[Starman]

So this is a very rough concept I'm still working on, but I'm pretty attached to it, so thought I'd try to share some of what I got. So far, I got some concept art and a name.

Denchi Sentai Starman! (Battery Taskforce Starmen) or "Power Rangers: Energize!"

Basically, our Sentai Squad would have a two-part transformation device: a special belt with a star belt buckle that has a socket on it. The "Star Buckle" or something. Said socket is where the ranger shoves essentially a 9-Volt Battery into it, the "Star Battery". "Energize! Change!", or something like that, is what they'd say before transforming and doing the proper roll call.

Also, since green is my favorite, I'd like Green to be the team's leader. Which would be a really weird and dumb subversion purely because I like the color.

"Bringing Miracles to Reality! StarGreen!" The seemingly laid back and playful member of the team. I have an idea that after 10 episodes, he'd lose an arm and would be out of the fight for a little while, maybe 3 episodes or so. He'd get a robotic prosthetic and would shove his Star Battery into his prosthetic arm, which would of course have it's own Star built onto it. Despite being so playful, he's the one who works on most of the tech stuff.

"Burning Bright with Passion! StarRed!" Green's sister, a tomboy and an open pervert to men and women alike. I'd imagine that she'd blame herself for her brother's sudden condition before he returns to the fight. Is the team's muscle and the first one to jump into the fray of enemies.

"Vanguards of Humanity! StarBlue!" Green's best friend. Moody and apathetic and would also be going through the grief of letting Green down. I'd imagine he'd have an episode where he'd try to have Green's energy, but it's out of character for him. I'd expect some bonding between him and Red.

"Shining with Valor! StarYellow!" Suave and cool, a lady's man and a real charmer...or, at least, he thinks he is. He always fails in love, but he's a romantic. He loses a lot, but he also tries a lot. Is the type to try and hit on female monsters cause, you know, gotta shoot your shot. Might be the team's marksman.

"Standing for Righteousness! StarPink!" Quiet and calm, but hates it when people misgender him as a woman. Every word he says drips with sarcasm as he matches wits with Green. Is very empathetic to the rest of the team is the one who helps them with most of their internal drama.

"Raining Hope onto Despair! StarWhite!" Someone who'd hang out since episode 1 and would join as a 6th Ranger with Green's old Star Buckle and her own batteries. Red's best friend and confidant, usually telling her that, no, being a letch won't get anyone to like you. But is also super ditzy, but motherly.

"Powered by Justice! Denchi Sentai Starman!"



I'm not super sure on the colors. I like everything save for the color of the boots' toes, the face guard, and trunks. Not sure if they should be silver or gold. And, yeah, I know trunks is more of a convention of western superheroes, but I like the aesthetic.

And no idea what their enemies/monsters or mechs could be either. While typing, was thinking maybe a group of monsters that drain electricity and energy from cities/power plants, but not totally sure how they'd look. Also thought of some kind of Dinosaur theme, like a reference to fossil fuels, with maybe them having some mechanical augmentation that spits out smog or something.

Finally, gave them basic designs for their side weapons. I was thinking all of their weapons could be powered by other Star Batteries maybe. Or maybe all the Rangers would have to manage their power supplies and would need to watch out so their weapons and special moves don't drain their batteries.
