I'm curious about the pecking order implied by the promotional images we've seen so far, heavily emphasizing and grouping together Red and Orange (Black and Blue secondarily), while Yellow, Pink, Green, and Silver hang out at the back together. I assume that green and pink were de-emphasized due to sexism, but I'm curious as to why Silver and Yellow seem to share that. I'm wondering whether Red will be the commander of both teams, or if Orange is his equal. I'm also wondering whether Yellow will be replaced by a female yellow hero over the course of the series. If there's one Sentai series that can afford to have a member die or (more likely) go evil, it's this one.
Then again, the grouping in couple of photos we've seen could also just be color balancing. Got to remember the target audience here. |

The male Rangers are empathized for the same reason as the male Avengers and Power Rangers are in the West because on average boys want boy toys. |

Hmmm..... I'm literally quite excited with this Kyuranger. Both their suit ad mecha designs are actually quite decent. The helmet in the ranger suit kinda obstructing the whole suit while the orbs in the Kyurenoh really mess everything's up. At least, the mecha wasn't as blocky and lackluster than Zyuohger. But, this is the point where I'm quite worried. I mean while most people say Kyuranger has overall good designs in most of the aspects, I'm quite worried how will the story go on. Despite many people lash out at Zyuohger, I really love it, more than even Ninninger or even Toqger to say. I mean good design doesn't really mean good stories. I'm going to wait for further scans and trailers before I fully decide.
I think Toei really needs someone who CAN write stories this time. I mean handling the plot where there's ton of Rangers isn't simple and we already HAVE 9 members in the first quarter for God's sake! Who knows what we will get later in the next quarters. Sorry guys, but I'm kinda negative in seeing Kyuranger since multi-members Sentai like this usually get ruined later, especially like Kyoryuger due to red-centric. I'm getting a feeling that we might get the same here.... I just hope that the Red ranger will be like Right or Yamato since those two are a more likable Red ranger, right? I'm also really intrigued to how they will handle the next toys? Will there be more Rangers? More support Mechas? An upgrades? Seeing that Kyuranger already crammed most of the Rangers and collectibles in the first quarter, I think they will add more support Mecha and one extra ranger like our usual tradition. I hope we will also get an equal upgrade for the teams, or at least a changeable upgrades later, like Hyper Toqger. On final note, I think we must reduce our hype a little. Not to be offensive, but recently, when we got a compromising design either for Super Sentai or Kamen Rider, we will end up disappointed later. Instead, a bad or decent design Sentai or Rider usually really shine in the story, like Zyuohger and recently Ex-Aid. Not to scare you guys, but I don't really want to hear that someone is praising the design a lot but later ends up lashing and cursing the Sentai later. |

And on the other side, female centric brands place the female characters in the forefront.

You seem to be under the mindset that the cast line up dictates who will watch it, and not who watches it that dictates the cast. I would love more female rangers, personally. But it is what it is. People need to stop pulling the social injustice card when anything gender-related pops up. |

Sorry if it was already mentioned (also sorry for using the PR terms, its easier for me), but how do the auxiliary zords we see come into play with the main 5 zords? Does that eagle become wings for the main 5 zord megazord? And what about those 2 humanoid ones, how do they combine with the other zords, do we know?
Also, I too am a bit dissapointed that these are once again ultra sylized animals. They look a lot like the ones on Geki Atsu dio with minimal transformation for megazord mode. |

edit:It's the seventh image, right at the bottom towards the right corner. Shows one combination of the lion mecha with the eagle and scorpion as arms and the humanoids as the legs, and another combination with the humanoids as the arms and the eagle and scorpion as the legs.

Awesome suit designs on the team, and the mecha for this season looks really cool. I loved the constellation theme for the Zodiarts back in Fourze, so this is tickling my fancy. Hell, I may go out of my way to try and pick up the DX mecha and even some figuarts of the team, I like them that much.

Or maybe we can all drop the overly PC mentality and just acknowledge that different genders actually do have different interests? Having a prodominently male cast does not make a show sexist any more than a prodominently white cast makes a show racist.

People need to stop pulling the social injustice card when anything gender-related pops up. Seriously this. Just so much this. Bad enough we get sooooo much whining for female riders solely so there is a female rider on the show. I'm all for stuff like Marika back in Gaim, it didn't feel forced or like they did it just to have a girl rider, and it worked.
