"Credit: You"
Daww, I see what you did there. :p My attendance record when it comes to posting around the forums has been pretty flaky these past 5 years, but I never stopped visiting the site. Besides, I'm usually not the forum type anyway, which probably says a great deal about this place's atmosphere. Like, I'm actually one of the people who came here from TFW (1/5/12 'fo life!), but that site is big and scary enough to me that I'm very much content to lurk in the shadows. Also I'm kind of a handful to deal with between my pronounced love of Ghost, Wizard, and the last 5 years of Sentai (and probably a million other things you hate), so I'm continually amazed anyone puts up with me at all. I swear, I was way easier to get along with back when Fourze was airing. :lol Anyway, here's to five more. |
Everyone's sharing their stories, so here's mine :p
Back in 2011 I was a regular poster over on TFW, but the double whammy of Gokaiger and Power Rangers Samurai (because back then Saban getting the franchise back was a pretty exciting prospect) really revived my interest in Super Sentai and (as a result) tokusatsu as a whole. I quickly became a regular in the Power Rangers toy thread and it wasn’t long before Kickback offered me the opportunity to join the staff of a new project he had in the pipeline. This was pretty exciting for me not just because of the thought of Tokunation, but also because while I enjoyed TFW I always felt like I was “outside” the community somewhat. Tokunation has really changed that for me and I’ve made a lot of great friends here, even though most of you are across the pond <3 So yeah, I’ve been here since the very beginning and it’s been a hell of ride going from a general newsie and Power Rangers forum mod to eventual super mod. Time zones, not being a student anymore and just generally not having the same free time I used to means I don’t contribute as much as I’d like to now, but this site means the world to me and I’ll be part of it until the very end. So much has happened in those five years – the death of Mega Upload and everyone panicking about what that meant for fansubs, the bizarre disappearance of Yokatta and everyone scrambling to find a new middleman service, the great spambot attack of 2013, that time Sentai and DaiRiderRX/Guard Convoy were fellow mods, the Akibaranger subforum, but most importantly those two times I was almost on Talkin’ Toku but then technical problems ensured it never happened :lol. It’s been a really fun ride and I have so many memories. Fun fact: I actually got the first site infraction because Kickback tested the function on my account :p Happy birthday Tokunation and thank you Kickback for making me a part of it from the very beginning. Here’s to many more years as we continue to grow better and better! |
Man it does not feel like 5 years have passed since I joined. And joined right around the time the site first went online.:eek:
|
This forum had been really great, although I am relatively new. The atmosphere is good and there's a lot of really helpful information. Here's to five more years and beyond!

Oh man. I remember the times of discussing Kamen Rider Decade over at TFW (Yeah) and wishing there was a whole board for this kind of thing. I figured there was, but it would basically be like walking to a group of strangers and acting like we're best friends should I have done so, so I never did.
At the announcement of TokuNation, I joined as soon as possible. It was great and everything I wanted. Fun fact: I almost picked the name "Ryuga," until last second where I thought "But people won't recognize me." I love hanging around this place, as evidenced by the next highest poster having 5000 less posts than me :lol Even when a year goes by and I don't watch any Toku (Ninnin/Drive/Dino Charge for example), I still wanna swing by and have fun with others. Here's to hoping I stop getting infractions~ |
Happy birthday you bastards. I love each and every one of you. Let's keep the Toku love spreading like VD and Lindsay Lohan.
|
If it wasn't for this site, I would have never gotten into Kamen Rider, or revitalized my interest in Power Rangers. I'm not nearly the Toku-nut I was a few years ago, but I'm still glad I stuck around, and thankful for this site.
Here's to another five, and more. |
I discover TN when I was starting to get into Kamen Rider in late 2012. I mostly lurk the forums, but decided to join late 2013. I love Japanese special effect movies and TV shows, but never watch much of Kamen Rider until 2012 when I saw W. I found out about TN when I use to post on Henshin Justice around late 2012.
Happy 5th Anniversary to the website. Glad that the site is still around. |
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TOKUNATION! Let's go get drunk!
But in all seriousness, congrats on keeping this train going for 5 years. |
Happy Birthday to Tokunation -- I've been here since the first week and it still remains my favorite tokusatsu discussion forum! Here's to 5 more, and more beyond that!
