That sounds like a really cool idea Fish, especially now I'm watching more! I would've watched Goranger earlier but put it off because I wasn't sure if it was all subbed and Battle Fever J is more typical in terms of series length but I will try and marathon it eventually, I mean it's shorter than MMPR and personally appears more enjoyable to me!
Sorry to bring down the mood, but I finally finished GoGo5 last night. Wow, what a chore. I gathered I wouldn't absolutely love it and bad sentai is still watchable for me but IMO I found Matoi actually quite obnoxious whereas Carter's worst crime seemed to be more just being a bit boring and the ''70s Rainbow presenter'' look not doing him many favours and GoYellow, perhaps unsurprisingly, wasn't as sufficiently ''crazy'' as Gao vs SS painted him to be but on the positive I have at least now technically finished a quarter of a century of Sentai (1996-2020) and that is still an achievement, plus it can be easy to miss the good points, at least the ending theme was pretty cool and I did entertain myself by imagining how the dub voices could be! The phrase I will possibly remember most from the show though: You accursed GoGo5! |

Will people doing their own watch threads be allowed to comment on the reviews when you get to the season that are their subjects.

Man... I remember watching Goranger's first few episodes a couple years back and being absolutely enamoured with them in that special way only Showa can manage. That watch unfortunately fell through and I intended to rewatch them this year alongside Zenkaiger before I got this huge impulse to watch Dynaman... and y'know what? Maybe I still will! Everything you've said here is on point for how much I loved watching this show and it's just so lovely and fun.
I gotta admit too that seeing you go on about the designs was so... great? good? cathartic for me? Because I still consider them the best Sentai designs to this day, despite the many many winners the franchise has pushed out since! You just really can't go wrong with their aesthetic, and that's why the Goriders are some of the best ever

I'm basically trying to do a little sampler of the whole franchise, so having no context at all might actually be a really good position to be in. Hopefully, anyway! I'd be extremely flattered if I managed to get someone legitimately interested in a show doing this. Quote:

I found the bold definiteness of the statement "THE YELLOW RANGER LIKES CURRY" to be highly amusing.
If, in some imaginary scenario necessitating subterfuge, I ever had to give someone a sort of secret phrase to indicate that we are we all above board, I would definitely pick this statement. Quote:

You can do an infinite number of arrangements of that – lots of variations in new aesthetics or with additional motifs that make for great character designs in their own right, but I don't think, in nearly half a century of this franchise existing, there has a been a single team to come along and contribute something that was adopted as a new fundamental part of the "language", as it were. Because why would they need to, right?

Yeah, it's a very loveable trait, though it's never portrayed with such earnestness as it is here, I feel. |
