Okay I’m lazy and didn’t feel like making three seperate threads for the three movies, but all of them have been subbed by “Totally not TV-Nihon” and are available to download on Nyaa.
Now for my individual opinions. Kiramager: Like I said in the main Sentai watch thread, it’s a pretty good movie that was worth the wait and I like that unlike Zero-One, they didn’t have the inexplicable need to change the movie’s place in continuity. It can still slot in around its intended release date with no problem. Ryusoulger: Okay, this has the lowest budget of the three, which it exemplifies by having a monster that looks like a regular human that can nullify the Change RyuSouls, but it does put Nada, the weakest in terms of fighting skills in the spotlight, by bringing up the Gaisoulg armour’s ability to absorb negative emotions. No wonder they killed him off, since he’d end every plot of the week in 5 minutes with that power. Zenkaiger: A full review of this will be coming tomorrow, as part of a special instalment of “Androzani’s Tsukai Detour” in the watch thread. Look out for it. |

I just watched all three movies and I also have individual opinions.
Firstly, the Zenkaigers' introductory movie, All Sentai Great Parade. I've mentioned it before, but I appreciate that Patren 1 showed up alongside the other Red Rangers and positioned very prominently at the front as well. I usually don't mind fourth wall breaks but Kaito saying their adventure is about to start on March 7th is confusing when this movie canonically takes place in April. Bebop Dream doesn't play much of a part in the overall plot of Kiramager, but it's necessary to tie up the loose end of Minjo, who wants to avenge her big sis Numajo. I recall Minjo's actress is a Changeman fan, a show I haven't seen yet but will eventually. I was expecting Memory of Soulmates to take place after the show but surprisingly it takes place between Nada's redemption and death, which means Nada is still dead, sadly. For a franchise where revivals are quite common, it's easy to forget that in Ryusoulger, people who die generally stay dead. It's narrated from Koh's perspective reminiscing about their brief time as a group of 7. So the Soulmates in the title probably refers to Nada in-universe and also Kinjo, to whose memory the movie is dedicated. It's bittersweet, as you'd expect, reminding you that these amazing people aren't coming back, while staying true to the show's theme of legacy. By making our souls one, their dreams can be carried in to the future and those little moments of happiness they gave us can bring strength and courage. Leave it to Ryusoulger to give me more to talk about in 15 minutes than the other two movies could in 30! Pretty sure there was a tear in my eye at one point.
