I apologize for noticing "Ohsama" sounds a whole lot like one of the most infamous terrorists in modern history, in a way that was disrespectful.
I'm just dreading the potential future were the romanized name on merchandise is used to ridicule the tragic things that happened in the past and endure to this day, on both sides (I'm very much against the hate Muslims have to face on a daily basis), and to sully a franchise that stands for heroes who are supposed to make children happy. Of course the name existed as a Japanese word before. Of course the issue is nonexistent in its native language. Won't stop certain audiences from being awful about it though. I'm sure almost anything will offend someone. And not everyone will notice this association, without messages on the forum. Damn, yes, in my language these words are even written differently!

The show will forever be known King-Ohger, and people will always struggle to remember the first word, just like every other Sentai. ![]() |

Honestly, if this does end up as another Dinosaur Sentai, we'd have five Dino Sentai, so we could take one out of every team and make another Senai. Ha ha!
If not, at least we might get more Cape Rangers.

You want to bet Hasbro will at some point adapt this if true? Dinos always get adapted for Power Rangers.
Jurassic Park I started that. Any studio that adapts Power Rangers goes with dinos. Never fails. Caped Rangers Magi / Mystic Force is the only time for that to happen. I'd say we're due for another one.

I bet the lead ranger will be the self-proclaimed king who's the "best of the best" while the other four are "experts" of a specific thing.

Crazy idea: King-Ohger references specifically the Sentai with "Oh" in their name, but it's subtle, rather than having the Sentai actually be shown on their collectible items.

If their main robo doesn't use 'King' or 'Oh' as the suffix, we revolt. I want a stupidly redundant main robo name, it'd be funny. Don't know if that's just me, though, lol.

Given the passion for experimentation in recent years, I would not be surprised if they decide to make the red ranger the sixth. Given the king theme, the gold team leader is pretty logical, and red color is also historically anti-royal.
