nobody wants to talk about samurai it seems

[Sentai Tamashii]

why talk about Samurai when we can talk Shinkenger? but seriously, if I have cable, I would probably watch Samurai, and I'm looking for a non-muscle costume of the Red Ranger for my son, size medium, if any of you have a lead, please let me know!!

I'd be a lot more keen on actually sitting down and watching Samurai if it wasn't such a carbon-copy of Shinkenger.

Apparently the second half is supposed to be diverging from the Shinkenger story line. I keep my fingers crossed, because I really want this show to turn out good in the end

I wouldn't count on that, T_D.

Before Samurai started, the actors were all asked, "How similar are your characters to the Shinkenger characters?"

They all stated, "Oh we're our own characters, for sure, we wear the same suits but we're not the same characters."

So far, they've been a literal English-speaking version of their Sentai counterparts both in suit and out of suit.

And considering the RPM team-up later on is rumored to not include the RPM Ranger actors at all, I have little faith that Samurai will be anything other than another Jonathon Tzachor nightmare. He's the worst thing to happen at Saban Brands.

Oh well, I still have hopes for Mega Force....

Honestly, I do think they'll be diverting a bit from Shinkenger with the usage of the Black Box. Last I heard they were going to do the Shogun Armor with that instead of the Giant Anime Trenchcoat mode.

I want to like Samurai but the acting is subpar compared to other things I watch it feels hard to get invested. I haven't watched Shinkenger yet so I'm not bothered by the same story since I haven't seen it before, I just want the characters to have more personality/be more likable.

Welcome to Nick.

Nick has nothing to do with it. It's Tzachor.
