Rate No.1 Sentai Gozyuger's finale and series.

>Final fight was cool enough
>Hoeru literally just wishes to restart the ring war and then wins it again over another year (not seen)
>Besides that literally everyone gets a happy ending
>Ends with sausage party at the cafe
For Sentai's current final episode... I dunno. Bit too safe.

>>23742703
I've seen almost all the sentai series even the showa ones, and this is frankly the worst ending out of every single one. Even Ninninger, while overall an even worst show than Gozyuger, had a passable ending.

Decent finale, overall the show is a 7/10 for me. The 6 rangers were all really likeable but they were used extremely poorly due to giving most of the focus to Hoeru and Rikuo. The Bridans were amazing villains but the calimity were kind of generic for the most part. Every Universe Warrior was entertaining (except ShishiRed/2nd GozyuTyranno) yet they speedran through the Universe Battle. With the exception of the Mochitsuki, Omotenashi and Showa No Ones, all of the No Ones were fun but they barely contributed anything to the plot and they were mostly a detriment since they would detract focus from the Universe Warriors whenever they were written by Akiko which was most of the show. Many themes of the show blend together surprisingly well yet the show introduces several ideas to the worldbuilding that are never utilized again or are extremely rushed like the berserk Universe Warrior or whatever Orca was, also a lot of the world-building is gated by the Gozyugers not asking any question to Kumade which makes them all feel retarded. And then there's the whole Sumino recast situation making some episodes feel ominously depressing and several instances of poor editing, with the second worst case of editing being this final episode.

Overall I had fun for most of the show aside from like 5 episodes but the show felt like it didn't make the most use out of any of its ideas, ultimately the only thing I found consistently good from start to finish is the action, music and designs. I still think Matsuura is a producer with really good ideas and would like him to keep making toku but I really hope Akiko never does any team-focused toku ever again.

I like that they made it a point to include classic camerawork, like the mooks jumping in and the team flipping in to hit fire candle. They also probably got lucky some of the roll call was greenscreen to begin with so the last part of it still looked fine.

Simple realistic answer: Furlough where Rei was allowed get out (probably supervised and the chaperone is just outside Rikuo's dressing room) for that concert.

Long answer: Considering that Oto was able to recognize Sumino with a different face than from the time the two met, reality has probably been rewritten so as those deaths didn't happen. Or got "One More Day"/"No Way Home" Spider-Man-ed where those events still happened but couldn't be pinned to Rei.

That bitch definitely did this on purpose. I just know she did and she's just getting away with it scot-free. Onore Inoue Akiko!

As for the ending itself, a bit weak in the payoff department but I did think it was fitting thematicly in that the moral of story is firmly "The real treasure was the bros we made along the way" and even best boy got a nice acknowledgement from Hoeru and his no 1 family. Sumino however felt completely forced in there and that kinda skews message to "Yes bros, no hos". If there was one thing I would regret about this entry is that they really could have done a couple more bits with how chill of a god Tegasword is just going along with the hijinxes everyone else drags him into.

The term "wiener" is more of a sausage (a more common sight would be the タコさんウィナー / octopus sausage) and it's a clear reference to Episode 1 and restart in Episode 16. That said, the Japanese do love their puns so having multiple meanings/references is not out of the question.

Such a shame it all ended like this. I just started sentai 2 years ago and this was my first experience watching it as it aired. I was so hyped at the beginining. Sumino was easily my favorite character. It genuinely all collapsed after she left. The only solace I have now is draining my sack to Maya Imamori's gravure archive now.

I've been shitposting in Sentai weekly threads since 2009 and I want to say it's been an honour and a privilege to share that with the 20 something other anons that have been keeping them going since the decline.

gonna be honest I mostly watched for Hoeru's animalistic fighting style so on that front it delivered. It's probably the weakest of the Anniversary shows though. It's been said before but sentai really could have ended on Donbrothers and had a more satisfying conclusion. I think a better ending would've been them just repeating the ring battle over and over again and end sentai off by saying that the Gozyuger will keep having ring battles until the next sentai, and if they do ever bring gozyuger back after Vs Boonboom they could just say that at some point they all got their faces changed by tega sword if they can't get the actors back.

Hoeru's not a particularly compelling red but his fighting style makes up for it. My GOATs are still Don Momotaro, Patren 1gou, and Go-On Red though.

Quick spoiler: The finale has a scene where the cast change issue is blatantly obvious—it's laughably patchwork (laughs). We had to shoot it during the toughest period, so we did our best, but seeing the seams makes me regretful. Every time, I feel like Hoeru's scolding me. Hoeru's been through a lot but keeps pushing to live in this world, right? So I think, "If I emulate Hoeru, this show can be a proud work too." I've decided to see it as a charm point (laughs). If you watch with that in mind, it'd make me happy. Above all, please see the cast's dignified faces—they powered through insane conditions. We could deliver this far thanks to Toei's studio strength and grit. Amazing staff and cast. All the chaos linked to what we wanted to convey. Lots of frustrations, no regrets—I'm clear-headed now.

I actually fucking burst out laughing, this was such a shitshow. But it was an extremely fun shitshow, which is much more than I can say for KingOhGer which was duller than dirt. It's not the most ideal note for Sentai to go out on but at least it's a memorable exit.

This show was a fucking mess. A disaster. I won't pretend it was well-written or well-composed or anything other than a dumpster fire.

But God damn it, I fucking enjoyed the hell out of it. I liked this cast (Sumino aside, the whole drama with her actually benefitted me), I liked how fucking stupid everything was, I fucking loved seeing how ramshackle the editing around old Sumino's unpersoning was. It was a car crash I couldn't look away from and I loved every second. I can understand why people would dislike and be disappointed with this show but for me I just loved the train wreck it was. Rest in peace Super Sentai you went out in the funniest way possible.

>>23743234
To be fair
>cancelling Sentai before it's 50th season
wasn't the producer decision and only got told that Gozyuger would be the last Sentai until halfway through filming
>not getting a bigger name writer for Gozyuger and settling for Akiko despite this celebrating a 50th year anniversary
He tried but his initial choice rejected him so he picked Akiko instead

>>23743239

>>23743248
>what was it that made it generic for you?
I just wasn't feeling it, the characters didn't interest me, and just not a fan of the medieval aesthetic in general. I dipped out a bit after Kumonos got introduced.

>>23742696
This would have been a pretty decent finale if not for the obvious Sumino drama.
I like the final message they went with, but it they could have used 1 or 2 more episodes to develop it a bit more, with hoeru being alone for a full episode to find his dream

>the final Sentai that was meant to be a grand celebration of the whole history of the series and should have been a final hurrah was a complete wet fart because of a woman
Big fucking surprise

>>23743327
This show had numerous glaring flaws long before the Imamori scandal.

I watched some Changeman through a Brazilian channel in cable when I was a little kid, but of course I barely remember anything about it. Then as someone who grew in the 90s I watched Power Rangers every now and then.
Even though I had stopped watching anything at all for many years, I decided to start giving it a chance starting with Kyuurangers, and I've got to say that unlike many communities that constantly gatekeep newcomers this place has always been welcoming, so I appreciate that. Thanks for the fond memories during these 9 years watching shows and discussing them with you, even if I might be among the newer fans here it's still a lot of time.

Regarding Gozyuger it was a mess, but I really liked Kumade as the sixth. Best boy in the show.

>>23742861
>I like that they made it a point to include classic camerawork, like the mooks jumping in and the team flipping in to hit fire candle.
Yeah, to be honest that's the part I liked the most about the finale. Why didn't they have more like that in the show? Even though Power Rangers had everything from super sentai diluted within a lot of unadultered shit, they did keep all that.

Silly poses that allude to the subject of the series, henshin, role calls, guys jumping over the cameras, martial arts, special attacks, colorful explosions, team building, monsters that turn giants and combinable mecha to fight them. That's all I expect from a sentai. Not a show that is afraid to be what it's supposed to be, leave that to the Hollywood adaptations. It felt like in some late shows they'd only do role calls if it was ironic, baring a few moments. And the explosions in many colors were even replaced by normal explosions.

One last thing. If it's going to be the last super sentai, or at least the last one in many years, or who does even know what's going to happen, couldn't they have included someone from the original series at least in a cameo, considering they are still alive?

>>23743367

That's on Matsuura, but really Shirakura for not even telling him that Super Sentai was ending until they were months into filming and broadcast of the show. How would he know that if nobody told him? He was given an anniversary show to run not the final Super Sentai until he was told about it when nearly half the show was already in the can.

Oh yeah because he was eating a sausage when he stopped that robbery in the first episode so I guess this is Gozyuger's equivalent of the curry house in Gokaiger.

>>23743437
It followed on from Gokaiger which itself would have probably made more sense to be the 40th rather than 35th. I've always wondered if the Ranger Keys / Gokai Changes originated as a concept in the pre-production for Boukenger or even Gaoranger but they just weren't able to get it off the ground until after Decade.

So, the important question: who was the best gravure girl in all Super Sentai?

This made me realize how little Sumino actually interacted with Universe Senshi, like yeah she had Oto but ultimately FireCandle took over as ShinkenRed, then every single other Universe Senshi Sumino interacted with was either a split focus with other ranger or a Senshi that got defeated immediately like RyusoulRed
Same with Kumade who only had Battle Japan and the split focus episode for LuPat with Kinjiro and Sumino

Gozyuger felt like a bad school play where almost everyone acting in it was your friend. So you liked it because you liked the people in it, even if the props were bad, the script was messy, and you didn't really care what was going on. It's a messy show that is carried entirely by its charming characters. Not the best way to end a 50-year-old franchise, but there's been worse. Still better than the usual Kamen Rider anniversaries just on the cast being likable alone.
It was funny that they played clapping sound effects when Kuon came back as if anyone is happy to see that motherfucker.

>Gozyuger is a milestone in the Super Sentai series, but was that the plan from the start?

>Matsuura: Actually, it was decided a few years ago that this would be a cutoff, but I wasn't told at all. I found out around episode 10. I was thinking, "Alright, new era starts now—I'll be the leadoff hitter and score big!" Then they said, "You're up in the bottom of the 9th". I was like, "For real!?" (laughs). It was a shock at first, but now I feel honored. The higher-ups like Shirakura-san knew and still assigned it—that's huge. I'm interpreting it positively as them intentionally keeping it from me (laughs). If I'd known from the start, I'd have shrunk back in all sorts of ways. In that sense, I'm actually super grateful. I told Akiko-san pretty late.
>Inoue: I was shocked that Super Sentai was ending. I worried Gozyuger would feel like it was wrapping things up...

>We decided to put the series on hiatus right from the planning stage"
>We decided to put the Sentai series on temporary hiatus starting from the initial planning for Gozyuger. Although I kept it secret from the responsible producers, I gradually steered the project to also serve as a grand finale for the Super Sentai era, Shirakura stated.

I was thinking, "Okay, a new era is about to begin, I'm going to be the leadoff batter and score some good points!", but then they said, "You'll be standing there in the bottom of the ninth inning," and I was like, "Seriously?" (laughs). I was shocked when I heard it, but now I feel honored. Because, isn't it amazing that Shirakura-san and the people above knew that this was the "end of the series," and still assigned me with that understanding?

Why this feel more awkward than Plan 9? It should be a simple recast

>>23743738
Because up to episode 47 the show was filmed with the original actress and the last two episodes were filmed without either, then they had to really hastily edit the new actress into new scenes and call back the rest of the cast to make a few new scenes which was difficult for some of them since they were already working on other things, like a project Rikuo's actor was working on had to get delayed on order for him to come back to Gozyuger.

>>23743204

I don't see VS movies as canon. They're fanservice

Feels bad Gozyuger is the final sentai because sentai is my favorite toku franchise. I love the formula of a team of heroes working together and I'm been hook on the franchise since I watched Liveman during my childhood. It's such a shitty way to go. Probably I'd drop Gozyuger if it wasn't announced as the last sentai. I dropped sentai for a long time until Donbrothers reignited my love for the franchise. Well, nothing last forever and Gavan looks like a flop so sentai will be back soon. And Shirakura looks decrepit so he doesn't have much time to live anyway

The staff themselves have said the upcoming Vs movie is the true conclusion for the "Sentai" as a franchise, while the tv finale was more just an ending for Gozyuger's characters.

>>23744157
Then you're simply a hair-splitting retard. There's nothing to say that VS movies aren't canon other than the odd continuity hiccups which aren't exactly alien to the shows either.

>>23743897
Taiya (the real one) would punch Hoeru for having the chance to end poverty, war and pollution but instead choose to wish for wieners

>>23744221
Hoeru didn't need to do that since Kumade already used his god powers to erase the jews.

>>23744226
I think Kumade left the world the same considering the superhero genre is inherently conservative because it sees the status quo as fully justified and attack menaces to said order. That's why many toku shows end with the heroes claiming they protected the world peace when the world is still a mess. Boonboomger was actually ballsy to admit the world is inherently flawed without the hashiriens

>>23744237
I now remember the finale of Kamen Rider Ghost when Takeru had the opportunity to fix the city after the Ganmaizers fucked it but chose not to. Fuck him.

Black RX's ending having the message that the Riders need to act to stop Earth from following the same path as the demon world (destroying their own nature and falling to tyranny) is one of the only good parts of a mostly bad ending.

Best part of the finale was seeing old toku actors say farewell through twitter. That’s pretty heartwarming.

It’s the exact same ending as Geats and just as shitty
>>23743844
Donbrothers and King-Ohger were spiritually the Sentai finale. The other two shows afterwards was just to fill the time needed to say they stopped at 50.

>>23744326
They didn't even stop at 50, they stopped at 49.

>>23744237
>Boonboomger was actually ballsy to admit the world is inherently flawed without the hashiriens
Tomioka actually wanted to take it further, with Chashiro (temporarily) stopping wars around the world by fabricating world leader's orders while undercover so the screams around the world will stop fueling the Hashirians, but couldn't show wars and stuff because it's a childrens show.

>>23743032
Were 40 something now

The helmetless lineup with Sumino still wearing the helmet is the image this show will end on in people's minds. They tried as hard as they could but her actress's BTS nonsense really fucked this show up by the end. Kohaku tried her god damn best if anything as a replacement.

>>23744241
At least he resurrected the victims, Geats had like 6 chances to resurrect the countless victims murdered by the DGP but he never did, not even at the end when a bunch of people got blown up.

Most of Gozyuger is fun despite its flaws, do people really hate the Universe Warriors and Bridan?

>>23744564
You're the first person bringing up Revice ITT

>>23744591
It's just a general sentiment I saw a few threads back in the general, but even then I see people saying that this is less fun than Ninninger which is insane since most villains in that show sucked and the team also wasn't that interesting aside from StarNinger

>>23744326
Except LuPat ruined everything forever and Gozyuger is officially the 49th show even if they are the 50th team
>but Akibaranger
Then they'd be the 50th show but the 51st team. LuPat ruined everything forever.

I really thought they were going to make a point that Hoeru made the right choice in opting out of living in the peaceful alternative universe, since he was able to fight to have his cake and eat it to, getting to keep his friends AND a world where No. 1s aren't terrorizing humanity.
Instead they just kind of ignored that power-up entirely for the finale.

I expected a lot more answers by the end. What's Tega Swords connection to Sentai? It apparently predates the big Mecha fight since that took place after Kumade's original ring war.
What happened to all these hints that there's some dark secret, or sacrafice on the winners part, regarding the ring war?
In the end Tega Sword seemed completely well meaning and restarting the war had no negative consequences. Kumade getting trapped and petrified in the past seemed to be a result of fighting Lex, not something he should be blaming on Tega Sword.
Why could Kumade with a small handful of rings permanently kill Lex when such a huge number of actual Sentai Mecha couldn't? Especially when Sasuke made is sound like the rings are weaker than the real deal.

>>23743040
Did they just not follow this up or ask forgetting something?

>>23744168
>Feels bad Gozyuger is the final sentai
It's not. There's a new sentai airing next week.

>>23744735
Some scientists somewhere knew about Tega Sword somehow and somehow made Tega Jun and that's all you're fucking getting.

>>23744744
Is the woman inside the No. 1 still inside Tega Jun?

>>23744726
the rings didn't kill Lex, it just moved the Prince of Destruction power from Goodeburn to Kumade. Basically Goodeburn always had the power to defeat calamity inside him all along.
Yes it's even more laughable when you realize it, the plot really is just beyond shit

Someone, somewhere, probably Shirakura, is deeply regretting the decision to forcibly make Gozyuger the 50th anni and end things here, because it has forever tainted Sentai's legacy

>>23744748
Assuming Kumade remembered her (lol) he got her out of there and gave her her old life. Poor lady was probably doomed either way.

>>23742703
Bretty gud

>>23744769
True, it is a pretty sour note to end on all things considered.

If we can forgive Furuya then we can forgive Imamori.

>>23744801
I'm convinced that she was neither fired due to drinking nor the scandal, but because she refused to bare her feet for the finale

TFFD

>>23744763
Wouldn't it have been a better idea to let Goodburne himself do that? Since he barely got to shine at all.

>>23744784
I'd like to think that, but no one seemed to remember her predicament even after Tega Jun decided to stop being a bitch, so it has me doubting Kumade would randomly remember way later.

>>23744955
They missed a good chance to bring up the original purpose of the Ryoutega Sword, as a sacrafice Hoeru made for the sake of his new friends too.

This show was alright. Too many fucking plot threads with literally zero satisfying conclusions. Awful character balance (Sumino did literally nothing even before the shitshow, Ryugi is a nothing character except his focus episodes are the best, Kinjiro was cool but not enough focus episodes, Rikuo was better as a scammy scumbag but they got rid of that shit asap, Hoeru is fucking lame, Kumade is completely wasted) BUT I think moment to moment it was still pretty fun. Villains were great. Ring war concept was totally half baked.

People are definitely overreacting though, it’s not some horrible nightmare turd, it’s just a series that had multiple people fuck up by not tightening the reins in multiple places.

Also goodnight Sentai, I’ll miss you.

Well they clearly got Wes Anderson for Kamen Rider Gavv.

>>23745365
Pretty much this, it's a pretty good show, nothing outstanding but still above average, but people are overreacting due to the head writer being Akiko Inoue, which to be fair is the cause of most of the show's problems
Then the overreacting kicked in into overdrive due to the Sumino situation and this being the last Sentai

Overall as weak as a finale this was I'm glad that every Reiwa Sentai show was at the very least above average, Boonboomger was the only one I found kinda weak and even then I really like the main 5 rangers and thought the first and final arcs were solid

>>23745503
They usually hire complete newbies in toku to launch their careers and this being a kid's show, by those standards Hoeru is far from the worst when Gotchard exists, Hoeru is somewhere in the bottom middle.

If Sentai is going on hiatus and this show coming up is supposed to not be Sentai then why the fuck did they put this guy in at the end?

>>23745754
>then why the fuck did they put this guy in at the end?
To get kids excited and to make them aware it exists.

>>23745756
You know when Hasbro sues they'll point to this as evidence right?

>>23745759
Hasbro doesn't have a case, the main problem with Hasbro suing someone outside of the US is how expensive would be for Toei to respond to them which was why Saban always won those legal battles against video games inspired by Super Sentai even though Saban himself had no case, it was cheaper to lose
But I don't think Hasbro or Disney will sue, both of them been having several PR problems and bleeding money although they're still filthy rich, even worse PR might do them worse

>>23745749
>still above average
No, this shit is on the lower end of Sentai shows.

>>23745759
evidence of what? Gavan on a legal level is not super sentai, a brief torch pass scene doesn't change that. Metal Heroes has already had full crossovers with sentai plenty of times before.

>>23745859
Infinity appearing in an episode of Sentai might get him affected by the bullshit contract because it covers every character that appears in a Sentai. Power Rangers was allowed to use Gavan Type G because it appeared in Go-Busters.

>>23747317
I wouldn't count the hand-off as appearing in a Sentai, it's a glorified promo. Though I wouldn't put it past the Judenschwein to try to exploit this.

You think its bad now imagine being the poor future shmuck that'll jump into Gozyuger blind and wonder what the fuck happened when he gets to the last leg of the show.

>>23745754
Because sentai is not going on hiatus, there is a new sentai airing this weekend.

Shitshow of an episode to cap off a shitshow of a series. Definitely a bottom 3 show for me. Here's hoping Gavan Infinity is really good right out the gate.

>>23747808
It surely can't be any worse than gojuja

>>23747711
It's ok, Gozyuger does so much shit offscreen that Sumino's face changing offscreen for an offscreen investigation fits right in. They had such foresight...

>>23747711
It's going to be remembered and talked about like how Miss America changed actresses or how the first Yellow Four "died" and was replaced.

So is Hoeru the weakest Gozyuger? He needed the Orca Booster just to beat Ryugi. Ryugi and Rikuo are evenly matched, with Ryugi only managing a victory because Rikuo was already beat up by the time he decided to take their final fight seriously. All five of them can use the Ryoutega sword, which seems to be more powerful than the Orca Booster and they didn't even end up letting Hoeru do something unique with the Ryoutegs Sword in the finale, they just forgot it.
I really feel like they should have made the mid series upgrade the one anyone can use, and the final upgrade unique to Red, if they wanted to back their Red favoritism up with something real.

>>23747893
>Ryugi and Rikuo are evenly matched
When this happened, I instantly went, this is bullshit. Being stronk is literally the young master's only gimmick.

>>23747903
Well being good at guns is idol boys only real strength in combat, so I guess it evens them out.

>>23747317
Kamen Riders have appeared in Sentai but they're not affected.

Why was Ryugi continually treated as a naive, essentric nut for just backing the correct horse the entire time? Only the red racer plot line seemed to really acknowledge his faith in Tega Sword as a serious thing. Even the mini arc where he quit seemed to frame his faith as causing him to make the wrong decision when he was too shaken up by seeing Tega Sword in danger in the movie.
I thought maybe they were going to reveal there was some dark secret behind Tega Sword. Kumade's initial appearance gave that vibe too. And that could have made Ryugi's overzealous faith seem misguided, thereby justifying the show's dismissive attitude towards his Tega Sword fanboyism.
But that never happened. Tega Sword was a genuine benevolent authority. He was always trying to do the right thing without taking anyone's agency away. His influence saved the universe multiple times over. Ryugi literally discovered God, like, he knew the guy personally. But they kept treating him like a goofball for it, all the way into the final episode.

>>23748861
Yellow man funny!! Green man funny!!
So anyways here's an overly serious story about a pretty boy idol late into his career who's wish was entirely achievable by normal means.

>>23748861
The writer doesn't say this directly on her latest interview so maybe I'm projecting but the general vibe I got is that she came up with idea of him but not what she would do with him, so she basically had no planning for him and every focus episode of Ryugi were things she came up with at the moment

>>23747893
Despite commanding so much of the narrative's limelight, Hoeru is kinda sad for a red. He wasn't the only one who could use the Tega Sword upgrade that was introduced as if it was tied to him specifically. He wasn't the only one who got to use the upgraded mech. Hell If I remember right Ryugi uses it the last time. He was pretty much just an observer for the resolution to the Lex fight and only won the ring war out of a default. And even in the end couldn't even beat his rival on his own, despite Fire Candle very clearly becoming stronger and making sacrifices just to fight him alone.
It's hard to not feel like Origared 's initial assessment of Hoeru wasn't correct.

>>23744337
I blame her agency and Toei.

>>23744748
>>23744316
Shes dead. As stated in the episode.

>>23748972
Nothing wrong with sharing. Or do we want to go back to red wank like Lucky and King?

>>23749080
Right but like... There's just a corpse sitting in her cockpit right now?

>>23749082
They shoulda switched the orca booster than the ryoutega sword. The ryoutega sword is literally written to specifically be Hoeru's sacrafice, while the orca booster has a mind of its own.

>>23743423
Tegasword-sama couldn't pull me out. Something about her drives me fucking wild

>>23742696
If the Shit 3 (Saban/Disney/Hasbro) didnt fucked things over, how would the unadapted seasons would have been? King-Ohger in particularly?

>>23749743
If you watch Ninja Steel and Dino Fury you can expect the same bland plastic shit quality from it for a King-Ohger adaptation. Fucking seriously, despite Ryusoulger being meh and some call it Ryusoulless, I would rather watch that than Dino Fury. DF makes Ryusoulger looks soulful in comparison.

>>23745754
Because it's a Sentai in all but name.

>>23743424
nta but the second half of Kingohger was terrible, the first half was so good yet it felt like everything they built up fell apart slowly every week, the awful jesters, the half assed Kyoryuger crossover shoved in the middle of the plot, the overly complex reason Gira is special while also forcing Racules to appear like some genius keikaku man plotting the whole show, and dagded himself was so one note, only people who like this shit love it because they saw discount japanese avengers end game in those last 3 episodes.

Not sure if this is the correct thread to ask but why did rivals with toys become commonstay on super sentai from kyuranger onward?

>>23765803
I don't think it's Kyuranger that established the pattern. There's nothing in Lupat.

Gaisoulg in Ryusoulger was unexpectedly popular, and then afterwards Stacaesar also was popular. But note Stacaesar wasn't even planned from the beginning and it happened mostly to give his actor a role.

Now, then, for Donbrothers, we do know Bandai at this point basically wanted the rival character to be in, which is why you have Don Murasame in DonBrothers even though Inoue clearly didn't care for it at all.

"Rival" or "Rival Hero" is what the designated Evil Ranger of a Sentai is called officially. Sonoi is Taro's rival in the story, but he's more of a Bangai Hero than an actual Ranger.

>>23765913
Correct.
