Something like that, yes.

We actually do know. The Legendary Morpher says "Summon, Sky Ship!" So it's called the Sky Ship...yeah, I know.

Some seem to fear that using the Dairangers as Alien Rangers is a frightening thought, but there is promise in the concept. Let me explain what my thinking would have been. Instead of Gosei giving them new powers, it would have been more prudent to have the Gokaiger team as a seperate group altogether, Ex-Rangers who turned to piracy and are forced to give their powers to Troy and the others. This explains the pirate team that Saban's crew may be trying to avoid as there may be no possibility to use pirates as a team of justice while still using past ranger powers. It is possible, though not definite, that NOT mentioning the pirate theme is a marketing decision. It is the Dairangers that are more perplexing. There was a minute degree of script evidence that they would be adapted and there was talk of them originally appearing in Lost Galaxy. One possible explanation, though unlikely to be used in this regard, is that they co-existed alongside the original Mighty Morphin' team and were called to Earth by Zordon to lend their assistance (namely, their zord designs) to help in the fight against Lord Zedd. During this period, they briefly met a human boy who would grow-up to be more significant now. This is pure rambling, but it still would have been interesting. At this rate, however, the pirate theme is moot and the Dairanger cameo may be one episode AT BEST!

"Wow, a mode even more powerful than ultra mode?"

"Yes, but just wait until you see Ultra Super mode."

I didn't know that when I posted. I have since seen the awful clip from Instagram. Honestly, yeah, that's a pretty lazy name. This makes me glad I have little interest in the US adaptations.

"What is it?"

"Why are the suits and the new megazord pirate themed?"

"Uhhhhhhhh....look, the ability to turn into past rangers!"

"You're not going to answer me are you?"

"You can turn into any team you want!"

If the suits don't give it away the Legendary Megazord sure does.

Now it's a non-issue for me cause I like the Gokaiger suits and mecha but the symbol on the chest which is two cutlasses crossed and a Ranger Key down the middle really looks like the Jolly Rodger and I tell kids who like Power Rangers that this season is pirate-themed and they go "Wow! Awesome!"

I think Saban's not acknowledging the pirate look but also kinda acknowledging it without saying anything. Or maybe I'm just reading too deep into it.

Side note: I'm liking that the suits are not just a power-up and they're own set of powers. Gives me hope they won't get tossed out at the end of the season.

I like to stress that Saban needs a new creative team, it's not hard to not acknowledge the pirate theme while still tipping the hat to it.

i.e: (the bold are the changes I've made to the lines said in the clip)

Gosei: It is finally time for you to tap into the infinite power that lines the walls of this command center.

*Morphers appear*

These will be your new morphers. With these and your new Ranger Keys, you will be able to unlock your Super Megaforce Mode!

Troy: A mode, even stronger than Ultra Mode!? Incredible!

Gosei: That's not all. The Powers you now possess were created by a group of space pirate who's home world have been destroyed by the "War Star". Those warriors have sacrificed their lives to bring me this power... The figures that line this command center are actually keys to unlocking that extraordinary power. By using them in your new morphers, you will gain access to Legendary Mode. Where you can tap into the special powers of all the Rangers that proceeded you. You will honor the fallen space pirate by using these powers to rid the universe of the War Star once and for all!

SEE, FIXED IT!

Is it okay to assume that sentai fans and power rangers fans together are grinding their teeth on the whetstone of rage and hate?

[GibsonKAGE]

IDK, it's like the Alien Rangers not being referred to as ninjas but because they share the powers of the other Rangers, it was kinda obvious that they were ninjas. So just someone mention it is all I'm asking for. It's kinda weird, just some random pirate ship out the woodwork.
