So it was a Kamen Rider thing first. Didn't expect that!

OOO was the first one that actually sang. The first talking belt was Faiz's, but Ryuki's Dragvisor could talk before that.

Singing belts after that I can remember off the top of my head at the moment are Wizard's, Beast's, the Sengoku driver and some of the lockseeds to a certain extent (IE KNIGHT OF SPEAR) the Ghost Driver.

Yeah, the ones that have a little song over just talking - which I also love. It's just so bizarre, like - why? Why on Earth would a belt that opens a tesseract in reality (I'm assuming, they rarely say where this stuff is coming from) and equips the wearer with instruments of combat pump out a micro-pop song? It's almost perverse!

In an attempt to put the foe off-guard?

I don't know why, but I feel I don't really like some jingles for the current Drivers. I mean, we could take a look at OOO or Sengoku Driver. Both have a really fantastic sound without a very-forced rap in there, except for the Combos' announcement though. However, hearing Ghost and Gamer Driver's sound, I can't help but feel a bit uncomfortable. Since, I don't really like the rap-like announcement too much and fast on the driver. You could barely hear the proper articulation of the driver, especially if you hear the driver's sound at low quality. Instead, I think an form announcement accompanied with bgm is more cool to hear, like Drive Driver or Genesis Driver.

I'd say that, out of all of the jingle belts, the Gamer Driver makes the most sense. I mean, Gaim explained away it's aesthetic weirdness as Ryouma having an odd sense of humor. At least with Ex-Aid, when you started one of those old games that the GD is influenced by, you'd get a jingle and some sort of repetitive announcement. Regarding "rap" (I haven't heard it called that in a while) - well, hip hop is the dominant form of pop music today so, that they'd use it makes sense.

So, the only new Sentai I've seen is Ninninger and their changer does the same thing with the jingle - is this unique to them or do they all do it?

I gotta hand it to toku for just going for it with the toy / weapon synergy. It's so crass, yet so arty.

In recent years:
ToQger had just announcements (think train station tannoys, and it's that)
Kyoryuger had Samba Music, mixed with shouting Dinosaur names and Gaburincho
Go-Busters had the coolest sounding morphers ever- basically just morphing announcement and finishers
Gokai just shouted team names

Adding in music seems to be a new thing, as it is mostly just shouting Names and Gimicks

Yeah, the MMPR homage with the "It's Morphin Time" on a Sentai show that's about as un-MMPR as possible was an inspired choice!

Thanks!

Did they purposely reveal about Asuna being Poppi In First Episode of Ex-Aid?

I think they did that because they tried it with Ghost and it didn't work out well

Edith was Hermit was too obvious for grown up audience like us! We knew Edith was Hermit

That's right they did that with Ex-Aid. Maybe it was too obvious to be a mystery! I bet they got more mystery for Ex-Aid than Asuna being Poppi

So, do you guys think Toei will remake another Showa series like Amazonz? If so, which one would you want?

I would have said X, but Haruka kind of stole X's main weapon, so...
