we've been rewatching zenkaiger

[obstinaterixatrix]

we’re watching the saber zenkai crossover movie and they fucking got me with fujioka cameo, he detransformed and said a line about rider and sentai living beyond ishinomori and I burst into tears. they got me with the precision grandpa strike.

what're, like, your sentai recs? i've mostly gotten recommended carranger, kiramager (or was it magiranger?), and eiher changeman or flashman, and the only series i've SEEN is Donbrothers. which. uh. help

I'm actually not as versed in sentai, which I am gradually changing but 50 ep series are very long. my absolutely top pick much watch shows are:

Ressha Sentai ToQger: REALLY LOVE THIS SERIES!!! SUPER FUN DYNAMIC OF CHILDHOOD FRIENDS!!!! THE 6TH RANGER IS MY FAVE OF ALL TIME!!!!!! GENUINELY COMPELLING OVERARCHING PLOT WITH VERY WELL-PACED DEVELOPMENTS!!!!! THE VILLAIN POLITICS ARE REALLY INTERESTING AND THERE ARE A LOT OF VIBES!!!!!!! THE AESTHETIC IS REALLY GOOD!!!!!!!! MADAME NOIR IS THERE!!!!!!!!! MISS KOBAYASHI WROTE IT!!!!!!!!!! genuinely while watching the show there's a lot of moments where I go. wow. I'm glad kids watched this, there's a very positive message that's delivered in a gentle, kind, and entertaining way.

Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger: super fun. SUPER fun. all of the characters are lovable dumbasses in varying and overlapping flavors. everyone has super strong Just Some Guy energy and it's really interesting to have the majority of the sentai team be suit actors. I think one of the staff said something to the effect of the zenkaiger team being basically a team of losers and they are and it's very endearing. I also really like the writing here, not only is it REALLY funny, there's a lot of good drama with family stuff and one of the antagonists accidentally adopting himself to the main character's grandma, and the space pirates are also there being a nuisance. in general there's a really good variety of dynamics. Miss Komura is the lead writer if I remember right.

I'm in the middle of watching kaizoku sentai gokaiger right now, which is really entertaining. miss komura described the pirates in zenkai as 'pirates playing at being heroes' and the gokais as 'heroes playing at being pirates' and she's so right. the gokais are all like heh!!! we're pirates!!! we don't care about anyone but ourselves!!! and then they go and do stuff like pawn their jewelry so they can pay for meals at a restaurant

hey remember in zenkai when stacey just woke up in a karaoke room where stacey thought was playing on the tv, like, the mv and all. that was so inexplicable.

[obstinaterixatrix]

THATS NOT A MAGICAL BOY THAT’S SENTAI!!!! THOSE ARE HENSHIN GUYS!!! YOUR INCLUSION CRITERIA IS WACK

it’s ok… he’d want you to sparkle on and be yourself anyways……….

you’re right… he would. everybody say thank you kaito

fiiiinally finished zenkai after putting it off for like a month….. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 zenkai good

[obstinaterixatrix]

miss komura…… I never got to see how bloodthirsty she could be, was kind of fun watching the villains eat shit and, like, Die. stacy and zox vs barashita had everyone in chat like “kill your dad! kill your dad! kill your dad!” and he did :)
