IT'S HENSHIN TIME! The History of Super Sentai & Power Rangers - Part 1: Shotaro Ishinomori

[@zerogranger]

Seriously this whole history of super sentai and power rangers that you're doing is simply AMAZING!! I love it

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Glad you're enjoying it so far, and thank you for watching! :)

[@MrWeenieProductions]

Totally awesome man. =)

[@emmie796]

I LOVE how well done The History of Super Sentai and Power Rangers videos are. They are also super informative and I want to learn more about the seasons of Super Sentai but I can't find much on my own. I'm very happy that these videos exist for people like me who want to learn more

[@TheFaithHashira]

Great job guys. I love documentaries like this, especially when they expunge things we, as casual american fans, never knew or could fathom. Excited about part 2!

[@riomigz1305]

I love how you changed the thumbnails. So awesome :-)

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Thank you, we wanted to give it all a consistent look! :)

[@riomigz1305]

Nice! No problem dude :-)

[@trailbreaker2011]

Cool stuff! I always wanted to know a bit more about the origins of Masked Rider in the U.S. Keep up the good work!

[@ASDhelper]

I love it how he imagined his ideas over and over that is smart and cool

[@icancounttopotato8724]

Awesome video. This actually explains everything, and I couldn't for the life of me find the origins of both. Thank you! Man does this bring me back to childhood!

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! We have Parts II & III uploaded as well!

[@icancounttopotato8724]

Already watched them by the time you commented! We need part 4 STAT! Lol. Thanks again

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Stephan Hunter Thanks again! Working on Part IV!

[@Firedrake-SP]

I think the producers of The Outer Limits or The Twilight Zone would of been a good choice to make a U.S. adaption of Kamen Rider in the early or mid 70s.

[@KajiRider1997]

08:18 And Gatchaman, do not forget about Gatchaman!

[@FFX2KH2Master]

my god. This is perfect! Ive been considering putting together something like this for the longest time yet time at work and school has kept me away from it, is is exactly what I ve been looking for to show people just starting off in the fantastic world of Sentai Thank you so much!

[@beckhamsreviews3733]

Please bring back the history of super Sentai and power rangers to oHranger and power rangers zeo

[@ignaciocue]

Words pronounced wrong in this video: "Hongo" "Himitsu" "Kikaider" "Manga" "Ishinomori"

[@pn2294]

He’s a westerner. Cut him some slack.

[@Ratchetcomand]

I've been waiting for some type of documentary for Shotaro Ishinomori. Great work!

[@luisalbertoarenasaraya4579]

The wait was long but worth it. Subbed

[@ZeldaSuperSonicMario]

Besides the way you say Manga this is so good 👍

[@ZeldaSuperSonicMario]

Also the way you say toei

[@ToyBountyHunters]

That's how we said it in the good ol' days. ;)

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

feels like a school history lesson

[@TomBrienProfessional]

This is god damn amazing. It blows my damn mind that out of nowhere, kids' shows were men in tights doing karate in the desert to thrash-metal. For about 10 years. Then they stopped. I have the loosest understanding of how MMPR came about, so I hope you guys go into ALL THE DETAILS! Kamen Rider turned into "Masked Rider" on Fox Kids, and through this stuff you can even see where the live-action Batman series came from! Hope this documentary goes well for you guys!

[@MYTRIBALCHIEF95]

Good video man!Love Super Sentai and its to see where Power Rangers'roots come from:)

[@budget3121]

This is informative thanks man

[@bigm832]

This is awesome. Great stuff. Can't wait for more.

[@Montyboy63]

Very nice start, looking forward to seeing more.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

The repetitive posing that the main hero does before transforming is the reason why its memorable

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

It's why jojo pose.

[@SamShadow93]

I love this Super Sentai documentary, it's very comprehensive ! Subbed

[@sm4carnageihope]

Wow, this is great can't wait for more. I am so subscribing.

[@dekaritheprofessor2631]

I love this!!!! Sooo sorry I haven't checked out this series before now!!

[@Firedrake-SP]

This should be on dvd!

[@Morgil27]

Henshin-a-go-go, baby!

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

It's Morphin time!

[@pancakepower1006]

This is very interesting, keep up the good work!

[@dianenaruse8723]

The opening theme song sounded like opening song of GoGo V and I can't wait for the part 2 of this x)

[@ChicagoBandHead]

omg. 20 years ago this spring MMPR debuted. I was 10 years ago. wow where has the time gone!! I miss the 90s with a passion!

[@OCftball009]

Loving this video guys! Keep up the good work.

[@zadeh79]

Thanks for the nostalgia! Keep up the good work!

[@djshefu]

Nicely done. Glad to see that you've done your homework & know ALL the facts about the father of tokusatsu. I am looking forward to part 2 with great anticipation! I do hope that you mention the Space Sheriff series as well. And I am wondering if you're going to cover/mention the shows that came out because of the Power Rangers 'boom' in the 90s. ( VR Troopers, Superhuman Samurai Cyber-Squad, Beetleborgs, etc..)

[@SacredKnives2chNEO]

What are you guys looking at during the interview... It's almost like a parody. I like some parts of the video, though..

[@Janisurai]

a script?

[@danielmcdonough3236]

When this is complete it should be released on DVD. It's really well done!

[@codybellotti0565]

Yeah

[@USSMariner]

As of Gokaiger, it's been confirmed without a doubt that the proper Romanization is Gorenger, as the GorenGokai-Oh wouldn't be possible if the name was Goranger.

[@Ezad99]

3 Years Later,we're barely 1/4 of the way their in completing this series XD

[@darkmyro]

so the creator of the cyborg 009 and kamen rider is also the creator of the power rangers omg that is so awesome i didn't know that!! Its really funny how things tie together like that XD sorta like six degrees of seperation

[@oscarnjboy]

i'm binge watching these..

[@snakes3425]

my all time favorite show as a kid

[@XIIIPunk]

Awesome stuff bro

[@Janisurai]

awesome work, thanks!

[@Observador0123]

awesome video!

[@combatking0]

It's amazing to see where the influences came from for Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, and from there the various works which have been influenced by those two shows.

[@Headtheif101]

mmm, I did not know that the same guy who made Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, also made Cybog 009. You learn something new everyday. Look forward to seeing more.

[@linkage432]

Pop filter please :) other than that the video was awesome. Can't wait for part 2

[@Mespino826]

Man I can't wait for more

[@SlackerMagician]

I'm just trying to find a clip of someone actually saying "It's HENSHIN time!!"

[@lalomontoyajr.9282]

Watch Kamen Rider Black RX! There he says it! He doesn't say "It's Henshin time!". But he does scream out "Henshin!!" and it's even written on the screen!

[@TsukiCondor]

Fun Fact,The 1970s Skullman hasnt had a official released only fan translations. How ever in 1998 to 2001 before the death of Inshinmori teamed up with Kazuhiko Shimamoto and it was a reboot. That series was translated by Tokyo Pop where there is Camos of classic heros like Cyborg 009 ( the character),Kamen Rider Itchigo, Henshin Ninja Arashi (A less known creation),Gorenger,Kikaider and Inzuman just to name a few

[@TsukiCondor]

I also own Volume 1 and 5 of it

[@magicMosquito]

It's finally here, the first installment of a fantastic Docuspective of the Power Rangers. As everyone can see we kept our promise, the first episode is out and no new episodes of Ninjai have surfaced yet. LoL!

[@homersimbson]

lovely work but i would recommend shorter intro and better mic and noise filters . nonetheless great infos

[@Sirstas79]

Wish you could combine this into one long special.

[@magicMosquito]

Part 2 is currently in production, and should be available by the summer, however stay tuned there is additional content in the meantime, that we know you'll enjoy. ;)

[@SmokeVHS]

Robocon was never dubbed it was only shown in Hawaii with subtitles on KIKU-13, I know....I watched it as a kid. A few English packaged merchandise was released hence the book you have seen. Also the English Hawaiian dub of Ultra Seven was done by Tsuburaya themselves. They would hire local talent and college students to produce that Ultra Seven dub.

[@DarkSlayer977]

There was a live action Skull Man episode for the anime.

[@Scsigs]

Awesome when's part 2 coming? Also, MistareFusion made a similar series about the early years of Power Rangers & the Sentai Series' they were adapted from & I'm making a series like this about Gokaiger, you might wanna check them out sometime.

[@SurAuvers]

What is the name of the track at 6:30 or what series soundtrack is it from?

[@Albie28]

when is part II comin out ?? thanks for the history lesson , now i know why i enjoy masked rider as well as super sentai

[@joeleubanks6525]

[@tinotormed]

Nice. In the Philippines, it was known as Star Rangers btw, which aired on RPN 9 back in the old days.

[@wolfknight248]

[@Abnjop]

[@justinsigler1565]

[@ShadowKamen95]

[@Grillman45600]

thank you I love this video ^_^

[@jawanxp99]

Ive noticed that alot of the comments say wheres part 2 well its out now but these take alot of time to make theres alot of research going into this and editing takes awhile

[@jerransperarman9411]

Good video

[@sm4carnageihope]

What website do you use to watch Super Sentai subbed? I want to start from the beginning with Goranger and work my way up, but i can only find a subbed version of episode 1.

[@Digger318]

Dude, you REALLY need a pop screen, they cost like under $20 on ebay. Also it would be a good idea to import everything you record into audacity or record with audacity so the sound quality is improved. just a tip ;)

[@internetposer8172]

I fucking love this series

[@ToyBountyHunters]

LOL! Thanks!

[@skrates4382]

I have always wanted to learn about every series and seasons of the super sentai series plots, suits styles and megazords. I am commenting before watching this. Hope that this is what it's about lol

[@ToyBountyHunters]

In a way, yes that's what this series is about. We go over the evolution of the Super Sentai series before it finally made it over here as Power Rangers.

[@skrates4382]

Yes I finished watching all your episodes and now I am waiting for more. Everything was so interesting. Thanks for making these

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Sk Roules You're welcome! Thank you for watching them! We have the next part coming pretty soon here. Feel free to subscribe so you don't miss it! We cover some other stuff as well!

[@skrates4382]

Subbed.

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Sk Roules Thanks for the support bud! Enjoy the ride!

[@jerranspearman3369]

good video

[@Morgil27]

Sometime in the early to mid 2000s, I remember seeing a short Android Kikaider anime on Adult Swim. It was only a few episodes long, but I remember loving it's dark and serious tone juxtaposed with a very cartoonish art style. I would love to see that show again. I wonder if its ever had any modern DVD releases.

[@markalewalker5972]

8:12 what song is playing in the background it sounds like a mega man theme

[@nw08]

It's from Seiju Sentai Gingaman the inspiration of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy

[@projectkisaragi]

I Love IT!!!,..cant wait for Part 2!!! >_

[@abnjop29]

It's summer!!!!! Where part 2!!!!!!!!!!

[@KnightedSilverWolf]

oh btw you forgot to mention that 009 cyborgs were created to stop black ghost. But moved onto kamen rider. Lol where did he go?

[@Firedrake-SP]

So Skull Man is more like The Punisher, right?

[@anthonywyattStylist]

This SHIT NEEDS AN UPDATE

[@princessmaly]

Love the celebrity endorsement at the end. ;o

[@etiennebland8964]

I would like to know what Japan people considered as too dark cuz people be getting shot stabbed melted in Super Sentai

[@loreaver3882]

Japan has some dark history, Kamikaze. Hiroshima. Allying with Nazis...

[@pacetti07]

You could also say that HENSHIN simply means MORPH!

[@EvanChu0815]

HENSHIN means transform

[@CodyTheDragonSamurai]

As well as transformation, and/or Change Body.

[@wagdawgwag872]

Henshin means a lot of things, but most of them are synonyms.

[@duelverse8410]

pacetti07 yeah!!!!

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

Transmogrify Persona are sentai?!

[@coldgindrinker5587]

Are you familiar with a KZbinr that did a history of Mecha?

[@ToyBountyHunters]

+Cold Gin Drinker I don't think so.... but that sounds interesting! What is his or her name?

[@coldgindrinker5587]

+Toy Bounty Hunters ProfessorOtakuD2

[@ToyBountyHunters]

Cold Gin Drinker Cool thanks! I'll have to look into his channel.

[@coldgindrinker5587]

+Toy Bounty Hunters Maybe do a crossover about the history of Super Sentai Mecha

[@romaindelaval8481]

Nice research job you Ve done here.... but Ain't Ultraman is also a big inspiration for the sentai shows?

[@PowerDrone13]

it's August where's part 2?

[@gregycka11]

Where's the part 2 guys?

[@Digger318]

have a look at normalize under the effects tab in audacity, it's really useful to make all audios sound on the same level, i used it all the time. PS: check out the lego kamen rider animations i have done on my youtube! ;) kamen rider Kiva will be fighting a joker alien in lego batman vs aliens vs predator. in 2 days lol

[@hacksouregamingmmprr3003]

R.I.P Shotaro Ishinomori

[@aaroNiGHTS]

Would really recommend you get a pop filter for whatever Microphone you use.

[@elieeee6]

With the intro theme is

[@KeepJesusFirst]

A doc on PR & Sentai? Cool idea. Just make sure please you mention about STAR RANGERS & LUCKY ACES , the 1st 2 English Dub attempts that got Sentai on US TV. Hopefully more of this will be found along with the Asian English Dubs of JETMAN, FLASHMAN, TURBORANGER etc. Anyone else out there looking for KAMEN RIDER or CYBERCOP English Dubs? Its not Sentai but similar. I'll share freely. Check out INAZUMAN English Pilot too. Asians should be shown Equality by USTV Networks & not completely replaced.

[@demetrionieves4th540]

When's part 11 coming out?

[@azumarill1403]

I remember buying a Power Rangers game that was mislabeled, it was actually Choujin Sentai Jetman for the Famicom, it's a fun game and it's music is just the best, but i don't know anything about Super Sentai besides the Power Rangers.

[@magicMosquito]

Yes the mike needs footwear or a screen, LoL! As more episodes are uploaded you will hear better quality. All around we will be creating something that is only going to get better all around as more episodes to this docuspective are released. Stay tuned... I have always wanted to say that :)

[@jamessmall3536]

Is their a part 3

[@wvargas0000]

When is part 2 coming out

[@Grillman45600]

where I can find part 2

[@Ya_boymanJ]

Where's part 2 ?

[@magicguy1988]

Just thought I'd point out that technically speaking Gorenger and JAKQ are not Super Sentai until Toei gave them that designation

[@ToyBountyHunters]

That's right initially they weren't, until Toei retroactively included them. We cover that in Part 2 actually... ;)
