I think Saban did this to get in on the hype that is going on for that Robocop remake that's in progress. You know, choose a reference that older fans would understand, and hope that the younger audience will think it is cool. Considering that I'm in between, I shall say this- I don't like it either. Still gonna buy the 4 inch RoboKnight though, only, he will be GoseiKnight in my collection.

Well, there's your problem right there. Part of why I couldn't enjoy (or finish) Samurai because it seemed like it was literally frame by frame Shinkenger and that's not why I watch Power Rangers. Is it my fault? Actually yeah it is because it's only because of Shinkenger I could anticipate certain patterns and concepts, there was nothing new for me to anticipate. If you wanna watch Sentai...go watch Sentai.
Adaptation is what I look forward to every year. An adaptation of a show I shouldn't legally be downloading every week; in that sense, Saban doesn't really owe us anything but they're gonna be nice about it anyway via merchandise. At the end of the day you're never gonna please everyone, at least not at the same time. Last edited by Sentai; 03-29-2013 at 11:09 AM.. |

And, with a few snippets of dialogue, Sentai snapped.
BullBlack was given a Christian-Bale-Batman-before-The-Dark-Knight-ever-happened voice for Lost Galaxy. Yes, once Mike took over that changed but still... I'll at least watch the episode. And THEN I'll decide if RoboKnight is a complete disrespect to Super Sentai that trumps Operation Overdrive thrice. Until then, eh? Not bad but not great. Just okay. It meets the standards of "heroic." |

Well that's why I'm looking forward to season 2. I mean, I'm thankful he didn't adapt Alata's character type (which I know has an archetype name that I can't remember) because it was him and the rest of the cast I couldn't watch.
They direct translated the concepts which...is usually okay in some parts. But here's the thing, he didn't necessarily translate the story; angels, elemental tribes, el chupacabra... Yes it could've been easy to just make him a regular ancient dude with a normal voice but I liked robots as a kid, I'm sure kids still do. The weird thing about power rangers/sentai is it's always been about ancient powers and legends...that are still technologically more advanced in the modern world. So we'll wait and see how the episode plays out but it seems like they clearly don't want to make him Gosei Knight. And hey, guess what...you can watch Gosei Knight on old episodes from Goseiger!
