Re: Gokaiger 27 released
B-Fighter Kabuto had an American that spoke heavily accented Japanese as one of the extra heroes. Thats the only show I've seen that has had a non-asian has a toku hero.
Psyga in Paradise Lost was Chinese, but other than those two, I just assume everyone else is Japanese.

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
Yeah, I know there have been a few Chinese and foreign-born Japanese senshi, but it is not exactly the same.
Not that big a deal. It was just something I thought of when they asked Gai if the Prime Minister dude was a former sentai member.

Would that be Diane? Her picture on supersentai.com wasn't that great. It was hard to tell from that.Kamen Rider Ookalf wrote:I believe the first Miss America from Battle Fever was Caucasian. Then again, she apparently spoke very little Japanese and had to be dubbed over by a Japanese actress... Aside from her, Momo Ranger and Heart Queen were both half-Caucasian.Silent_X wrote:Hmm..

and ShinkenBrown doesn't count.

You are probably my favorite person ever right now.
Note to self: If ever stuck in the body of Luka Millfy, do my best to avoid touching her breasts in any way, No matter how much I am tempted as an adolescent male.
The hypocracy in Luka saying not to mess with anything is hilarious.
Ending: Aww, don't worry Doc. There are plenty of women who like the geeky sort of guy. I know, I went out with two of them.
Next Time!:
Spoiler
Black Condor! Wait a minute, isn't he dead?
Loved that he was doing the next time, and I can't wait to see the reaction when Ikari Gai meets Yuki Gai.

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
Guess this will be the only episode where Doc is portrayed as being the cool guy, and Luka being a sweet, innocent girl. Wait, shouldn't that be the way it is???

Things would've been uncomfortable if they ran into former Power Rangers at that peace conference.
Having Marvelous slap Gai's hand out of his face was oddly hilarious to me.
Constantly adjusting the GokaiYellow skirt during the fight was so silly.

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
I enjoyed this episode, had a really good laugh when Luka and Hakase continued fighting, not realizing they already switched bodies (Hakase swinging the guns, and Luka shooting with the swords).
The "jewelry store owner" looks really familiar...
Gotta agree with the rollcall change, it was fun, haha..
for next episode:

My childhood heroes will be used in their Gokai Change sequence! Bioman, Maskman, and of course, Jetman!
..and I guess Gai / Black Condor will be able to answer the question on how his power was used in the Legendary War...

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
Well, I really liked those leaders saying "Sugo!" all the time...
And take a look at 12:48 again. That little sign says "The great man" among the other titles, "President" and "Prime minister." Anyone know Chinese? I think I remember 大人 meaning some sort of government official from my brief time watching Chinese historical dramas (and not really knowing what was going on)... so I guess that was the hilariously translated equivalent?

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
Now why would they move on from doing stereotypes? South Park not to long ago did a whole episode of Asian stereotypes. It doesn't end here, it won't end there. I loved this episode. I did wish they would of just swapped the keys. But, I guess the suits are all identical. Except color.dancercotillion wrote:Gonna go out on a limb and say no.

Keep in mind how non-asians are portrayed on these shows. We're generally used as comic relief unless there's a point to the character being foreign, like the world leaders in this episode. It's going to take a while before Japan moves on from "it's funny because they're white." At least we got a female Red, so... yay for progressivism in Japan?

Re: Gokaiger 27 released
I was just wondering when we were going to get the body swap/locked-in-a-room-or-dimension/chained to each other episode--now that I've seen it, it was just full of win:
Doc looks muuuuch better like that--seriously the kuru-kuru perm doesn't work for him
'Luka' the toilet peeper
Trying to slash with guns/ shoot with swords; I LOLed
'Luka' hiking up her skirt
also "Oh right, I'm GokaiGreen" Not just messing up the rollcall again, this time just completely destroying it--twice. Does it count since it technically wasn't him? (And sure, him stroking his thighs was weird before, but now we're doing the bunny ears? Really? )
All in all, great episode--it's no Funya~~ but it still left me in tears

"Were those foreigners older super sentai members?"
Oh Ahim...
LOL @ the roll call and @ Doc lifting the skirt.
Poor Doc couldn't impress the schoolgirls.
Gil's plan was smart. Unfortunately the kaijin messed it up.
Mao managed to pull off Doc's faces and overall "wimpness".
Not an awesome ep, but good enough.
