Sentai Daishikkaku

Remember the good old days of watching Power Rangers, where heroes transformed to save the day? Buckle up, because there's a new show shaking up that classic formula in the most unexpected way!

In this series, the Power Rangers aren't fighting for justice; they're battling monsters for the thrill of entertainment! Picture this: monsters are the victims, and the rangers are the stars of a TV show where their battles are broadcasted for all people to see. It's a twist that adds depth and intrigue, making every episode a thrilling ride.

Visually stunning with eye-catching animations and quite good soundtracks, this series pays homage to its Power ... Rangers roots while carving out its own unique path. The characters are fresh, the storylines are unpredictable, and the action is intense.

In short, this series is a wild blend of action, suspense, and unexpected twists. If you're looking for a show that flips the script on the Power Rangers concept, this is it. While it's light on comedy, the thrill of the storyline more than makes up for it.

So, get ready to experience the Power Rangers reboot you never knew you needed. It's entertainment like you've never seen before, and trust me, you won't want to miss it!

In the end this is just my opinion, it may differ from other but you can try it yourself and judge it yourself.

Go Go Loser Ranger (also known as Ranger Reject) is basically Super Sentai meets The Boys. It's very unique for its genre and the first 3 episodes have been very entertaining so far. Keep in mind I have not read the manga for this, so I have no idea what's to come.

Basically, the "monsters" started invading earth 13 years ago and the Divine Dragon Keepers need to put an end to them. Eventually, the monsters got handled and they were forced to bring out one per week so that the Dragon Keepers could defeat them in front of a large crowd. One monster (our MC) ... is sick and tired of putting up with this charade, so he decides that he will take down the Dragon Keepers from the inside. This is the premise.

I find this concept to be quite interesting as the audience has no idea what's going on, and as the monsters have had to put up with this farce for over a decade, it would make sense that some of them would be tired of it and would want to rebel against their opressors.

Characters: The cast of Go Go Loser Ranger is quite enjoyable. Seeing the perspective of the "bad guy" for once and actually rooting for the villain (MC) to win is a lot of fun, because before I watched the show, I thought the MCs would be the Dragon Keepers, however they are simply supporting characters. Additionally, Yumeko Suzukiri and Hibiki Sakurama are enjoyable characters, even though we don't know much about them yet. Their dynamics and interactions with the MC are a lot of fun, and you call already tell they are multi-layered characters.

Score: 9/10

Sound: The sound in this anime is great, From the insert songs mid fight, to the sound effects and voice acting, Go Go Loser Ranger! has really gotten this right. The VA cast is quite stacked too. Yuusuke Kobayashi is voicing Fighter D, Yuuichi Nakamura voices Red Keeper, Kensho Ono voices Yellow Keeper, and Kousuke Toriumi voices Green Keeper.

Score: 9/10

Animation: The animation on this show is very good. Yostar pictures are a studio known for doing gacha-game adaptations, so when I saw them on a big project like this one, where the manga is very beloved and well known, I was a little skeptical. However, once I saw the trailer as well as ep 1, my concerns were immedietaly lifted. The animation is fluid and crisp. Character art is great. There is actually some cgi used here and there, but it's blended very well with 2D and is barely noticeable imo.

Score: 8/10

OP and ED:

Probably the weakest (and arguably least important) part of the show. The op is performed by Tatsuya Kitani, and while it certainly isn't his best work, it's not bad by any means. The visuals are fun and the song is upbeat. I'll probably start skipping it from this point on, but it fits the vibe of the show well.

The ED is pretty catchy, but not really my type of song. The visuals on it are fully cgi and it looks a little jank at times but nothing terrible.

OP score: 7/10
ED score: 5.5/10
Overall OP and ED Score: 6/10

Overall, Go Go Loser Ranger! is a very entertaining show with a unique and fresh take on the Super Sentai genre. It's also a very easy show to recommend to others as it appeals to a wider audience and anyone can have a fun time watching it.

Sentai Daishikkaku has a nice and an intriguing idea – without monsters, heroes cannot exist. And not all actions of heroes are good ones, shining a light exposing the industry that was created benefiting from the whole ordeal between the two parties, selling that to the normal people in their world that are unaware of it.

Such a show needs a good cast of characters that can make or break the story now that they have introduced the premise. While there are few characters (Suzukiri) that was later focused on that I would consider to be kind of thoughtfully constructed, I still feel that the majority ... are weak.

As someone who didn’t grow up watching Power Rangers, but was fine watching Fuuto Tantei, I couldn’t know why the rangers and fighters in this anime seemed off-putting at first. I know they are supposed to be somewhat the bad guys here, and taking their side is not necessary, still, the show didn’t hand any reason to care about them. Maybe it’s the intended result, to just focus on Fighter D, but Fighter D is more of an idea of revenge than a fully-fledged character, and the same can be said about Suzukiri, she is just smarter than D sometimes.

In terms of plot and direction, the first episode while it made me come back to watch episode two and three, but it was lacking. The second episode contained information that I wished the first one had, maybe it would have changed how it shaped my opinion on it regarding how some monsters are immortals but what about their bosses.

When it comes to animation, again, this show seems very consistent to be right in the middle – heavy use of CGI for the monsters and fighters, which is understandable in some cases, however most of the time they are unpleasant to the eye to look at. If they can make it as smooth and good as the 3D in the ED it would be a different story, but overall, the animation is good-enough, seems like Yostar is treating this show worse than what they did in Arknights even though they used CGI there, too.

Is it worth watching? It is watchable, it has an interesting core idea, but weak presentation. I’ll keep watching until I feel I had enough.
