Threw on Ninnin in the hopes that a rewatch would fade into the background while i'm drawing but it was only effective until approx episode 9 when Kinji moseyed on up.

Toku Pride Month Challenge│Ships

Yamato Kazakiri & Misao Mondo

[the-writer-mao]

Jerami, your Misao is showing.

[faketokufan]

Ok. This may be a hot take but...he should just be Misao here. Not similar to. Just is. Misao has a track record of just like, showing up places with no introduction or justification. Let this be a continuation of that please!

oh yeah naoki kunishima (who played misao in zyuohger) will also be in juuga vs. olteca!

I will be appearing in Kamen Rider, a long-cherished dream! It's been a dream since I was a high school student. This time, the role is reminiscent of Mondo Misao's outfits and actions, so please pay attention to that as well! Many of the staff from Zyuohger were there, and I was happy to be able to work with Masashi Takada again. But if I wanted to, I still wanted to transform... I haven't given up yet! I will transform someday! I'll do my best as an actor until the day I can say I'm transformed! LOL

Zyuoh The World - Matsubara Tsuyoshi Super Sentai Spirits 2023

[biomic]

Top 5 sentai/rider combos that you've watched live

god now THIS is a question.

5. toqger/drive - my first two live shows... toqger obviously is incredibly special to me being the show that got me into the wider world of toku in the first place, but even with my well-documented dislike of drive i DO have fond memories of following its initial press cycle and i really did enjoy that first chunk. simpler, simpler times......

4. ninninger/ghost - fandom's most beloathed super hero time lineup but I Get It. tbh i didn't actually come around to liking ninninger until some time after it ended, but even when i was lukewarm on it i remember gekiatsu dai-oh's debut blowing me away the same week that ghost premiered, and man that was a FANTASTIC weekend to be a toku fan. i so badly wish this had been the crossover instead of zyuoh so kasumi could meet a ghost like she'd always wanted </3

3. ryusoulger/zero-one - wyzul's final showdown alongside the humagear real estate battle? this is the essence of tokusatsu, to me

2. revice/donbrothers - only reason this isn't number 1 is because i didn't get to finish donbros as it aired and revice actually wanted me dead by the time it reached its back half. but donbrothers was always there to heal me <3 this is like the faiz/abare lineup of its day, not in quality but in making the audience go insane every week

1. lupinranger vs patranger/build - Gao God shined His light upon me and blessed me with the most peak super hero time there's ever been. they should've called this shit super yaoi time oh my god. was out of my mind every single week. build would leave me sweating and hyperventilating and then there was lupat to do some dumb bullshit like the aerobics episode. beautiful stuff.

"wow no saber?" i don't associate saber with either kiramager or zenkaiger it just happened in its own bubble universe to me. if saber had aired next to donbrothers i would not be here blogging today bc it would've actually killed me.

I think it would be great if the Noto trio just showed up at random in crossovers from now on. Like Misao Zyuoh The World did that time.

[tsuki-sennin]

My, this is quite the turn of events.

What the hell happened in the past two weeks while we were gone, Donbrothers? We've got a funny red man, a blue monkey and a yellow oni who're a pair of losers, a pink bird wife guy turned epic divorce man, a jailhouse black dog, and a bunch of autistic kids hanging out in the void by themselves! ...also a Tiger/Dragon system apparently just off to the side, which is quite unusual for a Sixth Ranger.

Also, uh... yesterday morning, Kohei Murakami, who played Kusaka in Faiz and Bud in Zyuohger, after asking if his followers saw episode 36 of Donbrothers, shared a picture of Inoue captioned "Toshiki Kabedon", which is uh... exactly what you might imagine it'd be. I know I don't usually show pictures, but I find this deeply compelling. Look at his goddamn face. Look at it. That is a man who knows.

Anyways, Spoilers I guess beneath the cut~!

-Aw how cute, they're napping together :)

-F

-FIVE HUNDRED BILLION YEN??!

-Ah, yep, Kijino's in a real bad state.

-Damn. Railing against your boss like that? In a Japanese corporate setting?

-Haruka with the phonecall!

-...suddenly I'm very thankful that Crane Lady didn't see that he was getting phone calls from a teenage girl.

-Oh shit, a party?

-Of fuckin' course it's a party, have I seen this consistently festival-themed show before?

-Ah fuck, the preview has an inferno. This ain't good.

-Oh shit, GolDon Zyuoh Eagle. Hell yeah, really lean into that bird.

-Friendship :)

-Parfait time!

Haruka: Tell Mister Kijino how much he means to you, Tarou :) Tarou: Kijino, you are worth as much to me as- Shinichi: Y'know on second thought let's not do that!

-He is... The wife guy.

-Oh goddammit-

-Goddamn, he couldn't even get a man sent to jail hjkl

-Inuzuka Tsubasa...!

-Chase him!

-Damn, these Juto are violent violent!

-Me when no food.

-Ah, I see he's still a Master Shef.

-EAT

-EAT PUNY BIRD MAN

-Ohhhhh, sirens. ...did that guy say "Kyuukyuu" earlier? ...GoGoFive man?

-"Damn dude, I didn't know going sicko mode made you a shit cook. 0/10, would not eat again."

-"EAT MY GODDAMN FOOD YOU PIGS"

-Oh shit, Sononi-san!

-Crane Lady!

-Oh goddammit Haruka, do you have an interest in her too? ...I mean fair, but c'mon.

-Canned movie! ...oh shit, I still haven't seen that. Battle Familia either. Damn.

-Shake's pier.

-Prince, magic, true love, back normal!

-Hell yeah.

-Ohhhh, she wants to be a beast.

-Natsumi-chan~!

-Natsumi-san!

-"Wanna play fancy actress for a bit? :3"

-Ah, so this IS Natsumi mode!

-A rich fan!

-Oh shit, Jirou's back! I see Rumi-chan's still here too.

-Stew!

-Ah, the boys are fightin'.

-"Dude what, you suddenly grew a tiger kimono."

-He suddenly became a giga chad right before your eyes.

-Remember the sunset.

-Merbromin...

-"Yeeeeeah, I guess that makes sense!"

-Guess Haruka is a dedicated Natsumi stan now.

-Here they are! The condor lady and the shadow man!

-Ohhhhh, this is a bit intense.

-God dang it, Haruka!

Sononi: Geez, what's up with there? Sonoza: She's a

-Poor Emergency Guy.

-Momoi Tarou.

-Miho is Natsumi's dream?

-Get the real Tsubasa back, get rid of this sussy baka imposter.

-Ohhhhhh, I love Crane Lady's monster form.

-Oi, Tarou, don't say "Two on one works for me!", people might get the wrong idea.

-"Dammit, I must be slipping if I got saved by Sonoza!"

-Where the boyfriend at?

-Even wrote a notecard for you, huh?

-OH THERE HE IS HJKLH

-"Fuck it, who cares! Kage Time!"

-Kyuukyuu-Ki!

-Oh god, this is gonna be how Tsubasa has his internal reveal

-OH NO ROLLCALL TIME JHGLKGKV

-Born from a peach! Don Momotaro! Yooooo! Nippon Ichi!

-Bidding farewell to the transient world... SaruBrother! Yo! Muki muki!

-YOU FUCKED IT UP

-YOU FUCKED IT UP YOU MANIAC

-Jirou, let's go!

-"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA GET THEM! SHOOT THEM! SHOOT 'EM GOOD, DOGGIE!"

-God, this is such chaos, and I woudln't have it any other way.

-Save the Earth! Save a Life!

-Oh yeah, Jirou wasn't there.

-Goooold Avatar Change! Honnou Kakusei! Monarch of the Open Skies! Zyuoh Eagle!

-...that seemed a little anticlimactic. I mean, he probably could've cleared the fire on his own, but I guess a bit of Zyuoh love isn't remiss!

-There it is! The big fuck-off fully combined robot of this season!

-"Shut up arm, I own you!"

-Donbros Fantasia Supreme!

-A supreme win for the ages!

-Hey there emergency guy!

-Well done, report back to HQ.

-Goooooo Tsubasa!

-Hell yeah, you got him!

-Good job, Tsubasa!

-Only one. Ore koso.

-Did the creepy origami cats free him? Or did he rip out of there on his own?

-SONOSHI WHAT

-That form... IS THAT A HENSHIN NINJA ARASHI REFERENCE

-Well, I guess... they're a bit more even now. This man came waltzing in, so I guess he's here now. See you on Monday, I guess.

[t-u-i-t-c]

A CHARACTER THAT I'M REMINDED OF BY:

😭🐊🦏🐺 → MISAO (ZYUOHGER)

[asknarashikari]

Michinaga: You!

Tusk: Me? Can I help you with something?

Michinaga: You will pay for what you did! Henshin *transforms into a Bull Rider*

Tusk: Look I don’t even know who you are! Why’re you attacking me!

Tusk: Really? After what happened with the Ninningers – crap!

Tusk: Honou Kakusei! *transforms into Zyuoh Elephant*

Michinaga: Its useless, no attack can affect me.

Michianga: You will pay for what you did!

Tusk: Like I told you, I don’t know who you are!

Tusk: I don’t even know what I supposedly did.

Michinaga: I see how it is. Figures.

Yamato: Tusk, do not hold back! Attack him with everything you got use awakening!

Tusk Wha-

Yamato: You can’t second guess it, treat him like he’s Genis!

Tusk: Are you sure?

Yamato: Very sure.

*attacks connect to Michinaga*

Michinaga: Wha-

Yamato: Don’t underestimate the Zyuohgers.

Yamato:  Yasei Dai Kaihō

Tusk: Oi, Yamato, is that a bit excessive.

Yamato: He can handle a little pain.

Yamato: Especially if he’s attacking children.

Tusk: Attacking chi-

Michinaga: All Riders are scum of the Earth, greedy to the core.

Yamato: He thinks all transforming people are Kamen Riders, so far he’s attacked, Juuru, Kotaro, and Hikari on the sentai side.

Tusk: What about the Rider side?

Yamato: He’s attacked Yuzuru-kun, and Anna.

Tusk: That girl that became Den-o for a bit?

Tusk: How’d he know about her?

Yamato: Keiwa-kun thinks its probably his supporter who revels in the misery of people.

Tusk: Just like Genis.

----

Emu: You could have dealt more damage.

Yamato: He was already unconscious, so I stopped.

Tusk: Remind me not to get on your bad side.

Yamato: Oh this was merciful.

Yamato: Takaharu was livid upon learning that someone was attacking baby sentai and riders.

Yamato: I don’t want to know what Takaharu can be capable of if he thinks his family is in danger.

Emu: Ditto for Shinnosuke.

Yamato: Especially since I’ve seen Takaharu without holding back and all stoic when Gaisoulg was possessed his body.

Yamato: I loathe to think if Lucky gets into that problem.

Emu: Lucky is easily one of the most powerful heroes around.

Emu: Don’t worry about him, we’ll give him to that grand prix and hopefully they’ll have the means to contain him for a while.

Tusk: Can something be done for him?

Yamato: What he needs is to grieve.

Yamato: Even without knowing the full context, the ferocity and his words at you, Tusk, makes him think that you’re the Rider that killed his best friend.

Tusk: But he doesn’t have a right to go around accusing people of that.

Yamato: You’re right, but like I said he’s trying to grieve.

Emu: That grand prix I mentioned erases his memory of the death of his friend so every time he remembers, he gets angrier and angrier.

Tusk: Doesn’t give him the right, still

Yamato: And you’re right.

Honestly, at this point I don't think anything Azuma does still has anything to do with losing Tooru.

For one thing, he seems to have accepted Tooru's death, in his own way. He says as much after he took down the Jyamato masquerading as Tooru. Further evidence is the fact that earlier in the show, Azuma has frequent flashbacks to him or has imaginary conversations with his "ghost" (or maybe his conscience taking the form of Tooru), but now it's gone.

He has grieved, and is moving on- but whether he grieved "properly" or not is debatable, and how he's moving on is questionable at best.

Secondly, he's had that chip on his shoulder even before Tooru died, if his troubled past is anything to go by. Even as a kid he seemed to have a lot of anger and bitterness inside him. And if anything, it seemed like Tooru was the only thing that held him from going off the deep end (which is why I think that the abovementioned "ghost" he converses with was really his conscience taking Tooru's form).

Tooru's death was just what sent him spiralling, the spark that finally lit up all the suppressed rage and resentment he had. And the DGP gave him the power to unleash it onto the world by making him a Kamen Rider.

So... uh, yeah, I don't think this advice is gonna "help" him at all.

[cachu302]

The ToQger crossover was leagues better than the Go-Onger crossover. Genba’s obsession to defeat Disrace paralleled Akira’s desire to find his place to die so damn well! And getting Right actually fighting alongside the Boonboomgers was the best, especially the line-changing into Mio and Hikari’s colors! Why we couldn’t have that with Sosuke will be something I will nitpick forever.

Speaking of Akira, Boonboomger is doing a very poor job of convincing me Sakito and Byun D are trying to be a separate group from the core Boonboomger team. It’s an issue that I feel Sentai does seldomly very well in recent years, in establishing the extra heroes as separate entities from the core team. Either they immediately become a member of the team (Shinken Gold, Gokai Silver, Zyuoh the World), or they spend two or three episodes beefing with the core team before joining for real, then a later episode (around the 38 to 42 mark) actually has them join for real for real. In the case of Akira, he established himself as a separate party from the ToQgers and maintained that distance from them very easily, even coming into conflict with them due to a promise he made with Schwartz. And when he returned, it really felt like he joined for real.

Comparing that to Sakito, who unfortunately falls into the group of sixths who kinda… exist, a la Kiramai Silver, LuPat X, Don Dragoku/Torabolt. They all have really interesting backstories that are either not explored much, or they don’t matter in the long run. We haven’t really had many scenes where Sakito gets to be a cleaner, and he’s just there as the Boonboomger’s sixth. He’s beefing with Genba because… they’re both technically extraterrestrials(?).

Some examples of this kind of dynamic that Sentai has done well are with Shurikenger, Twokaiser, and Starninger. Zox and his family never identified themselves as Zenkaigers, despite being on friendly terms with them, and Kinji was introduced explicitly as a separate party from the Igasaki clan before being induced as an apprentice. Shurikenger especially worked well, due to his gimmick of borrowing faces and appearances. He was more of a shadow mentor to both the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers, and didn’t consider himself a member of the team until Lady Gozen was killed.

Sakito feels like missed potential, similar to Noel from LuPat. The show couldn’t really keep X from staying neutral, and ended up making him a permanent member of the thieves despite his main selling point. Hell, he even took the Siren Striker away from the Patrangers.

If you’re enjoying Boonboomger, all the power to you.

thoughts on Yamato's life post-Zyuoh finale?

Hmmm well I have a couple

First of all, employment. he was a tour guide before right? does he still have that job. bc he sure as fuck wasn't clocking in after getting roped into monster fighting after episode 1. maybe its a Kakeru Gaoranger situation where you can simply disappear for a month or longer and miraculously won't get fired when you turn back up again. or maybe Yamato just quit his job. think that's the more likely option actually. gonna be weird finding another job in the New World tho. the economy my god

Second of all, his dad. the ending of zyuoh suggests he'll try to be less cold and more present in Yamato's life. I'm sure Yamato would treat all that past neglect as water under the bridge but it would still hang heavy over his head (dude's own kid ran away to live in his weirdo brother-in-laws treehouse and was like "eh sure whatever its only my son"). ultimately, I think the bridge is too burned and although he'd give it many tries, Yamato would realize he doesn't need his dad back in his life all that much. two reasons, 1. he barely knew his dad to begin with so its not like he's rekindling something lost and 2. he has a much bigger support system than he did pre-show, made of people who actually care abt him and were there for him when times were bad. he'd only try to reconnect with his pops so many times bc of everyone's (Amu mainly) insistence that's its def a good idea. they're still on good speaking terms of course, but no more than that

TL;DR the economy is in shambles and someone desperately needs to invent therapy so Yamato can go to it
