 In the Toku recap today we have the debut of Kamen Rider Jin, aka Kamen Rider Pinky, NARF! Aside form that we have Nada revealed to be the bearer of the Gaizorg armor, so now he's actually relevant tot he show, finally! Also there was a filler episode for Beast Morphers moving on. Now we're at the end of Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise. All I'll say is Nadai is a badass and at least it wasn't a Refrigerator

 Toku was still good across the board; moving one we're approaching the Endgame of Lost Paradise so now it's time for the Superbosses. First we face Toki at his most powerful, we may need to take every advantage I can get but I'm still a gentleman and let him have his coughing fit. Next we tackle the reward for tackling all of the bounties, the eponymous Komaki style master from Kamurocho; Komaki. Then for shits and giggles we raid the teleporting base of the Army of Ruin to get Nadai off his ass and help save the world from Sphere City's missiles. But it looks like he has his own idea about saving the world, killing Yuria before she pops out of the oven.

 Oh dear, not only did I slip back into my bad old streaming habits but my lateness is starting to creep up on me. But then again considering I was going up against Jagi and Raoh a little bit of over preparedness is warranted. Though with the Toku V-logs they're still getting to the desired length, short and sweet. Though that can be attributed to me not going over more than "this is good" and plot details to joke about. Though still better then a near half hour rant with Zi-o.

Tokusatsu Review: Lupinranger Vs Patranger Vs Kyuuranger Part 1: Vs Blue Vs West Vs Jason Vs Food Vs Spy Vs The Terminator Vs.....

 Fall is here and that can only mean one thing, the Sentai vs movie is out on DVD in Japan and that means those who don’t live there can finally sink our critical fangs into the latest last hurrah for last years Sentai. But sadly this is one crossover I’ve been dreading, where our favorite game of cops and robbers have to endure Dumbluck and his band of idiots. The biggest issue I have going into this is the balancing of the character dynamics, Kyuuranger is infamous for being the largest Sentai team to date with 12 team members, most of whom struggled for screen time when most of the time all the attention was focused on Dumbluck and his dumbass Red Ranger shenanigans. It honestly got so bad I dropped the series after the 5th episode because I was so burnt out on Sentai after Wrong and Leftovers dragged down Toqger and Ninninger, but with Yamato and Zyuogher I honesty thought Toei finally decided to put the Dumbass Red to bed for a little while. And little while was right, once Zyuogher ended, Kyuuranger showed up, I invented the nickname for Lucky and I dropped it like a sack of potatoes.

 So, while I do have some inkling as to the events of the series thanks to Toku Riffs, if I miss any major references to Kyuranger it's only because I never completed watching that series. We can at least assume that their big bad, Don Armage was defeated if the events of Kyuranger Vs Space Squad was anything to go by. So time to rip off this bandaid and toss it in the garbage. We open on the Lupinrangers coming back from grocery shopping when they get held hostage by a Gold skinned man with a pink boa, leopard print pants and a fake afro, oh bartender?


 Keep em coming, I'm gonna need them I can just tell. Just as Kairi and the other are about to transform Keichiro and the Patrangers show up to take on Goldmember. But just before they can make their move, he shows up.
Wow, one second in and I'm already reminded of why I dropped your show like a bad habit.
 Now before you can even say it, yes, yes it does get more insane as what appears to be the love child of Jealoushito and Doc Brown shows up with a van to pick up his partner Goldmember and their new hostages; the Lupinrangers. Now the Patrangers could have easily stopped them, if it wasn't for Dumbluck stopping Keichiro with a bearhug for literally no reason. So Keichiro does what any competent officer would do in this situation and arrest the idiot for obstruction of justice, assisted in three counts of kidnapping, not to mention the property damage that his landing caused. Just thank whoever that Japan still practices the death penalty! But no, sadly they remember that due process is a thing and interrogate him at the station after the title card.

 Turns out that Dumbluck is stomping around in the main universe again because Don Armage's body-double; Don Arkage survived the dissolving of Jark Matter and is planing on picking up where the main man left off. Thankfully Keichiro's pigheadedness comes in handy this time and doesn't listen to the moron and rightfully points out that because of Dumbluck Kairi and the others got kidnapped. Noel then tells the Patrangers that Jurer's owner (aka Kogare) reported that the kidnappers made contact with him.

 Speaking of, Goldmember is panicking over what he and his manager did. Though Kairi and the others couldn't care less since they thought they were Ganglars, but due to the lack of safes on them they decide to blow this taco joint. They two explain their deal, they were actually a performer and manger from the Kyuuranger universe until one day, they just crossed through a Tear I guess and landed in the main Sentai Universe and have been trying to get home ever since. But the thieves give the wonder dummies an idea. They call the cafe and make a list of demands, they'll hand over Kairi and the others in exchange for 150,000 yen, which if I did my math right comes out to 1,343 US dollars.


 This is why search engines are your friend! While Kairi and the other chew them out they get a surprise visit from Bootleg Spock and Josuk3PO who fill them in on why they're here. Apparently Goldmember's Guitar holds Jark Matters's secret treasure in it and that's why Don Arkage's here looking for it. But since the Guitar is in Global Police custody the five thieves decide to do a job together to get it back. Kairi takes over for the next call and demands that the Patrangers hand over their Lupin Collection pieces, 100 Million Yen in cash and the Guitar in exchange for the "hostages".

 Keichiro reluctantly agrees and Noel delivers the items to the exchange point. The plan goes well at first, until a Pig Ganglar working for Don Arkage shows up and grabs the Guitar. In the confusion Bootleg and Josuk3PO get away with the cash while Kairi, Tooma and Umika decide to give the Patranger's collection pieces a whirl and Morph into the Patrangers. Though it's not a good fit, while the Lupinranger powers work with their fighting style focused on mobility the Patranger's powers focus more on straight up offense and defense due to the bulkier armor. That and the Pig Ganglar having three Collection pieces doesn't help matters.

 Piggy gets away with the Guitar while the Thieves are forced to power down when Keichiro and the rest of the cops show up, them not noting how the three supposed civilians knew how to use the VS Changers as well as they did, nice one Numpties! While Dumbluck chills in his cell we see that Yera Allon, Luigi Mario and Sasuke Clone #3472 are also on the trail for the Guitar, getting back on track after seeing Goldmember on the news. Back at Global Police HQ the cops are contemplating the case so far until Tsurugi shows up to post Dumbluck's bail. While letting Dumbluck go Keichiro points out that Dumbluck could have busted out of his cell at any time, so why not do that then? Dumbluck surprises me by rightfully saying that him busting out wouldn't have proven his innocence.

 So the two Space Reds fill the Patrangers on the full situation. They knew that Don Arkage was in the main universe looking for something, so they sent three vanguards out to look for him but the groups got separated traveling the Tear. So now they have to go looking for them. Which may be sooner than they think since Yera, Luigi and Sauske Clone track down the Pig Ganglar with the Guitar, just as Don Arkage shows up to pick it up. And the reason why Red Skull wants this Guitar so badly is apparently it contains something called Hyper Planesium which can make him even stronger than Don Armage. Knowing they can't let him get away with something as dangerous as that the trio confront Arkage and the Ganglar just as the Lupinrangers and Bootleg and Josuk3PO do.

 The 8 Morph and deal with the Ganglar and Podamen while Don Arkage goes up to the roof to power himself up with the Planesium. The Lupinrangers manage to steal the Ganglar's collection pieces giving them the clear to reduce him to Scrapple with a combined attack from the five Kyuurangers. That just leaves the fake Don and his nasty upgrade to deal with. So we'll leave it here for now as next time we'll get the big team up mash up that, a few of you were stoked for.

 Well there have certainly been some major revelations today. Not only is Xsana's father still alive but is watching over the city, but that's about all he can do otherwise he might make things worse. Oh and Thouzer (Souther whatever) has finally shown up but Ken smacks the so called Emperor out of town. Over in Toku town we have Zero One getting his feet wet in Humagear sales, Kou starting to show that he's not another Dumbass Red and Beast Morphers getting its next arc off the ground. Also sorry I missed publishing this last week.

 Now that Beast Morphers is back on the air we have more to talk about. Though I will try to keep it to a minimum. It looks like Aruto has to clean out the skeletons in his Pop-Pop's closet before he can make any major change ton his new company. Kleon accidentally made a creepy pasta while thinking that Wiseru is kind of an asshole. Also Lost Paradise is mostly filler too as we get our buggy ready for our field trip to the Cursed Village.

 Now that Zi-o is finally over we can hopefully move on to good Tokusatsu to cover with the first Kamen Rider Series of the Reiwa era, Zero One. Basically it's Detroit Become Human mixed with Mega Man X and the 1936 original version of Mr Deeds, only David Cage isn't around to ruin everything by being David Cage. Ryusoulger this week was just another filler episode brought about by Canelo's internal filter working overtime. Lastly there's Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise where we see Kenshiro being his tour as the manager of a nightclub. Juxtaposed where we learn that Xsana killed her father in cold blood after she saw him kill her mother right in front of her for seemingly no reason, and we thought Ryusoulger was bipolar at the start eh?

 It's over, Zi-o is finally over and while its still nowhere near as bad and disrespectful as Kamen Rider Decade and Power Rangers Megaforce were, it's still pretty bad. Now with Zero One coming next week and Beast Morphers coming back we should have much more to talk about. We can have it over drinks at Kenshiro's bar, where he makes can shake a martini as well as he can shake a punk's brains. While he regales us with the story of how he met his old buddy Rei after being mistaken for Jagi. Forget Cheers; at the Rusty Nail good times are sure to follow.

 Once again I have business come up so no article this week sadly. But at least Zi-O is almost over, if only our protagonist wasn't a complete selfish asshat with the brains of a sock drawer. Oh and trust me this show has far more issues then that, not the least of which that without said selfish stupidity then the plot would have been over and done by episode 1, just meh the belt and no Oma Zi-O, no time jackers, no Another Riders nothing. But at least Ryusoulger is starting to turn itself around with a plot that you know is going to have some heart tearing moments. Oh, and starting this time, I'll honestly try to end my steams earlier, and trust me enough happens in FOTNSLP to keep you occupied for quite some time.

 Big week as we start our stream of Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise. I'm a very casual fan of the series having only seen the first arc of the Anime up to where Ken kills Shin so everything else is a mystery to me aside from Youtube clips and Bennet the Sage's Episode of Anime Abandon talking about the movie. Other then that I know that this was made by the guys behind the Yakuza games, so if I like this; this may be what inspires me to get into that franchise. Other then that Zi-O is thankfully almost over and apparently Ryusoulger is bombing so badly that it got not only a writing staff change but also a producer staff change since episode 19. Damn, I honestly never heard a show do that badly before, just damn!

 Hey, yeah sorry there's no V-Log of Zi-o and Lupinranger Vs Patranger for this week. Yeah due to circumstances beyond my control I haven't been able to record today. But I will record a V-log later this week and make it a double feature for next Saturday's post. Besides how could I talk about a somewhat decent Super Sentai series and a Kamen Rider series written by a complete troll when I have seen the face of GOD!? Yes I played the demo of Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise and let me tell you, get it now or Kenshiro will blow you to pieces! Seriously folks, I haven't had this much fun with a demo of a game since Doom 2016, only this time I will put this sucker on my Christmas list!
