ngl I think Reiwa Sentai is just gonna do stuff that seems insane, banking on their ability to make it grow on us.

And then they'll suddenly drop a normal looking sentai here and there. Just to shake up the shake ups. XD

When you got more hits than misses, you can take a few wild shots here and there.

I thought it was more just because of COVID that we're now getting more suitmation characters and less human actors etc?

I'm surprised that Enya Rideon is the only Mecha to be introduced. I got my DX Enya Rideon from Hobby Search in the mail a few days ago, and I love it.

Without knowing the scope of Alters, it seems DonZenkaioh might be the only starting mecha in the show.

Could be.

yeah it can be the main mecha.

Granted, that would thoroughly lessen the Donbrothers as a team in and of themselves, but that possibility exists.

At first, but budget constraint sales low rating probably drive them use cheap easy disposable cgi. Actors are more expensive either way. It?s cheaper to do it this way. It might be a bad decision Depending on how fans see it soon in a few months.

Mo-cap still requires you to be on set, surrounded by several people. It doesn?t stop the spread of COVID any more than a suit chapter does.

Oh I see. I hope in a few years they can maybe get more human actors back though.

The use of cgi is mainly to save on materials iirc. Supply chain still isn't back to 100%

I understand that they won't be able to do as much in live-action anymore. I wouldn't put it past them to do something like Akibaranger's Grand Delusion Space so there's less filming on location and more green screen sets.

That being said, Don Zenkaioh feels more like something to use when the Donbrothers don't have their own gattai, or when they're teaming up with the Zenkaigers.

More rumors of DonBrothers and from what they say, is the 5 rangers are actually human and that the change in a sense is called Avatar change.

Description of the 5 human forms in the link.

You know, if this is true, I want either Hiroshi Miyauchi or Kenji Ohba for Kiji Brother. :lolol

I can already imagine Kijibrother doing Miyauchi's signature laugh.

Exactly. :lolol

Hello, Tokunation! First timer here. I want to ask a question: If Kamen Rider Revice has magazine scans for this month of February, when will the magazine scans for Avataro Sentai DonBrothers be released?

I don't know, just wait.

The official DonBrothers' press conference will be held on February 9th.

Good to know we have a conformation (I thought it was February 3rd)

Newest rumor is that the 6th is supposedly going to be a female. And that there might be a 7th.

first preview for the new series!

wow that's cool.

Based on the trailer, we can see that the CGI rangers (InuBrother and KijiBrothers) will have human forms, they transform into CGI rangers while the rest transform into live-action heroes.

So we got:
A rendition of Momotaro
High school student
Poet/Hipster/Philosopher
Fugitive
Salaryman

Yeah, feels very Inoue. :lolol

So humans essentially becoming digimon, or exaid riders?

wow for me i say humans essentially becoming Digimon like Digimon frontier.

I love how the photo showing the gear attached looks like Don Momotaro is checking on it.

Well that's one way to cut CGI costs. I appreciate how the belt carries over, to remind us that these are still the Donbrothers.

That's why the CG characters have suit actors.

Also, the MOTW are monster versions of past sentai's, like Another Riders in Zi-O.
This one's based on Ryusoulger. It's likely the train monster in the trailer is based on ToQger.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FLkgamcW...g&name=900x900

His name is Kishiryuki, which means Knight Dragon Oni. So it looks like the MOTWs will be Oni with resemblance to various mecha. I presume the ToQ-Oh monster will be called Resshaki.

I wouldn't really say mecha, but more on that certain teams motif. Like with Kishiryuki, it's knights, while Resshaki, it's trains.
Like if they do like a Uchuki, which would be based on Kyuranger, it would resemble something to do with space, like planets or a rocket.

If you look at Kishiryuki from the waist down though, it's very similar to Kishiryu Oh. And the train on Resshaki's chest is in the same position as Red Ressha.

Resshaki also looks very similar from the waist down. It looks like they're continuing the under-suit reuse for all the MOTW. Still, DonBrother villains doing what might amount to Another Sentai sounds really fun. It was a concept I thought Zenkaiger would do when it first started

Must be a Reiwa thing If they're reusing undersuits for a 3rd time in a row.
Still, I wonder how they would handle other monsters that have Sentais with multiple motifs, I mean yeah Kishiryuki is based on a dino Sentai, but It stood out with it's knight motif, just don't how they would make other monsters stand out like say, ninja themed Sentais
