Ehh?? Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters Returns vs. Dōbutsu Sentai Go-Busters

 You heard right, Go-Busters vs. Go-Busters. That is the new V-Cinema direct-to-video film that wil be released June 21, 2013. It seems that the Go-Busters will be fighting or alling themselves with copies from another dimension. It seems that Pink Buster is coming back.

'Dōbutsu' of Dōbutsu Sentai Go-Busters is animal-related.

RedCheetah/Sakurada Hiromu- Suzuki Katsuhiro
BlueGorilla/Iwasaki Ryuuji- Baba Ryouma
YellowRabbit/Usami Youko- Komiya Arisa
GoldBeetle/Jin Masato - Matsumoto Hiroya
Black Puma/Commander Kuroki- Sakaki Hideo
 GreenHippopotamus/Doumyouji Atsushi- Suzuki Tatsuhisa
PinkCat/Sakurada Rika- Yoshiki Risa
God- Jinnai Syo
Machine Empress Tranji-Star- Misaki Ayame

 Here is Black Puma and Stag Buster wielding a flamingo. I like that they made generally a new suit for Black Puma. But I am not crazy about the Commander's Hitler mustache.

Super Megaforce Spoilers: Stunt actors training for sword and gun use

UPDATED 3/6/13
I just did a post on stunt people and now news from the Power Rangers stunt people. This is from the suit actor and stunt Namihei Koshige, stunt and choreographer with minor details on Super Megaforce. Namihei has played mainly female characters since season 2 or so like the White Aquitar Ranger, Pink Lightspeed Ranger, Pink Time Force Ranger, Yellow Dino Ranger, Pink SPD Ranger, Pink Samurai Ranger and much more. 

.@SilurianRanger on Twitter helped translate the important parts:
"Next week stunt team will be receiving scripts. He states that the stunt team will be using the plot in these scripts to enhance fight scenes, and characterizations. There will be more rehearsals than normal to perfect this, then the cast will join to learn this new fighting style.


The more spoiler filled segment in the final paragraph comes from the segment before the URL, and the video itself. He says, "It will go from ray-guns and colored weapons to a mix of sword and gun fighting." I suspect that this is leading to Gokaiger adaptation. If you then watch the video you can see where I think this is the case. The stunt team will use props for practice next week, as in the past."


Kyouryuger Suit Actors


I love suit actors and I haven't checked out who the stunt actors are until now. It seems that Hirofumi Fukuzawa who played Red warriors for a whole decade (from Gaoranger to Gokaiger) has retired. He wasn't in Go-Busters so I thought he was on a break or something. I am glad Mizuho Nogawa is back as a female warrior. Yuuichi Hachisuka who played Yellow Buster, Gokai Yellow and Gosei Pink must be on a break as a ranger (hopefully), he is back to villain.

KYORYU RED
Yoshifumi Oshikawa has mostly played Kamen Riders but also Go-On Blue, Shinken Blue, Gosei Black, Gokai Blue and Red Buster.  Like Yasuhiro Takeuchi before him who played Gosei Red, he got to play a Red Ranger as Red Buster. Now he plays Kyoryu Red.



KYORYU BLACK
Yasuhiro Takeuchi has played a lot of different characters (different colors), he also did a little bit of the Dragonranger. He played Dragon Ranger, Ginga Green, Go Green, Go-On Green, Shinken Green, Gokai GreenOh Blue, Blue Racer, Time Blue, Gao Yellow, Hurricane Yellow, Bouken Blue, Geki Blue, and Gosei Red. He will now play Kyoryu Black.

KYORYU PINK
Mizuho Nogawa has played MagiBlue, MagiMermaid, Go-On Silver, Gosei Yellow an and Gokai Pink. She played Escape Evolve in Go-Busters. Now she plays Kyoryu Pink.

KYORYU BLUE
Masashi Takada plays Kyoryu Blue. I am not aware of anything else he has done. 

KYORYU GREEN
Kosuke Asai plays Kyoryu Green. He played Cheeda Nick and Go-Buster Ace in Go-Busters. He also played Basco's true form in Gokaiger. 





Torin: Jiro Okamoto
He played Gorisaki Banana, MagiShine, Shinken Gold, Gosei Knight, Barizorg, various big villains and various Kamen Riders (Ohja, Ryuga, Odin, Leangle, Den-O Ax Form, Black, Black RX, Shin, ZO and J. 

Chaos: Hideaki Kusaka
He has portrayed too many to mention--but to name a few, he has played Doukoku (Shinkenger), Tottobatto (Zyuranger), and Gunther (Fiveman) for the bad guys and Kabuto Raijer, Abare Black, Deka Master and more for the good guys.


 Dogold: Riichi Seike
He played Geki Violet, Go-On Black, Zuuban, Juuzo (Shinkenger) and Buredoran (Goseiger).

Canderilla: Yuichi Hachisuka
He has played Five Yellow, Mega Yellow and Bouken Yellow, Go Yellow and Ginga Yellow,Change Phoenix, Pink Flash, Pink Mask, Blue Dolphin, Pink Turbo, White Swan, Time Green, Gao White, and Gosei Pink

Luckyuro: Naoko Kamino
Yes, she is a female. She played Mega Pink, Gao White, Bouken Pink (sub), Deka Pink (sub), Gosei Pink (sub), RoboTough, Datas and Master Shafu.

Akibaranger Second Season Aesthetic changes

So Akibaranger was announced to have a second season, it will be coming in April. 
Akiba Red gets an upgrade called Akiba Red Max, which his same suit but with an Aoi-inspired upgrade--which basically looks like a woman hugging him. Akiba Yellow and Akiba Blue get new hairstyles. Even though some people don't believe the show needs a sequel, I think it is cool and I am looking forward to it!


This will be the new actress to play AkibaBlue. Most likely a new character.

KyoryuCyan!!! More Kyouryugers to come?


On the heels of news about new KyoryuGold, we get a Kyoryuger before KyoryuGold. This actor is not Japanese and the first one apparently. Robert Baldwin played Gordo in the 2005 Star God Series, Sazer X. Since he hasn't appeared in toy catalogs, I am thinking he will be a guest Ranger and makes me think we will be getting more Kyoryugers. I like the silver on his teeth and replacing the yellow. I like that his name is Cyan, as no other warrior in Super Sentai will has had the name Cyan, neither on Power Rangers while Jungle Fury's Shark Ranger is cyan.

His name is Ramirez and is a spirit who approves of the Kyouryuger using the Ankydon.
