Some quick bios:
LupinRed- makes rash decisions, unsure of himself LupinBlue- blackhearted, loses himself in character during fights LupinYellow- acts like a "dumb little sister" but actually very firm & competent Patren 1- very serious, aiming for "zero crime." Patren 2- bright, obedient & totally dedicated to hunting the LupinRangers. Patren 3- caring "older-sister" type to the team, not certain if the Lupins are true enemies. And in supporting roles: Yoichi Nukumizu as "Kogure," descendant of the legendary thief Arsene Lupin who aids the LupinRangers. Nigerian/American actor Ike Nwala plays the PatRangers' "Hilltop Commissioner" overseeing their adventures. The PatRangers are also aided by a robot named "Jim Carter" (voiced by Rie Kugimiya) |
I wish the support cast turns out to be good.
|
Holy Shit there is a black guy! last time I saw one in tokusatsu was Faiz.

The show does look quite promising, though I'm going to temper expectations for this. The series' track record suggests that this is probably the right thing to do but if it turns out to be really good then that will be great. |
I'm looking forward to the supporting cast. It's rare to get a black actor in anything but a single episode appearance as a bystander or character/monster of the week. To get one acting as the mentor is pretty awesome.

OH GOD, I hope the Commissioner won't be written as a racist caricature.
|
Kinda looks like the first mech fight will be between the two teams Megazords. Neat!

Well Devilman Crybaby showed that Japan CAN care enough to avoid being racist I think but Japan doesn't get why blackface is bad
|
I...don't remember any black actor in toku acting on racial stereotypes?
I mean you can say the closest you get is the aforementioned cat phantom in Wizard but at the same time, I think it was mainly due to the animal the phantom was based on rather than the person. It was just a "wrong place, wrong time" decision. |
A brotha like me running the show in a sentai? Wow. I’m excited, and suuuuuuuuper nervous. I understand the actor is very careful about not portraying a Stepin Fetchit type, but I’m cautious. If he is on here coonin’ I might have to stop watching. Hoping for the best.
Just caught the trailer. That was pretty darn fantastic. Beautiful slo-mo shots, new locations, and some pretty cool action. I’m glad the rangers have clothing outside of their “uniforms” because both teams are a little meh in that department. Mecha look great with all the practical effects as well. Also, The Lupin Collection is far too toyetic for those not to be in a catalog in the future. |

Off topic, I do hope the tsuika senshis of the show are the rumored pirate team like Darth Gonzo shared previously. Because if so it means we get three teams each representing air(Lupinranger), land(Patranger), and sea(rumored pirate team). And I bet the first part of their names spell out kaizoku which means pirate. |

Wow, it's pretty cool that they are going to have a black guy as the commissioner! I am a bit nervous that his character could be written... unfortunately, but from what I read about his actor, I think this will actually turn out well.
|
So, between getting a black guy to play the commander, and their robot buddy being named Jim Carter I'm starting to think that the Patranger side might be a nod to Rush Hour.

It's good to show sensitivity in these things, but it can be hard for people removed from that culture to even understand the issue. All that being said, I do hope the character doesn't end up being cringe worthy to Western audiences. |
Black dude in Sentai? Hey, I'm down.
I kind of hope he pulls a Kruger and turns out to be a Patoranger himself :lol |
