Paul joins us, for part of the episode anyways, as we begin the uphill march of catching up on Rider and Sentai now that Super Hero Time has returned to the airwaves. Ichi summarizes the interesting bits of the filler specials, then we get introduced to As, the Dark Izu, if you will, who gives us yet another recap special about Metsuboujinrai.net, then in Kiramager Tametomo pulls some Epic Gamer Moves to fix a time loop. Our feature topic this week is Lvieman, a sentai with a lot of franchise firsts, but what we're focusing on is the debut of the first midseason added Rangers. Oh, and a furry shoots a lightning rainbow after piloting a Guyver. ...wait, what?
Paul's here and Lane is threatening us with a Fortnite shotgun as we go over this week's news. Kamen Rider learns what branding is, a new evil Ryusoulger, Gatack got married, a Build toy nobody asked for, and yet more apparel and accessories!
It's almost Ichi's birthday, and how better to celebrate than gathering a bunch of Castrangers and talking about one of his most formative and influential shows from his childhood, which just so happens to be the only original show Saban ever produced? That's right, it's Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, so you better put The Sound Around You and listen to whether or not the camp and lore of this 90's tokusatsu show steeped in Irish mythology holds up today.
Don't let your memes be dreams! The Castrangers finally cave to public demand and talk about... *sigh* BAKUGAN. And MAN does Ichi have a lot to complain about, as expected. But enough about that, we're going back to one of our old favorites, After V, the show about sentai that drink booze after saving the world! In this set of episodes, Treasure Yellow lazes his way into our hearts. And speaking of an old friend, who's that coming into the studio today...?
:O Tom's joining us over Discord this week! A light sampling of news, including a Kiramager anime, Eiji's underwear, and a certificate for staying at home.
Our goodbud Cel joins us as we continue the invasion hiatus plot arc, by way of in lieu of Zero-One and Kiramager, as voted on by the fans once again, we continue our journey into Symphogear, this time meeting Ichi's favorite character Chris. Our feature topic, aka what was supposed to be last month's Showa Sentai Special, is Sun Vulcan. Can a show with only three heroes really stand up to the rest of sentai?
Some very profound discussion about Kamen Rider Zero-Two, a lot of shirts and YET MORE RINGS, and the potential early end of Zero-One headline this week's news corner. And *gasp* is that Cel?!
