I hope all are doing good. I stumbled upon this on Toei's official radio show, Kamen Radiranger which is hosted by Ken'ichi Suzumura and Hiroshi Kamiya (Ryu Commander's seiyuu). https://ameblo.jp/kamen-radiranger/entr ... 33780.html
The thing is, it has been claimed that Kamiya confirmed on this broadcast that Houou Soldier is the sixth ranger. My Japanese vocabulary and kanji are very limited and I am quite confused on some of the dialogue. I would certainly appreciate if someone fluent in Japanese can confirm if Kamiya indeed confirmed that Houou Soldier is the 6th during this broadcast.
This part is kinda confusing to me:
To me it looks like Suzumura is saying something like: "You said you are the 6th ranger but you're not six at all." However, G-Translate is saying that it is: "I said I am the sixth ranger."鈴村:「よく考えたら、今6人目の戦士って言ったけど、全然6人じゃないな。」
To which Kamiya replied, "Doubled, 12th ranger."
I know Japanese tends to change meaning depending on the context and syntax. You can read the full broadcast at the link above.
Did Kamiya really confirm that Houou Soldier is the 6th ranger? Any help would certainly be appreciated. Thank you again and God Bless =>
