I'm surprised Saban even bothered to mention Corinth, what with their "Disney-era Rangers are scum and don't exist" attitude. Props for that, I suppose.

I'm excited the SPD episode is happening. It might sound like a given with PatStriker, but nothing is ever definite. I do wish someone from the original cast was appearing in that episode - SPD had an amazing cast. John Tui and Michelle Langstone would both be great.

I hope Super Megaforce doesn't get bogged down with fanservice and still tries to tell a story. This is the show's chance to be what In Space was for Turbo 2.0 - a chance to change the tone of the series, tell great stories, and let the cast members really shine.

its mainly only Jonath Zachor that hates the Disney Era so i heard every one else dont mind cause some of the worked form before the by back. also it be hard to ignore Disney at this point due to they needed 20 years of suits and kids that are still watching will remeber some disney era season as well

Somthing makes me think the 6th ranger has somthing to do with lost galaxy.
Like His name. I hope he's Leo's son.
I hope we get an air date soon.

A lot of interesting stuff here, although no sign of Vrak makes me sad.

Funny how the GaoLion and Machalcon tribute episodes are pretty much intact, but the MagiDragon and Patstriker ones are cut. Wonder how getting those powers will go down.

Oh wait, I already know.

Gosei: "Your courage has earned you a new power."

I won't argue my point because you've not seen all of Goseiger yet, but Megaforce didn't really do that because none of the "main" villains are actually THAT important.

Yeah but even speaking of the Warstar. Drake was basically cut out of the show entirely, despite doing a lot before his final battle. And his final battle came bafflingly late into the series, so it actually had no context, as the Rangers got beaten into the floor and didn't use their Ultra Modes and the show acted like we were just supposed to not notice.

And look at Dereputa, they smashed his story arc into pieces and played the thing in completely the wrong order and once again I think the show just expected us not to notice that from scene to scene he'd either have a scar or wouldn't.

And I know they aren't the main villains, but they are the main villains of their section, and Megaforce chose to make Drake more important villianwise than the Mutants who came after him (and way more important than he was in Goseiger), and yet they shot no new footage to make it make sense.

[SharpO]

"A Lion's Alliance" is the best name ever. Alliterative and a pun! It's like Nossan's writing the for the show

Perfect Storm sounds like such a filler episode but I'm wondering if it's the Ninja Storm tribute.

Shame it's not Noah and Gia swapping bodies, that actually would have made for some comedy with Jake stuck in between, not knowing who to mack on.

All in all, looks like Gokaiger, smells like Megaforce but I'm actually willing to give this more leeway in terms of plot.

They better not skip Basco, he was the only villain that did anything.

*Cracks knuckles* Let's do this.

Quote:

Super Megaforce
Gosei presents the Rangers with new Morphers that unlock a Super Mega Mode, which will allow them to access the powers of every previous team of Power Rangers.

First off, really generic title that's basically redundant, just like Super Samurai's episode "Super Samurai." I could have gladly accepted any other title, as long as it didn't sound as moronically dumb as this. Hell, call it "A New Beginning" or something like that and I would have been fine with it.

Second, from reading the other episode titles, it looks like either the Mystic Dragon power from Mystic Force either gets cut out entirely or is only shown for this one episode just to demonstrate what the Legendary Megazord is capable of.

Third, I REALLY wanna know how Gosei managed to get the previous teams' powers, because judging by the episode synopses, it sounds like the Armada's invaded Earth before and we never really knew about it. Or it could just be Saban bullshitting a backstory.

Fourth, speaking of Gosei, I'm assuming he and Tensou are fine now, despite Gosei's worried tone from the end of "End Game". Way to ruin the surprise, Saban.

Quote:

Earth Fights Back
While the rest of the team works with the civilians to rebuild their city, Troy stumbles upon a plot by the Armada to launch missiles at major cities throughout the world.

I'm assuming this is using footage from Gokaiger episode 5, the Dekaranger episode. Oh, I can see it now. "Rangers, your courage blah blah blah here's the great power of SPD."

Quote:

Blue Saber Saga
After being humiliated in battle by a master swordsman monster, Noah suffers a crisis of confidence and questions his worthiness as a Ranger.

I'm sorry, didn't we already have an episode like this back in Megaforce? Didn't Noah learn about confidence back in episode three of that season? Looks like either he developed Aesop Amnesia or Saban did.

Quote:

A Lion’s Alliance
Determined to strengthen their defense against the Armada, the Rangers head to a mystical airborne island named Animaria in search of the wild yet powerful Red Lion Zord.

Gokaiger episode 9, the Gaoranger episode. Too bad there's been no news on any Wild Force actors returning for this episode, unless Rick Medina decides to reprise his role as Cole.

Quote:

Samurai Surprise
When a powerful monster named Matacore is sent by the emperor to take on the Rangers, they face a challenge like never before. Luckily, help comes in the form of a mysterious Samurai visitor.

Gokaiger episodes 11 and 12, the Shinkenger two-parter episode. Honestly, I want to see which actor will show the least amount of emotion, Jayden's or Troy's.

Quote:

Spirit of the Tiger
When the Rangers face a monster with a magnetic power to wrench their weapons away from them, Jake and Emma turn to quiet local Zoo Keeper named Casey to learn a special form of martial arts that helps them channel their personal animal spirits.

Gokaiger episode 7, the Gekiranger episode. I find it rather odd how Casey wound up as a zookeeper instead of expanding the Pai Zhuq academy to other cities or something like that and teaching martial arts to kids.

Quote:

Silver Lining, Part 1
The Rangers are shocked and mystified when they discover the presence of a new Silver Ranger. Is this strange new visitor an ally or a foe?

Gokaiger episode 17, Gokai Silver's debut. See, this title actually sounds clever, unlike "Super Megaforce"!

Quote:

Silver Lining, Part 2
Orion, the mysterious Silver Ranger, explains his past to Gosei and the Rangers and how he obtained the Silver Ranger Key.

Gokaiger episode 18, Gokai Silver joining the team and Gozyujin's debut. I was really hoping that the name Zador would be retained, but I have to agree with a few others, Orion sounds like he may have ties to the Lost Galaxy team in some way. Hmm...explanation of the Dairanger suits?

Quote:

Power of Six
When his Ranger teammates are sidelined by an energy-sucking monster, Jake must put aside his jealousy of Orion and help him use the combined power of the past Sixth Rangers to defeat this terrible foe.

Gokaiger episode 19, Gokai Silver's Gold Mode debut. I really wonder how they're going to explain Robo Knight's face on his armor when it would have made much more sense to put Titanium Ranger's face there instead. But this is Saban, Sentai footage over American footage for him. That, and there have been no news of any of the Rangers becoming Titanium Ranger, so there's that.

Quote:

The Perfect Storm
The Rangers are sidetracked from their fight against an invading monster when Tensou is struck by lightning, develops amnesia and wanders away from the Command Center.

Gokaiger episodes 25 and 26, the Hurricanger two-parter episode. Why? The title. We KNOW it's going to be the great power of Ninja Storm.

Quote:

Love Is In the Air
When a love potion accidentally makes the evil Levira fall in love with Jake, a jealous alien targets him for destruction.

Gokaiger episode 14, the Carranger episode. Kind of obvious.

Quote:

The Grass is Always Greener or Bluer
Jake and Noah find themselves literally standing in each other’s shoes when a body-swapping monster named Tranceferer switches the two Rangers so that they are inhabiting each other’s body.

Gokaiger episode 27, the episode where Gokai Green and Gokai Yellow switch bodies. It makes sense to have Green and Blue switch instead, though it would be really funny to see Jake and Gia switch bodies. So many jokes could be made there, but I respect the change.

Quote:

In the Driver’s Seat
Lured away from Earth to investigate an emergency signal from Corinth, the Rangers discover they’ve been trapped in the alternate dimension by Professor Cog, who attacks Earth in their absence. Their only hope to get back home lies with the wild Turbo Falcon Zord, who they must tame in order to return to their dimension and save Earth.

Gokaiger episodes 35 and 36, the Go-Onger two-parter episode. From what other members have said about the Samurai/RPM "team-up", Clash of the Red Rangers, I'm assuming that was awful in every aspect as far as the RPM half is concerned. So I'm going to assume that this episode will probably give RPM about as much respect as Tzachor gives the Disney seasons.

So no respect at all, then.

Quote:

All Hail Prince Vekar
The Rangers finally battle the evil Prince Vekar face to face when he comes to Earth armed with his very own Megazord.

Gokaiger episodes 37 and 38, the Kanzen Gokaioh two-parter episode.

So out of all the episode synopses we've heard so far, there's been no mention of Vrak, Robo Knight, whether or not Basco will be adapted, or the fate of the Gosei Zords. I'm assuming that episodes 15-19 will explain this, but as of right now, my interest in Super Megaforce has taken a nosedive. The only reason I'm going to watch the next season is so that I can see how badly Saban will screw it up.

I'm starting to think Disney should have held on to the Power Rangers franchise a wee bit longer.

You're blaming Saban for a leaked episode synopsis?

[OmniKhaos]

I think everyone here is missing the point...the "Power Rangers" brand...toys, shows, etc...are geared towards younglings.
The vast majority of which don't know that Sentai/Super Sentai even exists yet and therefore don't compare the way we do.

The fact that we all watch the Sentai series and then follow up with the PR series is mainly due to the fact that most of us grew up watching the PR series first and found the Sentai series later.

Fact: The Sentai Series, toys, etc, will always be superior to that of their PR counterparts.

There are reasons I don't watch EVERY new version of shows that I grew up with...Thundercats, Voltron, TMNT, etc...the new ones are crap by comparison...they just have better animations now.

Goseiger was a masterpiece in comparison to Megaforce
Gokaiger was, IMO, WAY better than Goseiger
I know that Super Megaforce is going to suck...but I'm gonna watch it anyway...just a sucker like that...heh

[Electric Turahk]

I think the only thing that is disappointing about all of this is that it does seem like Basco is indeed being cut.
