Possible Zyuranger Cameo in Kyoryuger?

You know what's funny. The Zyurangers probably aren't held as high in Japan as they are over here. If someone in Japan read that the Zyurangers were coming back for a cameo appearance or getting their own movie they would probably just think "...Cool" and that would be the end of it.

Actually they are held pretty highly there. I've mentioned it before but not in this thread. Zyuranger revolutionized sentai in design, style and execution. Mecha suits gained better depth and detail, casting the old flat cardboard look of their predecessors. The 6th ranger dynamic was fully introduced after the brief X1 Mask from years earlier died after a single episode. The costumes tried something very different from the previous couple seasons as well.

Zyuranger is beloved by Japanese fans overall and still highly regarded by them for it's themes and action. That's a big part of why it was featured for Akibaraanger Season 2 and whether US fans would like to admit it or not a huge factor in the figuarts being released as well. Perhaps not the deciding factor but just as big a deal as the Power Rangers connection here.

Oh... well don't I look stupid.

Sweet, now if only Abaranger will get in on this, that means another reason for Saban to bring JDF back.

Haha! That would be pretty funny if Jason David Frank magically appeared, morphed in to all his Ranger incarnations, defeated the enemy, then disappeared in to the mist. Sounds like a great Akibaranger episode, actually.

So like Powerful Rangers meets a 10 year olds cheap fanfic?

Awesome, stupid and I'd watch the hell out of it.

If we ever do get Akibaranger over here, I see him making a few cameos, hell Im suprised he wasnt there for the "powerful rangers"

I'm seriously okay with this. A dinosaur themed sentai team-up!? Heck, yeah. I've actually just now been watching the Zyuranger show off YouTube even.

I have to wonder what would make the two teams work together as a plot device though. It's sad that the actress that played Bandora is deceased...would have been a cool idea right there.

ZeoRangerV · 09-13-2013, 05:20 PM

Like I said in the previous thread, I'm cool with the Zyurangers turning up as long as it doesn't stop the far more deserving Go-Busters team up happening.

Chikararanger · 09-13-2013, 05:36 PM

It would be cool if they do show up and Help fight but What about Abaranger. I would like to see King get some tips from Geki
