So this movie was my first experience with Fourze proper. I went to it because of Super Hero Taisen Z having Groundyne and Skydyne in supporting roles, and I wanted to see where they originally came from. My opinion… Hot take, but the Taisen did them better. Also, I thought the whole montage of getting the entire school to take and press an Astroswitch went on for a little too long, especially since it was halfway through the final battle and broke that up a little too much for my liking.

And like the W movie, I can do this.

Special Guest Alert

And quite a few at that. I’ll skip over Skydyne being DekaYellow since I’ve covered her back in the W thread, and go with the new characters.

First off, the Foundation X lady who shows up to Gamou’s abortive delivery (I don’t remember if she even has any lines, but if I were writing the script, the scene would end with her saying “you’re fired” to Gamou) is Ryo Narushima, aka Keiko Hayase, better known as Remi Hoshikawa/FiveYellow from Chikyu Sentai Fiveman and Flower Ninja Sakura of the Flowery Kunoichi Gang from Ninja Sentai Kakuranger.

The new teacher who gets a whole scene with Ohsugi that exists to foreshadow Fusion States is played by the latter’s actor’s comedy partner. I’m not sure what his character’s name is, so I can’t share the actor’s name.

Inga Blink’s Miki Haru was previously the lead of Cutie Honey: The Live, while Ken Nishida playing her late dad has had regular roles in everything Toku except Kamen Rider, namely Return of Ultraman, Space Sheriff Gavan and Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger.

And finally, Tsutomu Isobe voicing XVII was previously the voice of Madou Knight Wolzard in Magiranger and after Fourze the voice of Hashiriyan Underboss Grantu Risk in Boonboomger.
