Okay, I've been thinking about this for a while now. There's pretty much no way either series (Goseiger or Gokaiger) is going to get out of this without being horribly butchered, so I was wondering what edits could potentially be made to make the two series gel together better. Obviously this will never happen because it would require a ridiculous amount of newly-filmed footage, but I wanted to share it anyway.

Ranger cards.

We know the Megaforce is Goseiger, and since Goseiger is a much better match to the origins in terms of colour than Gokaiger it wouldn't be that farfetched an idea to have them be the ones to turn into past rangers. The tensouder already uses cards as a means of power, so the ranger keys could easily be turned into ranger cards. Bandai dumbing things down isn't a new thing, and I can imagine blindpacks of cards would be easier to market in bulk than ranger key sets (unless they blindpacked those, but that's a whole different story).

Like I say, the chances of it happening are next to nothing as it requires so much new footage and it also negates things like GokaiOh and the auxiliary mecha, but it was one of the first things that sprung to mind when we had the news that the two series would be combined.

Does anyone else have any crazy thoughts on how to "neatly" join these two relatively massive shows (especially Goseiger given the amount that goes on in it) into one?

Well, "Ranger Cards" already sorta exist due to Dice-O cards.

Make the various villains of Goseiger part of the Zangyack, and make it all their first wave of attacks. Then when the main forces attack, have them upgrade to the Gokaiger powers and go from there.

The main problem, as I see it, is how you justify certain powers getting used. Why would they use the Morphin Powers when say the Zeo Powers are specifically stated as being more powerful. It's a problem unique to Power Rangers, because a lot of the powers were compared in ways they were never originally meant to. It made sense for the Gokaigers to take on different Ranger powers, because it was assumed each set of Rangers were largely similar in skill and power. It's different for Power Rangers.

Still, I would like to go back to the MMPR days where characters spanned multiple seasons and storylines. It would be nice to get characters as memorable as Tommy or Adam (seriously, none of the new characters really have a chance at any kind of legacy since they're only around for one season).

Exactly, and they're still going (right?). Its the kind of thing I could see being marketed for longer in the West than the keys.

If you remember: Saban and Bandai have never met a dollar they didn't love.

I doubt they'll change the Henshin devices, for that very reason. We already saw the Tensouder in some promotional pictures of the rangers, remember. I doubt seriously they'd dump Gokai's either. Or change the keys.

It'll probally be just an upgrade. Like Zyu to Dai and then Dai to Kaku. My hope is when Go-Busters comes they keep this cast, and just give them another upgrade like the old days.

I already know I'm not getting the direct translation I wanted.

The Sadophone and the Engine souls both were used in their respective shows. The promo for the final bit of Samurai shows him using the Sadophone. And RPM did use the Souls, they just weren't called Souls.

I had a thought on the switch over from Megaforce to "Super" Megaforce:

What if at the end of the "1st Season", they lose to the Warstars? Forced to leave the Earth in shame, they travel to "some planet" where they learn that they need not follow the rules of "Heroism", and with that are granted the new "Super" (Gokai) powers. This way, they aren't bound by the laws (based on the original MMPR) that, will probably, be instilled in them like: "Don't attack first, only defend" and the like...

Just a thought...
