So Nadeshiko also fits with Fourze’s theme naming. Her human basis has the surname Misaki, shared with Yuriko Misaki, alias Stronger’s female equivalent Electro Wave Human Tackle. The forename Nadeshiko references the concept of Yamato Nadeshiko, or “the ideal woman”.

While I doubt it was planned at the time, the sudden Virgo scene ends up being important to Fourze’s novel, which I’ll discuss once it’s details become not spoiler-y (I don’t think it was planned because said novel was written a few years later, by a different writer to this movie).

And now for the actor trivia.

Sentai-lert!

In a strange case of this, Kannagi’s henchwoman is played by Sanae Hitomi, who was Toei’s main female suit performer in the 2000s (Within Rider, she was the suit actor for Shroud), and made an in-person appearance in Gekiranger 36 as a female thief named Lily (which considering she was the suit actress for that season’s Yellow Ranger, got funnier come the US adaptation).

And the Foundation X boss lady who barely shows up before being abruptly killed is played by Asuza Watanabe, better known as Miyuki Ozu/MagiMother in Magiranger.
