    I wonder if thousands of years ago all the villains across Power Rangers got together and had a meeting to determine who whould attack Earth when and where.

      I'd be willing to even believe the Wild Zords are the spirit animals of those who fell during the war and had learned to become one with their spirits, hence why all the wild force emblems had "spirit of the earth" in the jackets.

  • @Nintendon85
    @Nintendon85 4 года назад +82

    21:58 I actually disagree with you on that. By the new zords being mainly enhancements, it gives the original zords more time to shine and keeps them from being obsolete. Which, to me anyway, works better because the original zords are often considered the most connected to the rangers themselves in the lore, sometimes even being extensions of the rangers. And because of that, the megazords are more symbolic to the team rather then interchangeable robots with little personality.

    • @dnmstarsi
      @dnmstarsi 4 года назад +8

      Personally, I'm mixed on that. On one hand, enhancement zords do give the primary MZ more screentime overall and not pushed aside for better MZ. Plus the other stuff you said. On the other hand, it kinda gets tiring seeing the same MZ over and over without switching up MZ and enhancement zords don't do much on their own without combining with the main MZ as opposed to other enhancement zords like with Wild Force and Overdrive near the end. Combinations are an exception but at least JF got a secondary MZ.

    • @allen2reckless676
      @allen2reckless676 2 года назад +8

      Actually in this specific power rangers all the zords are divided between the rangers who had to do a task to get im which they had to over come trials of their own to obtain. So technically the zord they earned are connected to them in some way. Thats why either zords in this show are on the same level of connection they just use their mains one more cuz well duh its their main. Idk why other rangers dont do that but it is what it is

    For a Power Rangers series who's script was written during the writer's strike at the time, it was a blast to watch! It has a wonderful, relatable cast, top-notch fight coordination in morphed and unmorphed form, fantastic megazord battles and a great overall theme of self-improvement, redemption and trust. It's so good, I was actually looking forward to the next episode every time I watch this series! I give it a recommended 9/10, although it makes me wish there is a second season, similar to how the Neo-Saban Power Rangers were made, albeit it was under Nickelodeon's contract.
    Looking forward to watching its super sentai counterpart with Gekirangers!

    The good guys in childrens shows can’t take the logical step of killing the bad guys (outside of monster of the week) so they always end up locking them away. At least that’s my explanation. That’s why at the end of the zordon era all the “living” bad guys were transformed. Machines were totally acceptable to smash tho.

    Something like that happen in a episode of Hey Anorld! when the guy has trained at karate and when he has stand out against bullies, they were sent to the hospital and the guy was viewed by the others as evil.

Considering in the original, he was immortal lol I am obviously ocmmenting here without having seen the jungle fury finale, maybe they adapt that too, but, from the start, I imagine they went that route because the OG did aswell and it had a reason

    just to fill in the track suit statement, the Pia Zhua's Gekiranger counterpart, Geki Juken Beast Arts, operated a sports equipment company called SCRTC (pronounced "Scratch") as a front. Their ranger suits formed out of the company's products, including the helmet which starts as a bike helmet that expands around the head.

      The company is mostly a designer and manufacturer and the team is based out of their corporate headquarters.
      As a cover story, the rangers are legally employed in the company’s “special development department.”

    You know? I stopped watching Power Rangers after Dino Thunder.. I was growing out of it and was getting ready to go into High school at the time after Dino Thunder Aired. After a few years, THIS was the first season I came back to, wanting to see what I've missed and considering I dislike the cars/vehicle pr seasons. I can say this about Jungle Fury.. I loved it. I thought it was interesting and kinda different. And the acting was good for the most part. Also the lovely lady who plays Lilly played in Cabin in the Woods. I love her eyes. Anyways, I did like this season, but sadly I didn't watch RPM or any of the other seasons, but later watched Dino Charge. Sadly after I watched Jungle Fury, I started getting into the Sentai which I thought was a lot better then Power Rangers, but that's because the seasons I have watched have better acting (Goseiger, Gokaiger, aka megaforce and super megaforce, Shinkenger, aka Samurai, and Kyoruger aka dino charge (Which I thought was a good season)

    You know, with how easy it apparently is to tap into the morphing grid that civilians can do it (Cam from Ninja Storm, Hartford from Operation Overdrive, RJ, and Antonio from Samurai) how come we don't see more government backed Ranger teams, I mean prior to Beast Morphers, the only Ranger team that is backed by the government is Lightspeed, and before anyone brings them up: RPM is in another universe and SPD and Time Force are both from the future

    • @wchan39
      @wchan39 4 года назад +6

      With Cam and others, they probably had help from previous rangers.
      The governments probably had to learn how to tap into the morphing grid by themselves from scratch which can take a lot of time, money and manpower. Which can explain why it took until Beast Morphers to be able to use the morphing grid on such a large scale.

    Quick note about the first mini-arc with the five monsters- they were based off the Five Deadly Venoms, one of the most famous Kung Fu movies in cinema history. The monsters were monstrous versions of the Venoms themselves- Snake, Lizard, Scorpion, Toad, and Centipede, and their kung fu demonstrations during their introduction was almost identical to the demonstrations of what the Venoms could do as their master described them. I think the reason why Dai Shi never had them fight together as a unit was because, like the Venoms, they never got along. (In the movie Snake and Centipede are evil, Toad and Lizard are good, and the Scorpion is a wild card that remained a mystery as to whose side he was on until the end fight.)
