Did anybody aside from TVN sub the new Garo?

You can watch the google translate version on youtube.

>>23790123
fight for just ice

Anyone still got Battle Hawk or Azteckaiser? For Battle Hawk there used to be an archive link and for both shows some guy posted a Mega link years ago, but but no longer work.

>>23789512 (OP)
Speaking of Spectreman, it looks like the English dub is pretty readily available, but was it never fully subbed?

>>23793052
Except for these 2 episodes.

Face of a man who spent decades fighting to save humanity and ended up losing everything at the end. This summed up the current state of the franchise sadly.
>>23794817
Around the runtime of a movie, so yeah this could have been one movie instead.

They should just put Garo to bed at this point. They clearly don't have the budget or story ideas to keep it going. As far as I'm concerned it should have ended with the movie with all three Saejima men.

>>23795091
>>23795118
I like Ryuga but yeah, at this point they're running out of ideas.
It's not even because of his universe, I don't know if they're doing a Raiga sequel series would work.

>>23795374
Raiga got Mayuri pregnant right? Just do Saegima Gen 4 at this point

I was hoping they at least had the budget for the final fight, but well, the cursed armor just appeared and gone like that, Garzas is a glorified dark knight with some sand magic trick, and Garo didn't even get a new form to defeat him.
Honestly I have no idea what they are even trying to do with this franchise at this point.

Seeing Garo reach this state is a little depressing, but I'm also not surprised given the constant steady decline of each series. Shouldn't they start with a new series at this point? Garo should've been a one and done, with Makai Senki being a pleasant surprise. Divine Flame was more than what we could've asked for, and there were some parts of Vanishing Line that were awesome, even if the story and main antagonists were a nothing burger at the beginning, middle and end.

>>23795612
I'm still disappointed we never got a Vanishing Line movie.

>>23795380
I feel Raiga having a son made a closure for the character, that's why Ryuga stay single.

>>23795638
Mappa went mainstream, director also left.

>>23795091
so how does this work? is he gunna stay virgin for 500 years until Rian is old dragon hag?

>>23796065
Makai knights are still normal human in term of lifespan anon, he will be fucking dust by then.
Either they just bullshit out some excuse for Rian to get out and have a uber Garo heir with dragon blood, or Ryuga get a new wife to continue the Garo bloodline, or someone will have to inherit that armor after he kicked the bucket as virgin.

>>23796070
Just need Elimina to breed with Ryuga for like 5 generations so Rian can /ss/ their descendant

>>23796114
Would be hilarious if the Jinga story connected to the Ryuga verse and the reason why there was no Garo user in that timeline because Ryuga dead as a virgin without heir.

At least Lector can give Ryuga free handjobs since Rian fixed his hand.....

>>23796120
It was implied Jinga's brother was supposed to be that universe's Garo until he became a Horror.

Two characters revealed for the upcoming Keroro movie, Aruru and Deruru, and their designs are clearly references to Grounzel and Skyzel from Kyodain.

>>23795374
I don't think they actually ran out of ideas. It is more like they keep introducing new ideas that don't actually work and slowly diminishing the magic the original series has - Which is somewhat a flection of how a Makai Knight loses his rationality and grace the longer he wears the armor. This franchise is turning into a lost soul beast, all muscles and no brain.

>>23797356
They should die just like the originals, too.

Mach Baron is now subbed up to episode 12!
https://archive.org/details/machbaronsub

& the subber just told me they've finished timing episodes 13-20 & have just started working on subbing 13 proper, finally breaking their streak of only ever doing half of shows!

I watched the first episode of Akumaizer 3 a couple days ago. It's probably the oldest "hero" tokusatsu I've ever watched. I was surprised at how much they crammed into that single episode so they could establish the trio and the supporting cast as quickly as possible. I feel like if they were to remake or reboot it today, it would probably be episode 4 or 5 before all three protagonists formally teamed up, especially when the story is already so focused on Xavitan.

>>23797837
I need to get back into that. What I've watched of it was pretty fun.

>>23797368
Maybe not entirely ran out of ideas but it's getting boring that almost every seasons/movies having Makai Knights/Priests going rogue.

I just realized that Dr. Gori is just Dr. Gorilla. (gorira).

I had a tough time looking for their faces to change
I'm used to just sorta expecting a vague flap at most so actual facial dynamics took getting used to
also a mask of Zabitan (along with a fuckton of other showa crap) shows up in the Tobe Hooper version of Invaders From Mars

I've been reading through this manga and they keep bringing up this Southern Krauzer series where it's killing me that while some of the other homages are really on the nose I have not the slightest inkling of an idea what this one might be referencing.
>its purpose in the narrative is a "bad toku"
>aired some time in the 80s, implied to be a Metal Heroes-esque show (a scrapped character design was refined and used in the in-universe Janperson proxy)
>MC's dumb buckethead made it initially flop
>the writing itself was also not very good, it had rewrites before the series even started airing
>had a retool where they rework the setting to a samurai focus, the main villain is defeated in an instant and replaced, the horse just stops appearing altogether
>was such a flop it only was featured in Televi-kun a single time
This imagined toku keeps showing up since it's a major character's favorite but I don't know if it's actually based on anything specific or the idea of it being intended as a "really bad show" may have incentivized the author to make something up that wouldn't be perceived as taking jabs at a specific series. It's killing me not to know for certain.
I've seen some whispers about it being Jiraiya because the MC looks like Baron Owl but it seems like Jiraiya is looked on fondly.

It's kind of weird because Xavitan and Evil's faces are so abstract. The SIC/modernized designs they used in Fourze are a little better at showing those details.

>>23800608
Could be a general combination of things related to the genre that were somewhat infamous at the time, I know Denjin Zaborger went through like 3 to 4 retools throughout the show but that was the 70s. The only metal hero show that I kinda recall having quite a few changes was spielban like the side-cast and their little hideout vanishing completely at one point. And yeah he does look like baron owl but he was pretty cool

I know it's an April Fools prank, but I genuinely wish this was real, I miss the old AHK so much.

>>23802272
who?

>>23803721
Dogengers villian.

>>23795612
Hell Yami was their attempt to expand and do Garo without Kouga, and Gold Storm was their attempt to make Ryuga more in line to traditional Garo after Yami being radically different. And Gold Storm being a success (likely because of Jinga) caused them to keep continuing on and on.

>>23796120
>>23796195
Wait the Jinga series is another universe as opposed to the far future of Ryugaverse? Frankly they need to tie up that one with Ryuga facing Jinga to close their story altogether.

I'm still laughing at the banner
>tokusatsu
>but has voltes v
yeah I know it has anime episodes but still

>>23804283
They kept it as vague as possible but Jinga mentioned Ryuga as someone he fought a long time ago, but at the same time it's hard to take at face value that the story takes place in some far future Ryugaverse when the setting is still that of a modern town.

>>23804835
damn, they really can't display Sentai on the banner huh

Is it normal for Ultraman to just randomly have important story content in the compilation program which then promptly disappears from the face of the Earth forever? That kinda puts me off

>>23805734
Shouldn't have sold their ass to the great Israel

can anyone seed Moero!! Robocon or have the episodes.

>>23805896
>randomly have important story content in the compilation progra
Can you give an example? Most Ultra shows are MOTW with only the slightest hint of an overarching story.

>>23806406
I think that anon talking about one of those Retsuden (Anthology) shows.
The newest one (New Generation Stars) just had an episode yesterday that basically a continuation of Omega finale despite most of the episode is a clip show.

>>23807605
Dat all caps filename.

>>23808093
It's not even funny how much better this suit is compared to Gavan Infinity from overall design to construction.

>>23808140
(You)

>>23807605
fuck, I wish he was getting a full series

>>23807605
>>23808093
its funny how ever since sentai died, all these other toku have been crawling out of the woodworks
