Radio Sentai Castranger

Today on Castranger we talk about the horror that happens when gothic lolita meets McDonalds meets Jaws - Gritta of the Shadow Line!

Oh, also Kamen Rider Gaim reaches his final form, or whatever. Something about fruit salad?

Sorry again for the late upload. It's being worked on, we promise.

 

Since we were too busy with Anime North to record an episode, this one features our discussion on two weeks' worth of episodes!

In Kamen Rider Gaim, we talk about what happens when an armored hero adopts a pet android who turns out to be a kickass battle robot from another franchise, then we get more Exposition Theatre with quite a cherry-popping climax.

In ToQger news, we talk about the discoveries of the Fire and Police Suport Resshas, and Magical Detective Hikari's amazing adventures.

No feature topic this week due to the double episode discussion.

First off, greetings to all our new fans following Anime North! Leave a comment to say hi! 

Secondly, sorry this episode was so late. Anime North preparations and all. 

We exchange Green Caster for Pink this time, as Paul is nowhere to be found. 

Today we talk about the "amazing" survival of Takatora, the Exposition Inves, more bastardous Micchy scheming, and belt mechanics becoming confusing again. 

ToQer's amazing resurgence seems to have been lampshaded, but Gritta the Chicken Nugget proves entertaining to no end. 

Then the eras combine in the Gaim x Wizard Sengoku Movie War, as shit about a big tree gets complicated.

Kamen Rider x Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle

Both Overkill and Litrid bail on this week's, and Cell Saga / North Caster step into their place. Or they fused into him. Whichever. 

We fight our first monsters of the week. 

We marvel over Mitsuzane's daywear. 

ToQger continues to surprise us, but was this their plan all along?

Cell Saga, aka North Caster, replaces Paul on this week's show as we talk about the glorious return of Kamen Riders Bravo and Gridon, then a slightly less boring episode of ToQger featuring a Diesel engine, then we talk about our favorite and least favorite Sentai suit designs.

We mull over the newly revealed Gaim Jimba Peach. Paul has fully become Green Caster Nigo, and decides that ToQger is actually way more deep and artistic than the rest of us care to imagine while we berate this episode for being devoid of anything resembling either plot, comedy, or character development. Then we talk about our favorite and least favorite tokusatsu toys, being qualified to do so by the merit of our dedicated tokusatsu toy room. Also, we recently did  a video of the pre-release alpha for Chroma Squad, a recently-Kickstarted Super Sentai TV studio game! Check that out here!
