Donbrothers is genuinely one of THE show of all time, such a great sentai and will surely be missed. Though, I am excited with Kingohger, but there always will be an unfilled donbrothers hole inside my heart

I love how liberating it seems that Super Sentai felt when they no longer had to work with Saban

[@kagesentai]

finally someone who understands the core of Donbrothers, Donbros is all about the characters personal growths and making the monsters are part of natural cycle is genius

[@TheSandwhichman108]

I like the idea that for most of the series the monsters of the week are actually insecure people consumed by their desires. We see them as freaks when in reality they’re just people who desperately need help.

[@izuto727]

I just realized both the Sentai and Rider of 2022 have a "desire" theme

[@strikemanpop]

desire from getting high 😎

[@ularkurma]

Truly a sentai show of all times.

[@wafflesoldier7957]

This video made me realize why i love Jirou, Kijino, and Tsubasa. Thank you for such an amazing video essay. I know Tokusatsu is niche but i'd love to hear more of your perspective

[@AbareKillerFan-yo7pe]

At first I didn't liked Donbrothers at all, but suddenly I started to realize how great, deep and chaotic it is and it became one of my favorite Sentai seasons of all time

[@redred7702]

I’m just saying this series deserves a 7 hour long detailed episode to episode breakdown that covers every character’s arcs, motivations, ships, and behind the scenes content because holy shit was Donbrothers… Donbrothers.

[@Kepin151]

Still waiting for someone to actually make it happen 😂

[@Froaklies]

What do I live for? It's gotta be Damn Daniel tbh. I mean, not only is he there with the white vans, but how the narrator says "BACK at it again" implies that this is a common occurance. Comedy gold, truly.

[@Strike-hopper]

Most of this shows scene if not all the hole episode or frame could be turned into a meme template and another half of this show is genuine drama and characters that teach you good lesson or learn them for themselves to be little better then they were before even though they fall back into old bad habits they still try to better themselves and for others there no wrong way to live your life it's your life you can live it however you want just run away if you see peach falling down from the sky or be imprisoned by armored space knights or do it it's your life after all anyway donbrothers is my drug and it's tastes weirdly amazing lol

[@lemonboyswag]

Halfway through the video and I’m loving it!! Just a tidbit tho: Zenkaizer is the name of Kaito’s ranger form, ZenkaiGER is the name of the 45th Super Sentai team, “Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger”! All in all, I really feel the tokusatsu passion behind your review and can’t wait to see what you have next in store!!

[@sheesh7767]

i love when people talk about bizarre things with so much enthusiasm

I was always more of a Rider guy than a Sentai guy... Donbrothers changed my perspective. It even made me appreciate Inoue Rider series more.

donbrothers is like lsd a total acid trip

[@Zenkailord]

Toei was definitely Based and kibidango-pilled when making this.

[@luchomscyfy]

I think Donbrothers is great. Also, how to deconstruct the franchise, without being a depression fest or ruining characters like The Last Jedi. The "meta" aspect is brilliant and subtle that is not that intrusive to make an issue to the plot. And the character behave as "anti Sentai" sometimes, without becoming a group of psychos or supervillians. Every has a flaw, or it has a personality that goes against the tropes of Sentai. It’s brilliant.

[@ZetaIotaOmega]

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Donbrothers is one of my favourite show in general. Saruhara got me into haikus. This vid I have watched On this strangely cold spring day Is pretty well made!

[@kuggacouragegx6093]

[@ZetaIotaOmega]

@@kuggacouragegx6093 Not much to be honest. Jetman, Maskman, Bioman, Shinkenger, Goseiger, Kiramager and I'm currently watching King-Ohger and Gokaiger,

[@mouthyschannel2474]

If there's one thing that I take sick sadistic pleasure in is that this season it outright hated by a fair amount of people. Do I think that hate is unwarranted or even outright stupid? Yes. But it's them hating the show for what it sets out to be that makes me love the show even more than I did before, if that was even possible for being my favourite season. There was no big bad to take down, the bad guys were always possibly more good guys than our heroes, nothing happened in the show and that was the entire strength of it, it's all hated by a lot of people. That's when you know you've created something worth the film it's printed on, when it's equally beloved as a lot of people's favourite season as well as being a controversy in the fanbase for being different. So yeah, thank you Donbrothers for being something entirely different we all needed.

From time to time, I do wonder how would you explain donbrothers as a concept to people outside of the toku fandom, especially westerners.

[@ryujin876]

Donbrothers is the show

[@ark-0yt148]

Most of the members of the Don Brothers really hate Momoi for being a total jerk and a royal pain in the arse at first. They believed that every red ranger, aka the leader of every sentai team, are cruel dictator and nutjob who orders around his comrades like pushover corporate slaves they're shocked at how nice Abarared is in their crossover.

DonBrothers The Abridged Tokusatsu Series

[@NearingLostLight]

I will die on the hill that this is the best sentai ever

[@zaragachizanparo4948]

The biggest surprise to me from what you've described of this series is that the writers didn't make the male Pink Ranger an ultra-flamboyant homosexual. I salute the writer for being as creatively innovative as he is by doing something unexpected that still makes sense of the character. Most other writers would have just defaulted to making him a walking gay joke. Some "writers" would take this approach to cater to the mythical "modern audience" only to be offended when people laugh at their "unintended" joke character. Other writers would make this joke on purpose and see how far they can push the homo-erotic innuendos while tragically forgetting to write an actual arc for the character as he devolves into pure comedic "relief". The fact that the writer seems to have written a fleshed-out character with this concept and managed to do it WITHOUT MAKING HIM A GAY JOKE is beyond impressive.
