Supersentai VS Power Rangers! FIGHT!
Supersentai is, basically, a long-running Japanese special effects series (of a genre usually called Tokusatsu). Toei has kept it airing for over 25 years. Just over a quarter century of beating a dead horse. Good LORD. About 10 (?) years back, a man named Haim Saban took the action footage from GoGo Five and filmed a bunch of American actors in the roles of the characters (outside the battles and such). This became Power Rangers.
People whine about holier-than-thou, pretentious sentai fans. Topic starts off complaining about TV-Nihon, and justifiably so:

Then that brings us to the TV-Nihon thing. If a person doesn't want to go get their subtitled sentai from them, then by God that person is a moron in their eyes and they will verbally thrash them into the ground.
#tv-nihon itself is a wank channel of epic porportions. Will have to dig through logs sometimes (where a BNF, Kingranger, wanks on about how Noir sucks compared to one of the sentai series, amongst many other topics). They also have this rule that basically says that distribution of a fansub (and not a very good one. The typos in their Kamen Rider 555 subs make me want to go through their scripts with a big red pen) OUTSIDE of the channel is WRONG and anyone caught doing so, well, the consequences are dire. Or something. But this is a F_W report, so onwards.

People like John Chrichton and Jeff are true Sentai fans. Even though JC was whining about Ninja Storm for a while there. I kind of found it annoying, how he seemed to be getting down on Abaranger as well..
Because, clearly, if you don't like ONE season in a very long series, you are not a TRUE FAN!!!!1111one! ... Oh dear, I haven't been partial to Sentai since Timeranger! I'm not a True Fan!
And now, it's off to the home of TV-Nihon, where people complain about people who complain about them!
My favorite response to Poweranimals?
KingRanger | Posted: Jul 30 2003, 05:10 PM Poweranimals. You are a known liar,site thief,a person who seems to get his jollies off causing trouble, and many other things. You are also the person that is the reason tv-nihon will not be releasing anything for a week or so maybe longer. Well you and your friends on your boards.
Now we resort to namecalling! Yay! Also, if one person not related to the fansub production process is throwing a wrench into the cogs, er, I think you better review how you do your fansubs. Seriously.
The thread devolves to even more name-calling. Also, bitching about the ethics of selling fansubs.
Ah, tokusatsu fandom, thanks for reminding me why I've never participated in your forums!
