    Correction: Rita’s voice actress Barbara Goodson is still alive. In fact, she’s still doing voice work today. You might be confused with her Japanese actress from Super Sentai series. She passed away years ago.

    13:27 No, Barbara Goodson's still alive. She was in Once & Always just last year
    EDIT: And, to add onto that, the reason she's "Robo-Rita" in that special is because of Countdown to Destruction and what happened to her in that episode. Besides, it's not like it'd be first time they recast Rita if they wanted to give her a more human body. When Rita was re-introduced to MMPR after Zed took her place, she had a "makeover", so someone else could play her. That actress was still dubbed over Barbara Goodson, but she wasn't the sentai actress

    Gonna say I was a part of this games community & as someone who is a huge Power Rangers & Super Sentai fan. I love the inclusion of rangers outside of MMPR.
    Also Eric is Dan. The Quantum Ranger, whose personality is Vergil BEFORE Vergil. Also RJ is Vergil from the DMC Reboot. We know Adam is Johnny.

      Every good Power Rangers season has an equally better Super Sentai season. Power Rangers Dino Thunder was good, but Bakaryuu Sentai Abaranger is on another level, Power Rangers SPD being another banger season, but Tokosou Sentai Dekaranger is better again, Power Rangers Ninja Storm was also good, but Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger was better, Power Rangers Turbo was being way too serious, Gekisou Sentai Carranger being more light hearted, Power Rangers Time Force is good, but Mirai Sentai Timeranger is better, Power Rangers In Space being a space epic, concepts taken from Denji Sentai Megaranger which was a great season as well, Power Rangers Super Megaforce was essentially an add-on for Power Rangers Megaforce the year peior where both took most of the stuff from Tensou Sentai Goseiger and Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger respectively and were 20 times better than Power Rangers Megaforce and Power Rangers Super Megaforce, Power Rangers Zeo being amazing, but can not compete with Chouriki Sentai Ohranger, even Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is the OG, but Kyoryuu Sentai Zyuranger is the 16th Super Sentai season that Power Rangers used and also taking the mechas/zords and concepts from the 17th Super Sentai season Gosei Sentai Dairanger for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 2 and for the third season as well as Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers using the 18th Super Sentai season Ninja Sentai Kakuranger for the weapons and abilities.

    Scorpina was a recurring villain in MMPR season 1 and 2, first debuting in Green with Evil Part 3. Her last physical appearance was in season 2's Goldar's Vice-Versa. She was used in archived footage in The Good, The Bad and the Stupid and the Power Rangers Netflix special, Once & Always. Her fate was revealed in the Boom comic book, Power Rangers: Soul of the Dragon, where Rita betrays her and is banished to the Talos Dimension, where she avoids the Z-Wave and canonically becomes the last Power Rangers villain.
    Also, I didn't remember Scorpina until I binged all the episodes and the movies last year so.....yeah.

      Wow, Scorpina had a completely different fate in the Japanese sentai. At the end of Zyurangers, she and Goldar had a baby. So even though they, along with Rita and her other minions, are resealed in the capsule, they all enjoy their time together over the new born baby. (It's worth pointing out that Rita in the Japanese version attached earth because she lost her son. Now she has a baby to entertain.)

    Explanation for Serpentera and its lack of battery power.
    In Dairanger, Serpentera was actually called Daijinryuu and it was not used as a means of evil. It was actually meant to purge the world if it senses too much strife amongst the two warring tribes, the Dai and Goma tribes. In the end, its purposes was balance by any means necessary.
    Zyuranger (the source of the original Power Rangers) has the concept of the team consisting of five warriors from the era of the dinosaurs frozen in time and would be released if the witch, Bandora (Rita's name in that version), is released from her jar prison.
    Poisondra is from Dino Charge. I didn't watch Dino Fury or the sentai version, Kyoryuger. But, I do recognize the costume from the Kyoryuger's opening. Candelilla is the character's name in Kyoryuger.

    My first exposure to Power Rangers was Lost Galaxy and Lightspeed Rescue, and I REALLY got into it during the Disney Era. For me, the appeal of Power Rangers was how fresh each season was. Every year had its own cast, motifs, and self-contained story with a beginning, middle and end, a formula Sentai keeps using to this day. There's always another surprise around the corner. The more things on the American side harken back to Mighty Morphin era and nostalgia and continuity, I actually get LESS interested. It's just a case of Power Rangers being different things for different people, really.

    • @Code7Unltd
      @Code7Unltd 11 днів тому

      @buchiklop110 10 днів тому

      Eh, the nostalgia pandering can get overdone, but I appreciate what they did in Dino/Cosmic Fury and Once & Always because it actually genuinely had proper continuity and built off plot points from previous seasons. Being completely standalone is fine in Sentai since each show is, more or less, in its own universe, but Power Rangers (aside from RPM and Dino Charge) is in one big shared universe, so it makes no sense that we have 30 different Ranger teams running around and NOTHING from previous seasons get brought up at all, aside from the crossovers.

    Tommy has had five different powers in his life: MMPR Green, MMPR White, Zeo Red, Turbo Red, and Dino Thunder Black. A few years ago they actually invented the Master Morpher for him to freely switch between the powers, which he first used in the show in the Super Ninja Steel episode "Dimensions in Danger."
    As for this game specifically, this game is one of the prime examples of "wringing out money via DLC." The game initially launched with NINE characters. For a 3v3 fighter. While three more were added with a free update, the remaining fighters were put in via five different DLC packs (four for the Rangers, one for Ryu and Chun-Li).
    The Street Fighter characters were actually an extension of a crossover with the mobile game Power Rangers: Legacy War. In the mobile game, Ryu, Chun-Li, Bison, Cammy, Ken, and Akuma appeared, though only Ryu and Chun-Li actually got Ranger forms. Everyone else was in their default SF2 outfits using their SFV models. Hasbro eventually did make Ranger forms for Cammy & Ken in the Lightning Collection, but they never were brought into the games.
    As for Sentai vs. Original footage, Season 1 DID have original morphed footage, but they were mostly only the Rangers standing still or in the Command Center. The only fight scene was in the "Return of the Green Ranger" 2-parter. In Season 2, Saban kept the original suits while Japan switched out for Dairanger, so after a handful of episodes reusing leftover stock footage, every ground fight scene was original for Power Rangers until late in Season 3 when the Alien/Aquitian Rangers came around. From Zeo onwards, it's always been a mix of stock and original footage, with it being obvious in the pre-Wild Force seasons due to how bright the original footage.
    Also, just to note, the show moved filming locations. After Wild Force, they moved from California to New Zealand, where they continued filming until the final season Cosmic Fury last year.

    My experience with Power Rangers is abundance in my childhood. The first time I saw anything PR was the Mighty Morphing and Turbo Power Rangers movies but I never saw their respective shows but in terms of the TV series I watched it religiously in the 2000s'. I saw Wild Force, Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder, SPD (my favorite), and a little bit of Mystic Force. The last PR show I watched constantly was Samurai but then just stopped afterwards. I remember watching those shows with my big brother and having pretty fond memories. I even saw the 2017 Power Rangers movie. It was ok with great moments here and there. 🍩
    I always knew about this game's existence even seeing Ryu and Chun Li being in it as guest fighters but I never took the time to actually see the gameplay but now seeing it in this video I legit wanna get it for myself cause it looks hype AF.

    I find it baffling that there's no Ninja Storm nor Dino Thunder representation. They were very great seasons that are basically 2nd and 3rd to MMPR's popularity. Both seasons kicked off the Disney era into high gear and was very influential to the series as a whole. Even though S.P.D. is my personal favorite, and I love that Kat and Commander Cruger are in. It's unfortunate that the seasons that set a new standard way after MMPR, doesn't get any acknowledgment.

    It's actually pretty easy to tell what's original footage and what's reused Super Sentai footage in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The suits noticeably don't fit the American actors as well, so anytime the suits are baggy, it's original footage. It's espionage obvious with Trini because in Super Sentai, the yellow ranger was a guy, which is why the pink suit has a skirt and yellow doesn't. Another obvious tell is the green ranger. In Super Sentai, the green ranger's shoulder pads were either damaged or weren't sent (I've seen both claims and am uncertain which correct), so the power rangers team created this really cheap looking foam substitute. So, if the green ranger is wearing the good-looking hard rubber shoulder pads, it's Super Sentai footage. If the green ranger is wearing the cheap foam shoulder pads, it's original footage.

    I watched up through most of In Space and was that kid in my class who got made fun of for still watching Power Rangers. I've seen bits of Dino Thunder and I think the end of Super Mega Force. And I watched the TTRPG show Hyper Force. I keep telling myself I'm eventually gonna watch the others. As for the ones I've rewatched as an adult, I've made it partway through Zeo. Once I got past Mighty Morphin nostalgia, it got harder to binge very much of it in a row.
    I haven't played this game, as I don't really have any I would play it with, but I do enjoy the Boom comics. They really expand on some of the concepts that the series generally gives surface level attention to. It was cool to see so many comic cameos in this.

    MMPR seasons 2 and 3 only used Sentai footage for the Zords. All three non-giant villain footage (infusing Rita) was original as were the ground fight 😮footage. Though they began to weave Sentai ground footage back in, first with some of the White Ranger scenes (when on his own away from the team) them the ninja suit fights and finally the Alien Rangers. The reason ditched Mighty Morphin' in the first place and went to Zeo was so they could save money and go back to using Sentai footage for most things outside unmorphed scenes.

    My journey with the series is that I've seen every iteration from Mighty Morphin' through Time Force and that's really where the bulk of my knowledge stops. I was the right age for the teams that followed Mighty Morphin' and Zeo. In terms of Sentai that I've watched, Timeranger (Time Force) remains my favorite. In terms of Power Rangers, I have a soft spot in my heart for the second half of Turbo (it was a better series when it allowed itself to get goofy and silly with it) and Lost Galaxy remains a favorite for me. I re-watched Lightspeed Rescue for the first time in years a few months ago and it ended up being a series I really enjoyed. I've never read the comics, but I've heard good things about them and feel like I should give them a shot sometime!
    I just recently found out that there's an arcade-style Power Rangers beat-em-up called Rita's Rewind that's coming out later this year.
