    Great review, man! I'm from Brazil, and indeed, Jaspion was (and still is) huge here. I guess the explanation is that there was a period when no major tokusatsus were being aired here, and when this hit, there was a whole new generation to which the concept was totally new, myself included. And it helps that the series has all those things you mentioned: a charismatic hero, comedy (not always intentional), great fights etc...
    Anyway, thanks for taking the time, you just got another subscriber.

      That's what I've heard, though to be fair, Juspion is still a great show regardless of the reasonings. Of the four Metal Heroes series I have watched so far, Juspiion might be my favorite.
      Glad you enjoyed my review and hopefully you enjoy the others too.

    Hi there. Juspion fan from Brazil. A couple of points from your review: 1) The "black armor" in the ending is actually not a black prototype. It's a very shiny silver chromed armour used for shooting commercials and magazines. It was used once in the series (Juspion and MadGalant last fight inside the cave) it just looks black in the dark. 2) The episode about the kids with the baby monsters... That's one of my favorite episodes! You have to remember this is a kids show, they don't try to make everything make sense. The TV station kept telling the producers to include children in the show to make it more kids friendly. So they wrote episodes like that to accommodate this requirement. 3) The reason it did just OK in Japan is because the japanese audience already had three other hero shows in the same format (Gavan, Sharivan, Shaider) so to them Juspion was just more of the same. There were already tired of this format on TV. In Brazil, Juspion was the first metal hero ever, so people when nuts for it. Even today Juspion airs every sunday in Brazil. 4) Juspion did get remasted by Toei and it was launched in a series of 5 blurays in Japan. The makers of the US DVD did not want to buy the remastered version. The quality of the japanese bluray is way better. HINT: If you liked the samurai episode you MUST watch Sekai Ninja Sen Jiraiya. Jiraiya is the second most famous metal hero in Brazil. I actually like this series more than Jaspion. Thanks for Juspion review tho. It was pretty complete. 👍

      Welcome.
      1. Thanks for the info.
      2. It's not that it was written for kids that was my problem, it's how Gavan blantantly tries to attack what seemed to be an official government agency vehicle to get the monster back to the kids.
      4. Are you sure about the Blu-Ray release in Japan? I can't find anything listed on CDJapan or Amazon Japan for it. Also, Toei has been doing their BD in sets of 3. I know it had 5 DVD volumes.
      I do plan to get to Jiraiya at some point, just not sure when. Glad you enjoyed the review. :-)

    Nice review. About Boomerang, it is said that the actor (Hiroshi Watari) had an accident during the shootings, so he wasn't able to go back. He also portrayed Sharivan (2nd space sheriff) and Spielban (Juspion's following series).

  • @fernandomaron87
    @fernandomaron87 4 роки тому +9

    If Hikaru Kurosaki (Jaspion) comes to Brazil one day, he will be mindblown by how much he is loved here, he's biggest than The Avengers (at least with over 30 people), but many of his fans are also kids as well, those who were thaught to love the show by their parents.
    The actors of Jiraya, Jiban, Sharivan, Akira Kushida and others have came to Brazil and felt the craziness of brazillian fans over them, and they've came back many times, but Jaspion was the first Tokusatsu to air in brazillian tv, so many people would go from all parts of Brazil to meet this legendary actor.

      @@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork Similar to Ultraman Orb, I had no idea what to except watching Juspion, as it’s my first Metal Heroes show. I have to say I was very impressed with it. One thing I will say as that as I’m more use to watch Shout! Factory and Mill Creek, so seeing yellow subs (despite Zyuranger and Dairanger having it). However, I like how they used three different colors for the subs. I liked the first three episodes, and I kinda wish that’s what the whole show was, as they gave off a very Star Warsy feel going from planet to planet. Juspion very much felt like a Kamen Rider with a Sentai esc Mecha. I enjoyed both the Mecha and hand-to-hand fights as well. My major problem with this shows is that regardless of the character, I wish there was more backstory for the characters. Do wish some of the side characters like Suchi & Lotto and Boomerang had more to do. Felt like they were introduced, the writers didn’t know what to do with them so they forgot about them. Only for them to be reintroduced just to be written off. As the only characters who felt like they had any importance was the Nambara family. Not to mention Tiger Joe, which don’t know why they would introduce the character’s main friend with 5 episodes left of the show. I will say that you were right about Episode 19. Dolphins with Missiles are PEAK and definitely would beat Sharks with Lasers. I will say that you were right about Episode 19.

    Silver Quill visited Sea World Japan...and was never heard from again. He is fondly remembered now through legend, and song. His friends telling his story, a hippogriff who walked among the ponies (and bronies). A nerd among men, and a man among nerds...and tall (like his tale). It was said that he drank from a goblet of kings (or maybe it was fire), discovered a book of secrets, a mummy, an oddly shaped crystal skull (I think it might be alien, or something you'd find in a giftshop) and some glowing rocks while in India. He fought pirates for Aztec gold, and the Fountain of Youth (like Sooooo many others); rescued a fair maiden from a mighty beast while on an uncharted island (I wonder what happened there, well probably wasn't important). While in the desert he tried to blow up a box with a bazooka, and even fought an army of bandits, led by the villainous Lord Humungus (it was for gasoline I think). He often would muse to himself (and anyone who'd listen) saying that reality was an illusion, and the universe is a hologram, and you should buy gold. Words I took to heart, and have lived by since. In time he will slip into myth with those wondering if he ever really existed, but we all know the truth, LOL ;-)

    Some trivia about Juspion:
    - The reason why the early episodes of the show were very comedic was because Juspion's actor Hikaru Kurosaki was more known for doing comedies at the time however according to sources I've read the reason the tone changed was because Kurosaki requested to be given more serious moments because he didn't want to be typecast.
    - Ken'ichirou's actor Isao Sasaki also sang songs for a number of popular anime like Getter Robo, Grendizer, Casshern, Space Battleship Yamato (Star Blazers), Galaxy Express 999 and The Ultraman anime series. Other toku he sang for include a cover of UltraSeven's song for the 1999 series. He was also the Japanese voiceover dub actor for most of Sylvester Stallone's films, Christopher Reeve in the Superman movies and the Hof himself David Hasselfhof.

    1:40,also..I really feel it odd this has an English release despite it not being a part of VR Troopers. I think this being a part of that show coulda made it better considering who doesn't love giant robots beating the crap outta giant monsters?! It fits. Ride on that popularity that MMPR was known for but Saban...I dunno. They didn't make this into a Season 3 of VR troopers which was a damn waste if they didn't want to go through with making Blue Swat into that 3rd Season.
    What is it with Japanese stuff being poorly received in their native land but well known in other countries?! First was Golion,then this and then Zyuranger..what's next?!
    Well,Juspion is more like Han Solo in character considering this was..well,Star Wars.
    3:48,well considering most of the victims of the week are humans rather than aliens, I kinda cringed..knowing the fact that humans ARE destined to doom themselves. Aliens on the other hand..well..they have different rules and policies as far as I can think of.
    4:58,you know...for babies!!
    5:48,it's Chewbacca. Literally.
    6:19,wait?! Nanbara family? Like Combattler V?
    7:17,not to mention,he voices the one inspiration to Gai from Jetman - Joe The motherfuckkin' Condor from Gatchaman: ua-cam.com/video/yjxnL1Ga9vM/v-deo.html
    9:08,buckethead also looks like Megatron tbh.

    Nice review, but you got one thing wrong: Daileon doesn't act as drilling vehicle. The Gaibin Tank is a separate vehicle altogether. And about the episode you disliked, Juspion handed the baby Megabeast back to the children because he himself grew up alongside Megabeasts as friends/ pets and believed they were not evil by nature. You could notice that he avoided killing Megabeasts until Satan Goth corrupted them.

    • @TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork
      @TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork  4 роки тому

      While that may be true, it was still the way the entire episode was executed that really drove me crazy. It's like he didn't even care what the other point of view was. Plus, like I said, he didn't know the officials were actually the villains, so he could have been stealing from the official government for how he knew.

But I do feel as a long time Doctor Who fan I should point out one thing, the clip you showed the highlight the animatronic mouth movement, that was the actor's lower lip. And honestly considering how notoriously cheap the BBC was back then I don't think they would have splurged to use the tech back then.

But I'm also surprised you didn't say anything about Miya's costume changing as the show goes on. 9:00 I'm going to be honest and I can see it too and I'm not sure why you didn't think it but I once saw that Satan Gorth looked like Darth Vader and Megatron fused into one. 13:24 when I was watching it I felt he looked like a Transformer but maybe it was because Toei was working on that and this at the same time.

But now watching it I just keep thinking "I like Gokaiger but man Toei didn't think things all the way threw before saying Sentai and Metal Heroes are in the universe" Because the Dino teams may have some questions. Also when I was watching I thought why didn't Changeman's villains do something about his villains but then I rewatched your video then I just went "oh that's right they sucked never mind." Also when you made your comment on Shout DVD's for Sentai I would have gotten on you about that but since Shout made me mad back in June I really don't care anymore.
