Radio Sentai Castranger [57] NIN NIN NIN NIN NIN

Ichida has returned, and he's disgruntled with everyone's terrible job last week! This week on Drive, Gou changes alliance. On Ninninger, the Igasaki's assassin cooks them breakfast, then some of the team goes emo! Finally, we talk about the first round of Gaim Gaiden movies: Zangetsu, the serious drama and character portrait, and Baron, the reason for Kaito's actor to show any sort of emotion!

Radio Sentai Castranger [56] A Starninger is Born

What? An episode without Blue Caster? And what's this? Green and Black are not around either? How will Red and Pink hold up this episode? By inviting Silver, North, and Navy Casters! This week we talk about Drive's amazing plan to get his henshin permission back, Gou's deception by his lady client, and the amazing proper debut of Starninger, Kinji Takigawa, and all his American troupes. As most of the cast was not here, we held off on discussing the Gaiden movies and instead talked about favorite support allies. 

 

BTW we apologize if the audio has occasional bits of reverb, this one took COPIOUS amounts of editing to get it to where it is.

Radio Sentai Castranger [52] Farewell, Silver Caster

Savage Caster joins us for Silver Caster's final week of joining us in person, as he's moving back home to Ottawa. What perfect timing for us to talk about some very special episodes. Drive chases the Ninningers around in this year's Gattai Special, and then we watch 3 episodes of the recently infamous magicaly boy anime, Binan High School Earth Defense Club LOVE, a show that parodies Sailor Moon in all the right AND wrong ways. Can we retain our sanity this week?

Silver Medal [08] Kick'im in the Deck

Two members of the Cast, Navy Caster Crunchman, and Orange Caster Noble, join Silver, Blue, Green, and Pink for a nice, friendly look at the opening episodes of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight. Lots of us say that is was superior to Kamen Rider Ryuki, but is it really? Its opening episodes don't bode well as we get into some in depth and heated arguments about both DK and its source material, Kamen Rider Ryuki. Then we talk about our favorite and least favorite Power Ranger teamups!

Radio Sentai Castranger [51] Gou for Broke

The full six-man team comes together. Lots of news this week. We argue quite divisively about Kamen Rider Chaser's fully revealed suit. Drive Type High Speed becomes a gentleman, the identity of ToQ-7gou is ACTUALLY revealed, quite to our surprise, as well as the identity of Starninger, and three veterans cameo on Ninninger soon. 

 

We then talk about this week's episodes: Kiriko violently nurses Chase, Type Formula goes for a Pit Stop, and Gou pumps iron and gets super jelly. Meanwhile in Ninninger, Kasumi and Yakumo struggle to hold the spotlight as this week's kind-seeming monster hands kids balloons, and we get a visitor from space. 

 

Finally, our topic of the week is the ToQger-Kyoryuger movie, which takes two shows about really abstract concepts that force-feed themselves into tangibility and literally cross the streams, as they fight the villain that was hinted at, at the end of the Kyoryuger series. When two derpy teams collide, the result is a rainbow-colored hilarious disaster.
