Now that you mention it, I notice Kobayashi's writing style started getting progressively darker and edgier and weirder after she finished OOO. Gobusters was relatively tame and not too extreme, but after that, it's like she tries to force her works to be more like Ryuki. I wonder what happened to cause such a dramatic change.

Anyway, I've been thinking about Revice's dinosaur motif, does anybody else think Toei is trying to ride the hype for the upcoming release of Horizon Forbidden West?

-Amazons -Garo Divine Flame -Jojo's bizarre adventure -Attack on titan However I don't know if this is actually a real trend or just a false assumption of a trend, I think she works more as a freelance writer now and it's possible studios are offering her writing positions on these shows rather than the other way around. She also does have a background with tonally darker shows on top of her skills woth more lighthearted series. So she may simply feel like branching out after years of mostly relatively lighthearted content It's hard to say for sure what's bringing her to the shows she's working on these days without a lot of insider knowledge, but it seems like she's just working on stuff she'd enjoy doing, so I'm glad for her, if.she ever wanted to come back to rider or sentai I'd be very excited, but she's earned a lot of respect in the tv screen writing world on Japan it seems, and she earned it, so she can work on whatever she wants to really. |

Just popping in to really say, I forgot that Kobayashi worked on The Carved Seal of Flames and Divine Flame.
Got to say though, real good work on both series and movie. Both being in my Top 6 of Garo Media which also includes 2 other Series and 2 other Movies oddly enough. |

Timeranger is, arguably, the darkest and edgiest Sentai series. I'd say she's always had a darker streak and that her light series -- Den-O, OOOs, and ToQger -- are the aberrations. |

I still need to watch that show sometime so I can finish the 90s.

The setup is great. Heck I would not be surprised if the writers of Goseiger and Ryusoulger declared that they took notes from Gingaman. Lost Galaxy borrowed from Gingaman as well for their setup somewhat too when dealing with the Red Ranger's personal quest.

But back to the topic at hand, I doubt that Kobayashi will ever spearhead another Toei toku series. I think her time in the head writer's chair, along with Inoue's (and perhaps Arakawa's -- IMO, Kiramager has some swansong vibes) has passed. They may come back for miniseries and movies and a couple episode here and there, but I'm hardpressed to believe we'll see any of them helm a mainline Rider or Sentai again.

You know exactly what I want to hear! I guess I'll just move Gingaman forward in my queue.

I hope we get some more official intel on Revice soon, like in the July scans or something.
