However, someone asked one of the current stars of Samurai and he confirmed a second season of Samurai is in the works. This means that the next one will be based off of either Goseiger or Gokaiger

Copyright request only says "prerecorded dvds" though, if it were a show it'd mention that.

EDIT: They could be using stock footage to create the show.

So, episode 3 (I think, appearance of Seack Brothers) just aired, and you know what? Megaforce is definitely getting better. They seemed to have either toned down the puns or at least improved on them so they weren't a major source of face slaps. At least for this episode, I think the only glaring flaw that I saw was with some of the editing because at times the sound didn't seem to sync up correctly with the video, which is weird to see from the TV vs. a computer file. In addition, there were moments where you knew were supposed to be sources of catch-phrases from the Goseiger footage which seemed awkward with the English script.

Overall though, there were definitely improvements, and I hope they continue to get better. I'm sure part of the review is based on the fact that Samurai just sucked that much, but things are definitely more promising.

Was the bit of Noah using the Axe to break the cube the people infected with the virus were Quarantined in Goseiger footage? There was a BIG continuity error that followed that.

Nah. Strangely enough, the majority of this episode was U.K. Footage.

I noticed that as well. They then go back to being in a group shot before the monster with the Buster assembled. That is piss poor to be honest.

So far I am enjoying this more than Samurai. It might be just because they don't have to try and incorporate such a big theme, or the fact they didn't make stupid suits for the Megazord sequences.

You can also see a little bit of blood coming from the monster before they cut it, from the original where they needed the blood for the cure.

I really enjoyed Goseiger, so I'm going to be quite critical of this, but so far so good.
