Haha, funny that such a thing happened on both sides of the ocean!

Love to see Red and Pink using their iconic weapons as well!

It really did work out super well overall. Makes me wonder if Toei saw what A-Squad looked like and adjusted SWAT Mode accordingly.

Mora acting under Omni's spell is also creepy and she was already creepy before. Impressive work from the actress. Shadow Ranger is totally the MVP and most bad*ss here!

You know things have shifted when Mora threw away her doll.

Feels like Bridge changing to Blue came out of nowhere though, since there was no implication that he was in line for a promotion while Z and Syd stay the same.

I agree that Z and Syd probably should've been bumped up too, but hey, in the end, it made the gap for JJ to become Green eventually. Which is just thematically fitting.

I have to respect the producers of the Saban and Disney Eras for having to improvise with such limited information and yet still make a lot of great shows, while the producers of the Saban Brands Era had foresight yet often failed to take advantage of it.

Both formats have their ups and downs for sure. I imagine having all of the footage upfront is alot less stressful though.

For sure, it's heartwarming to know that at least Tommy got a happy ending, since JDF's ended in tragedy. Shame that PR is stuck in limbo right now, as I think it would've been interesting to see JJ become the new champion of the franchise in live action.

I've always said that were Zenkaiger to ever get adapted, that the lead character should be either JJ or JJ's' son(who was last seen in the Zeo Christmas episode).

I'm not familiar with this Lina Song person. She looks good as the female SPD Blue though.

Lina is a character who was original to Hyper Force. Long story short is that it was established that she became the new B-Squad Green soon after Sky and Bridge's' promotions. So I guess come the time of the comic she got promoted.
