You're not alone. I've read that from other toku fans.

If it is like Akibaranger, I could go for "bad".

We’ll see, Fourze looked super silly and I ended up really liking it. But Gentaro was a really likeable character from the start. :smt102

Caught the first two episodes of Ultraman Ginga.

More of the same as an Ultraman show. This time... it involves the toys.

Wow early...

[url=http://www.orendsrange.com/2013/08/38th-super-sentai-rumors-animal-edition.html38TH SUPER SENTAI RUMORS: Animal Edition[/url]

It's that time of the year again as we have our first set of RUMORS for the next Super Sentai series. Again, take these rumors with a grain of salt since they are still rumors.

The next Super Sentai series will feature "animal faced" vehicles similar to the ones from Jetman, Go-Onger and recently, Go-Busters. The biggest surprise in this rumor is that the line will not include a lion mecha, a staple in most general animal themed shows.

The color Yellow return next year as a female.
