LupinRanger VS PatRanger Episode 45- "Looking Forward To Christmas!" Discussion
 

While the PatRangers assist with a Christmas party, they recognize a Gangler in human disguise who has come to steal their food.

Cross dressing next week again. I honestly hope this filler like preview actually push forward the Id reveal. Although, it could be a gag and if it isn't, there isn't much time for episodes of dedicated dramatic reveals and distrusts.

This was a great Christmas episode. It parodied the tradition of eating fried chicken and cake for Christmas in Japan. Toku gaijin fans might not get the reference. I fully expect to see some gifs of the fight scene with the gangler vs Noel and Sakura where they thought they were being prepared for a meal. That was fucking hilarious.

Haruka Kudo continues to impress as an actress. She really has perfected the quirky young girl character with her facial reactions and body movements and hope to see her in Jdorama love comedies in the future.

What type of cake did Noel bring? Was it a Mont Blanc?

LOL Noel go between French and Japan by his train.

Also where kogure now ?
if my memory not wrong didn't Lupins mention that they didn't see him drink hot drinks or eat any food ? but then in ep 35 ...

Kogure doesn't patronize his own establishment. :D :D :D

Well, it's on the wtf Japan list for a while on click bait article and videos. One of the tamer ones actually. It's true and exaggerated along with other items such as pedophilia H loli obsession, maid cafe service, and other nsfw 18+ hotel and events. It's stereotypical that everyone are super formal, robotic, and nice with high pitch voice. Anyway, the cross dressing trope need to stop or tone down before it goes too far. We already done one already with pat. More rehash filler + possibly plot development that's end up being a tease or gag for another episode.

You've never lived or visited Japan in the winter huh. It's not exaggerated at all. Kfc for Christmas is huge. What's wrong with the other items? Akihabara is fun. The maid cafes and stores with anything and everything for otakus are there along with the biggest and best headphone store in the world.

It seems Keiichiro FINALLY know the Lupinrangers's true identities !!!!

And I just hope they'll later work together for real against the Gangler boss.

Oh C'MON!

Is this really the time for more stupid holiday-themed filler when we have 3 episodes left?!!

You do realize that Super Sentai has been doing these holiday themed episodes for YEARS now right? This is nothing new.

Also, there is 6 episodes left, not 3.

I haven't seen every Sentai, but I still have yet to see a Christmas episode that tops Kakuranger's.

I thought Ryuusouger's premiere is in March. Isn't that means LuPat still has a lot of episodes left?

LuPat has 6 episodes left, for a final runcount of 51, with a 4 week mini-series special deal featuring past Sentai alumni coming after, then Ryusouger.

Whether LuPat can save itself in the last 6 episodes remains to be seen.

Yeah another team up episodes will be really interesting. I still really curious to Gangler Boss's true abilities. He just showing his abilities in episode 14 when he uses super fast shuriken weapon...

Yeah, I really bored with filler right now. The comedy in this episode is not funny to me. The worst part in this episode is The Rangers are didn't trying to kill monster quickly. The Rangers are waiting the monster when the monster are need help from his friends. Seriously? After that, the Ranger are attacked by monster......

Next episode is crossdressing again...ugh...we already have Patrangrer crossdressing, why they make Lupinranger crossdressing too?

But...at least Keiichiro's investigation is very interesting.....

When Keiichiro confirm that Ganglers Human skin come from people who missing around the same times. I'm certain 100% that Zamigo&Kogure setup people mass disappear for Lupins vs Ganglers for collecting Lupin Collection.

I love that everyone thinks Keiichiro has finally figured things out, when the episode is pretty clearly gonna make it keep status quo by the end :lol

Anyway, this episode existed, that's about as much as I can say for it.

Next episode preview confirm that he finally figured out what going on.

about episode 45 again
I'm surprise that Sakuya or Noel didn't tell about Pato lost Satoru and ganglers human skin to Lupins.

To think about that did Noel know that when Lupin's lost their's loved ones or when their's become Lupinranger from Kogure ?

I guess he don't since he not know about Zamigo and how Lupin lost the loved ones until they tell him.

He even surprise about Zamigo have status double gold same with Destra.

It seems next episode the Patrangers won't make an attempt to arrest the Lupinrangers yet. Yet another filler-is episode next week. And it's 6 episodes left! They haven't even defeated Naria.

Man, you know how sometimes these shows will have episodes that seem really stupid at first but somehow transcend it to actually be highly entertaining?

This wasn't one of those episodes. This was a very painful ~24 minutes to sit through.

Also, I am going to be really salty if Keiichiro is the one to finally expose the Lupinrangers when Tsukasa has clearly been suspicious of them for months now.

didn't naria died at the of Zyuohger episode ? and again in return.

i'm not surprise if same happen with Gochu or she alive and become next gangler boss with make Patranger continue fighting them (She might get her collection back somehow).

So much lack of Christmas spirit in this thread. We all need to enjoy some chicken and salmon.

I think he meant Gauche, who is really similar to Naria in many ways.

I know that why i say she might have sane fate with Naria since Lupat write by same writer from zyuohger.

You mean this picture?

Wel, this one was bizarre enough to be the best episode of LuPat I've seen in a while. Something about it just worked for me. I think I just prefer Sentai filler when it does try to be so over-the-top, especialy for a christmas episode.

This wasn't that bad of an episode I enjoyed it. Though the monster wasn't much of a villain and I did like how Yellow tried to peak in the cake box and red tapped her to arm to say they were talking. Just seemed like it wasn't scripted to me and yes I have a hard time remembering names after seeing a fuck ton of shows.

That is the face you make when you finally get to piss after holding it in for hours.

Oh yeah I meant Gauche lol
