Hm.. i'm a smidge sceptical to the actors of the Lupins since they all have baby faces xD

Looking forward to the plot though!

Eh. I think it fits. the core theme of the show seems to be contrast between the two team. Lupins are thieves, Pats are cops. Lupins have sky vehicles, Pats have ground vehicles. Lupins objective is to fulfill their desires which means they selfish motives in contrast to the Pats, who seem to be Pats out of a sense of duty and responsibility to protect citizens (In other words, fighting is a means to an end for the Lupins, while for the Pats that is, in itself, the end)

In that sense, the Lupins may be supposed to be younger or, at the very least more immature than the more serious and grounded Pats.

Apparently, if this person's translation is to be believed, even the actor for Genpachi agrees with this conversation.
The supporting comment being: "Even Taira Imata, who played Genpachi in Kamen Rider Drive thinks that Patren 1gou looks a lot like him! What are the odds!"

Taira Imata's source tweet that was linked there, while I'm at it.

Maybe that was the type that they wanted when casting?

In all seriousness, from the images I've seen, they at least got the looks down correctly for casting each team.

Can I just point out how extremely similar some of the aspects of this series is compared something I posted here?

viewtopic.php?f=148&t=21799

Now I'm not saying they outright stole my idea, cause having two different Sentai's to form one team has been done before, but the last time I updated that thread was in September, and in October we got a copyright claim for Lupin vs Pat.

Following that, there's the three man team thing (again, nothing new but still) and there's the 'one member will be working for multiple factions' comment I read in an article talking about Lupin vs Pat.

It's just all too much to be a coincidence, ya know?

EDIT: (in Uncle's voice from Jackie Chan Adventures)

One more thing!

LupinRanger are thieves, so we can assume that they're in it for personal gain, right? That's literally in the first post I made.

"The series is written by Junko Komura (Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger, Kamen Rider Wizard) with Takaaki Utsumoniya (Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Ressha Sentai ToQGer, Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger)"

Ugh, my hopes fell far, far, far..... down. Hopefully Takaaki will have a bigger input than Komura.

Since both guys worked on Zyouhger I am expecting this series to be funny with some fan service and implied yaoi. There will be some lose ends in the plot but they will be resolved in the movie.

Utsumoniya will, producers come off as higher on the chain than the writers; for better or for worse.

I think a slight correction needs to be made, though. Utsumoniya was Head producer on those shows mentioned and on Wizard but, Komura was only a sub-writer on Wizard writing episodes 2-3 (co-written with Head writer Tsuyoshi Kida), 5-9, 12-15, 20-21, 24-25, 28-29, 40-41, 44-47 (plus "In Magic Land") and the Wizard section of "The Fateful Sengoku Movie Great War". So while she worked on the show, she didn't kick Phoenix into the sun or the Myna bird/Bogeyman eps or the awful Wiseman plot.

Oh dear god, I would be furious if they leave dangling loose ends for a separate movie to wrap up. It was bad enough they pulled that in Zyuohger but I will not accept them doing that again.

I've also noticed the similarity; the concept of the three police/vigilantes/villains forces seem all but impossible to mark off as coincidental. I'm not sure whether to be mad at Toei for grabbing an idea from an unofficial forum or hopeful that they can learn from the fans to make a higher-quality Sentai season after the last few installments' issues, but either way they really needed to give some royalties/credit for this.

With that said, if "inspired a 50-episode TV season" can be put on a resume, it's going to look really good on it, especially after Saban brings said season into the mainstream. But this does feel pretty low for a TV giant like Toei.

I wouldn't read too much into it, they start designing toys and basic story for these shows a year in advance.

Don't believe Lunas lies. Toei/Bandai spies are everywhere. Gaim was actually my idea.
