Noejeh - Non Thai Guy

“ Sir, please, I don’t wanna go ”

Unlike popular #deadfisheyes Kento Yamazaki can actually act. Of course, people who have been clueless about this young guy’s acting career should bear in mind that Death Note is not the only show he should be judged at. There are plenty of amazing performances he has made through the years… In Orange, we get to see Kento reunite with his asadora co-star and Mare herself, Tao Tsuchiya.

The next Sentai, Space Sentai Kyuranger, has recently been unveiled to investors and merchandisers in Japan. While Bandai tries their best to keep things under wraps, leaks always manage to find their way to the fans. As usual, we get the toy catalogue listings first and some blurry photos.

The main motif is constellations while a secondary motif seems to be planets (in the form of spherical collectibles called Kyutama/Kyuball). There will be nine members of the team though there is speculation that there will be a main team of five with four auxiliary members (similar to Kyoryuger). 

ShishiRed (LionRed) -> Leo

SasoriOrange (ScorpionOrange) -> Scorpius

OokamiBlue (WolfBlue) -> Lupus

TenbinGold (BalanceGold) -> Libra

OushiBlack (BullBlack) -> Taurus

HebitsukaiSilver (Snake-CharmerSilver) -> Ophiuchus

ChameleonGreen -> Chamaeleon

WashiPink (EaglePink) -> Aquila

KajikiYellow (SwordfishYellow) -> Dorado

They transform by inserting a Kyutama into the Seiza Blaster (Constellation Blaster), which is a gauntlet-like device. Each Ranger has a corresponding Kyutama that they use to transform with (i.e. Shishi Kyutama). They are also armed with a weapon, which can be formed from a combination of the KyuAxe and KyuSpear. ShishiRed uses the KyuSword, SasoriOrange uses the KyuSpear, OokamiBlue uses the KyuClaw, TenbinGold uses the KyuCrossbow, OushiBlack uses the KyuAxe, HebitsukaiSilver uses the KyuSickle, ChameleonGreen uses the KyuRapier, WashiPink uses the KyuShot, and KajikiYellow uses the KyuSlasher.

Other Kyutama include Kujira (Whale -> Cetus), Kenbikyou (Microscope -> Microscopius), Ryouken (Hunting dog -> Canes Venatici), Andromeda, and Perseus. Each Kyutama, when inserted into the Seiza Blaster, acts as a ‘joystick’.

The main mecha of the Kyurangers is called KyurenOh. It is formed from Shishi Voyager, Ookami Voyager, Oushi Voyager, Chameleon Voyager, and Kajiki Voyager. KyurenOh has a secondary combination formed using Shishi Voyager, Sasori Voyager, Tenbin Voyager, Hebitsukai Voyager, and Washi Voyager.

『溺れるナイフ』

make me choose: anon asked: shinkenger or ninninger

One of the aspects I want to focus more on once the main part of the live-blog is over is the different aspects of Hammy’s character we get to see in this episode and, in general, in the series so far.

As I’m writing this episode 4 just aired, so the idea I’m trying to convey are partially influenced by further development in the story that, of course, are not understandable if only this episode is taken into account. I indeed feel that it is a pity for the show to have such a little number of female characters (2 out of 9, possibly 11 or 13 main rangers); nevertheless, I also want to believe that, especially in the case of Hammy, the writers are trying to fix quantity with quality, by giving us a complex and potentially more rounded and realistic character.

I especially like how Hammy seems to always oscillate between a carefree, cheerful and dynamic persona to a more worried and somehow pessimistic attitude. This is not only true in the wake of the team’s defeat on Jigama; her disbelief in regards to Lucky’s absurd stunts from last episode, while primarily being an assessment of her more rational point of view on things if compared to the others, can also be interpreted, IMHO, as an indication of her lack of confidence in this whole Kyuranger thing.

This does not mean that Hammy is not devoted to her cause as a member of the rebellion, on the contrary: the fact that she was one of the first (if not the first one?) to manifest her Kyutama makes me see her as one of the most focused on the team when it comes to their mission.

Yet, maybe because of her young age, or maybe because of something that happened to her before the meeting with Lucky, there is always this lack of confidence in the team’s ability and in the legend that wants them as actually capable of bringing peace to the Galaxy again.

A legend that, so far, has found in Raptor one of its strongest believer: the reason for this, as well as the implication of the existence of such a tale are, as I’ve already said, one of the most intriguing part of the show, and one of the things I’m mostly looking forward to be explained later on.
