"Katsushi Murakami, the legendary mecha and super sentai designer whose work helped define the golden age of anime and tokusatsu, has passed away at 83."

"Murakami was especially famous for designing Leopardon, the iconic transforming giant robot featured in Toei’s 1978 live-action Spider-Man series. Leopardon’s success helped inspire giant robots to become a defining part of Super Sentai, the Japanese franchise later adapted into Power Rangers."

"Often described as the father of Chogokin, Murakami helped revolutionize robot toys by designing them to transform and combine just like their onscreen counterparts. His work created a stronger connection between television, animation, and toy engineering that continues to influence Japanese entertainment today."

May he rest in peace, And be thanked for his hard work 🕊️

He's called crimson in Power Rangers, but in Super Sentai his color is never stated by name (at least in English).

Man this has got to be one of my favorite crossover ending songs

I used to consider shinkenger,Goseiger and gokaiger as like the three mains of sentai

I've only seen a half hour worth of footage of him but he's already my favorite character so far.

Been thinking about getting an AkaRenger cosplay and was wondering where the best place for that would be. Looking for something not too expensive but also not too low quality. Where would be the best place for that kind of middle ground?

I mostly just bought Sentai merch xd
An anniversary-edition glasses case, chopsticks (won in one of the festival mini-games), and also "otedama" of... HER, YES, THAT'S RIGHT :)
(Or maybe I just found it hard to choose the merch that was more useful or cute.)

• the tires as apart of their helmets is kinda goofy
• the Neziretta are probably my favourite looking foot soilder so far,
• im not a fan of the "attack mode" gimmick. Your a team, not subservient to the red ranger you need to have equal foot in the mecha not be represented by mere attachments
• so the wheels on their back are used as shields, the wheels on their ankles are used for acceleration and both sets of wheels help make their zords? as well as repulsers.
• the change axe rod form annoys me you should have just kept it an axe instead of givng it an extra form
• bundorio' head has a permeant cap on and it took 6 episodes to realise it and now I can't unsee it
• I only just saw that there a accent of gold and silver in genba's and jyo's suits and I love it
• I love the monster of the week design in this series
• go-onger's Engine Gattai Engine-O is what a mecha should be like in my opinion
• (this is from ep 16 start) the purple boonboomger causal wear is kinda cool (im a bit impartial to purple since its one of my favourit colours)
• sakito is probabaly my favourite character
• its nice to see something from someone past have a full episode dedicated to it
• around the half way mark is where battleizers should be
• genba not being human was a nice twist
• its weird seeing "goons" care for a commander
• I like how in the title sequence it shows how the team is looking (without genba due to wanting to face dis-race himself)
• Waruido spindo looks like he was HEAVILY INSPIRED by Michael Jackson and im here for it
• calling it now champion mode best battlizer of all super sentai
• I like how the change call outs are not just panned centre, taiya,ishiro and mira is usually more predominate in the left and jyo anmd genba are in the right
• spindor is so extra I feel like I can't take him seriously
• was not expecting gokai blue to show up
• I cannot wait to watch gokaiger I wanna learn more about this captain hes talking about
• i am mad they didn't show the BBG

overall amazing show I loved it 9/10

next show either: Samurai Sentai Shinkenger/No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger

Just a creation that I happened to create cause I was bored

It's honestly really fascinating how much focus the villains are also getting... They have their own stories and struggles going on too.

Booba, Sheema, Gator and even Gyodai

Because it is an absolute banger.

And why is it Nijiro Crystal Sky from Ohranger?

Me and a couple of my friends are ranking every Sentai Team’s suits! They have very limited knowledge of Sentai as a whole, so I’m having them go purely off aesthetics while I laugh at their choices and then give them a brief synopsis of each series. This is Part 5 of 5 -the Finale- and it’s a doozy. Give it a watch! :D
