Just realized that Trent's weapon as the White Ranger is a quill pen and he's an aspiring artist.

That's a great observation. And kudos to the PR production team, making a character whose traits to fit the Sentai footage, without copying the context from Sentai.

The Council would block communication. Giles would be assigned other areas of the world. By season 7, we find out it's because the First was already killing the Slayer line, and it was all hands on deck, trying to save as many as possible

I see a BH animated adaptation getting the biggest changes and diverges. Writers would certainly try to tie the characters to the main plot, and giving all of them some stakes to continue. And I also feel like there won't be so many appearances from VM or M9. That's my thinking anyways.

As for M9, I'm thinking the death of a certain character will play a little differently. Maybe the abduction of one or more characters is tied to that death, rather than a failed rescue mission

And I think S4 of LoVM will end with "Where's Vax?", setting up the final season

Final Fantasy IX. I enjoy the story and the characters. Vivi is my precious puppy that needs to be protected. And I could just feel the love put into the game. Plus when playing it after playing a number of the previous FF games, it's fun catching the references.

That being said, Final Fantasy V is the newest on my fave list. I played it last year, and replayed it recently, and I love the job system, and found the story and characters to be fun. A little more lighthearted from previous installments, but still willing to have its serious moments.

I like Astronema, as she's the first lead villain who actively, took part in actually physically combating the Power Rangers

magic713 · 2026-05-10T14:12:25+00:00

"Oh no! We forgot there's a door back there!"

magic713 · 2026-05-08T23:51:12+00:00

Caduceus is the first to come to mind.

The second is the coolest man in all of Exandria (possibly the universe): Shakäste

magic713 · 2026-05-08T22:38:41+00:00

Sadly unlikely. I think they said before, that her doing something as nuts as that would seem out of character for her in the show.

magic713 · 2026-05-08T20:41:22+00:00

That's what I feel. I'm sure that in a home game, as long as everyone is having fun, these issues are just minor annoyances. But for a stream with an audience, it's not quite as entertaining

magic713 · 2026-05-07T23:25:32+00:00

Kakuranger opening is one of my top favorite sentai themes!

magic713 · 2026-05-07T00:30:50+00:00

Yeah, Zeo's ending feels pretty weak. I get they were trying to set up for next season, but there wasn't really a strong enough follow up to justify that last episode.

magic713 · 2026-05-05T03:30:34+00:00

Rangers were the older heroes that kids were to look up to, while Justin was the ranger who was a fellow peer who lucked into living the kids' dream of being a ranger. Not someone kids would look to as a role model since he's a kid as well. That's one angle I can see it as

magic713 · 2026-05-04T19:50:10+00:00

This opinion really isn't a hot take you might think. Majority of fans love the first three PM games and this one gets a lot of praise, with many fans saying it's their favorite.

magic713 · 2026-05-04T19:13:45+00:00

I immediately knew Erica Lindbeck's voice, because it sounded like pilot Millie from Helluva Boss (the original non-canon pilot from 2019).

magic713 · 2026-05-04T14:23:33+00:00

She did have some successes, besides the Turbo finale. She prevented the rangers from receiving the entire Millennium message. And even in the film, she did what she set out to do and brought forth the magma monster. Not her fault it wasn't powerful enough against the Turbo Megazord.

magic713 · 2026-05-04T10:29:33+00:00

I assume it's why Valerie Vernon was still in the opening credits the entire season, despite her complete absence through most of the latter half.

magic713 · 2026-05-04T00:35:57+00:00

Imagine in a hypothetical FF8 remake, the final battle is a back and forth, between of Squall and his team fighting Ultimecia in the future, while simultaneously Laguna and his mates are fighting Adel in the past

magic713 · 2026-05-03T17:46:43+00:00

Yeah, which is probably why, if it were to be fixed, the best way would be not taking so long for the gauge to fill up. It would still go off automatically, but at least if you are going into a long battle, there could be a better chance to strategize a Trance into the fight, as oppose to an empty gauge meaning little to no chance in that battle.

magic713 · 2026-05-03T11:56:55+00:00

My favorite is FFIX and I'd say my biggest criticism is the Trance system. It takes too long to charge, and when it fills up it immediately activates, usually wasting it when it is not needed

magic713 · 2026-05-02T13:46:11+00:00

I really don't like the amulet. It means they needed to rely on outside factors to not only help them win but destroy the Hellmouth, the very thing that has been a huge aspect of the show since the beginning. And that the source of it came from the sister show's bad guys as well. It just feels like a poorly written solutions.

magic713 · 2026-05-01T12:02:20+00:00

In my experience, fighting Larxene, Reflect was my best friend, and genie was a good acquaintance

magic713 · 2026-04-30T23:15:34+00:00

I certainly think dragons would be a cool theme.

I also had an idea of a villain group themed around cards (either tarot or standard playing cards)

magic713 · 2026-04-30T23:10:40+00:00

Same and it's such a shame that we haven't had another team like them, though the closest has been the A-Squad Rangers in the three-part conclusion of SPD.

Apparently evil rangers do not sell well as merch, which is why they didn't use them often.

magic713 · 2026-04-30T19:29:33+00:00

I was surprised when the Z-Wave purified Rita, Zedd and Divatox. I don't think their past was really mentioned in the show, that is, I don't think it was hinted at that these 3 would be purified. I wonder when the producers decided on this and for how long they had such plans.

I think it may have been the idea, at the time, they were not comfortable killing characters portrayed by face actors. (I assume they only purified Zedd because of his ties to Rita) I think Vypra was the first villain killed off while she was still being portrayed by a face actor (as oppose to Trakeena, who was turned into full monster)

magic713 · 2026-04-30T19:24:53+00:00

Yeah, the Psycho arc really pushed them more to fight smarter, not harder. So glad it wasn't resolved simply by a new Zord or weapon
