Kaiju no Kami Reviews - Chikyuu Sentai Fiveman (1990) Series

[@TheArceusftw]

Fun fact: Arthur G6 is voiced by Rika Matsumoto, the Japanese voice of Ash from Pokemon.(As well as a singer for several Japanese Pokemon openings, and the Opening to Kamen rider Ryuki.)

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

If I recall, she was also the second voice of Bakura in Yu-Gi-Oh!. What's funny is that I forgot to look up Arthur's voice for the review. I looked up every other actor's bio EXCEPT Rika's. DOH!

Fiveman is one of does Sentai shows that has a great concept but were never utilize more and it's sad because there's a lot of thing this show can pull off Example: - Keep the rivalries between FiveRed and Garoa till the end - After Fiveman find out their parents still alive from Gunther, they trying to find more clues on their whereabouts - Since the Fiveman were teachers, the school from the first episode should've been rebuild earlier so they could had more interaction with students, teachers and other staff members and maybe trying to find a way to sneak out of the school to go fight monsters And yes you made a good point that Hirohisa Soda burnt out his ideas so I can't really blame him

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

Yeah, they didn't do much with their parents until the very end.

[@Isaac-gh5ku]

Makes you wonder why Toei couldn't find other writers to create Fiveman since Hirohisa Soda should have retire much earlier than continuing working for Toei for nearly 10 years.

In my opinion, unique concept with each member has their own expertise in academics and martial art. Also, the concept of sibling love.

It does have that. There was a lot I loved about the show, it's just that it dove into mediocrity so badly.

1:28 Yes, worse than Ohranger and Carranger from what I heard, and it said that Fiveman nearly brought an end to Super Sentai.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

Well Sentai was already on the verge of cancelation thanks to Turboranger, but yeah, Jetman was going to be the end thanks to Fiveman.

One thing Fiveman has going for it are the visuals. The ranger costumes are superb, I like the set designs especially for the villains, and the fight scenes look awesome at times.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

lol If the puppets had been something introduced right at the beginning, I probably wouldn't have minded. However, the show's tone just does a complete 180 with the puppets, making them feel tacked on as if Toei wanted to attract younger viewers at the last minute.

[@disneyboy3030]

At least they came from another dimension so I guess you can say that the Fiveman and Gerowa were cheering themselves on.

[@mikesilva3868]

[@TheIgorMeta]

Years ago I watched the first 3 episodes and enjoyed it very much. It felt very much nostalgic to me that grew up watching Changeman, Flashman, Maskman and Goggle V. Now that I found the whole show with subs I watching it and just passed the half of it. Although the first half is pretty enjoyeable, I'm getting less interested in Fiveman as the tone grows inconsistent. I don't think the show is that bad but the shift in tone sucks and so is the lack character development (specially on the villains). I only recommend this show to people who really like old sentai and had already watched Bioman, Changeman, Flashman, Maskman, Liveman, Jetman and is looking for another sentai to watch.

That's a first that I didn't get you to do an "lol" from that.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

I wouldn't expect Turboranger until either the end of this year or early next year at this point. I think they're going to start trending a release every quarter (the only reason we had 5 last year was due to Megaranger's delay in 2017) so it will probably be July/Aug for Fiveman and Nov/Dec for Abaranger. As for the lol responses, usually I use that or a smiley as my way of acknowledging I have read your comment but don't have anything witty to respond with. :-D

1:30 seeing that Kamen Rider had a hiatus, I wonder what could've happen if Super Sentai decided to go on a break, other than allowing Saban to catch up on the skipped Sentai, but I wonder at that time how it might affected Power Rangers like starting with Jetman for example instead of Zyuranger. 3:33 don't worry, we all want to forget that Megaforce happened. 5:35 well here's someone who won't get along with Hammy. 7:04 I AM A MAN!! 8:48 I do miss the combined weapons of the Rangers.

It’s an interesting approach that toei decided to make the team a bunch of teachers after last year turboranger. Also, fiveblack might be separated from five yellow like dynapink and her husband dynayellow. Their oldest daughter look exactly like fiveyellow. He’s even an active youtuber now. Fiveblack actor said he passed the audition to play the eleventh kamen rider according to his socials. Rx wasn’t originally meant to be a sequel hence the suit being predominantly green, but due to kamen rider black success led toei to sign kotaro actor for another year, so fiveblack actor was offer a role in fiveman instead the same year. At least the 11th series wasn’t entirely scraped like zx after it movie special didn’t became a massive hit.

Despite the rumor that it was Chouriki Sentai Ohranger that nearly killed off Sentai, this season is the one that nearly caused the franchise to end, due to low ratings AND very low toy sales (likely because seemingly all the toys for this series were badly designed and shoddily made- one Five Blaster toy yellowed despite being put in storage for a year after having been opened once), although other shows have had lower ratings since then, it's worth noting that in those cases, said ratings were usually offset by toy sales; Ohranger, which had ratings of 4.452% in comparison to Fiveman's ratings of 6.49%, had some of the best toy sales in the entire franchise, selling 15.9 billion yen; although we don't know the toy sales numbers for all the pre-Jetman series, it can be assumed that they were lower than those of Mirai Sentai Timeranger or Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, which sold 4 billion yen and 5.4 billion yen worth of toys respectively, if only due to the fact that Toei didn't consider canceling Sentai after those shows. There were reports of Japanese toy stores having scores of unsold Max Magma toys

@@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork why did you delete the files.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

Because I'll never watch the series again unless it has an official US release. I've been deleting nearly every series I've reviewed because if I'm going to rewatch a Sentai show, it's going to be the ones I physically own on DVD. The only exception right now has been Gekiranger.

I feel like in the Super Sentai Series and in Power Rangers, whenever the heroes have a Super form or they have a Super Robo, they'll continue using it at times when it's not necessary. I feel like it makes the forms weaker from each battle. Also, the second-in-command of Goggle V was Goggle Black.
