Noticed this a while ago, but I haven't seen it on here:

The Magiranger summer movie was pretty much the Tom Cruise movie Legend, the one where Tim Curry is the devil and Tom Cruise goes on a hero's journey to rescue Sloane from Ferris Beuller's Day Off.

This might be out of topic, but the whole Coronavirus incident make me realize that the bugster virus incident in Kamen Rider Ex-aid was really dangerous.

Although to be fair, the Coronavirus doesn't go around physically besting the crap out of people. |
Ex-Aid could be surprisingly effective at portraying a pandemic at times; especially in the latter episodes.

Just a neat little detail I noticed in the latest Zero-One: Jin pulls the SlashRiser's trigger with a similar one-hooked-finger motion as when he used the ForceRiser.

I just saw the Kanji for Den-O for the first time and realized that it means Electric King.
|
Quote:
Den-O's motif its trains, right? The 'Den' part comes from the first kanji of 電王 (den sha), or 'electric train'. So yes, while it is literally 'Electric King', it's more appropriately 'Electric Train King'. This is one of those things that unfortunately gets lost in translation. |
Quote:
Also 電車 is densha. 電王 is Denou, or Den-O. I'm sure you probably just typed the wrong thing though, since both are relevant to the conversation. |
This might just be one of the worst ones yet... but I genuinely didn't realise until now that Kiwami Arms' head crest gets decoration behind it so that it becomes the series logo.

Gaim also wears it on his vest in Jimba Lemon form and more prominently on his chest in Kachidoki form. The Energy Riders also have theirs on their chest plate. |
I just realized that Kamen Rider and Super Sentai is actually older than Star Wars lololololol.

Kimba The White Lion is the big one I always think about when considering movies other studios "borrowed" from never thinking people would put it together. |
I can't quite explain it but Rampage Gatling has some kind of wordplay going on between gatling and gathering.

I don't know if this counts but I recently cannot stop myself from looking for the film crew in helmet reflections.

Also, I have a feeling that "gathering round" is a reference to bullet rounds, making it a pun on "gatling round". |
ZI-O II's two swords are the two hands in a watch/clock, and when he puts them together for the King Girigiri Slash, that's the hands striking 12 or whatever before coming down on the enemy.
I still don't think the Saikyo Girade should have had Zi-O's whole face on it. What a peculiar design decision... |
It took me months after finishing Gaim to realize the Kachidoki gun has a turntable because the lockseed was given to Kouta by a D J

I was today years old when I found out that Akira Hamada was not only Juzaburo Nanba in Kamen Rider Build...
https://i.imgur.com/F1YEhCw.jpg but also Mr. Titan in Kamen Rider Stronger, 42 years before. Wow. https://i.imgur.com/WqyunLg.jpg He also had a small role in Kamen Rider OOO as the director of a hospital; his surgeon daughter was used to create a Yummy. |

Still, that's pretty rad. Had no idea it was even him in any of those roles. |
I completely forgot what Fourze Rocket State's finisher was like, so I didn't realise until today that Zi-O Fourze Armour's finisher is a direct reference to it.
|
Just realized that OOO's super forms are meant to be opposites; PuToTyra is ice based whereas TaJaDol is fire based.
|
I just realized Kabuto's Hyper Form is asymmetrical. The right foot has extra armor plating.

Why? |

Also wow that is a good catch. Never would've noticed that. |

I always wonder if asymmetrical leg armor makes it harder for the suit actors to move and fight smoothly. I mean, most people can adjust pretty easily to having different amounts of weight on our arms like when we're carrying something, but it seems like different weight on the legs would throw you off.

Probably less of a realization and more an observation, and no guarantees that it's an accurate observation either, but...
I'm under the impression that the Undead in Blade were inspired by Pokemon, if only to a certain point. Undead represent actual animals, like Pokemon. Undead battle each other in a conflict known as "Battle Fight", not unlike a Pokemon Tournament. Undead are sealed away after losing a fight, like Pokemon. Undead is sealed by a card, but doesn't look like an artistic rendering of its true combat form. Instead, it looks like a stylized and semi-kitschy animal reminiscent of an actual Pokemon Card. The Sealing Stone, which seals Undead during a true "Battle Fight", is reminiscent of that annoying "Missing No" (if I remember the name right) from the old Pokemon Game Boy cartridges! |
So I was reading how Ultramen, as the grew older, their lights become stronger and so are their powers. And it makes sense why Taiga was given the Ultra bracelets to help enhance his finishers, because he was still young and not a strong as the veteran Ultras, thus he needed help in order to make his finishers stronger.
Plus it also makes more sense as to why older Ultraman doesn't rely on a stronger form, for an in-universe explanation. |

It's weird how whenever there's Japanese text in Power Rangers generally my eyes are drawn to it, I can't not notice it, similar with Sentai footage. It might just be that watching it as a kid is not the same as as an adult.
