S2 likely would start where the manga left off since the flashback to Red's first quest would be a good opening episode but how far would it go? 12 episodes at the around pace of S1 would probably get through Bad End as the best place to capstone the season but that very quickly leads into a fairly lengthy series of events that all chain into another. I suppose there could be some bonus content in between the end of the fight and before Patchwork explains the Demon Queen's nature.

>>23705630 A good intro episode would actually be the special K5 prologue chapter since the anime definitely loved doing the Sentai stuff. From there, assuming its 12 episodes, they should at least be able to get to the port and leave for the Demi Humans, and maybe cover Bad End, assuming no special stuff like an original K5 flashback episode again (Which I wouldn't be against)
>>23705695 Nah, back in...September? August? Whichever, what people thought was the final arc ended with a surprise lead in to a new arc.
>>23705708 Oh no, its better. They aren't just blatantly based off of 5 of the biggest names in Kaiju, they are called the Demon Sentai Stella Five, so they are deliberately invoking the Evil Ranger type
Anon who asked for Kaiju after Ultra Lowji got his wish,
Huh. I didn't realize Biolante was so crucial. Wouldn't have been one of my top picks in any regard. GIGAAAAAAAAAAAN!RISE!

>>23705754 >>23705772 It probably also has to do with who those 5 are and call backs to that arc. The Biollante one was the one with earth magic did the field work. A plant kaiju fits with that. The stuff for each is probably tied in to their character.

>>23705218 It makes perfect sense since the Negarangers were kaiju but I wouldnt have expected them to be references to anything like this either. Really fucking awesome.

>>23705199(OP) I'm really looking forward to next month's chapter to see how they get out of this considering all five of thr main cast are at their limits right now.
Also wondering what this means for Vidara and Domad now that their mom has some new kids.

>>23706311 >Also wondering what this means for Vidara and Domad now that their mom has some new kids. Considering how she is, I'm sure she's fairly likely to disown them, especially Vidara since she ran away. Wouldn't surprise me if she ends up killing her like she did Shau'ha for one reason or another.

>>23706368 I'm expecting something for Vidara since currently she is thoroughly unsympathetic. Even Vidan managed to get some sympathy from Azir as he died. Given the trend, they'll have to do something to introduce her reawakened past life memories.
Domad is still probably in her good graces though. He just probably is not dealing well with everything that went down since he isn't a bad guy, just on the wrong side. He definitely could get a redemption arc.

>>23705199(OP) Given the revival, I wonder if we get a Metal Hero now that we have kaiju.

>>23706414 I think that things are a bit too neat for the author to make some last minute changes like that. Something I think would be fun would be if the final chapter has a brief gag where Red does the "Sentai Handoff" to someone completely out of context at the end of the series with the isekai cast wondering how they know each other and Red saying they've never met but knows they'd have a good bond. Having someone with a more bulky and gritty Metal Heroes appearance and story setting for contrast would make for a good comedic impact.

>>23706414 >>23706421 If we get one, it'll probably be because he planned one in advance, which, I wouldn't be surprised by. Nakayoshi has been pretty good with his planning and everything thus far.
Just like Azir came back and got to be his own Rider (Still weird he isn't with the main group right now) I wouldn't be shocked if, say, Connor came back to prominence since he also got a lot of focus his arc

Its been exactly one year today since the anime premiered.
Probably one of my favorite anime last year.

>>23705754 Biollante is one of the most popular films in Japan. Japanese fans rank it as one of the best in the series. They’re totally wrong though.
>>23706311 >I'm really looking forward to next month's chapter to see how they get out of this considering all five of the main cast are at their limits right now. Surely this is the best possible time for the rest of the Kizuna Five (plus Kiyoshiro) and Shau'ha to come to the rescue, right? Between us now having confirmation that the scene at the end of the anime is canon to the manga as well, and Shau'ha (who has shown herself to be quite skilled at teleportation magic) recently being killed by the Demon Queen and thus likely going to Tougo's world, this is the perfect opportunity for that to happen and for us to get a quaint sentai vs. sentai battle (with a full roll call that Yidhra excitedly joins in on). The only potential downside would be Shau'ha stealing Yidhra's thunder by figuring out other world teleportation before her, but you could get potentially around that by having her only partially figure it out, i.e. as a one way trip to her original world with absolutely no idea of how to get back. That would also allow you to have an emotional moment with Tougo being touched that they'd go that far that for him.

>>23707695 Which is incredibly ironic because it initially flopped in Japan, which in turn caused the sequel series to cybercop (toho’s second attempt in a sentai like series) being canned AND reorganized into the metal jack anime by sunrise
>>23708275 >The only potential downside would be Shau'ha stealing Yidhra's thunder by figuring out other world teleportation before her
Yihdra already figured it out, or at least is on the track to, by using the Doppelgangers.

>>23708628 Ah, okay. I looked over that chapter when it first released a couple of months ago, but not knowing moon meant I could only glean surface level info from it, nice to hear that it's even less of a potential issue than I thought.
>The evil rangers were actually kaiju from Earth who reincarnated >Plant guy is clealry going to be Lowji's rival, so he may based on an ultra-kaiju >Mothra girl is going to die >1 or more of them will become good guys Which of these is most likely?
>>23712514 >Plant guy is clearly going to be Lowji's rival Lowji's opponent is going to be the Godzilla inspired one, considering that it's the kid he bonded with.
If we're sharing crackpot theories/concerns as to what might happen to Yidhra, here's one: What if the Demon Queen plans on trying to corrupt her with her vile mana? Vidara plotted to do a similar thing with Teltina, and it's definitely been established by this point that the Demon Queen is every bit as evil as her children, with her and Vidara seeming the most similar in character. There's also potential foreshadowing in the fact that Yidhra had very high affinity with the succubus demihuman transformation, which (obviously) just so happens to look demonic.
Does this look like a good roadmap for season 2? >Ep 13: The remainder of the Sun Forest arc >Ep 14: Flashback to Red's first day after getting isekaid >Ep 15-16: Age regression arc >Ep 17-19: Orphanage arc + Cloning Bitch >Ep 20-24: Demi-human country arc up to Bad End, ending on cliffhanger with the Shauha reveal

>>23727776 >They might omit this the same way they did the Sun Forest reveal That was mainly because there wasn't enough room for it since the Bansou Killer flashback was expanded from a couple panels to an entire episode. But even if a similar episode happens in season 2, 4 episodes should still be enough to get that far
