  3. re: GreenNinja's translation of names - the guys' names all have mistakes, dude. I didn't know until I took a closer look at the furigana when I was googling Jun to find info, but here are their actual names:
    Shison Jun - 志尊淳
    Hiramaki Jin - 平牧仁
    Yokohama Ryuusei - 横浜流星

    Also, Yellow/Tokkyu3 is Mio, while Green/Tokkyu4 is Hikari. :)

  5. I don't know but they kinda remind me of older SentaiSenshi: Mio looks a bit like Ian, Hikari shares similarities with Mako and Kagura looks like she already had such a 'Bouken'

  6. As expected, Blue is the eldest in the team again.

  7. Here are their personalities:
    *Tokkyu #1, the leader of the Ressha Sentai, is a force of his own, a happy soldier, and it seems that he hides a greater imagination than anyone else.
    *Tokkyu #2
 is an incredibly smart, walking dictionary – the serious soldier – and in a fight, he’ll over-think just about anything.
    *Tokkyu #3
 is a dependable woman who always comes to the aid of her friends, using a variety of martial arts to unleash her exacting techniques on the enemy.
    *Tokkyu #4, a forever unhurried soldier, even in a pinch, and that’s actually where he finds his power.
    *Tokkyu #5
 is a cute-natured girl, who turns into a variety of different characters to fight. Giving people the wrong impression of her strength is what gives her an unexpected power.

  8. Also, here's my personal opinion about them (nothing bad):
    1. Raito almost looks like Takeru from Shinkenger with that hairdo
    2. Tokatsuchi looks like someone from Kamen Rider with a different hairstyle and specs
    3. Hikari looks like a pop star
    4. Mio looks like he could play a Kamen Rider
    5. Kagura ACTUALLY looks like a schoolgirl

  9. I like them. I imagine Blue's going to be adorkable. I'm guessing a high school Sentai, judging by their clothes.

  12. Hikari played by Ryusei Yokohama its correct

  13. I feel bad for them. They gotta walk around in those outfits. Ugh. There was definitely no contemporary fashion inspiration.

  14. Light Yagami from Death Note now will be Tokkyu Red

  15. Man that cast is looking awesome. I like the green ranger the most Mio.
    I hope he is like Chiaki from Shinkenger or even Souji from Kyoryuger. What I want to say is I want him to be one those cool green rangers and not like Don from Gokiager who chickens out all the time and cant fight right, sure be funny but still be a good fighter in battle.

  16. Kagura is the new Natsuki

  17. Yasuko Kobayashi is gonna write this series. She wrote Shinkenger and Gokaiger two of the best sentai series ever made. I'm suddenly having higher hopes with this series. The costumes are slowly starting to grow on me.

  21. Hmm, looking up Riria, the actress is 30. So it seems like they are continuing the trend to have "older" actors. Which is welcome, if you ask me.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Wow, the girls are cute :)

    Okay, everybody ready?

    Fap, 2, 3, 4...

    Fap, 2, 3, 4...

    Fap, 2, 3, 4...

    Fap, 2, 3, 4...

    -sarcasm-

    Sorry, it's just some Toku fans see this as a new form of porn...

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ooops, oh wait, Riria is 20. Seems like the Wiki I used got the year wrong ( 1983 instead of 1993...so no "old woman" jokes from her. )

    ReplyDelete
  24. Wow cool cast. I hope this cast will be interesting just like the last cast. GO RESSHA!

    ReplyDelete
  25. CORRECTION:
    Tokkyu 1 - Shison Jun
    Tokkyu 2 - Hiramaki Jin
    Tokkyu 4 - Yokohama Ryuusei

  26. So, Red and Green look like Kamen Riders. Blue is Hyde and Billy fused. Yellow is Luka and Ran fused and Pink is Natsuki with other collor and no lemurian heritage.

  27. who was the writer? the one who wrote the story of GoBusters right??
    I think it will turn out pretty good

  28. the uniform design is awkward and way too simple, i hope they will have detailed equipment for making up for it
