More on Gokaiger as past Sentai


These photographs of a book were found online by Dukemon22. Someone in Japan took the pictures and posted them on a board. I do not have this book nor did I provide the pictures.

'Goranger,' JAKQ, 'Bioman' and Changeman

'Battle Fever J,' 'Denjiman,' Flashman, and Maskman

'Dynaman,' Fiveman and Megaranger

'Sun Vulcan,' 'Goggle V,' 'Liveman,' and 'Turboranger'

'Jetman,' 'Zyuranger,' 'Gingaman' and 'GoGoV'

'Dairanger' and 'Kakuranger'

Ohranger, Carranger, 'Timeranger'

'Hurricanger,' Abaranger, Boukenger and 'Gekiranger'

'Timeranger' (again), 'Gaoranger', Dekaranger and 'Magiranger'

'Go-Onger', Shinkenger and Gosegier

I can't stop thinking about this. There is 26 gender changes. Goukai Green sacrifices his color 17 times--15 for Black, one for Violet and once for 'Crimson'. Goukai Pink sacrifices her color of pink six times---thrice (thanks Conan) for White, twice for Black, and once for 'Navy.' Goukai Yellow sacrifices her color three times--twice for White and once for Orange. Goukai Blue changes shade four times.

There are 21 teams that were changed, 2 teams with three members completely different costumes (Liveman and Hurricanger), 17 teams with only one member changed and 2 teams with two members changed. 13 teams left unchanged. I think they changed the skirts (removing or adding) to give it a little flair, to differentiate from the other seasons. This series is different enough as it is the first one to ever do this in Sentai at least, but for some of the footage not to be mistaken as the sentai it is meant to represent in many years in the future. To give it, its own 'pirated' style. I love the idea. I hope, wish and pray we see these changes in some form of merchandise, if not in toys, at least in Cards, T-shirts, posters, key chains, candy toy, chibi toys or something.
