I haven't enjoyed SS in a few years, so is this series actually good enough for me to spend my money on?

tbh even if its a series I dont care for all that much, Im buying it. I am a completionist when it comes to Toku and Marvel. To say I own something we previously had to download though fansubs, on official discs, is awesome to me.

I will buy any Sentai series released in the US even the ones I despise just to support the franchise.

Maybe they will someday offer replacement covers that match with the suits?

Borders closed like 5 years ago.

Hastings owns Trade Smart around here and they were selling Zyu and Dai when they first came out.

EDIT: "Now of DVD" is probably not a great way to phrase that.

Cool cover art. I hope Shout can keep this up. Keep giving us more Super Sentai. All so hope they give us a 5th Mega Set one day.

Last year, we got both Zyuranger and Dairanger. Maybe we could be lucky enough to get Ohranger later this year too. I know fan subbers will be mad about it, but it's good to support the industry. If you live outside the US, you can always change the region coding on your computer or buy a region free DVD player to watch it.

Opps, sorry I meant to say Books-A-Million.

I doubt we'll get Ohranger this year. There was 11 months between Zyuranger's and Dairanger's release and they don't have a date for Kakuranger yet.

Only TV Nihon. The rest were happy to take their fan subs down.

Nihon didn't do Kakuranger, so they won't have any response to it, just a, "Hey, Shout has licensed Kaku, cool."

Shit.
I love Kakuranger. Now I need to put another DVD set on my "To get" list that just keeps growing and growing.
AND it features the suits? Goddammit.

Shoji · 01-23-2016, 06:04 PM

Awesome. I really needed some good news today and more Sentai on DVD definitely qualifies.

Klonoahedgehog · 01-23-2016, 06:12 PM

Is Kakuranger any good? I haven't seen it yet.
