rangers forever more or less.
This is something they could have touched on more (hold family for ransom and other things, than these silly games).

 

[Miggy]

haha HARAMBE PUNCH

 

[redmetal86]

The ape zord is about as tall as any monster, yet only forms a Megazord arm, and the Megazord itself is about as tall as any monster.

 

[allenpergallon]

Damn Rita unintentionally jabbed cat Kat in the eye. Painnnnnnn.

 

[Aiii]

Surely we must be getting close to Zeo, no? I don't recall the original suits sticking around for this long.

We're a long time off. We need the whole pink ranger arc behind us, which is long. Then there's the thunderzords, then there's the alien ranger arc.

So yeah, not for a while.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Tommy confirmed for simp

 

[MHWilliams]

There were a couple of Sentai shows set in high school. Of course, they were set up a little bit differently.

I mean, I've seen most of them. Even the ones set in high school, or near high-school age, their high-school lives are mostly separate from the world-killing villain action.

"Okay, teamwork guys!"

Rocky, bro, you're barely a leader.

 

[Miggy]

welp we furry now.

 

[Penguin]

I miss the dino calls for morphing but understandable

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Twitch so biased to Green Ranger, they really don't have a White Ranger emote, wtf twitch.

Not that i would ever subscribe but still...

 

[Windam]

Will Kim's departure be happening within the next three or so hours?

Does Saba even talk anymore?
Edit: yup

 

[Miggy]

USE THE FORCE TOMMY!

 

[Massicot]

Edit: yup

lol everytime

 

[Sephzilla]

gotta admit the martial arts scenes they filmed for the US version got pretty convincing after a while

 

[Karkador]

They brought in a stunt team based in Japan, I think.

 

[OrionX]

Oh good. I tuned back in just in time to watch them fight a lady in a dollar store cat costume.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

I've always assumed that the moment the morphing happened the actors were no longer in the costumes unless the helmets needed to come off. How much truth is there to that?

 

[ShadyK54]

Yup.

Just woke up & didn't realize I had the stream up all night lol.

 

[Windam]

Sure, pay to fly in a stunt team from Japan and pay them for their work, but don't give your actors livable wages. *grumbles*

 

[PsychBat!]

Just came back

I thought they were ninjas now.

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

Oh god, I forgot that Ninjor sounds like Kermit the Frog.

 

[Penguin]

Also, and know later on, but this is the first season where they get a second set of Zords, right?

 

[Boke1879]

They graduate and leave Angel Grove.

Why they can't just teleport over there when there's trouble, nobody knows.

But I could at least buy that excuse. "Life" happens and they just can't devote their time to being rangers like that.

 

[redmetal86]

Ninjor's Marvin the Martian voice always cracks me up.
