Save your tears for something sad, because there’s nothing sad here. I have lived a privileged and an interesting life, and now it’s time to go.

Status Post #11452 (reblog): He'll always be missed here.

Let your passion be the reason for your existence.

From the age of four, I was passionate about martial arts. But one day my mother suggested I become an actor, and the thought stirred my soul, so I took her advice. My first acting role was for an untitled project that would come to be known to us all as Power Rangers. I remember walking into the callback auditions and being surrounded by girls. My first thought was, "is the Green Ranger a girl or a boy?" I laughed at the thought. Although I was confused which part I was exactly auditioning for, I remember helping one of the girls with her karate moves. That same girl ended up being cast as Trini the Yellow Ranger.

Like everything I do, I put my passion into acting and into the role I was given: Tommy Oliver, the Green Ranger. Every day on set I would arrive early and go from department to department learning the ins and outs of filmmaking. I put my heart, soul, and karate into the role of Tommy. I was only hired for ten episodes, but I made sure that for those episodes, I would give Tommy my all. Tommy Oliver was a lot like me, the loner kid who spent most of his time training. But Tommy and I developed together. We learned the importance of friendship, as Tommy turned from loner to a key part of the Ranger team. Tommy was passionate about his friends, martial arts, and becoming an outstanding member of his community. This is something that I would carry with me long after my time in Power Rangers was complete.

You cannot fathom my shock and happiness when thousands of letters and phone calls from parents came in asking for the return of my character to Power Rangers. The Green Ranger, Tommy, had left such an impact on thousands of children that they were sad about his departure, even refusing to eat or go to school. For the first time in my life, I understood that I was a hero to so many. Through my role as Tommy, I was able to motivate children to be altruistic and develop moral reasoning. I loved being able to travel the country and the world with my co-stars and act as role models.

Twenty-five years later, the Power Rangers remain role models and well-loved by all. With the outstanding love and support from fans around the world, which grows greater and greater as time passes, nothing makes me more proud than to have been Tommy Oliver and continue to show everyone my passion for life and the arts.

Luckily, I can relive and experience the story of Tommy in BOOM! Studios' Power Rangers comic books. The story of my most beloved character, and the rest of the Power Rangers, has come to life on paper. BOOM! has put together such an amazing story, one that goes into depth on the characters so many have grown to love and admire. A story that lets the reader experience the characters beyond what you saw on screen.

I love that I'm able to pick up a comic book that portrays Tommy Oliver and the Rangers. This new story, brought to life in comic books, is a fundamental part of the legacy of Power Rangers and brings a modernized, multifaceted aspect to the series. Fans of the original show, both new and old are now able to see a different side of their role models. BOOM! Studios' new story for Tommy Oliver highlights the struggle of good vs. evil, which is Tommy's biggest challenge and essential for readers to experience and learn from,

After twenty-five years, I try to continue to be a role model, whether it is fighting in the MMA cage, martial arts, or in my new acting roles. I am blessed to be a hero on screen, but portraying Tommy Oliver motivates me to be a hero in real life as well.

I'm blessed to have been able to take my passion and bring it to life and to have so many people experience it along with me. People with great passion can make the impossible happen just as the Power Rangers have been doing for all these years. Just like Tommy said, "It's not just the costume and powers that give you strength. It's who and what you are inside that really empowers you." It's Morphin Time!

The two of us running this blog, as well as all of Bulbagarden's staff members and users, would like to offer our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Rachael Lillis, who passed away on August 10, 2024, at the age of 55.

It's truly difficult to properly convey the impact Rachael had on our lives, as she was the original voice actress of Misty and Jessie for eight seasons of the Pokémon anime, from 1998 to 2006. Her impact was not just felt in Pokémon, but also in titles such as Revolutionary Girl Utena and Hunter x Hunter, and it's safe to say that she was a beloved member of our fandom that will be sorely missed.

Our thoughts are with Rachael's family and loved ones as we take a moment to remember and commemorate her life and work, which will certainly never be forgotten.

Thank you, Rachael, and rest in peace.
