I believe Ryusoulger's main writer had never done Toku before

Ryusoulger's yamaoka; kingohger's takano; bunbunger's tomioka. Most of the secondary writers in ryusoul and bunbun are sentai newbies

Oh, silly me. Heck, and I just reminded myself not too long ago that Boonboomger was written by someone who worked extensively on Pokemon prior to it. :lolol
With that said, would love to see more unfamiliar writers pen future shows.

Hmm, I see. So it's either Yamaoka, someone new or someone from even further in the past.

I liked Aikawa's previous work and would be cool with him, but I wonder if Toei would ever appoint him as head writer again after that whole Decade debacle, especially since this is an anniversary we're talking about.

Well, Takebe's doing Gavv and Ohmori retired from Toei, so I guess Shirakura might be a safe bet for producer.

A Sentai written by Muto could be pretty cool!

Yes. :rock:
Of course, it doesn't mean that it has to be grim-dark, but if it happens, I hope he goes with either the Liveman or Kyoryuger palette just so we can have a black ranger and a green ranger as part of the regular roster and he recycles the Dumb & Dumber bromance Kazumi and Gentoku had going with those two. :lolol

aw man I can?t wait for every episode to introduce a new toy they can sell that will never show up again and for the plot to only be entertaining because of a mystery box, leaving the ten episodes after the mystery is solved to be incredibly repetitive and unsatisfying

I didn?t like Build.

Anyway, animals feel weird for an anniversary season. I don?t think we know if it?s animals in general specifically so I think it would be funny if it just turned out to be a dog themed Sentai season.

Belated congrats on your 1500th post!

According to the rumors, Gozyuger is already going to be a Liveman/Go-Onger palette. And yeah, doesn't have to get too dark, since one of the things people love about Build is the comedy and how the characters keep high spirits and fight for love and peace despite all the terrible tragic stuff happening around them.

To be fair, that's more of a Bandai problem than a Muto problem. The writer is obliged to integrate the merchandise somehow, even if it means throwing a watch at a Rider's head. Some shows like Build just have more stuff to sell.

Liveman, Gaoranger and Zyuohger: "Are we a joke to you?"

Actually the safest theme. Other popular themes, such as ninjas, cars and dinosaurs, are still more fan themes. I mean, even in a group of friends, not everyone will enthusiastically talk about ninjas. The original spy/military motif is even more so. It's better to try something new in the post-anniversary year (especially since it already seems to me that the celebration will drag on for two seasons). In other hand everyone loves animals, even if some only love them on video and/or in toy form. Even the two recent super-popular Sentai that stopped the decline in sales are technically animal themed Sentai. So there is definitely logic in this choice.

No, but the name gojyuger is, for now, enough to speculate it to be an animal-themed team.

Oh yeah there are a bunch of animal themed anniversary seasons

I guess it just feels weird because it’s like, the 50th, you know? I was kind of expecting something a bit more avant-garde for the theme, something that really celebrates it. I think there are ways you can do that without just doing something like Gokaiger or Zenkaiger again, but I guess Zenkaiger was weird enough the don’t want to take the risk?

I dunno, it’s a little disappointing.
