Because I'm a nerd: what if Tommy Kinard was apart of operation Lightspeed Rescue?

[yelldeadcellvrremix]

OKAY. FROM THE START.

Netflix is gonna anounce more DMC anime news soon. I've been skeptical about who they'll get for Vergil, but since the announcements will be in 6 days...

If this poll is still active even after they announce the voice cast BRING IT TO MY INBOX WHERE I WILL PROMPTLY IGNORE YOUR COMPLAINTS

My 5 Top Power Rangers OTP's ✨

(even though no one asked)

1.) Billy X Adam

They maybe a rare pair but they're so soft for each other 🥹 Billy (imo) has always had a soft spot for Adam. I've written a lot of fanfics about them and have SO MANY AU's and headcannons for them and I'm ALWAYS happy to talk about them 💙🖤

2.) Wes x Eric

So many emotions about these two, SO MUCH ANGST 🥹 I imagine after Jen goes back to the future Wes and Eric get close and Eric being himself always having feelings for Wes. I really need to finish the fic i was working on them confessing. I DEFINITELY have a thing for Red X 6th Rangers 🫣

3.) Shane x Andros

GOD THE WAY THEY'RE SO IN LOVE?? 🥹🥹 The comic gave is REAL Zhane/Andros we needed. The way they were meant for each other?? AAAAAA Also Andros my blurbo Romantic Ace-Gay king just like ME!!

4.) Carter x Ryan

More recent top fav, the way Carter has just Golden Retriever boyfriend energy?? And the way he threw himself all to save Ryan with no regard to his own safety?? I feel like Ryan caught feelings for Carter VERY FAST but was pretty closest about how he felt until after Lightspeed Rescue. Carter is such a patient and caring boyfriend too 🥹🥹

(really need to finish that fic too..)

5.) Kimberly x Trini

I feel like after they left being rangers they totally got together. They're such a cute pair 🥹 their chemistry is WILD. Best girlfriends and the really lesbian representation we NEED!!

I love ALOT of pairings in Power Rangers I even love Rocky x Adam it's literally SO CUTE!! but these OTP's have a special place in my heart 🥹 I need to finish writing my fics for a lot of them 💀

'BEATEN AND BROKEN'

gif belongs to me

He always tried to appear unharmed when he entered the house. But his eyes and the slight twitch of his brow revealed how much his body ached with each step he took. You could never sleep when he never returned home, knowing he was out there in the city - likely injured.

When he did finally return home, you had the first aid kit that was bigger than the average households, but you wanted to be prepared for anything. And when he returned home, his hand on his side, you were by his side immediately, guiding him to the sofa.

Carter sighed as he took of his shirt, wincing and you stepped in to help him.

His eyes were on the floor as you dabbed the solution against his cuts, missing the way your eyes teared up at the sight of the bruises littering his side. He knew you wanted answers, so he explained what happened during their latest showdown with Vypra and how the team had lost the fight that night.

You blinked them away, turning to fetch a bandage from the kit, wrapping it around his waist. Once you were satisfied that he was going to be alright, you packed everything away, and took the bag to the cupboard in the hallway, letting a few tears fall.

You went to the bathroom, closing the door quietly, before sitting on the edge of the bathtub, covering your mouth as you let more tears fall.

You hadn't realized how much time had passed until Carter knocked on the door. "Everything alright in there?"

You wiped your cheeks, "Y-Yeah, I'll be out in a minute."

Carter's eyebrows furrowed when he heard the tremble in your voice, turning the handle, entering when it was unlocked. You turned, drying your tears on a towel.

"Y/N..." His concerned eyes met your teary ones.

He reached out to rbing you to his chest, but you moved away, shaking your head. "You should watch what you're doing -"

"I can hug my girlfriend." Carter brought you into a warm embrace, kissing your head. He noticed the way your hands hesitantly rested on his back and knew why you had hidden away. "I'm fine."

"I counted twenty six bruises, and at least five cuts. You are not fine."

Carter sighed, pressing his lips against your temple.

"One day I won't be enough..." You began, making him pull away to meet your gaze. "One day I'm afraid that you won't come back at all."

"I'll always come back." Carter placed his hands on your arms. "I promise."

You stepped away, "Don't make promises you can't keep, Carter." You walked away, heading upstairs and Carter sighed as he watched you go.

He steered clear for twenty minutes before coming upstairs, getting changed into his pyjamas, looking at you over his shoulder as he sat on the bed. You laid with your back turned to him, not sparing him a glance.

"You're right. I can't promise that I will always come back because each threat is different - stronger even. But I'll always fight to return home to you." As he spoke, he laid down behind you, placing a hand on your arm. "I love you." He kissed your shoulder and you closed your eyes, holding back fresh tears.

You turned around to meet his gaze, "I love you too."

Carter placed a hand on your cheek, kissing you tenderly. He wrapped his arms around you when you both pulled away, and you rested your head on his chest gently.

You were always concerned for his wellbeing during his day job as a fireman, but when he told you he had joined the Rangers, you were far from thrilled - aware the danger he would be facing was different. The mosters he was facing were reported on the news, and you feared that one day Vypra would succeed and you would be waiting for a man who would never return home.

But you knew that no matter what happened, Carter would go through hell if it meant seeing you again.

Imagine Olympius taking note of your flirting with the male Rangers before the Red Ranger, concerned for your safety, asks you to retreat. 

You didn’t seem to be tied down to anyone, if your casual teasing was anything to go by. Perhaps you were dating all of them. Olympius wanted to learn more.

After capturing everyone besides Carter, the prince decided to use their forms not just to infiltrate the Aquabase, but study you.

But who to impersonate first? It was a tough call. He’d definitely try both the Green and Blue Ranger. If you became his consort, he’d make love to you in his current, princely form. But Prince Olympius would gladly use his defeated enemies’ appearances to spice things up. If you wished. 

Blue, he decided, impressing his underlings as the Star Power cycled through transformations. You did chat up the Blue Ranger first. So Olympius would try to hook up with you as Chad first. He was definitely going to try Joel afterwards, though. Maybe you’d ask him to leave the hat on.

Final Phase by Carnationcreation (read here!!!)

💜“Nova Phillips never expected to be a hero. Her work was her life and she was happy being behind the scenes working towards a greater good. She also never expected a lover that she thought had died in childhood to come back, or how much trouble it would cause her and her best friend.

Nova's in the final phase of her time at Lightspeed, whether she wants to admit it or not.”💜

Starting Line by Pezzbosch (Read here!!!)

��� “Consumed by the grief of losing her brother at a young age, Skye Mitchell found herself standing behind the starting line years later. With the sudden upbringing of evil unleashed into the world, Skye's life is flipped upside down when a face from the past is revealed to be consumed by the lurking dangers of Mariner Bay. Pushing herself away from her closed-off emotions, she begins to open herself up to the reality of the world and the love that is creeping into her life.” ✨

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. We have got to do something about these funky morphing outfits. We are a disgrace to superheroes. Can you imagine us ever being in a comic book alongside Spider-Man? We’d look like the Clampetts.

Ryan probably doesn’t understand much about being an adult outside of being a power ranger, like does he even know that the mitochondria is the power house of the cell?

I am considering doing a power rangers and Danny phantom cross over au and don’t know which of the following would be better

Anton and Vlad being business partners for something and Trent and Dani having a conversation about the thing their dads want them to be

Lightspeed Rescue rangers working with the guys in white to catch Danny

Mystic force trying to fix the ghost problem in amity park once and for all and getting told off by each member of team phantom about staying in their own lane with magical nonsense

Dani running into operation overdrive multiple times on her travels and becoming an informant for what the villains are up to due to her own evil up bringing

Wild force encountering Wolf and fighting off Walker and his goons to try and help him

The silver guardians setting up a division in Amity park and Wes trying to convince Wes that phantom and Fenton are the same person only to be laughed off but somehow convince Eric in the process

Dani meets Lauren while she’s in hiding training to use the sealing symbol and is her sparing buddy for a while

Jazz being a therapist to the Bradley brothers and realizing they are power rangers pretty quickly

Do you ever think about the fact that people in the power rangers world know damn well the US government opened a gate to hell and then recruited five of the most queer coded character in the show to fight demons. Like imagine watching the news one day and it’s the damn president telling everyone that the navy screwed up and now they are fighting demons over who has the rights to a piece of land (that the demons had first and just wanted their home back). The demons don’t even want the world they just their piece of land back. Like imagine knowing tax dollars were spent on putting people in magic tights and fighting the hordes of hell over who has the rights to San Francisco. Also the demons stole a kid and raised it into the worse case of an identity crisis ever and the military is just like, yes this is the one we want to have the most dangerous weapons when he finally changes sides back to humanity.

@bundibird if you’re wondering what watching the actual kids show the power ranger is like this is the plot of season 8

[vergilberg]

Honestly if someone told me there was an evil ranger named Virgel I would laugh and ask if it’s the same guy who a. plays Eric Myers and B. if he’s voiced by the guy who voices Vergil from DMC becahse those two things are correlated in only 1 way

OKOKOKOKOKOK

FIRST: I KNOW THAT UR POINTING THAT OUT BC YKNOW. ERIC MYERS = DAN SOUTHWORTH = VERGIL. BUT I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO MILDLY SCREAM ABT POWER RANGERS AND DMC FOR A LITTLE BC THE FUCKING CONNECTION BETWEEN THESE TWO THINGS MAKES ME SCREAM

SECOND: Virgil being the name of the Red Psycho Ranger is a thing they brought up in the comics, specifically uhhhh Power Rangers: The Psycho Path which got published in ~2019-ish, which i will get to IN A MOMENT I PROMISE EVERYTHING I AM GONNA SAY IS GONNA BE RELEVANT.

now THIRD: everyone and their mom is p much aware of the fact that Dan Southworth = Eric Myers = Vergil Devil May Cry, and they are also aware of the fact that a lot of Power Rangers actors are VAs for DMC characters, which i find fucking HILARIOUS bc DMC and Power Rangers, if you really think about it, are only a few steps away from becoming each other. Power Rangers is campy and cheesy and has Cartoon Violence(TM) and even Lightspeed Rescue had demons in it and a whole plot about siblings being separated and then reunited due to the involvement of said demons. Meanwhile DMC is a campy fun romp also featuring demons, except is significantly more violent and hurts my feelings A LOT MORE.

but. ANYWAYS, as i was saying, a lot of ppl are aware of there being Power Rangers actors in DMC but i feel like not a lot of ppl.,,. realize that theres at least.... 6 people from Power Rangers who are in DMC????? or at least had been involved with DMC??????? I PROMISE THIS WILL MAKE SENSE WHY IM BRINGING THIS UP BUT LIKE

anyways im just saying. DMC5 came out March 8th 2019, Power Rangers: The Psycho Path came out ..... i wanna say October 2019, idr the exact day.

Is it possibly a coincidence that Psycho Red decided to take on the name Virgil? PROBABLY - especially bc the reasoning behind it is completely different from any sorta Devil May Cry-y reason, but like......... also................ itd be so sosososoosoooooo funny if it wasnt a coincidence. like CAN YOU IMAGINE ASDJKADSH im literally just sitting here like this rn thinking abt it

ok thats all i wanted to say sorry for the super long rant and answer lol i just think this stuff is funny as hell

Costume Ideas for Halloween 2018: Super Sentai

We did Power Rangers, now it is time to focus on the eastern progenitor of that franchise to seek ideas for Halloween costumes.

Yakuu Sentai V-Leaguer  (MLB Team edition)

October isn’t just a time for tricks and treats, but it also signifies the end of baseball season here in the USA with the World Series games airing throughout the week leading to Halloween and sometimes goes until November. So my first choice for a costume idea goes out to you diehard sports fans.

In the 1980s, when Kagaku Sentai Dynaman was being planned out, it was originally going for a baseball theme and went by the name Yakuu Sentai V-Leaguer. Ultimately, this idea was scrapped by Toei as marketing dudes thought that totally gnarly and rad 1980s kids would think baseball was a lame concept and they needed something “cooler”. Remnants of this idea, such as the Dynaman having their helmets sculpted to look like they have baseball caps in them, are seen in the suit designs and the Dyna Rod sidearm looks somewhat like a baseball bat.

For this idea, there are many avenues to choose from. You can either do a full Dynaman suit with patches you bought online of your favorite team and emblems painted on the helmet, go for a budget “casual” approach and wear a team shirt, custom Dynaman helmet and baseball uniform pants and cleats. Or you can do a full custom V-Leaguer approach, with the team’s name proudly on your chest, adorned in the team’s colors and the number of one of your favorite players on the back (or make your own number with your name on it)! 

I think the most amusing one would be for Texas baseball fans, as they would have literal Texas Rangers cheering on their team! XD Also, for more amusement if you are at a game, hold up a sign while in costume that says #DigitalWatches, fans will get the joke.

The Original Battle Fever J

This concept art drawn by Shuuhou Itahashi and Yuuji Kaida, was created to pitch the concept of Battle Fever to Marvel Comics. The two emulated the art style of John Byrne’s era of X-Men comics, and it shows despite being great Bronze Age-style designs. These feel more in line with America’s superheroes than Super Sentai and thus changes were made along the way to make the look more appealing to a Japanese audience.

Some of these even look a little familiar to those of Marvel Fandom, Battle Kenya is channeling a bit of Black Panther, Miss America’s leotard is modeled after Captain America’s costume and Battle Japan has a bit of X-Men’s Sunfire in his look.

Now sadly, this is the only image of the original concept on the web right now, so improvisation is needed a bit when going into the costume design. But that actually works to your advantage, with only a base template, you are free to tweak the look however you want!  All you really need to keep in are the colors of the flags somewhere to keep the nationality theme. I imagine original Battle Kenya and Miss America will be the most popular of the bunch based on how popular their inspirations are thanks to the MCU.

Battle Cossack would have to be updated, since one, the Soviet Union no longer exists and thus dates it quite a bit and two, fur underpants mixed with spandex are a really weird combination (and probably very itchy). 

Maskman (Orignal Fiveman Prototype Concept Designs)

Maskman was a game changer in terms of helmet and costume design as well as venturing outside the storytelling realm of sci-fi and incorporating new mystical ideas into its elements, heralding a sneak peek at what Super Sentai would be in the coming decades. But for a brief period, Maskman was on the verge of being a throwback in design when it was known conceptually as Fiveman, which of course became the name of another Sentai team.

The original suit designs incorporated what came before, most notably Battle Fever J.  X1 Mask, the one-off sixth member of Maskman, is the only “living” remnant of what could have been.

You will need LED lights and circuitboards, cosplay costume material, a custom stencil for creating the black “5″ chest emblem out of the fabric and if you can, find 3D modeling software for aiding in creating the helmets. The female Ranger helmets have a bit of sculpted helmet “hair” kind of like AkibaYellow and Blue, though you can skip that part if you don’t want 100% accuracy to save time. You will also need material to create the costume belts and pouches.

Fake KyoryuRed

One of the pitfalls of being a Super Sentai fan is that a few members of the fandom are quick to gossip and sometimes resort to elaborate pranks to get attention, like most fandoms. One cruel tactic that was put up with is the fake designs of an upcoming Red Ranger. This has recently died down thanks to stronger connections to official sources, but still is a problem that persists as even Kyuranger got the Fake Red treatment last year. In 2013, a rumor spread that this image above was the Red Ranger of the then trademarked Kyoryuger. 

Despite being immediately debunked as fake, it isn’t a bad design, harkening back to Zyuranger with the dino themed helmets that in clearer images had a jagged “teeth” like pattern on the red parts sculpted above the mouthpiece. It also had Dekaranger-like suit patterns with the represented dino covering a portion of the bodysuit in black silhouette with white outlines, “fossil teeth” shoulder pads and a metallic segmented belt with a gun holster and sword holster. 

Commander Hilltop’s “Robocop” crazy outfit

In Episode 31 of LupPat, a Gangler tries to negotiate a plea deal with the police. In a comical attempt of Good Cop, Bad Cop the Patrangers make their boss wear....whatever this is, to make the Gangler uncomfortable (and reference Robocop). It is really bizarre and doesn’t work.

What you will need: a soup/spaghetti pot on your head, metal bowls on your shoulders, a black body suit, oven mitts, 2 grill spatulas, a toy gun, white and orange rain boots, large forks, a pot lid, grill grates or small baking cooling racks and a metal cookie sheet on your back. In other words, raid your kitchen for parts!

Devil Gun from JAKQ Dengekitai

A crook made out of guns, self explanatory. His head is a gun, his chest has 3 cannons, his arms have cannons and more guns are in his fingers, he is a gunstavaganza! You will need a lot of gunmetal gray paint and a lot of patience. If you examine closely, you can see where the eye holes are for the costume. 

Ways to make it really impressive is to replicate the firing effects for the head gun with liquid fog juice, lights and sound effects. Just be careful though, in these troubling times we live in, seeing and hearing guns can make people jittery.

Zeek Jeanne from the GoGo V movie

In an alternate universe, when GoGoV was adapted into Lightspeed Rescue, I like to believe Ms. Angela Fairweather got into the fight wearing this suit instead of PLEX creating a new Ranger from scratch. (*nudges Boom! Studios*) Though the Titanium Ranger is awesome, so it balances out.

Demon Hunter Zeek bestowed his powers to GoGoV ally Kyoko Hase to become Zeek Jeanne before she ultimately lost them to give GoGoV the power to destroy the movie’s villain. One thing I never understood is why the protective face visor just vanished when the suit equipped onto a female hero.

So you have options of face visor on or face visor off. Unlike most Ranger cosplays, your field of vision will be a little better than wearing a Ranger helmet given the large face visor if you do some minor alterations.

GekiBlack

(an unnamed Livedoor artist’s photoshop render of “Super GekiBlack”)

Rio, the main baddie of Gekiranger, eventually learned he was being manipulated by Long and allied with the GekiRangers. Jan dubbed him “GekiBlack” and his partner Mele as “GekiGreen” if they became friends later on. Sadly, it was not meant to be as Long turned into his dragon form and made bite-sized snacks out of both Rio and Mele.

Many fans often wonder what would have happened if Rio had lived and instead of reusing old monster suits, PLEX and Rainbow Zoukei crafted a brand new Gekiranger outfit for him. Most fans know the rules of conceiving such a notion: he must be black in color with gold accents in the suit, and his helmet must be sculpted to resemble a lion’s mane or have lions in it.

What You Need: A GekiRed base template of some kind, black and gold paint and costume cloth, Gekiranger symbol, concept sketches to plan out an idea of what to tweak. Rio’s Kaijin form can also be used as a template. The most difficult part would be choosing a morpher, either make a custom one or make a stylized version of the GekiChangers. For the Super Version, just emulate the base Super Gekirangers but with black and gold added to the white in the bodysuit or just do the ‘shop image above. 

If you have a special someone who wants to Ranger up too, you can be nice and make him/her a GekiGreen outfit and celebrate Halloween as two fated lovers!

'SECRET IDENTITY'

gif belongs to me

The last thing Chad expected that afternoon was to be ambushed. The sun was shining and he was lying on the grass soaking it in while you quietly sang a song you had in your head all morning.

"Okay." You spoke up once you had completed the crown and Chad leaned on his elbows, looking over at you to find you had made a flower crown, placing it on your head. "What do you think?"

It was a rare occurance for your schedules to coencide - sharing the same day off - unless it was the weekdend but even then time was short as Chad claimed he had many 'work emergencies' when in actuality he had a 'ranger' emergency.

Chad hadn't felt so relaxed in four months - since he became the Blue Ranger. You did not know this, however, you knew that the weight he was carrying on his shoulders had gotten heavier and so you planned a date in the park to help take his mind off of it. And it worked.

"You look beautiful." He smiled softly, and you returned the smile.

You leaned in to kiss him tenderly in what was meant to be a chaste kiss, feeling his hand on your cheek, another on your back, as he prolonged the kiss. You giggled against his lips when he laid down, bringing you with him.

It was then Chad heard them. Seconds before the Batlings could strike, Chad got to his feet, pulling you with him. You held onto his arm that was around your waist, moving you behind him as the Batlings formed a line.

"What are those things?"

Chad noticed your flower crown on the ground, a Batling stepping on it a moment later as it grew closer, clenching his jaw as the symbol of the peaceful bliss you had been in for two hours was destroyed. "Run."

You gasped when he ran towards the Batlings, calling his name. A Batling came running towards you and you ran off, hiding in the trees and when it couldn't find you it returned to Chad. You observed from a distance as Chad fought the foot soldiers, your eyes widening when he morphed.

While you were distracted, a Batling snuck up behind you and you threw your arms around, kicking the foot soldier as it dragged you out into the open. You thumped your fists on it's shoulders and landed on the ground. Chad destroyed the Batling before it could capture you again and you stared up at him as he demorphed, your lips parting in shock.

Chad sent you a small smile, holding a hand out to you. "Let's go." He helped you to your feet, his eyes checking you for injuries. "Are you okay?"

"I think so...You - the suit - those things -"

"I can explain everything." Chad assured you, a sigh leaving his lips. "It'll be a relief to finally be able to tell you the truth."

He took your hand and you stared up at him as he led you back to the spot you had been resting in before the attack, taking a seat next to him on the grass as he began to explain. You couldn't believe it. Your boyfriend was the Blue Ranger. You didn't know whether to be afraid or proud - perhaps you were feeling both, but all you knew in that moment was you were stunned by his revelation.

"I wanted to tell you everything as soon as it happened -"

"But you had to keep it a secret. I get it." You smiled softly and his shoulders relaxed when you placed a hand on his arm. "My boyfriend a superhero. And here I thought you couldn't beat caring about animals."

Chad chuckled, lowering his gaze to the ground as he shook his head. You placed a hand on his cheek and he met your gaze that held such fondness that it made his heart race. He closed the distance between you, his hand rising to your cheek as your lips met.

And as he laid down, his arms wrapping around you, you were back where you started before the Batlings had interupted.

Imagine learning Triskull’s name. 

You hadn’t expected Trakeena’s minion (or partner?) to introduce himself, but you were apparently attractive by Demon standards. 

“Tri-skull?” He liked the way you said his name. “But I see… onetwothreefourfive skulls. That’s way too much-” 

“If you think I have too much, maybe I can give you some head.” 

You smiled. “Cool, I can hold onto your horns, or fleshlights, for leverage.”

 “‘Fleshlights’?”
