Well, clearly after how badly Go-Busters failed, Toei wanted to go back and redo all the 3-man teams as 5-member teams and went for Aba first due to the Dinosaur theme.

We'll have to see if their next victim is either Geki or Sun Vulcan next.

AbarePink will soon become an official member of the team. Meanwhile, they'll go back to Hurricaneger and add HurricaneGreen and HurricanePine.

Also, Pink Buster is now an official Go-Buster.

Um not sure if this is planned but this is not Abranger. Of course as I type this I remember that this is 4/1. Still it's uncool to download what you think is Abaranger and get a joke subbed version of Kyouryuuger. If your releasing Abaranger for real awesome if not this is a bad joke.

The color's off on this release....I'm pretty sure the green guy's supposed to be black, the black guy's supposed to be blue, the pink girl's supposed to be yellow, and the blue guy's supposed to be green. And a pirate. And not in this show.

After actually watching: I can forgive the "tongue-in-cheek" lack of writing. Even though last year's thing was already pushing that. But damn your bones, not ONE use of ubiquitous dinoguts?! How many chances are you gonna get to use that word?!

...Now nobody pay attention to the lack of things I did this week so as I can continue to judge.

Since April Fools is over in the EDT, I should tell the whole truth about it. Yes this was an April's Fools Day prank. But I wonder how many of you actually watched the whole thing though. I give thanks to the people who actually watch the whole thing and played along with it. As for everyone else, you should know what day it was and didn't think to yourselves, "Kyouryuuger is a dino sentai, wouldn't it be great to combine with Abaranger and ZyuRanger?" So that's what I did basically.

If you guys watched the whole thing, maybe you can enjoy it for what it is instead of a broken dream. A great joke is to make convincing as possible and I think that work at well. Some clues being it fake was the HD releases of them and how it was categorized in the tracker. I give thanks for Yaiba and Takumi for making the splash and logo for this release.

I'm going to make a poll to see how many you guys actually watched the release. And sorry that we aren't planning to do Abaranger at this time.

I have to say that you are the only crowd that managed to fool me. I was like "No, Abaranger is too cool is mess with. They wouldn't."... Yes they would :P

I think the reason some people are annoyed (I'm not annoyed btw) is that they'd love to see Abaranger and other sentais around that time subbed in the TV-N style. I know i would.

Oh sorry, looks like the encoder guy used the wrong raw (what a dummy). We'll get on that right away.

By the way, what player shows an ad at the top of that?

Well a good Prank is one, even the one who got pranked, can laugh about after, and that was totally one of them.
Watched the Full Ep, just to see what had become what, and totally rolled over the Floor at some ^^
And then I walked over to Skewed and Watched the actual one... xD
Hope someday it will come, but atm I'm more hooked to Mega/Time, so keep up the good Work/Pranks Guys ;D

I enjoyed it, though I'm kinda disappointed you guys didn't overlay the full Abaranger opening song translation over the Kyoryuger opening just for abit more consistency with the joke.

Um, no, that's lies. I wouldn't rate jokes, though, that's tricky business.

^See that? That's a great joke. But its awful and unfunny and a lot of people can miss it.

Heh, I don't see it happening, but we probably would do that since we tend to reuse styles. Glad to know you like those effects though.
