Forever Red Morphs Inurangers Style

This “What if Character Replaces Character in this Scene” meme template originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who is entertained by the idea of Inuyasha, Ryuichi Hayami, Toran, Alexander Volg Zangief, Mika Seido, Ryoma Sakamoto, Ichiro Miyata, Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa, Takeshi Sendo, Baki Hanma, and Ippo Makunouchi morphing into their Red Inuranger suits just like what Tommy Oliver, Aurico, Jason Lee Scott, Theodore Jay “TJ” Jarvis Johnson, Andros, Leo Corbett, Carter Grayson, Wesley “Wes” Collins, Alex Drake, Eric Myers, and Cole Evans did in the real-life Power Rangers Wild Force episode “Forever Red.” Sit back, relax, and soak in the amazing awesomeness of the Toonami-Era Red Inurangers morphing into their respective Inuranger suits.

I will have to reiterate that I included Alex Drake, despite him not being present in “Forever Red”, because this would be beneficial for Takeshi Sendo to partake in the Inurangers version of this episode as the Red Shadow Time Force Ranger. It makes sense because Alex covertly sent the Time Shadow for the main Time Force rangers to help them out in battle when he could have also worked overtly but in a different Red Time Force Ranger suit style. Furthermore, as Rocky DeSantos was supposed to be in “Forever Red”, there are at least still parts of his lancer personality inhabited by Takeshi as a counterbalance to Alex’s more abrasively domineering one. Thus, Takeshi as the Red Shadow Time Force Ranger is the best of both worlds, i.e., Rocky’s impulsive lancer with a heart of gold and Alex’s abrasive by-the-book command, and serves as a great strength to increase the overall Toonami-Era Red Inurangers team to eleven Red Rangers.

The morphing sequence featured here will diverge from the real-life “Forever Red” morph. First, Aurico the Red Alien Ranger did not have a morphing sequence compared to his comrades, thus motivating me to let Ryuichi the Red Ronin Inuranger go after Inuyasha in this version of the “Forever Red” morphing sequence. With that said, let the Inurangers version of the “Forever Red” morphing sequence commence!

All eleven Red Inurangers are assembled on the moon after their scuffle with the Dino Machine Cogs and are in hot pursuit by Chokyukai, Suzaku, Genbu, Byakko, and Seiryu. Chokyukai and his cronies are surprised at this new development in action.

“What? Eleven Red Rangers?” Chokyukai gasped.

The eleven Red Inurangers prepare themselves for battle.

“Well, what are we waiting for?” Toran asks.

“Let’s do it, guys!” Inuyasha commands.

Inuyasha activates his Inu Morpher and bellows, “It’s morphin’ time!”

Lightning flashes with Inuyasha’s command, “Tyrannosaurus!”

Inuyasha is now morphed into his Red Ranger suit with his helmet akin to a Tyrannosaurus Rex and white diamonds on his chest, “Mighty Morphin’ Inurangers!”

Next is Ryuichi activating his Ronin Morpher, “It’s morphin’ time! Red Ronin Inuranger Power!”

Ryuichi is now morphed into his Red Ranger suit akin to an otherworldly ninja, “Red Ronin Inuranger! Kyah!”

Third is Toran, “It’s morphin’ time!”

Toran lifts her left arm into the air, throws both arms sideways, and places her wrists together to activate her Zeo Morpher. She then transforms into her Red Ranger suit with a star on her helmet, “Red Zeo Inuranger! EYAH!”

Alexander activates his Turbo Morpher by making a movement akin to driving a car before locking the key in said Morpher, “Shift into Turbo!”

He is now in his Red Ranger suit with his helmet and entire getup akin to a car, “Red Turbo Inuranger! Hyah!”

Mika flashes her left hand forward, while keeping her right hand closed into a fist with her Space Morpher intact, “Let’s Rocket!”

She flips the control and types in the numbers 3, 3, and 5 before pressing the button to complete her transformation. She is now in her Red Ranger suit with her helmet looking akin to a rocket and the seven colors of silver, green, black, yellow, red, pink, and blue on her chest, “Red Space Inuranger!”

Ryoma activates his Galaxy Morpher by placing his right hand in a closed fist to the left and placing it back to the right to press the button, “Go Galactic!”

A flash blazes surrounded by fire and lightning before Ryoma is fully dressed in his Red Ranger suit consisting of a helmet akin to a lion and his vest being white with black zigzags, “Galaxy Red Inuranger!”

Ichiro activates his Lightspeed Rescue Morpher by moving his fists to the front and opening the switch, “Lightspeed Rescue!”

After he opens the switch, Ichiro moves his arms forward, is engulfed by a red and white shield, is covered by it to form his suit, and dons his Red Ranger suit with two long triangles on his shoulders, two long diamonds on his flanks, and his helmet forming a white cross with roundish visor in the center, “Red Lightspeed Inuranger! Hyah!”

Kiibo activates his Chrono Morpher by extending his arms with his closed fists to the side, crossing them over, moving his right hand close to the left side of his face, and pressing the button, “Time for Time Force!”

Once the button is pressed, a DNA strand flies around him, and is now in his Red Ranger suit with a red arrow on his visor, his chest area surrounded by white, and wearing bright silver armbands, “Red Time Force Inuranger! YAH!”

Takeshi also activates his Chrono Morpher by doing the same thing Kiibo did earlier, “Time for Time Force!”

The same procedure happens. However, Takeshi’s Red Ranger suit is slightly different from Kiibo’s. While Kiibo’s Red Ranger suit is white in the chest and neck areas and is bright red, Takeshi’s suit has a slightly jagged arrow on his visor and his chest area, while being surrounded by a grey design and a slightly darker shade of red, with darker silver armbands, “Red Shadow Time Force Inuranger! YAH!”

Baki activates his Quantum Morpher by placing his right wrist near to his mouth with the command, “Quantum Power!”

His right hand is enveloped in a red glove, as he holds it up high. A ray of yellow light and energy flashes around him. Baki’s transformation is complete. His Red Ranger suit is almost akin to Takeshi’s and Kiibo’s Time Force suits. However, the red arrows on his visor and chest area are more jagged and are surrounded by a jet black design, while also donning black armbands, “Quantum Inuranger! HAH!”

Finally, Ippo activates his Growl Morpher Phone by flipping it open from his left hand, putting it close to his right ear while pressing the button, and putting the phone to his left ear, as he extends his right hand, “Wild Access! Yah!”

Ippo then strikes a pose of a lion ready for pouncing. A lion’s roar is heard, as his helmet with lion’s fangs on his visor envelops his head. His Red Ranger suit also has the golden emblem of the lion on his right chest area, “Red Wild Force Inuranger!”

With all eleven Red Inurangers morphed into their respective Red Ranger suits, Inuyasha orders his troops, “All right, guys! Let’s do this!”

Chokyukai exclaims in fury, as Suzaku, Genbu, Byakko, and Seiryu stand in astonishment at what they have just witnessed.

Ryuichi, Ichiro, Baki, Toran, Ippo, Inuyasha, Mika, Takeshi, Kiibo, Alexander, and Ryoma transition from their fighting poses to extending their arms up in the air. Once all eleven Red Inurangers do this, an explosion of red smoke and fire fills the air. The eleven Red Inurangers from the Toonami era are victorious heroism personified, as they are prepared to take down the Demon Beast Empire.

I hope you all enjoyed the Inurangers version of “Forever Red’s” iconic team morphing scene. I shall see you in the next submission, where I will cover “Forever Red’s” epilogue also in Inurangers style. Take care, stay safe, and may the power protect you, everybody.
