  • Back in 1975, Toei and Shotaro Ishinomori created a team based Tokusatsu series featuring five soldiers in rainbow colored uniforms titled Himitsu Sentai Goranger. Unbeknownst to them, the show would go on to spawn an entire franchise that continues even to this day. With that in mind, is Goranger a worthy kick-off or just something that skated by through sheer luck? Watch to find out.
    This review is dedicated to Baku Hatakeyama. RIP Kiranger.

    Fun Fact: Hiroshi Miyauchi, recognised as the lead of the then recent Kamen Rider V3, was hesitant to accept the role of Aorenger as he was already committed to another show and did not like the idea of playing second fiddle to Akaranger. In fact, casting the toku veteran as the cool Blue Ranger to complement Aka Ranger was pursued as a draw for audiences since it was feared at the time that red was seen as a girls' color. Ishinomori himself convinced Miyauchi to take the role of Akira Shinmei by identifying him as the Sasaki Kojiro to Tsuyoshi Kaijo's Miyamoto Musashi. Miyauchi was accomodated by having Aorenger be captain of the Variblune, allowing him to film scenes separate from the rest of the cast as well as spending more time voicing over Aorenger than appearing in the flesh for production of the early episodes. Miyauchi's presence was also highlighted by having his character appear last in the opening credits, despite Aorenger being the second Gorenger.

    I've only seen the first couple of episodes so I can't really say much about my own experiences with the series but I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed those episodes and I thoroughly enjoyed this review. I do like how, even though they joke around a lot, they don't go with that "We can't show anything remotely frightning because it's a kid's show" mentality. Also, I'm glad to hear that about the music and effects becuase you certainly can't say the same about the Kamen Rider series airing at the same time and especially not the following Kamen Rider series. For me, 70s toku is a hit or miss so I'm glad to know how enjoyable the first Sentai series is. Also, are all these episodes torrents because if not I would really like to watch this series.

    Goranger being the first Super Sentai for Toei and made in the same decade as Kamen Rider as well as Toei Animation shows like Devilman and Cutie Honey thanks to Go Nagai giving Toei the permission to make shows adapted from his manga.
    I think in the 1970s Anime as well as Live Action Japanese shows really start to form their own niche genre as well as their own elements from the hero squadron genre perhaps around the same time as DC were forming the Justice League and Marvel were developing the Avenges in their comics.

    at the 10:15 mark, you mention that nothing had occured due to him transforming and his leg getting better, maybe the Goranger suits also heals injuries when in use, since most of the early Sentai shows are based around science as the source of their powers, it could make sense for the suits to assist medically as well as in combat.

      It might just be a culture thing. It seems more often than not they are a one and done type of society. Granted, anime has changed a lot since then as now they are constantly doing sequel seasons and stuff that weren't based off a manga or something, but still. It could also be because their original yellow ranger actor is dead.

    • @bluevegas01
      @bluevegas01 5 років тому

      Two things. #1, correct me if I'm wrong, but if I recall, Goranger wasn't accepted as the "first" sentai till the 90's as it didn't have mechs. Battle Fever J had that crown as being the "first" up until then. #2, you also have to admit there is a HUGE generation difference with Goranger being 44 years old and MMPR being only 26 years old. MMPR generation is still kickin and in their prime to keep the hype up while the Goranger generation is either up there in age or getting up there in age thus the hype steadily going down.

    There is so much to talk about since this is the very first Super Sentai Season. And I have just finished watching it as part of my Super Sentai Marathon.
    The music while very 70’s I like the main songs, and there was a few tracks that I did like.
    The effects I weren't really bothered by expectilly since it was the very first Super Sentai Series, and even then I enjoy cheep practical effects 95% more than the live action movies that overused CGI.
    I like the Ranger’s costumes such as the number of stripes, and how very vibrant the costumes are with the capes, with my only complaint being the holes in their helmets.
    And It was also cool seeing the series changed by it’s latter half such as a new bar, new bikes, vehicles, weapons, and even Black Cross Army get a new base that isn’t just covered with rocks.
    The main characters I thought were really good with my top favorites being Oiwa as Kiranger, and Peggy as Momoranger.
    Though what really holds this series back for me is the overall writing and the large amount of episodes.
    Granted I know that this is the first Sentai show and it was written back in the 70’s and it didn’t had a lot of the stuff such as the mecha.
    But I still had high expectations just from the first 5 episodes.
    And I actually did enjoy the last episode since the reason the Furrier fought the Rangers was because of his horoscope warning him of his demise and he wanted to prove it wrong by fighting the Rangers and nearly won, but then due to the constellation he was weaken, meaning he does have a weakness and they had to find it.
    They defeated Golden Mask but all it did was revealed the location where there base is and even there town was in ruins.
    But then they learned about the star constellation Cassiopeia thanks to Taro’s riddle. And it was a real constellation that I didn’t knew existed until after episode 84, and it just so happen to have 5 stars, and have syllables of the Rangers names.
    So I have to wonder if they planned this out from the beginning or if they managed to found it on the fly, because for me it worked perfectly.
    Though granted the revel at the end was kinda dumb, and it just reuses old stock footage from a previous episode, but even then I was expecting a very bare bones finally, but it wasn’t anyware as bad as you pointed out, and even then it was very satifing to see the Gorangers deffet the army since episode 1.
    But for the rest of the episodes It felt very agrage as there wasn’t any that I disliked nor was there any episodes that I truly liked, it just kinda falls into the middle for me, and the fact that it was 84 episodes made it even harder for me.
    So yeah I can’t say I really enjoy it as much as you do, but I am really glad I to see where it began, and I’m looking forward to J.A.K.Q. since it’s only 35 episodes so I quickly finished it before you know it.
    If I was to rate it I give it a 6.5 out of 10. And yes that’s how I usually rate things.

      I was never a fan of the single general format used here as well as the first few Kamen Rider series. It feels like a no brainer to have generals work along side each other and or sabotage each other's efforts. With the one general at a time that gets replaced by a new one format, it's easy for them all to become interchangeable and the show's progression to be gauged only by who's leading the villains.

      It all depends on when JAKQ gets fully fansubbed (or released by Shout!). I was planning to review Maskman next year, but I may wait to see what Shout!'s plans are for the Pre-Zyu stuff. Granted, it would probably take them two year's to get to Maskman even if they did get more frequent with the Pre-Zyu stuff, so I may do so anyway.

    '70s Ishinomori's shows had some James Bond feeling with espionage and mystery, this reminds me so much of the first Kamen Rider series but with 5 heroes it has more variancy to the plot.

      If this sixth member was real back there, i would imagine his color would be either black, orange, gold, silver, cyan, purple, navy, crimson, gray, white, brown, magenta, or bronze. I'm don't know.
