That sounds really good, shame it isn't what we got

This outline would've been a vast improvement. While the Shinkenger story elements are certainly present, there's significant new details in character models that would've meant having actual interesting Samurai Rangers and (ideally) less copy-paste dialogue in each fight.

Damn Tzachor. (somebody had to say it)

I guess the choices they made were done for a reason, but I'd have enjoyed a series like this

Honestly, Tzachor probably thinks young kids are stupid, and don't care about the old rangers. The fact the thought never occurred to him to bring in past rangers in the show that uses nearly all of the past rangers, seems to indicate that train of thought.

So wait. We missed out on a great series, and Txachor didnt even want to do an anniversary episode? The hell? I think Im just gonna give up on this until someone else comes in. Glad Ive got Riders to give my money to.

Wow so we could have gotten an explanation to the Samurai Rangers' Japanese heritage and blatant lack thereof with the exception of Mia Watanabe?

Yeah, that's my main issue with the initial concept of Samurai: no explanation as to how 4 of these people are descended from ancient samurai. The rest of Samurai's problems I just Riff on, like Emily's odd "A beetle came out of that disk!" and "He's so shiny!"

It's just a rumor based on some whispers from the inner circle productions of Power Rangers.

Tzachor was ordered to bring in new writers after the negative backlash from the first half of Power Rangers Samurai. Thus, we got better stories in Power Rangers Super Samurai, and that staff was kept on for Power Rangers Megaforce. But with the Gokaiger adaption coming for Super Megaforce, the writers that were brought on were let go, and the original Samurai (aka "lolz re-write Shinkenger with American names!") writing crew was brought back for Super Megaforce.

Apparently, again through word of mouth, Tzachor had no intentions of writing an anniversary episode. It took the marketing team of Saban Brands, after heavily promoting Power Rangers 20, to step in and more or less demand an anniversary episode. So with absolutely little to no budget remaining, Tzachor's crew sent out invites to the non-Disney seasons with more or less an "idea" of who they wanted to bring back (ie: Tzachor's more favorite actors/actresses) ... and we have "Legendary Battle", a 22 minute, "your favorite Power Ranger has 3 lines" episode.

Once again, a brilliant story idea by Amit Bhaumik gets shitcanned in favor of something more subpar.

TZACHOR.

Dear Haim Saban: REHIRE AMIT BHAUMIK AND MAKE HIM THE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER!

[goldblade6]

Yeah, Amit's storyline would only have been like A MILLION times better than the $#!% we got.

[Matrixbeast]

You know what's the most disappointing?
As long as the toys sell even "Decently", the series will be called a huge success, and Tzachor will be brought back again, and again, and again.
