Roundabouts the same time this episode aired, Bandai sold S.H. Figuarts of Dragoranger and Tyranoranger... and quietly made sure to include the optional stars-and-stripes neck-piece and belt so you could turn them into the Powerful Rangers XD
Aparently power rangers SPD was super popular in japan so they dubbed it with the original sentai actors doing the voices. In akiba rangers (the show this clip is from) the actor for deka red is seen walking out of a SPD recording day 😂
@@AquaFan1998 Kamen Rider Dragon Knight also got a Japanese dub with a new opening and Ren's actor playing his counterpart along with Deneb from Den-O as Xaviax(the villain in that show)

@@mrd2392No it's not, Super Sentai just took the "Zord" aspect of Spider-man. The original sentai while was released in 1975 but the Spider-man one was released in 1978.
@@TheMatthardyv1 Not really, cause The Amazing Spider-man comic didn't have the mecha part and only existed in the Japanese adaptation of Spider-man and also it wasn't even the first one to use the mecha gimmick since it was already use in shows like "Mazinger Z", "Getter Robo" and "Astro Boy" the manga which even predates the Original The Amazing Spider-man Comic. Astro Boy (1952) and Spider-man (1962).
Look up Starninger from Ninninger (aka the Gold Ranger from Power Rangers Ninja Steel). His helmet’s shaped like a cowboy hat, his weapon like a guitar, and his morpher like a hamburger.
It's a tradition that goes all the way back to the moment Hamilton and Burr slapped skin before the Battle of Yorktown. They were bitter rivals who came together to beat the s--- out of a common enemy. Truly, the High Five is the embodiment of the American Spirit.
@@Cody-Bear "Jin" is often a suffix to a word that denotes the subject as a "person". Like a "Hakujin" is a White Person. Amerika is the romanji spelling, so an Amerikajin is me making up a word to simply mean "American person".
If this were Transformers, I bet the quote would be "You think you can take our Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus and claim they're Diaclone? Talk about lame!"
Doesn't it go even further than that? Didn't Diaclone exist because of Gi Joe? Where originally in Japan they were using modified mold of Gi Joe figures or something like that in order to make diaclones in the beginning? Which is also part of the reason for why Hasbro is involved with Transformers to begin with. What's even funnier is how Tommy and Hasbro share transformers but in Japan you will sometimes see toys marked with American packaging rather than Japanese packaging and they call it special edition or something like that. Which I thought was wild. With Transformers, at least I viewed it as Hasbro making the cheap Transformers that you would buy for your kid and Tommy making the more expensive high end ones that can easily cost somewhere between $50-100 for each one, or even more.
@@suna9555 no Dino Thunder had an episode based on the japanese series. The American Rangers learned about the Japanese Sentai Rangers on an episode of Dino Thunder.
@@suna9555 the episode was called "lost and found in translation". Connor, Kira and Ethan react to an episode of their japanese counter- parts, but connor doesn't really like the show and feels like he and the others are being made fun of. Kira and Ethan however eventually help connor realize that the show wasn't as bad as he thought it was.
I love how you can look at this in 2 ways and both make sense. Making fun of fans who think sentai copied power rangers and making fun of sentai fans who get all defensive over fans watching power rangers. Either way it’s fun
It's essentially a parody/diss of those power rangers stans that thinks that power ranger is the original and not actually supposed to be tommy and jason
I think It's real intentions was pointing to people who think power ranger are the original and japan just copied them. Their behavior was not the series but the fan base.!!!(I guess)
Ok, as someone that enjoyed Power Rangers alot growing up while and acknowledged that Sentai came first since when I was a kid I didn't know much about Sentai until I discovered it? I think I had a good laugh at this clip XD lol.
You can really tell the that These Dudes sure did Represent American Power Rangers on their Own Way by Making the Zyu Ranger Actors Taller than the Regular Japanese Akiba Rangers....
I live in Angel Grove and took jr. karate under Tommy Oliver when he was doing community classes. True story🍸 No, for real, I live where they shot unmorphed PR scenes, and took jr. karate in JDF's community classes. So close enough. If you live in SoCal, visit Vasquez Mountains or Castaic Lake Park. Things'll look awfully familiar.
That's hilarious but it would be even funnier if at the end the real actors would appear and be like " yeah Sentai came first, by the way I LOVED your customes can I use them as a power up?"
Y'all ever notice whenever Japanese properties do a reference to their American counterparts it's always to dunk on them in a fight? Like just let us have our edgier godzillas and our teens with attitude in peace! 🤣
No, it was what started the trend of having mechas in Super Sentai Sentai itself was inspired by Gatchaman (G-Force, Battle of the Planets, Eagle Riders whatever)
Why they are so mean?.... if I had to guess is because Haim Saban (The guy who brought Super Sentai here) HAS A PRETTY BAD REPUTATION... not of being a bad person (i wouldn't be surprised if he was)... but someone nobody wants to work with... known to be really bad
Funny how it still says Zyuranger on their power morphers LOL Then again theyre using the OG suits and not the ones that were made state sides with the fluffy green ranger golden shield
Correct me if im wrong, but i think if you look real closely at the green rangers suit, they got the chest piece accurate to how it looked for mighty morphin power rangers.
It’s kind of weird to see that when the mighty morphin power rangers were actually in a matter of speaking goody two shoes. Yeah they had their selfish moments but in terms of character they’d be more or less like Superman in terms of being a Boy Scout.
I love Japanese Jason and Tommy's reactions when they say Power Rangers is the basis for Sentai. Japanese Jason: I thought we were the knockoffs? Japanese Tommy: Just go with it, dude... No one cares anymore.
