Enter (Go-Busters)
Main antagonist, well the main villain is Messiah but he is the main guy the Go-Busters fight.
Here's what I didn't understand from Shinkenger: If Juzo was a human who fell to Gedou and so was Dayuu, why didn't she have a human form? Or did she become a full Gedoushu? But if she did, how did she stay out of the Sanzu river for so long? Very curious indeed. Also you forgot Long from Gekiranger, maybe Geildon from Abaranger and Tottpatt from Zyuranger, depending on how generous you feel.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Bandora?
ReplyDeleteBandora was a dude?
ReplyDeleteXD!
ReplyDeleteEven if she is not a Dude, wasn't there some Commander in Ohranger who also had a Human Disguise.
XD
ReplyDeleteWasn't there that Beast Tamer in Ohranger, who had a human disguise. Sure, she was female, but still, you said there was none at all.
No mention of Cid/Barizorg from Gokaiger?
ReplyDeleteQuestion: why didn't you take into account evil male rangers? for example, characters like Burai, the Gouraigers, and most importantly, Captain Ryuuya from Timeranger (he was briefly Timered) and Mikoto Nakadai from Abaranger. Even if they were rangers, they were still villains; after all you included Rio, who is an additional hero.
ReplyDeleteDidn't count them because they were Rangers. List is long enough!
ReplyDeleteI'm covering males, not females and yes I know about Keris but she was a very minor character.
ReplyDeleteoh, I forgot; Gajah from Boukenger
ReplyDeleteHave you ever done a list of Female Rubber Suit Villains? Couldn't be nearly this long. I can count at least 8, if you count female Non-Rubber Suit villains with a monstrous transformation. Sort of the opposite of Gasha Skull.
ReplyDeleteHuh... there was also a character named long in the Five Ancestors, a book series about fighting monks similar to Gekiranger.
ReplyDeleteTayuu was able to stay out long because she didn't really use much force, so she didn't run out of water.
ReplyDeleteIn PR, it would seem that she chose the Gedou form more so than the human so that she wouldn't have to remember the past...PRS Dayu seems a lot softer than her Sentai counterpart.
Those Flashman guys look really cool in an 80's kind of way like that one guy from Dune played by Sting, the American 80's equivalent of Gackt.
