Censorship in Power Rangers

TVY7-FV. That’s the rating of Power Rangers, and has been since the beginning.
It put them in this gray area, as TV-Y7 is meant for 7 year olds and up with shows like Spongebob Squarepants and Phineas and Ferb. But it got that flavor of FV, Fantasy Violenxe, which yeah you’re on the nose.
In order to get this rating, Power Rangers has had to do a lot of censoring to make this more kid-friendly in the USA, and hit the peak that it did, capturing the imaginations of millions of kids worldwide. Since Power Rangers was adapted from a Japanese series called Super Sentai, they had to make it more openly acceptable to american audiences, which as you see later in this video, the Japanese do things differently...

The most outta pocket censorship in power rangers is the fact that they don't curse like sailors. Because high schoolers absolutely do that.

[@FuryousD]

yea u obviously aren't Australian then, u couldn't go a week without hearing someone swearing over here honestly.@@ZoneHeart00

[@FuryousD]

i noticed, as i said u would be pressed to go a week without hearing someone swear here (i myself do it all the time, it's therapeutic really).@ZoneHeart00

[@4Kgaming561]

[@4Kgaming561]

Pretty much every one swears in my school and vapes I don’t vape but I do swear

[@codysvlogdays]

​@ZoneHeart00 idk where you live but pretty much every place I've seen anything about has cursing as a part of their everyday vocabulary lol

[@Fant]

I think the card containment in SPD was actually a pretty good addition. I like the idea of a special police force that instead of executing, simply captures them.

[@mrigzdiedalone]

spd is goated

[@ryanstauffer119]

Agreed. And when it came to that episode of a shapeshifter looking like previous enemies, they looked into the containment cards to see if their enemies were still trapped and not on the loose.

[@MouldyBoss]

I mean there cops not judge dread.

[@ironmaster6496]

I agree considering that the monsters on that season are technically just criminals it would have been pretty fucked up to just kill them

[@bensonlineberger1852]

@@ironmaster6496Timeranger/Time Force did that before SPD.

[@dreamteamamv8177]

Some of the biggest censorship I can think of is the blue ranger from timeforce not having a fatal disease like in timeranger. Also in time force not having the quantum ranger die like the timefire ranger did.

[@SYLXM]

I'd describe that more of a plot change rather than censorship, but I see the point you're making. I think having a terminally ill person in a kids show could actually be pretty educational for kids on the topics death and sickness-which some kids have to experience at a younge age.

[@kenslycarpel3140]

I kinda wish they kept. We all know Lucas got the short end of the stick when it came to focus and development of his character.

[@raidenthenctzenwithinsomni4961]

Nah, no need to kill off characters.

[@ironmaster6496]

i disagree, just killing off the characters doesn't really elevate the show at all, specially since in Eric's case it gave him a more satisfactory concluson to his character, Tommy too in mighty moprhin instead of just dying he became the most legendary ranger ever. i do think however that Lost galaxy did it really well since Kendrix "death" lead to Astronema becoming a ranger

[@Fulminoxk]

These are not censorship. For Lucas it's just a plot change and for Eric it's a result of better character development

[@plasmatic210.]

For the body swap stuff, my thought is Billy would absolutely respect Kimberly’s body and not look after the swap. But Jake would immediate look at his new Gia body when they swap XD

[@kyleellis1825]

He probably would have in the first 10 or so episodes. But in Super Mega Force, I really don't think Jake would have. Gia (in Jake's body) probably would have spent the whole day with him, with JAke(in Gia's body) telling people it's a date so she has to constantly correct him.

[@BRUNOTHEECHIDNA]

Saban: "Alright, this will be our first Power Rangers series after we bought the franchise back from Disney, so let's do this right. This gold ranger has a typical Japanese food for a morpher? Nah, we gotta change that." Also Saban: "Alright, this will be our last Power Rangers series before we sell the franchise over to Hasbro, so let's do this right. This gold ranger has a typical American food for a morpher? Nah, we gotta change that."

[@serPomiz]

which, with how much samurai takes 1:1 from shinkenger, the plot point of the samurai bloodline above all else, one would think that they had some unified reasoning in the studio...

[@ChronoUchiha]

When the Green Ranger first fights the other rangers, you can see him slap Kimberly, but Saban removed the slap sound effect.

[@josephgrace5955]

I think it’s the same fight, but he also catches a kick from Zack on his shoulder, punches him in the groin and when Zack doubles over he uppercuts him into a backflip. It is a blink and you’d miss it but they censored it in the Power Rangers show

[@ondururagittandeska2004]

I think they also censored when Burai threw Tryano Rangers Sword and it damaged his suit.

[@DesMuttYS]

It's kind of weird that a show on broadcast television in the nineteen-nineties was less censored than a present day version on cable.

[@Yasuda9000]

Yep.

[@Rairosu]

At least the censorship is not 4KidsTV Level Censorship. They most likely will edit out the Rangers "guns" making them shoot invisible guns.

[@WrathfulVengence]

It’s funny how the parents reacted to the kids punching and kicking. Power rangers would’ve done much better with violence in the modern era. Violence is more widely accepted nowadays. 🎉🎉I think power rangers would’ve done better if they took more elements from Super Senti & mixed it with their American adaption. Instead of changing the whole overall idea of the ranger team. There would have been less plot wholes and they could’ve been more creative (instead of only using super senti footage). Also change up the dialogue. It would’ve been cooler if the mighty morphing rangers were more heavily linked with their individual dinosaur. What we got was felt like was Teenagers forced to be soldiers. Soldiers with Dino zords & “attitude”.

[@justinarzola4584]

If those parents thought Power Rangers was violent they would have a heart attack at all the blood and crotch shots in Super Sentai.

[@WrathfulVengence]

@@justinarzola4584 in those days parents would think a fly from our time is extremely violent.

[@GGX120]

«Would have done better if they took elements from Super Sentai»!?! Dude THEY have already took alot from Super Sentai!!! 🤣

[@WrathfulVengence]

@@GGX120 yah but they have to go one way or another. You can’t copy a Marvel films fight scenes ,change the story, and call it Super Universe. They need to make the choice between the two. Instead of half & half. That just creates plot holes. Either a complete adaption with censors or total creativity. Either copy or make ur own. Don’t steal another persons ideas and change them for an American audience. Imagine if Japan took footage from avengers and made it into teenagers that turn into heroes. Completely removing the character and stealing the hulk’s appearance.

[@WrathfulVengence]

Also I do think 2/10 times they get the show right with half & half but 8/10 the seasons will flop. I don’t hate power rangers it just could be better.

[@jsutton0010]

SPD having the criminal's contained makes sense, since they are a police force. 9/11 is what probably stopped Power Rangers from being shown in Australia in the early 2000's Wild Force, Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder weren't shown in Australia on Channel seven, Time Force was only shown after Midnight. Mystic Force was the first full Disney era season.

[@SpectacularSpiderFan]

During PMC, Ciara Hanna mentioned that the body swap episode was actually changed because Azim and John were better at mimicking other people, so the producers changed it

[@KhanhNguyen-mh5ec]

SO it's not censorship

[@SpectacularSpiderFan]

@@KhanhNguyen-mh5ec What? Edit because the original response was clarified: No it wouldn't be censorship. Just a change the producers made

[@BRUNOTHEECHIDNA]

They also did this so it was the Green Ranger who built the Super Mega Cannon (since in Gokaiger, Green was the geeky one instead of Blue). They mixed both episodes - the body swap episode and the cannon's debut - into a single one.

[@Rene-ij1ut]

@@BRUNOTHEECHIDNA Super Megaforce writers making a move that favors the plot? I'm Super Mega shocked

[@KotCR]

Yeah they had a girl-boy body swap in Dino Fury (Zayto/Amelia) and I'm fairly sure Dino Charge (Tyler/Shelby) too, which was right after Megaforce, so I doubt the gender swapping was really the issue. If they did it before Megaforce and they did it after Megaforce, chances are there was actually other reasons why they changed it in Megaforce. Nothing to do with censorship.

Unlike the american version of Power rangers,some characters of Super sentai had some of their helmets cracked during fighting scenes and Blood was shown how badly the characters were, and they could have some kids under the age of 12 and up if it wasn't edited🩸🩸.

[@michaelsanchez1361]

except time force

[@VlvrdMlgm]

I'm pretty sure the body swapping for The Grass is Greener...or Bluer was partly thanks to Sentai footage for the new finishing weapon cause Gokai Blue was in the fight, but he was the brains in Power Rangers; I say this cause 2 years ago, the Dino Fury Rangers swapped bodies & I remember Zayto & Amelia swapped. With Origami, in Japan, they were "Folding Gods" when translated into English, so it's not like they were just changing it cause the art of origami is Japanese entirely

[@flameblitz17]

I really love Power Rangers ever since I was a kid. Now that I think about it though, they made Power Ranger too kid friendly. Now I mostly enjoy Super Sentai and other Tokusatsu stuff since they're much better at balancing the kid friendly stuff and the more mature themes. I especially like that they're not afraid to kill off characters especially in Kamen Rider... although most of the times they just bring them back on the next episode, lol.

[@serPomiz]

while showa and the first half of heisei were really not shy on casualties, even when there really wasn't any real need. while it's true that many season really should stick to keep the deceased in line, I do agree

[@Castlerock15]

My favourite censorship moment is based on Engine Sentai Go-Onger and Power Rangers RPM. In Go-Onger, Land Pollution Minister Yogostein shoots a gear into Go On Red’s chest which causes him to collapse and become encased in a rust statue, you see at some points his spirit in some form of purgatory almost crossing over to the other side but fights it and returns to life to defeat Yogostein. In RPM, General Shifter shoots a gear into Scott’s chest, but it ends up becoming a device that allows shifter to control Scott’s body with his mind still in tack trying to fight it.

[@JinxeBlaq]

Jaden should’ve been Japanese, and the Super Megaforce ragers should’ve been pirates and I stand by that.

[@tiendang4440]

We can tell it was Saban's fault that made some stupid changes after the company bought the rights back from Disney and it nearly ruined the reputation of the PR franchise.

[@JinxeBlaq]

@@tiendang4440 I have no clue, it’s like, they were fine beforehand?? All they had to do was keep up the good storytelling of the Disney Era, but nah, Neo Saban only dropped one banger in Dino Charge, and everything else was meh.

[@ondururagittandeska2004]

I think the SMF body swap was because Saban wanted to use footage of Gokai Green with the Gokai cannon. In the orginal show Doc was the inventor. Dino Super Charge 2 years later had Tyler and Kimberly swap bodies so the body swap change wasn't due to censorship.

[@ronmangoba]

Perhaps the notable opposite is the "death" in Power Rangers when the pink Lost Galaxy Ranger Kendrix "died" by sacrificing herself (in real life, Valerie Vernon had to leave to receive treatment from Leukemia) but "returned to life" later. (While in Gingaman, the Pink Sentai Ranger never died) 6:15 that suit actor deserves a raise 😅😂

[@Alvinalonso2010]

In megaforce:boy in a girl's body no way!! Dino charge: Tyler and Shelby swap bodies for a whole episode😂

[@ryanstauffer119]

For the the Super Megaforce episode "The Grass is Always Greener... or Bluer", it could have worked to stick with the Super Sentai counterpart of having the Green and Yellow Rangers switching bodies since Jake and Gia did have feelings for each other. I know the purpose of body switching episodes on TV shows and movies is so people who are in arguments to learn from their mistakes which is why they had Jake and Noah switch. But it could have been interesting for Jake and Gia to switch though. Or perhaps Emma and Gia.

[@wCongo384]

Time force rangers travelling back to 2001 and not warning americans about 9/11 is absolutely diabolical

[@crazyknarf]

I believe censorship has to come from either the studio and/or the station airing the show. They do not want their stations censor group to say, "your show is too sexy for children" or "It is to violent and it will be banned from being aired." And remember the more monsters they aired the more they can sell as action figures. Remember it all about the money. (The actors in the orginal power rangers were not union and were paid peanuts for their performance.) Not sure if all Power Ranger Actors were Union or non-union. Saban made millions and toy companies made many millions of dollars in toy sales and the workers were able to barely buy groceries to feed themselves.

[@haroldalan7080]

I think the Directors of certain Power rangers had edit some of those scenes, because many of the scenes where either too inappropriate or probably some very intense scenes that can scare the kids of parents📺📺.

[@godtrue9205]

In Samurai/Shinkenger in the flashback they cut the Green and Blue's deaths with only yellow and pink and the red because one got arrowed to death and the other got impaled by a sword of the Moogers/Nanashi and was deemed violent.

Super Sentai is made for Kids to watch with their parents. This let's the show include scenes that parents who at one time were children who probably also saw the show see aspects of the they loved as kids. In English speaking countries parents expect Power Rangers to be a babysitter. Just some show they could dropped the kids in front of for a bit and expect them to not show scenes that might require Guidance as the in the "G" in PG or the equivalence of TV-Y7.

[@orelas167]

The fourth episode of PR Turbo begins with a same-sex wedding between Elgar and the monster of the week. The script is *never* explicit about it, but it's very obvious, and even more gay/LGBT subtext in the episode--the "detonator" (more censorship) is triggered when multicolored paint forms a "rainbow of colors". When the monster's destroyed, the bad guys are depressed as if they're in mourning, but again, they don't voice why.

[@wadeyhyena1657]

However, that doesn't mean that certain villains or ranger suits won't be used in future seasons, as there's still a use for them. They just won't be as common since the reboot wants to be 100% original, I just hope the show doesn't suffer because of it. I've always loved this franchise. (As a side-note, I doubt that games like Legacy Wars or Morphin" Legends will be affected by this, as the previous seasons can still be represented. It's possible that the reboot will be added to the roster, so no worries in regards to that.)

[@ryanstauffer119]

It is weird how they don't allow kissing anymore. There's nothing wrong with kissing. I mean, French kissing obviously is a no for kid shows. But regular kissing is totally fine. Other kid shows have it. Why not Power Rangers? Another time that kissing deserved to be seen on the show was In Space by Andros and Ashley at the end of the final episode when they were both hugging after Andros decided to go back to Earth. Without a kiss, it just feels not complete. Even the people that played Andros and Ashley agreed that their characters deserved a kiss scene and didn't like how they weren't allowed.

Fun fact, the Symbol power wasn't really a change. The term in Shinkenger was Mojikara- Kara being from Chikara or power, and Moji, well guess what E Moji or electronic symbol. So while the symbols in question were indeed Kanji, the term Mojikara was used to refer to the Magic of the symbols essentially. They used Symbol power to cause stuff like Horse to summon well a horse. So that was a direc translation rather han a censorship thing.

"Citizens Council" was also responsible for the collapse of entertaining educational programming as well. when you look at some of the shows kids ad in the early 1990s and before you are like compared to the early 2000s iGens do not know what they missed in educational programming.

Zyuranger is boring!?! 🤨 Mighty Morphin was cringe! Couldn’t even get through the 1st Eps🫣🤣

Jake and Noah swapped bodies because the actors were great at imitating eachother off set. Could there have been censorship involved? Maybe, but I wanted to mention this.

[@lightyearpig12]

Not really censorship, but Abaranger had a two-part crossover with a show called Tsuribaka Nisshi where the main character's son is fished out of the animated world by an Abaranger monster in the Abaranger world, and the titular fishing fool teams up with the Abarangers to save his son from the monster. Naturally, since no one had a clue what Tsuribaka Nisshi was since the anime was never dubbed into English, the crossover was cut and effectively replaced with the Lost and Found in Translation episode and the episode after that with the Mad Mackerel.

Este, as an E-Squad member, at this point, I wish Hasbro and Netflix could grant Ranger Nation a miracle and drop Cosmic Fury early. I'm sure if there was a big enough buzz, they'd do it.

[@sohini9447]

Wait... Dino charge did body swapped with girls and boys... Tyler swapped bodies with Shelby. Right?

[@tallietorchersproductions2740]

Yeah they did!

[@kingjoeyofoc]

This is why i like super sentai

[@thepeternetwork]

I brought up the scene in Mighty Morphin where Tommy transfers his shield to Jason during a mission, clearly Japanese footage. What I didn't know was the Japanese footage had the Red & Green Rangers as brothers as opposed to teammates learning to team.

He's not choking him out like a wwe fighter. He's got him at the chest.....like a wwe fighter. Lol

Simon bennet has saidly confirmed dury fury is the grand finale of power rangers and he doubts there is ever going to be another season again and that there was going to be a reboot but something happened and now there is no reboot.

[@serPomiz]

the serie is in the hand of hasbro, which aren't the last of the idiots when it comes to long-running serie. they are planning something, and the virtually inapproachable LuPat, Zenkaiger, donbrothers, and the really unappealing zuhoger and toqger really aren't giving them an easy life

[@jkilolboom9295]

For super megaforce it was probably plot reasons since gokai green is the engineer and not gokai blue

[@OtakuRC93]

The v rex esting subways and the theme song to the company. I chuckled

[@sonicranger8481]

We still can’t get over the fact that two ToQger villains were adapted.

[@estebangutierrez160]

I remembered in Dekaranger they used actually pistol guns.

[@Masonicon]

Bullet catch scene was censored into Laser catch scene

[@StevenMcSteve]

Personally I don't mind the change of the sushi Morpher thingy, I remember seeing it in a comparison video and thinking it was way too goofy, same with the burger morpher

[@ananalparabiabi1200]

That's show how cultural differences could be a problem, hence why power ranger samurai one of the worst season.

[@scottk1938]

Barza was throwing grenades at a kid to keep the kid from opening Burai’s vault.

[@combatking0]

You want a prime example of censored Sentai adapted into Power Rangers, try Episode 36 of Gekiranger. You've got the violence as you might expect, but there's also a perverted elephant man called Elehung (nani?!?) who gets touchy-feely with a trio of female thieves, excessive consumption of alcohol (leading to the use of drunken fist style Kung Fu), and one of the thieves trying to distract an excited Elehung by giving him a look up her skirt. You know, for kids!

[@talesyuki]

Half of those are censorships, the other half just feels like different story beats. Power Rangers uses footage of sentai, but it usually doesn't use the sentai for story inspirations. Different stories being told isn't censorship. xD

[@pkmntrsalad2225]

A few examples of censorship I’d like to bring up is the toning down of the things the mutants did in Time Force compared to Timeranger. In Timeranger we had the monsters hired as hitmen, setting up illegal underground casino, murdering hospital patients, and seducing the male rangers to name a few. When Time Force came over, they were toned to down or straight out replaced by something else. Like the underground casino plot being changed into the monster holding a bus of children as hostage or the monster seducing the rangers being altered into the monster using a spell to brainwash the rangers.

*I watch both power rangers and super sentai* Win win
