you forgot turboranger and carranger well i know your turbo is carranger

[@batmantsh]

Turbo robo was part of Kousoku sentai Turboranger, but Gekisou sentai Carranger was where Power rangers turbo used footage from they just used turbo cause of turboranger

[@batmantsh]

The ones where you asked if they were organic just like mystic force/magiranger the rangers becomes the zords and when they combine they rangers are still the zords so no cockpit or anything they basically feel everything

[@MBarrios2024]

Fun fact, the mechas for Super Sentai were inspired by the TOEI company's Japanese Spider-man TV Show when he had a mech of his own called Leopardon.

[@imbrandon3023]

And the constant use of stock footage was inspired by the fact that they had to reuse footage of the mech, cause the suit got stolen halfway through production.

[@jpcsdutra]

People greatly exagerate the merits of Spiderman because of the now famous Marvel-Toei deal, but it probably wasn't the cause, main or only. Japan was migrating *hard* into giant robots by then and it would have happened regardless. Asahi (Rider and Sentai's channel to this day) had previously had a mildly successful show about a giant robot controlled by a kid more than 5 years before, Mecha Godzilla was already a thing, Ultraman was the undisputed TV king of the time and was all about giant battles. Even on the anime side, Mazinger Z and Tetsujin 28 were massively popular. There was very little reason for Battle Fever to have been inspired by that show, since it came just the year prior and it was not that succesful on release and only was elevated to meme status quite recently. At 41 episodes released it had even less episodes than the average season of such a show would at around 50, it was also never greenlit for season 2 or extended. Leopardon itself was only put in that show because it would attract the public more, meaning they knew exactly what they were doing, and it wasn't a guess that suddenly paid off that needed to be copied.

[@MBarrios2024]

@@jpcsdutra I see, but that's what I heard from others.

[@serPomiz]

@@jpcsdutra yes, but others shows were "this is the giant robot, this is the story of the crew of the giant robot, and in the last 3 to 4-and-a-half" minute he will fight and win. aside from ultraman, which had a different approach to storytelling altogether at that point, and for more than a few years after that leopardron was the "story has been going, normal sized has been fighting, let's throw it in as a bonus" which is how sentai fight went after that it was the mixing of multiple ingredients that were known to work on it's own, that allowed to capitalize on in. there's no doubt a "robotless battlefever" was being drafted before the success of leopardron confirmed it as a valid thing to fully invest on and carve a nice little niche in a consistent cycle

[@KingCasual1986]

⁠@@imbrandon3023that still pisses me off to this day. Did NOBODY think to make a spare mech suit in case it got stolen?

[@madamered1103]

40:45 it's funny that you mention Zyuranger being an extremely good starting point, and it is, some people may think the clarification for Pre-Zyu and Post-Zyu sentai is because of Power Rangers, but it actually goes from the fact that Zyuranger basically revolutionized the franchise, from being the first full on fantasy theme sentai, the first ever dinosaur sentai, the first show with a 6th ranger and the first show with an extra mecha that combined with the main one, alongside being one of the few early sentai with a designated mech for every team member (idk if you noticed but a lot of the earlier ones either were a single ship or were vehicles shared between 2), it basically set a whole blueprint for the franchise going forward, that's why it's so important as a middle ground

[@gryphman]

You're incorrect on a couple points. JAKQ was the first to introduce an extra ranger with Big One, and Maskman was the first to introduce a 6th ranger with X1 Mask. Zyuranger was the first one to popularize it, though. Liveman was the first to have a second mecha that combined with the main one to make a super mode, with Live Boxer, which combined with Live Robo to make Super Live Robo. Turboranger, Fiveman, and Jetman also had it.

[@madamered1103]

@@gryphman MB on the mech one, yeah, but on the other ones, eeeeeeeeh, I did specify 6th, Big One is always flipflopping but it usually stays as a "semi official main member" ala Abare Black, and X1 Mask is faaaar from a true 6th, Zyu basically created the new hero blueprint, and all the prior ones are closer to what we classify now as extra heroes

[@adrianferdiansyah2136]

​@@madamered1103 Let me correct some of the facts thou -Bioman is the one showing the first Prototype 6th Sentai *Magna Warrior -Maskman with X1 Mask is the official Prototype Sentai with Lore accurate to be the first Maskman and 2nd Prototype 6th Sentai member. -Zyuranger is officialy reveal the official 6th Sentai member, the Dragon Ranger. -First extra heroes is Signalman from Carranger, while Big One is consider the core member of JAQK. -Flashman showing the first 2nd Mecha, Titan boy. Then the Liveman showing the combining 1st and 2nd Mecha, the Super LiveRobo. Then followed with some of the series. -Turboranger and Liveman is considered too as the 1st series with their base as the final gattai

[@striberx]

Here's a fun fact for the day. The robo/mecha voice for BoomBoomger (the current sentai series) is the JP voice for Ash Ketchum/Satoshi from Pokemon.

Also, the truck mecha is sentient, and is named Bundorio Bunderas. The sixth ranger's sentient Zord (a formula one race car) is named Byun Diesel.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

Fun fact: the toys for some of the pre-Power Rangers Mecha were available in the US during/after the runs of their respective series. I have an old copy of _Boy’s Life_ magazine (which my dad won at a silent auction at a BSA event) that has a list of prizes for a fundraising campaign on the back two pages. One of the numerous prizes is a Bio Robo toy.

[@justinarzola4584]

Bandai America had a toyline in the 80's called "Godaikin" that featured robots from their properties, including The Mecha from Sun Vulcan, Bioman and Goggle V, that was probably what that magazine was advertising.

[@shibumi8]

Amusingly if I remember correctly it took the Jetman team two episodes to get to their robot. You actually get to see them training to fly in formation and all difficulties that come with it. And I actually did have the toy for Jet Icarus, unfortunately it was the non combining barely an action figure one. 😢

[@bruceleeds7988]

Fun Fact: The first character to ever have a Kaiju-Buster Mecha was Spiderman.

[@gryphman]

Spider-Man is directly responsible for Super Sentai getting mecha. Originally there was going to be a followup to Spider-Man, based on Captain America, called Captain Japan. The show got scrapped, and retooled into Battle Fever J.

[@azeezbashir1734]

@@gryphmanOkay now I’m kinda upset we never got a Captain America inspired character called Captain Japan and for him to have his own mech. It sounds like it would be fun

[@jpcsdutra]

Not really true. Giant Robots were already a genre for close to a decade by that point. He was maybe, and that's a big maybe, first super hero to have a dedicated mecha for that. Kaiju-busting mecha had been a thing since Mecha Godzilla if not longer.

[@jpcsdutra]

@@gryphman Indirectly at best. None of the agreements or original designs for the TOEI-Marvel agreement came out of the page as intended and that retooling most likely only ever happened after Ishinomori got kicked out of JAKQ for making the show too dark. The spiderman show itself was already a massive retool of itself, that added aliens and robots exactly because they feared it wouldn't be succesful. They added Leopardon *because* giant robots were popular, Leopardon didn't start or popularize the trend in spite of being the most memorable aspect of that show. It would have happened to Sentai anyway. People only say that because it barely predates BFJ by a couple of months. At that point in time TOEI was making rivers of money with things like Mazinger Z, Combattler and other mecha anime. Ishinomori himself had already written Daitetsujin 17 for Asahi a year prior to Spiderman, and it also featured a giant robot that battled other giant robots. Japan was knee deep into giant robots as a genre that entire decade. They didn't even air on the same channel or were made by the same staff. The show just wasn't popular enough to inspire anyone by itself.

[@gryphman]

@@jpcsdutra I'm not the one who said it started the giant robot trend. I just said it was the reason Super Sentai has them.

“Saban gypped us on the suits.” Not completely. Kiba Ranger’s suit was used for Tommy’s White Ranger form, and the other five Dairanger suits made an appearance in _Super Megaforce._

13:50 Thank God, you mentioned about Dairangers suit Saban decided not to use. Because they're too scared it would alienated the kids, when it's been like that since forever for the super sentai counterparts. And yeah, it's just a damn shame, and be more work for them because they can't use the japanese recordings and had to record new stuff just with the monster suit.

[@TheErsu]

Turboranger was the 1989 series. Power Rangers Turbo was the American name for Carranger, which was the 1996 series.

[@ripleyjlawman.3162]

They actually reused and re-dressed the cockpit sets from Jetman for Zyuranger. And the word isn’t Sixth Sentai, (because that word translates to task force or squadron depending on context,) the word you’re looking for is Senshi which generally means warrior/soldier/guardian, or if we’re translating based on the contextual usage hero/ranger.

[@azeezbashir1734]

So the ranger are called Senshi? Thank you so much, I have been thinking about the sentai counterpart for the title “rangers” since that’s an American thing , so thanks for this

The one after Kyuryo( OG of American adaptation) is Gosei Sentai, which is inspired by Chinese Mythology and Chinese legendary creatures.

[@majinlifestyle]

So the answer of are the mecha alive can be answered with, sometimes they’re alive but it varies in levels. Like the mecha in hurricanger is not alive, but the components for the mecha in king ohger and kyoryuger are alive but not to the degree in which they can speak. Meanwhile you have the components in something like kiramager or go-onger where they are fully sentient complete with the ability to speak. Then there’s Zenkaiger and Donbrothers where it fully goes off the rails by making their own sentai members becoming parts of the mecha and combining together. Like it varies from show to show.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

They skipped the Varidreen (the Gorangers’ second flyer which was introduced to replace the destroyed Variblune)

[@fransuke12]

Donbrothers members had their Robo forms. So probably their the first sentai team that doesn't have a cockpit.

[@DarkAnon100]

Not the first, the Kakurangers don't have a cockpit when they use Muteki Shogun (due to them also becoming their Mecha) and the Magirangers don't have one either as MagiDragon but they do have one as MagiKing

[@ViroVeteruscy]

Oh just to add on I think people stopped caring about Power Rangers. I know a lot of people who are like “if it is not Mighty Morphin it isn’t Power Rangers “ and that is wrong. We have 30 years of Power Rangers. Hopefully it will continue with Hasbro but I doubt it. The Netflix deal is out, so they are looking for a new platform which I doubt they will fine. Man! I wish I had enough money to buy off Power Rangers and make my own cable show. I would be making deals with Japan to show Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, etc. Ok now going to watch that video lol

[@izzadk86]

In Sentai there are more sentient zords compared to the Power Rangers series, and I'm not only talking about like wild force they are sentient but still act like animals, but there are some series like Abarenger (Dino Thunder) where the dinozords can talk like normal people, it's kinda like a mix rotation, 1 season the zords can talk, 1 season they are sentient but can't talk human language, 1 season 100% machine, and some rare cases the sentai become the zords themselves
