Here are my Super Sentai rankings from the summer in one, neat little group. As always, I look forward to your own opinions. Hopefully this will help people find a new series to watch. Here's to 45 more! #dinofury #cosmicfury #powerrangers #supersentai https://t.co/1rTohvu85L

...goddamnit, Gozyuger. That made me snort laugh. Well played invoking the Dairanger theme, dad joke-style in the dueling grandpas episode.

I haven't seen any future episode synopses. Is Sumino next? Are they actually doing what I hoped for and making Ryugi wait to be the last one to get his Tega Sword form? Neg him! That man is going to be ready to BURST. 💦#Gozyuger

Another, far less serious but still WTF thing about the whole Ninja Kidz Power Rangers foolishness... you're telling me they put a guy in a suit, at a desk, with a crystal ball and he's supposed to be Zedd? Not Ziktor/Grimlord from VR Troopers? 😒

The Ninja Kidz have failed Power Rangers. There's only one thing left to do. Time to call the Biokids to save us all. Cinema is back!!

I'll be frank. Any histrionics from me would be purely performative. Besides the obviously awful AI, this trailer was so soulless that I can't even pretend to be overtly negative. Much like most "new" things with the MMPR logo slapped on them nowadays; it's just occupying space.

I say this withOUT the utmost respect: I don't want to see the Power Rangers franchise contact Jenna or any of her siblings to "carry on his legacy". They only care about your wallet. It's sad but it's true.

There will never be another crew of more cracked out weirdos who should have gotten therapy and meds instead of superpowers. I love and miss them. ❤️💙💛🖤🩷🧡#DonBrothers

They worked their asses off to elevate awful material and fought against mediocrity to create representation. And "Dimensions in Danger" is NOT good. Too much Sentai footage, yet another Tommy wankfest, and fan favorites reduced to NPCs is not a quality anniversary special.

Next year is the 40th anniversary of Flashman and it still goes hard AF. 😤 Petition for more comically oversized weapons in Sentai. More Vol Weapons. More Rekka Daizantou. More EVERYTHING.

I understand that SPD was a bit hamstrung because Dekaranger went the episodic crime show route with Agent Abrella as the only throughline. But it felt like we were getting pieces of the Troobians instead of anything substantial. Omni, Gruumm, Mora, A-Squad... focus on SOMETHING.

Some folks are QT me to say, "Well, we have to gatekeep the actual racists, N*zis, transphobes, etc." Yes. I agree. I mean, I feel like that part was kind of implicit and didn't need to be said but I agree.

If I had a nickel for every time a Sentai anniversary season saved Kakuranger for last, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. #Gozyuger

Gatekeeping is insecurity. True love for toku means sharing it equally and unconditionally with everyone. Your voice isn't entitled to be louder due to your gender, race, ethnicity, etc. Everyone means EVERYONE. Welcome all voices. Amplify them. Don't silence them. 💚💛❤️💙🩷

So is Nem's prison outfit in this week's Kamen Rider Zeztz supposed to be a Revice reference? Like it's Revice colors and most of the show aired in 2022? Or am I just reading into things?

Or maybe most toku and anime fans are chill but, like all fandoms, they have some ignorant incels? I'm old. I got into anime when you had to buy DVDs to watch anything. Toku was nearly impossible. There's nothing wrong with wanting a genre to evolve beyond its fan service roots.

Why are you surprised? Stop treating women as marginalized statistics. If there's one thing you've make abundantly clear with every single one of your replies it's that you don't know a damn thing about women.

I hope the Sumino/Oto story has more legs. Otherwise, it was prophetic to discuss how women in toku are used as tools to facilitate men's character arcs right before the Rei/Rikuo/Sumino conflict ended with the lion's share (see what I did there?) of the focus on Rikuo. #Gozyuger

...or maybe this speaks to the issue of toku treating women as novelties who largely exist to develop male characters? And maybe that toxicity has bled into the fandom and you're dismissing "some folks" (women w/opinions) because you see them as lesser? Just spitballing here.

i'm very disappointed in how some in this fandom treat women who express anything besides just 100% positivity. even mild critiques are met with 'but that's just how things are, and we like it - so shut up or we'll mock you repeatedly' - surely we can do better than that?
