Which Sentai would have the possible potential to become Power Rangers right after Cosmic Fury?

Kiramager would definitely be the most safe option. If not that, then most likely Zyuohger. Regardless, I'd want them to save Zenkaiger for the 35th Anniversary.

I don't know how well King-Ohger would translate given all of the CGI backgrounds that would be really hard to match with New Zealand footage.

I heard there'll be no adaptations after Cosmic Fury.

If there is any more sdaptations, Zyuoh and Kiramei are the only ones I could see being at all viable. At this point I'd rather Hasbro just make their own stuff though.

That's the popular rumor, but it's still just a rumor. The success or failure of Cosmic Fury will greatly determine the overall future of the franchise from the sound of things. Hasbro probably wants to cut the existing ties with Toei, and it probably needs to in some capacity, but everything may hinge on CF!
Personally, I can learn to live with either outcome. I believe any Sentai can be adapted, even ToQger and LuPat. It's the nature of the adaptation and whether faith to the source material is right for the times or whether a wholly original story that deviates heavily from the source material is right for the times. The benefits of a wholly original story unencumbered by a pre-existing Sentai or its footage makes things new and exciting again, with twists you may or may not see coming. Power Rangers was able to succeed partly because it was new and exciting and you didn't always know what to expect, especially in the old days, because you didn't have access to the source material! If you know how a Sentai will occur when the adaptation is announced, then you start wondering how faithful they'll be while still accepting a familiarity with the designs and footage that you've already technically seen (assuming that one sees the Sentai an adaptation is based off of first, of course). If they do a show which decides to distance itself from pre-existing Sentai footage, then you won't quite know how it goes until someone sees it and starts reviewing it. It's the same with any of the recent fan favorite shows, be it Mandalorian or Succession or Picard or Stranger Things. There isn't much, if anything, that they're based off of so you don't always know how it'll go or the outcomes of battles/confrontations. There might be a classic trope or film reference that served as inspiration, of course, but that isn't necessarily the same as "recycling" footage from a show that already aired in Japan. I hate the "not knowing", but I see certain benefits. That said, I also hate the fact that useable Sentai are being ignored so blatantly! That's hours of useable footage and story-rich design concepts to pull from. Distribution of the Sentai Original is far more likely to occur with one that has been adapted. That said, if Hasbro does its own thing, then that might create a "gap" and a means for Toei to compete with Tsuburaya who is thus far succeeding with their push to distribute Ultraman in the West. Hiccups bound, of course, but that's to be expected (most especially in the post-COVID environment). There is, however, another winkle. There is the possibility that CF, while nominally based off of Kyuranger, is going to follow the recent trend of cherry-picking different aspects of different unused Sentai. Dino Fury made use of Madame Noir as Void Queen. The possibility definitely still exists for similar circumstances, especially since the suits are largely original. These arguments may all be for naught if they pilfer too much, rendering any adaptation of unused Sentai moot. I personally thought a ToQger adaptation would've been predicated around Madame Noir from the beginning. Dino Fury forced me to rethink that presumption (though only by a small tad). This is why either option can work. Cause, like most everything on this Earth, there are pros and cons to either outcome. CF is an experiment. Always remember that. It's our reactions and the overall financial outcome that will define our future and the future of the Power Rangers. Last edited by TokuKnight89; 05-03-2023 at 01:46 AM.. |

We should also not forget about the black computer blood splashing in all directions, which, it seems to me, is too much for PR. And I don?t think that their specialists will be able to skillfully cover it up on all frames. Of course, there is an option to say that sanagim are robots, and their blood is engine oil.

Zyuohger (2024-2025) -> LupinPatren (2026-2027) -> Zenkaiger (2028-2029) Hopefully 4 years will be enough time for Bennett to change his mind about his unfortunate statement. Quote:

The immediate benefits of original footage, both for Cosmic Fury and for any Non-Sentai PR which may or may not occur in the future:
- No need to worry about location matching. A place in Japan won't always match a place in New Zealand or California. - No need to edit a Sentai battle. Every PR has cut out aspects of a Sentai fight, but recent PR has cheaply slowed the footage down from its original frame rate. We've seen both of these addressed before. Season 3 used Ninja Rangers and less Sentai footage for some time. Alien Rangers were brought in so they could cut costs by relying on the Sentai footage again. Disney constantly used original battles with and without Battlizer and Motorcycle stock footage to control the content and input more imagination. It's not that we haven't actually seen something like Cosmic Fury before, but it's not been done in awhile and probably not to the same precise extent that we'll ultimately see. |
