AkibaRanger 07 Released

Post by ReversedSentai »

Oh my god, what an episode. Definately one of the best so far. We finally learn the truth behind Hakase and Malshiina. Looks like there's something connected with Hakase's father. Also, I really didn't recognize Mitsuki when she was cosplaying Z-Cune Aoi; I thought that it was one of the two Sentai cosplaying girls.

That was also pretty smart of Malshiina to pretend that the town was brainwashed into vampires for the AkibaRangers to enter the world of delusions.

Also, we finally see Kozukozu, that girl who cosplays Super Sentai Heroines, do something! Although I was wondering where Ikura was when Malshiina was attacking the base.

So we see Boukenger, MagiRanger, and ZyuRanger heroine cosplays this week, eh? Yumeria's shogun cosplay was also quite neat.

Mitsuki and Yume cosplaying Aoi and Satomi was priceless.Nobu's a lucky guy. Having two cute girls cosplay as the heroines of your favorite anime right next to you...

Yume as an OL! I also liked her Samurai? cosplay.

Surprsingly, an episode full of plot. And you know what, it's interesting. I'm eager to know who Hakase's father was, what he did, what Aoi-tan has to do with the Akibas and what the Toei producer wanted. I guess it'll be more than just comedy.

That tron battle was cool and the Akibas seeing their bodies was funny.

But it's strange. Yumeria's art is identical to Hakase Sr.'s.

I hope they can keep it funny while having a main plot.

You guys should have done a special font for the MOTW's Henshin. It was screaming Kamen Rider reference.

All I can say was Sh1t JUST GOT REAL!

Anyway I am in awe of the episode but also really, really confused as to what is going on throughout the episode. I guess more will be revealed for further understanding to the fans. I really don't get how Akibarangers could go into the reality from their delusion while they are also in reality and how a portal appeared for them while they were in the delusion. It really bugs me that they are not going to reveal the mystery of Mashinaa in this episode.

Basically Malshiina escapes the world of delusions and then pretends that the town citizens are becoming vampires to force the AkibaRangers to enter the world of delusions. Malshiina then attacks Hakase and tricks the AkibaRangers in opening the barrier between the two worlds.

But how did she trick the akibarangers that there were vampires in the reality? Was it a delusion that there were vampires?

MaruCna paid random people to wear fake vampire teeth and act like vampires.

That wasn't a delusion. She had those people put on a performance like they're really vampires so the AkibaRangers thought it was a delusion.

This episode was creepy and hilarious. That's a surprisingly good mix. Marushina is a very cunning person. Very cunning. I felt a real sense of danger here.
Well I guess I'm not a pirate anymore now that img limits exist.

Help I can't help finding every yellow ranger cute

Are the bad edits supposed to be a gag, or are they really screwing up the editing here? There were a few different occurrences towards the start of the episode where they clearly cut from one take to the next.

Wow. Just wow

I never thought that kind of story plot could happen in this show
I literally said "WTF!!!" out loud when the rangers see themselves in real life
Now i'm really curious about what happened

If TOEI managed to keep this kind of writing quality till the end of the show,
I seriously think this will be my number 1 favorite sentai(?) show
