They still use practical effects. Stuff like sparks are practical effects and Zyuohger used them for Zyuoh Eagle to Zyuoh Gorilla iirc

In the vein of the non-human rangers of Kyuranger such as Garu, Balance, Champ, Raptor, and Commander Dumplings, which Japanese voice actor would you like to see play a non-human ranger and which color?
I pick Tomokazu Seki who is a OG tokusatsu fan as the first non-human red ranger because... well, let's see. When your career is 24 years deep as of 2017 and your notable anime roles are Domon of G Gundam, Toji of Evangelion, Van of Escaflowne, Toya of Card Captor Sakura, Kenji/Tracey of Pokemon, Jiro/Kikaider in the Kikaider OVAs, Yzak in Gundam SEED, Sosuke in Full Metal Panic, Viewtiful Joe in Viewtiful Joe, Kenichi in World's Strongest Disciple Kenichi, Gilgamesh in Fate/Stay Night, Kanji in PERSONA 4, and your notable tokusatsu roles are Prince/Kaiser Buldont in Ohranger, Bibidebi in Megaranger, Grenfire in the Ultraman universe, and THE narrator + Mobirates + the greatest treasure in the universe from Gokaiger.... I dunno what will qualify. Also let us not forget that he loves tokusatsu so much he has contributed to these as well: He was Voicelugger Emerald in Voicelugger, a sentai spoof where the rangers are voice actors He was also Cosmo X, an indie(?) toku hero He was also a metal hero-esque character in the video game Evilzone AND! To commemorate the 35th anniversary of Kamen Rider he released a cover album where he cosplayed as the first 10 Showa Riders.

We could have references and allusions to the past sentais in the 2020's season like in Boukenger ?

When I was in Japan, I went to Toei Studio Kyoto Park, and there was a Kyuranger stage show that we watched. It was TONS of fun and it made me consider watching it. Now that Ex-Aid is over, and I'm missing Japan, I'm legitimately considering watching it. So...is it worth it? I'm normally not much of a Sentai guy, simply because it's so repetitive and there's so much CGI.

If you are patient person then give Kyuranger a try if not then don't watch it. The show is a rough ride that might not be worth it unless you are ready for some shit.

In what sense? The planet-hopping elements sounds fun. I don't really care about overall plot in Sentai, as long as the individual episodes are enjoyable. For example, Ninninger might not have had any plot, but each individual MOTW episode was pretty fun imo, and the action was great, so I ended up enjoying the series.

Yup, and it would be, but they stopped doing it after episode 4. They land on Earth then and pretty much just stay there. Although there are a few occasions where they still visit other planets every now and then it's definitely not a planet-hopping show.
It's more like: "We're space heroes who want to liberate the entire universe! Oh hey, this planet called "Earth" is in trouble and the bad guys care for it for some reason, guess we stay here now.". The premise sounds fun for sure, but they do next to nothing with it. You should still check it out because you've got a special bond with it which could make you fall in love with the show but I personally am quite disappointed with Kyuranger. Not just because of the lack of space travel, the show as whole leaves a lot to be desired IMO. |
