I wrote a review forVR Troopers and Super-Human Samurai Syber Squad a few weeks ago for those interested. SSSS I absolutely love and the faults are nostalgic to me so all around awesome. VR Troopers was a show I hated as a kid but never really watched and at first I hated it but by the end of the first season I learned to love it.


Also, I started Legacy Wars which I hate myself for it since I hate free to play games but having Rangers from every season is just awesome, I hope I haven't missed any timed ranger events that F2P games usually have.

Power Rangers already had a "legacy" fighting game, I think it only came out on iphone and it's been a long time ago, the graphics were awesomely realistic but the game chugged on the current years iphone at that time, I never did play it much. At least this game is a little bit better but the graphics are not better.

That? Yeah it was fun for like a month. Also it's 2017, I dont know why people are still focused on graphics, especially on mobile games, lol.

Good review of Troopers sdp. I'll have to check out the Time Out episode, this series really needed to have a proper finale. It pisses me off this and Beetleborgs just end with unresolved plot threads or the characters wind up in stalemate.

Thanks, yeah that show is a mess but man did it grow on me. I really want to see a new AmeriToku that isn't Power Rangers, hell not even another Kamen Rider adaptation but yeah I doubt it'll happen.

Yeah, that was the game, oddly it's not on wikipedia or even linked directly to the other mobile games on the power rangers wiki, odd, if you don't know about it you can't search for it.

I'm not a graphics whore if that's what you're trying to imply, but that game did have very nice graphics and was released what 4 years ago? This game has decent graphics too, just not as good if I go from memory.

Anywho I've played Legacy Wars all day yesterday and now that I know how the paid currencies work and all the different currencies it has and what's available I'm already losing interest. I had fun unlocking those first few Rangers but yeah this game is not for me.

Hopefully we have a game like this that you unlock rangers in another platform, but I doubt it, PRs seems to have stayed a mobile franchise. I'm still bitter that the MMPR game had the Steam version cancelled...

The Deadman 08-03-2017 10:26 AM

The MMPR game on console is punishing. I rage quit after the 2nd level and havent picked it back up since.

Power Rangers' final box office total is 141.9 million

It actually looks like the film will have a final worldwide gross of exactly $142 million.

man, it is just so amazing. To think just a few years ago the idea of having tokusatsu, that isn't an american adaptation (or Godzilla), in the states would have been a fools dream. And now look

Super Sentai on dvd
Garo (both Anime and TV) on Blu-ray
Ultraman on Crunchyroll as well as the Ultraman Manga
and maybe one day that Amazons will come too.

Dinocharge actor Micheal Taber drunkingly tweeted regrets of appearing in the show

so just read the first chapter of the Kamen Rider W sequel manga. I think I am going to love it. did not expect nips

This marks what? Three Kamen Rider manga? Spirits Neo, Kuuga and now W?

sdp 08-13-2017 09:47 AM

So the new comic go go power rangers is just a spin-off of the current one or a new take? This one seems more appealing than the fanfic sounding current one.

Also, how is Ninja Steel doing so far? What's the general consensus.

nips as in nipples or japanese people ? :lol:

I really liked double but not sure if I'd read a sequel manga. I was always interested in Spirits though.

Fans aren't taking too well to it, and would rather not have to put up with Victor and Monty.

Victor and Monty are just redundant comedy elements, in my opninion. Bulk and Skull spin-off, if you wish. My great problem with this season is the childish jokes and the lack of 'life' in the show. I've only seen a few episodes (4-5 maybe), but I found them really cringy. Yes, it is really creative with Brody coming from space, the ninja stars, the monster championship, hayley and Calvin being a couple prior being rangers... But... I don't know. The acting was way better in Dino charge, these actors are just lifeless. Ok, there are a few good ones. Dino Charge and Dino Supercharge were good, however, PR is going on a downhill again. :(

My opinion though.

ZariusTwo 08-13-2017 02:32 PM

I love both Dino Charge seasons, but the hardcore fans were starting to rag on Supercharge a bit too last year. I think it's the new writers they brought on that work with Judd that are seen as the weak links.

It doesn't help that the Sentai Ninja Steel is based off on isn't very popular either.

sdp 08-13-2017 03:55 PM

I forgot to mention that I uninstalled Legacy Wars, I liked the idea but it wasn't implemented very well.

I've never watched Super Sentai, would you guys recommend Go-Busters? I'm not really interested in checking another sentai out, since I'd rather check the "inferior" power rangers version and the older ones are too old, so it's either that one or none at all.

Allio 08-13-2017 06:25 PM

Gobusters is definitely a sentai worth checking out. Considering the ranger keys were still selling that year so they decided to do something a little different, which we see in things such as: pleather, real time transformation, robot companions per ranger, and amazing cockpits. As well as the show having amazing mech fights.

The only down side was that like Gekiranger, a semi-serious season, toy sales for Gobusters lacked and seems to be a failure in Bandai's eyes.

Only thing I could possibly recommend is watching Gobusters returns after the show's Christmas episodes as chronological that is when it takes place. Granted it basically Gobusters/sentai so it might be safe to save it last.

Honestly I would recommend all three skipped sentai (Gobusters, toqgers, zyuohger) maybe the other two over toq for aesthetics.

Hmmm... tbh I didn't watch all of Go-Busters but I can definitely reccomend it if you are up for a more darker storyline. As far as I know, that season didn't really do well in its time. I loved the characters, the possible romance and the suits, although it took me a little time to egt used to them. i think it's worth checking out.
