Finally watched this episode and all I got to say is I'm replaying 15:20 to 15:35 over and over again.

I was surprised that a few qcers hadn't heard of Nakagawa Shoko. It was a pretty big hassle explaining that the character in the show was a parody of a real person, since they kept thinking Chokotan and Shokotan were the same person.

That brings up an interesting point I think: they seem to have greatly expanded the budget/effort used to bring on guest stars. Season one got DekaRed early on and BoukenRed as a VA, but that's about it. Whereas here in season two we've had a TV personality, 4(ish) ranger VAs, an anime singer, 2 Sentai singers, and now a Sentai announcer. It's great that they seem to show so much faith in the series this year.:)

To be fair to season one -
In season one they have a lot of the VA doing guests and cameos - such as Matsumoto Rika playing as Yoko's mother, Seki Tomokazu as the security guard to Toei. Momoi Haruko and Yamagata Yukio also did cameo as the victims of the monja attack on the streets of Akiba. So save for Matsumoto Rika the other three are actually coming back for a second round of fun. Then you also have Nibori as well.

Yumeria's name is Yuuko, not Yoko.

Opps typo. :lol:

EDIT: I thought Yuuko's cosplay of Aniki/Mizuki Ichiro was funny, though it would be more awesome if they got Mizuki Ichiro for a cameo just to complete the circle now that they had Horie Mitsuko. Actually would be more funny if Mizuki Ichiro is Yuuko's father-in-law or something. Now that I think about it there seems to be a running joke that Yuuko's family/extended family all being otakus and pretty famous both on and off screen.

Is that narrator the same announcer from Kakuranger? If it is then cool because I've been watching Kakuranger subs so he's still fresh in my mind. About this episode, it wasn't as funny as the previous episodes but it was still hilarious. Akagi's fetish is very strange and surreal but it makes for a good conflict to fight against. They did manage to make the MotW very cute yet deadly at the same time. Good acting from the suit actor. Yumeria looked pretty hot in her cosplay too. That red hair looks good on her.

Tanaka Nobuo is not the Storyteller from Kakuranger. That guy is famous rakugo performer, Sanyuutei Enjou.

I love how poorly and obviously applied Tsuu Shogun's facial hair and eyebrows are. :lol:

I have to wonder how was the conversation between hakase and the narrator:
Hakase Hakase:"look, we need your help. you see, my friends are heroes who fight in a delusional world able to change our reality, to transform, they use a moe mecha girl toy, and now they are fighting a cute robot girl who turns red on and makes him unable to fight, could you do some narration to help him overcome it?"
Tanaka Nobuo: well, this is not the weirdest thing i have seen, so ok.
