Only "new one" (is CB considered new?) I like is Evangelion and FML I'm leaving Great Nihon just a couple of days before the goddamn premiere of You can (not) redo.

First episode of Kyouryuu Sentai ZyuRanger. Was curious because I knew this was the show that was adapted in Mighty Morphing Power Rangers.

I finished the first three episodes of ZyuRanger and I LOVE this show. It is soooooo much better then MMPR. Sadly this person on Youtube only has the first 5 of 50 episodes...so I'm already trying to find someplace I get the others, because I already want more of this.

I never found more than a few fansubs of it.  If you find more let me know.

Ugh...don't tell me that. I am really hooked on this show now. I don't think I've had this much fun watching something in a long time.

TV-Nihon is subbing it, but their release schedule is pretty sporadic.

"One day, her son Kai was inadvertently killed by a Tyrannosaurus."

This alone makes me want to watch the Sentai series instead of MMPR.
Get a little closer let it fold
Cut open my sternum and pull

Yeah I saw that at the start of the video once I actually started looking. Man, they have to finish this...and quick. It's soooo awesome.

Now I want to say I don't hate anime. I do like it. It is just that it is really hit or miss and most of it is miss these days. Even ones I really like like Fullmetal, or Cowboy BeBop still don't hold me over long periods of time. Anime just isn't something I go looking for new ones to try. If someone says "Oh this is pretty good. You might like it." I might give it a try if I can find easy. It just not something I go out of my way to find anymore.


I've only seen a little of Kamen Rider stuff and it was way back in the 90s, so I don't know much about that series. Didn't much care for what I saw though.

I try to keep tabs on new anime, if it's visually striking, or the premise sounds somehow unique or interesting, I'll give it a shot. More often than not I won't go beyond the first episode.

None of it clicks with me anymore, and I'm fine with that.

Ha, ha, I totally agree with you guys.  Are we just old?  Or has it been mostly shit the entire time?  I look at so much anime--not watch, just look, like, at the packaging or a few scenes or screen grabs--and I can smell turds through my screen.  Just seeing a picture of some saucer-eyed bimbette with impossible-colored hair posing in a fuku makes me want to punch a baby in the face.

It must be old age because I ate this stuff up when I was like a teenager and in my early 20s, but man...I just can't get into it anymore.

Anyway I was able to find up to Episode 18 of ZyuRanger...but I've only seen up to 6 so far. I like that they explain things here that MMPR never did. Like why the mecha are Dinos. Where the rangers got their weapons, and why they shove crystals into their mecha to form the big robot. All of this is explained in ZuyRanger...and it just sorta is in MMPR.

A in has always had tons of shit. We just didn't know it because we only got the best stuff sent over here. That's why the DVD market up and died. They can blame piracy for this, but the preponderance of crap and otaku-centric materialkilled any mass-market appeal it could have ever had.
Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

I just saw the last ep of Red Dwarf series X
I really hope they do another series. The whole season was pretty good, but this last ep was just brilliant.
A little worried that this ep was called the Beginning, considering the very first ep of season 1 was called the End. And Rimmers last line before the credits was the same as Listers in the very first ep.

Still the cast obviously enjoys what they're doing and I've heard they done quite well in the ratings, so I'm hoping for a few seasons more

Well I finished up to episode 20 of ZyuRanger. Just have to wait for more to come out. By far my favorite episode so far is 17, where the Green Ranger first shows up. It has an attempted forklift kill. (Much like in Fugitive Alien) Two old guys on a motorcycle with machine guns shooting at a kid, and best of all the Green Ranger. Whose first words to the other ZyuRangers were to "Go to hell" and he then proceeded to beat the shit out of them. It was awesome.

You should check out MagiRanger. It aired during the height of Pottermania.

Probably. I just remember in the Japanese version the team members were all brothers and sisters, and when they were at home they would wear Hogwarts-esque robes.

It was fucking ridiculous.

Yep it was.

Mahou Sentai Magiranger= Power Rangers Mystic Force.


Didn't really ever catch that one so no idea what that was like. I really wanna see TimeRanger because that was the one that became Power Ranger Time Force, and I liked that one a lot. I heard that they stuck to the Sentai pretty close on that one.

Uh...I meant Via..."via torrent", not "viva". I was working on a comic last night while posting here that had a reference to the song "Viva Las Vegas" in it (don't ask) and that was fresh on my mind.

Oh shit!  I didn't realize TV-Nihon finally got to more episodes.  I'll have to chell these out.  Hopefully I don't need to use fucking IRC to get them.

Ninja Sentai Kakuranger episode 1 and 2.

Don't know how I feel about this one. Sometimes I think it is great, sometimes no. In the end it doesn't matter since I've only been able to find 1 and 2 subbed so far.

I watched some Extreme Couponing thing from TLC that's on Netflix's service.  A lot of their savings relies on double and triple couponing.  We don't have that shit here.  Not anymore.  San Antonio would be extreme couponer hell.  Ho ho.  Also, they buy some rancid shit.  Closets and shelves full of chips and soda.  Ew.  This one lady got a shitload of diapers for free.  All she needs is a baby to use them on.  lol.

Gosei Sentai Dairanger episode 2


Took me awhile to get back to this one since the sub I wanted was in an 18 episode block and that took awhile to download when you only get like 1-2 hours of high speed access a week. I'm out of town this weekend and the hotel had high speed so I was able to finish it off and am watching it now.

Ok I finished up to episode 18 of Gosei Sentai Dairanger, and I'm downloading the next batch. This show was starting to grow on me till they made a 10 year old kid the the White Ranger. Do what? And he like becomes adult when he changes (called Aura Change in this show). I remember back in the day when they did this is Power Rangers Turbo and thought it was dumb then, but then to find out that the Japanese did it with this show FIRST...Groan.

Anyway, while I'm waiting for more DaiRanger to download I've also started up on Denji Sentai MegaRanger. This one is fun...but eh....really the only one of these that has got close to the fun of ZyuRanger is KakuRanger, which I can still only find two episodes of.

Anyway this Super Sentai stuff has become a new crack for me. Sad what being a little curious can do to you.

If you remember the old MMPR show whenever Tommy transformed into the White Ranger he acted really weird.  That's because that footage was from that show and he was a kid who was excited to be an adult.  There are weird things like him jumping around and flipping the Tigerzord that only make sense in retrospect when you know this.
