Re: KR Gotchard 27 thread

Also, since I haven’t seen Geryon’s actor get his flowers, and being sucked through a door is too ambiguous to be a real death, I’m guessing he’ll be back in a few weeks/months. It's sad that the people are trying to look for pictures of actors receiving flowers for their job to determine if someon...

Re: KR Gotchard 27 thread

Geiz is German for stinginess/miserliness. You'd call Scrooge "geizig". But as mentioned, it rhymes with Fights, not Gates. And that name has very little to do with Geiz the character.

Though Decade and Meteor show they're not too bothered about accurate pronunciation.

Re: KR Gotchard 27 thread

Yeah, Platina is Italian too. It reminds me of people getting mad about Kamen Rider Amazon Alfa, as if the English spelling should be prioritised when using a Greek word in a Japanese show.

(Although they regularly screw up foreign words. Geiz is supposed to rhyme with Fights, not Gates.)

Re: Boonboomger 03 discussion thread

They're taking their time adding the new members and new toys. We can spend more time with the core three to learn more about them, and we're not getting dumped truckload of new toys every episode. I feel like I'm back in the early 2000s. Love this pacing. And makes a change from Gotchard, which so...

Re: KR Gotchard 27 thread

MUGEN NO KANOSEI! I'm really getting new form fatigue by now. I've just checked, and do you know how many episodes so far have not feature either a new Rider or form? Four. That's 15, 17, 20, and 25. Remember when people had arguments over what counts as a Rider's power-up, final form, or whatever o...

Re: Boonboomger 03 discussion thread

Mira's outfit this week is fucking me up, she's dressed like a Yellow Ranger. Probably the weakest episode so far, but only because the first 2 were so good. I like that Mira seems to be the focus so far. Clearly Haruka being so prominent in Donbrothers was a big success. Where'd the police guy get ...

Re: Boonboomger 02 discussion thread

No way will Bun Violet be a woman. I'd love it to be true, but it won't. Well, the current Kamen Rider series has the first female secondary Rider and they are often matched with Sixth Rangers. Granted there already was a female Sixth Ranger a decade and a half ago in Go-Onger though that was share...

Re: Boonboomger 02 discussion thread

No way will Bun Violet be a woman. I'd love it to be true, but it won't. We really are back to basics, we have our first ending dance since Kiramager. I enjoyed this episode. Glad we're getting more of the individual mecha, let's hope that continues. Other than shows like Go-Busters, the individual ...

Re: My argument for why it should be Boomboomger

To be fair, Toei has had way stupider romanisations. I still maintain that the secondary Rider in Build is named Claws, and that fans are insane for going alone with "Cross-Z" like it means anything whatsoever. He's a bloody dragon named クローズ, how is that not "Claws"?

More than 1 group subs weekly toku. Has done since at least Double/Gokaiger.

Re: Shin Kamen Rider discussion thread

Finally gotten around to watching this. It's basically the Kamen Rider version of Power Rangers 2017, where basically it's just the designs and names they've reused, and everything else is totally new. Certainly it's better than Kamen Rider The First. Like PR 2017 though, it feels a bit like they've...

Re: Boonboomger 01 discussion thread

God, it feels so good to have Super Sentai back, after a year of King-Ohger. We have likeable characters. We have scenes filmed in real places instead of a green screen. We have suits that aren't just huge slabs of colour. (With hindsight, were the King-Ohger suits designed how they were to make chr...

Re: Kamen Rider Faiz 20th: Paradise Regained

Don't really like they retconned Kamen Rider Yongou out of existence Wasn't that non-canon to begin with? Since it was directly connected to a Taisen movie... Well no. Because the whole point of Kamen Rider Yongou was that it explained all the plot inconsistencies in the Super Hero Taisen movies.

Re: Abaranger with DonBros

Just watched this and the movie. The special was fine, the movie was great. Never thought we'd get a Sentai movie about Cancel Culture.

Nice they got Mai's original actress back, I thought this'd be another repeat of the guy in Gokaiger 10 or Rika from Kyoryuger, where we'd get a recast.

Re: Kamen Rider Faiz 20th: Paradise Regained

Movie's out, I've just watched it. I really liked it. Glad that Kusaka being mysteriously alive again actually comes up as an important point, and isn't just shrugged off, and glad we finally got proper Faiz at the end. Kind of wish they hadn't destroyed the Kaixa Gear though. Now that Mari is an Or...
