Ayame and Alex: Striker Sisters from Other Misters

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who entertains the thought of Ayame and Alex being the fiercest pair of sisters from other misters ever. There is also a bit of Inuyasha x Ayame or InuAya and Raymond x Alex or Raylex sprinkled in here, considering that I am the biggest partisan of these two OTPs for life. Sit back, relax, and soak in Ayame’s and Alex’s fierce sisterhood abundant in accurate timing, rapid physical attacks, scintillating strikes, and synergetic camaraderie. What happens when you combine one mightily determined she-wolf Yokai Kyuk Too Ki prizefighter with one enthusiastically bubbly yet amazingly athletic WOOHP agent? You get a friendship that is rich in unconditional sisterly love, mountainous encouragement of each other’s skills, unbreakable confidence, and masses upon masses of perseverance even when situations are dire. Ayame’s electrifying formidability in her punches, kicks, strikes, and acrobatic flexibility as a Kyuk Too Ki fighter is a beautiful complement to Alex’s amazing flexibility accompanied by her gorgeously lithe physique in her somersaults, axe kicks, roundhouse kicks, spinning back fists, leg wheels, and backflips, given the latter’s expertise in Jeet Kune Do, Taekwondo, Hapkido, and Baguazhang among various martial arts she has trained in. No doubt will Ayame and Alex encourage each other to reach greater heights as martial artists and as women with a whole lot to give to the world as well as constantly see the best in each other. Their physical fearlessness in martial arts is only accompanied by how wonderfully firm their epic sisterhood is. Ayame and Alex are born one year and ten months apart, given that Ayame was born on April 8, 1985, and Alex was born on February 19, 1987, if we are to compute their ages by twenty-first-century standards of when their shows first aired on television. Despite being born nearly two years apart, there are occasions where Ayame does act fiercely maternal toward Alex, and not just like the big sister figure that she usually is toward her younger sister figure. This is because of how differently they grew up. Ayame was born and raised in the Northern Wolf Yokai Warrior Tribe, started to gain an interest in hand-to-hand combat at 5, married Inuyasha when she was 9, was a mother to fourteen children from 10 to 16 and gained experience in Kyuk Too Ki, Dutch Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Western Boxing, Japanese Kickboxing, Hapkido, and Taekwondo. While Alex is an all-American WOOHP agent/adrenaline aficionado who is also married to Raymond a bodybuilder and gym instructor. Therefore, Ayame’s fierceness and Alex’s excitability make them akin to Nina and Anna Williams from Tekken but only more civil and loving. Ayame’s and Alex’s sisterhood first blossomed one snowy December 2004 in the Austrian Alps, where one of The Splendid Seven’s most epically legendary martial arts tournaments occurred. 23-year-old Sesshoumaru, 22-year-old Shuran 22-year-old Inuyasha 21-year-old Hakkaku, 21-year-old Ginta, 19-year-old Ayame, and 18-year-old Shunran were up against 45-year-old Ulrich Wernerstein and his four hulking bodybuilder goons. 17-year-old Alex and her best friends 17-year-olds Sam, Clover, and Britney were situated at the very front seat to see Ayame unleash a series of Superman punches, hammer fists, uppercuts, jabs, cross punches, overhand punches, haymaker punches, roundhouse kicks, axe kicks, shin kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, elbow slashes, and knee bombs at Ulrich and his goons. Alex was especially enthralled with Ayame when she unleashed those bone-shattering strikes against the bodybuilder goons and Ulrich himself. When The Splendid Seven emerged victorious, Alex came up to Ayame, heartily congratulated her, and shook her hand so excitedly, for she wanted to learn the moves she made. Ayame and Alex may be compared to Nina Williams and Anna Williams due to Nina being the sterner older sister to Anna’s feisty younger sister, but they are also comparable to Hokuto and Nanase from the Street Fighter franchise. This is due to their close sisterly ties, their vastly different backgrounds, fighting styles, and combat experience. Ayame is a driven, ambitious, and confident prizefighter always focusing on gold-medal standards of combat trained by the wolf Yokai warriors, Korean combatants, Thai fighters, and Western boxers plus kickboxers in Kyuk Too Ki, Muay Thai, Dutch Kickboxing, American Boxing, Japanese Kickboxing, Taekwondo, and Hapkido who never backs down against more formidable opponents. Alex is an excitable, enthusiastic, and bubbly WOOHP agent, fitness model, and fitness aficionado who has experience in American Kenpo Karate, Taekwondo, Shotokan Karate, Hapkido, Baguazhang, Jeet Kune Do, soccer, and tennis and is passionate about what she does. Ayame’s super lengthy experience as a combatant complements Alex’s physical prowess as a spy well in terms of their sisterhood. There is no doubt that Ayame and Alex enjoy sports fashion, swimming, diving, and full-contact sports, but their main passion is in full-contact martial arts where every punch, kick, and strike can create a high impact on any body part. Whether they spar in Taekwondo, Hapkido, Dutch Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Japanese Kickboxing, or American Kickboxing, both these ladies are always prepared to give each other all the hard-hitting blows at their disposal. Ayame always makes sure that Alex is aware of every punch, kick, knee strike, and elbow strike by making her dodge all of her attacks before making her deliver some hard-hitting blows to her too as well as allowing herself to go full-contact on Alex. Alex would also make sure that Ayame’s body is legitimately tough to withstand any blow by also delivering a series of brutal punches, high-flying kicks, hard knee strikes, and paralyzing elbow strikes. When Ayame gives Alex an overhand punch, Alex would retaliate with a knee strike to Ayame’s abdomen. If they are not sparring, Ayame and Alex also enjoy modeling for fitness magazines and playing beach volleyball. The unconditional love and devotion that both Ayame and Alex show to their respective husbands Inuyasha and Raymond are absolutely unparalleled. Alex would find it astounding, let alone astonishing, that Ayame always wanted to be with Inuyasha ever since…

Raymond’s Intense Training with Inuyasha

This mentor-student meme base originally belongs to KeybladeMagicDan. This is dedicated to those who fancy not only Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s super strong and excellently exceptional crossover brotherhood but also the idea of Inuyasha giving Raymond the hard and intense training in Pankration mixed with Combat Sambo, Judo, Vale Tudo, Kapu Kuialua, Ssireum, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing. Sit back, relax, and revel in Inuyasha’s uncompromisingly hard and unmercifully brutal training session that he has in store for his best friend for life/best brother from another mother Raymond. It is common knowledge that Inuyasha’s training methods in Pankration, Combat Sambo, Judo, Vale Tudo, Kapu Kuialua, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing can range from being exceedingly tough to unmercifully sadistic. This is thanks to all the hard training he endured with his surrogate grandfather/grandfather-in-law, surrogate father-in-law, and surrogate fathers, The Wolf Elder, Broly, and the wolf Yokai warriors of the North, South, East, and West, since he was 8 years old, which has seen him triumph against bigger and scarier opponents in the bloodiest way possible. In terms of moves, Inuyasha has the double axe handles, hammer fists, rear naked chokeholds, tracheal grip chokes, neck cranks, liver punches, body slams, camel clutches, ankle locks, and rabbit punches to make his opponents fall to their knees in terror. Just the mere thought of Inuyasha unleashing those moves on Ulrich Wernerstein and his bodybuilder goons is enough to make them scared to death. All of what Inuyasha has mastered in Greek and Spartan-style Pankration has made him a formidable warrior. Inuyasha unleashing relentlessly powerful moves from Ancient Greek Pankration, in which some could be still used today while others are currently lost in history, has earned him the monikers of The Nemean Lion of Mount Olympus, The Psycho Blood Bludgeoner, and The Rampaging Muscle God because of how brutally high-impact his attacks are. It is often said that, when opponents attempted to subdue Inuyasha in the arena with their chokeholds and submission holds, he sprang back roaring loudly like the Nemean Lion to deliver a series of brain-crushing punches, nerve-damaging body locks, windpipe-smashing chokes, and his signature neck crack that resounded throughout the arena. Even bigger, more muscular, and stronger opponents are not safe from Inuyasha’s attacks. The sheer fight-until-the-death mindset that Inuyasha always possessed from childhood to adulthood has always been well-established in his moves, given the many occasions that he does not surrender until his opponents are knocked down, bloodied, and cold. This is what spectators always come to see from Inuyasha’s brutality in Pankration. Raymond, being the affably charismatic bodybuilder and gym instructor that he is, has an open mind to see what Inuyasha has mastered as a Pankration warrior and which also earned him the reputation for being a brutally relentless combatant rich in magnificent muscles, super strength, bloody brutality, and formidable ferociousness. This is also given his experience of marveling at Inuyasha’s viscerally body-crushing attacks unleashed against Ulrich and his bodybuilder goons on that snowy December 2004 in the Austrian Alps. Raymond excitedly congratulated Inuyasha for his amazing yet bloody combat performance and asked if he was free to teach him some of the attacks he launched against Ulrich and his bodybuilder goons. Raymond even exposited that, as a gym instructor, he also had clients heavily involved in martial arts such as wrestlers, mixed martial artists, kickboxers, and boxers for daily fitness sessions. Inuyasha even asked Raymond if he was committed to intense sparring sessions, to which he responded with a resounding yes. From that moment on, Raymond was about to be thrown into the deep end. Inuyasha invites Raymond to his Pankration home gym which is surrounded by Ancient Greek artworks of Heracles throttling the Nemean Lion and Theseus giving the Minotaur a neck crank among other heroes who specialize in this Ancient Greek predecessor to Vale Tudo and Mixed Martial Arts combined. Raymond is in total awe of what he is seeing in front of him, as Inuyasha exposits that it is often said that Heracles and Theseus were the mythical founding fathers of Pankration, given the combination of striking and grappling attacks used. Before they can get to actual sparring, Inuyasha and Raymond engage in warmups which involve a whole bunch of weightlifting, circuit training, stretching, and pretend sparring with a dummy made of deer hide. Their workout session has all the works, with deadlifts using very heavy barbells, bench presses with 300-pound barbells, bicep curls, kettlebell lifts, extreme push-ups, abdominal crunches, chin-ups, giving the big punching bag a series of punches and kicks, and providing the huge deer-hide dummy a series of submission holds and chokeholds. That was just for the warmup. Raymond already feels quite numb from the insanely super-charged warmup exercises, but Inuyasha reminds him that this is just the tip of the iceberg because they have to suit up for real sparring. Inuyasha dons his crimson G-string made out of a lion demon’s mane, while Raymond dons his lime-green G-string, which is a skimpier version of the lime-green short shorts that he wore during his bodybuilding pose-down at the stage of the Beverly Hills gym. Both musclemen are bare-chested, barefoot, and ready to rumble. To keep their skin moisturized and dust-free, Inuyasha and Raymond also rub olive oil all over each other’s bodies. Raymond even flexes his bulging muscles for Inuyasha to let him know that he means serious business, while Inuyasha does the same to Raymond, as he also rubs olive oil all over him. They even massage each other to keep their bodies well-conditioned for the blows, strikes, grapples, and takedowns about to occur. If Raymond thought that the warmup was intense, he has not seen anything yet because Inuyasha has a full program prepared for him to make sure that he is up to the task. To see if Raymond is properly conditioned to take on as many viciously visceral strikes and grapples from Inuyasha, he asks him to make his body tense and tight….

Inuyasha and Raymond: Best Muscle Brothers Forever

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who entertains the thought of Inuyasha and Raymond being the strongest pair of brothers from other mothers ever. There is also a bit of Inuyasha x Ayame or InuAya and Raymond x Alex or Raylex sprinkled in here, considering that I am the biggest partisan of these two OTPs for life. Sit back, relax, and soak in Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s muscularly virile brand of brotherhood rich in big muscles, crushing throws, abundant respect, and super strong allegiance. Take one powerfully ferocious dog Yokai Pankratiast and one handsomely dreamy bodybuilder/gym instructor and you get a friendship that is built on interpersonal strength, brotherly love, abundant encouragement, and oodles of positive vibes brimming between these two very strong men. Inuyasha’s sheer muscular brutality in his grapples, double axe handles, chokeholds, and submission holds as a Pankration fighter is an exceptional complement to Raymond’s chiseled yet imposing muscle mass in his submission holds, takedowns, body slams, body locks, and joint locks as a bodybuilder who also has some surprising Professional Wrestling skills. Inuyasha and Raymond would challenge each other physically and mentally to the point where they grow stronger as warriors and as men. When they are not attempting to beat each other into submission, they do enjoy the finer and simpler things in life such as reveling in each other’s company. Therefore, Inuyasha always gives Raymond loads of encouragement to improve as a fighter, while Raymond always fills Inuyasha’s days with abundant positivity and smiles galore. Inuyasha and Raymond may be of the same age, given that their birth year is 1982 based on when the former’s anime was first released in 2000 and Totally Spies’s third season was released in 2004. However, Inuyasha was born on April 1, while Raymond was born on October 3. They may be six months apart, but Inuyasha acts like the formidable and encouraging big brother to Raymond’s cheery and optimistic younger brother. Furthermore, Inuyasha’s upbringing with Ayame’s grandfather and the wolf Yokai warriors ever since he was 8 years old, marriage to Ayame when he was 12, being a father to fourteen children from ages 13 to 19, and lengthy experience in Pankration, Ancient Greek Wrestling, Ancient Greek Boxing, Judo, Combat Sambo, Vale Tudo, and Kapu Kuialua make him more mature than Raymond’s relatively normal life as an ebony-haired, tan-skinned all-American bodybuilder, gym instructor, and muscle model who is also married to Alex one of WOOHP’s most energetic spies. Therefore, in video game terms, Inuyasha is the Ryu Hoshi and Kazuya Mishima to Raymond’s Ken Masters and Paul Phoenix. Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s brotherhood was firmly established one snowy December 2004 in the Austrian Alps, which was the place where one of The Splendid Seven’s most legendary martial arts tournaments occurred. 23-year-old Sesshoumaru, 22-year-old Shuran 22-year-old Inuyasha 21-year-old Hakkaku, 21-year-old Ginta, 19-year-old Ayame, and 18-year-old Shunran fought against 45-year-old Ulrich Wernerstein and his four hulking bodybuilder goons. 22-year-old Raymond, who was cured of the Bulky Bars’ life-threatening effects, witnessed how Inuyasha’s Pankration skills were put to use, when he threw rear naked chokeholds, tracheal grip chokes, Superman punches, hammer fists, sleeper holds, hip throws, and Full Nelsons at select goons and Wernerstein himself. Raymond was in awe of Inuyasha’s strength, brutality, ferociousness, and fierceness with his attacks against Ulrich’s bodybuilder goons. When the match was done and The Splendid Seven won, Raymond excitedly congratulated Inuyasha to the point where he wanted to learn all of those moves and incorporate them into his regimen as a gym instructor. Inuyasha being the Ryu and Kazuya to Raymond’s Ken and Paul has a lot to do with their personalities, fighting styles, and combat experience. Inuyasha is a hardened, determined, and brutish champion trained by Ancient Greek combatants, Hawaiian warriors, Russian wrestlers, and the wolf Yokai warriors from the North to the South in Pankration, Ancient Greek Wrestling, Ancient Greek Boxing, Kapu Kuialua, Combat Sambo, Judo, and Ssireum who consistently strengthens himself to be the best warrior he can be. Raymond is a charismatic, easy-going, and affable muscleman working as a gym instructor, professional bodybuilder, and muscle model who also has experience in Greco-Roman wrestling, submission wrestling, weightlifting, and strongman competitions and does his best to play fair. While Inuyasha’s combat experience in Pankration is lengthy, considering that he has been fighting professionally since he was 8 years old, Raymond’s is rather limited, and mostly does submission wrestling in his free time. Inuyasha’s warrior determination and Raymond’s charming affability go together in solidifying their brotherhood. Challenging each other physically is what Inuyasha and Raymond would do to their heart’s content. Whether it is weightlifting, bodybuilding, strongman competitions, or sparring in old-fashioned Ancient Greek Pankration, nothing can knock these two musclemen down from achieving higher goals as combatants and as men. Inuyasha always conditions Raymond to see if his huge muscles can withstand his punishing blows by delivering a barrage of punches to his abdomen and liver while Raymond tries not to wince by standing very still with his fists clenched and breath held for as long as possible. In turn, Raymond always checks to see if Inuyasha’s bulging muscles and brutish fighting prowess can be used as counterattacks against his submission holds. For instance, if Raymond holds Inuyasha in a bone-crushing bear hug, Inuyasha would counter Raymond’s bear hug with a head trauma-inducing double axe handle. When they are not trying to maul each other with their radical wrestling moves, they also enjoy comparing each other’s muscle size, having bodybuilding pose-downs, and posing for Men’s Health magazine. When it comes to being the bedrocks for their wives, Inuyasha and Raymond are the experts in doing so. Raymond would find it astounding that Inuyasha and Ayame got engaged, were married, and started a family while they were still very young. Inuyasha would always assure Raymond that Ayame was always the one person who consistently rooted for him even when the chips were down and is…

Sesshoumaru the Patron Shipper of InuAya

This Character Ships Couple/Pair/Duo Meme originally belongs to TitoMosquito and is dedicated to all the wonderful Inuyasha x Ayame or InuAya shippers, partisans, and loyalists of the world. This is also dedicated to those who believe that Sesshoumaru can make a great wingman for his dear younger brother Inuyasha and his equally dear younger sister-in-law Ayame. Sit back, relax, and revel in Sesshoumaru being the lord-high captain, patron saint, and all-around advocate for Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s unconditional love, boundless support, abundant encouragement, super steamy sexiness, and magnificently mighty strength. The Wolf Elder, may have raised both his granddaughter, Ayame, to be a valiant wolf Yokai warrior with limbs of titanium and his grandson-in-law, Inuyasha, to be a powerful warrior with muscles of steel, thus gaining every wolf Yokai warrior’s approval. Toga the Dog General and InuKimi the Dog Lady may have been supportive of their younger son’s decision to be raised by his grandfather-in-law, The Wolf Elder, as well as be with the person that he has always loved body and soul, Ayame, ever since their relationship flourished from sweet puppy love as little children to a more serious relationship as tweens to true intimacy as teenagers to purely conjugal love as adults to this day. While the Wolf Elder, Toga, and InuKimi have always been supportive of Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s conjugal relationship, one individual stands above the rest. He is none other than Sesshoumaru. He may be a noble dog Yokai warrior never to be messed with, but he is incredibly supportive of Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s unconditionally loving relationship and will always do his best to ensure respect, allegiance, love, and duty remain in their household. Ever since Sesshoumaru was 4 years old, he saw how 3-year-old Inuyasha and baby Ayame were playing together. Every time little Inuyasha tickled baby Ayame, she would coo and laugh with glee. By the time Inuyasha was 7 and Ayame was 4, 8-year-old Sesshoumaru also did his part in congratulating his younger brother for rescuing Ayame from the Birds of Paradise’s clutches. It was also through the sparring sessions he and Inuyasha had in Combat Sambo, Luta Livre, Judo, Jujitsu, Vale Tudo, Pankration, and Mixed Martial Arts from childhood to adolescence that Sesshoumaru saw a lot of potential in Inuyasha to grow up to be a powerful warrior worthy of Ayame’s unconditional love. As for Sesshoumaru’s treatment of Ayame going from young childhood to early pre-adolescence, Toga and InuKimi might have initially believed that, if Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s engagement did not work, Sesshoumaru would end up being the ideal candidate for Ayame’s hand in marriage. However, he had always treated Ayame with respect and decorum but knew full well that she was happier with Inuyasha because she could be herself with him. Inuyasha’s time with the Wolf Elder and his fellow tribesmen did see him grow from a rowdily rambunctious 8-year-old boy to a handsomely toned, athletic, and strong-bodied 12-year-old pre-teen champion in Pankration, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing who was the apple of every young she-wolf Yokai’s eyes. Nevertheless, his heart always belonged to Ayame and was fiercely loyal to her, considering how he would go out of his way to use his full dog Yokai powers to place Ayame’s enemies into painful submission. From age 9 to age 13, Sesshoumaru realized how stronger and more muscular Inuyasha was becoming, compared to Sesshoumaru’s lean yet well-built frame. Inuyasha may have grown buffer and stronger, but he always sought advice from Sesshoumaru on how to win over Ayame more often. The best advice Sesshoumaru always gave was for Inuyasha to be himself and always treat Ayame with respect, loyalty, kindness, and perseverance. He would even conclude his advice by saying that Inuyasha should never give up on Ayame in good times and in bad and take great care of her. Ayame also went from being a sweetly inquisitive 5-year-old girl to a quick-footed, speedy, and tough 9-year-old aspiring prizefighter in Kyuk Too Ki, Dutch Kickboxing, and Muay Thai who was always rooting for Inuyasha to win every fight against bigger, stronger, and more skilled opponents and scarier demons who constantly ravaged the wolf Yokai tribes. Moreover, Ayame has also found herself in Kickboxing, Boxing, and Muay Thai matches at a young age, thus triumphing in them as well as constantly having Inuyasha cheer for her. Every time Ayame saw Inuyasha grow from being a rambunctious boy to a handsome pre-teen warrior, her heart constantly melted and almost did not know the right words to say to him. Fortunately for her, she also sought Sesshoumaru’s advice on how to do her part in not only winning over Inuyasha but also staying by his side as his girlfriend, fiancée, and, eventually, his wife. He always reminded her that he was proud of Inuyasha for being with someone as genuine and true as Ayame. Furthermore, he always told her to be herself, champion Inuyasha, and take great care of him. Sesshoumaru’s advice appeared to have worked on Inuyasha and Ayame because springtime was the best season for them to get married. By the time Inuyasha was 12 and Ayame was 9, they decided to get married, to which both were overjoyed with this decision. 13-year-old Sesshoumaru could not have been prouder of his younger brother and his younger sister-in-law because he was also Inuyasha’s best man. He also made arrangements for 12-year-old Shuran to be the ringbearer, 11-year-olds Hakkaku and Ginta to be the men of honor, and 8-year-old Shunran to be the flower maiden. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s wedding took place in the Northern Yoro Tribe’s cave, with the Wolf Elder blessing the matrimony of his surrogate grandson and his granddaughter. Sesshoumaru additionally concocted a speech saying how proud he was of his brother and sister-in-law for finding unconditional love through each other. He also made it his duty to defend Inuyasha and Ayame from harm, champion their unconditionally loving relationship, and wish the best for their children. No doubt was Sesshoumaru happy to…

Inuyasha and Ayame: Battle Couple Extraordinaire

This Battle Couple Meme originally belongs to JasonPictures and is dedicated to all the wonderful Inuyasha x Ayame or InuAya shippers, partisans, and loyalists of the world. Sit back, relax, and revel in the epic awesomeness that Inuyasha’s super muscular strength and Ayame’s mega-furious limbs have to offer as a mighty battle couple ready to demolish their opponents. I have always heard fans of certain canon pairings for Inuyasha crying over the clamor that he never has feelings for Ayame, Ayame only has feelings for a certain loser wolf Yokai warrior who was all talk but no action, and they barely know each other in the show. I have this to say. Hold your tongues and get out of my lecture hall because I play by my rules, I have my AU headcanon to enjoy, and no fantard, no canon Nazi, no self-loathing Alpha Male wannabe, and no idiot whiner is going to change that. I have been dealing with this rubbish of fun-sucking canon Nazis and self-loathing losers who are devotees of the canon pairings Inuyasha and Ayame had for what seems like forever, and I remain unfazed by them because they should know where the door to the exit sign is. Nevertheless, I still want to have a good time with my most beloved OTP of all time, InuAya, for I have been cultivating fun and exciting ideas for this power couple. For those of you who can maintain an open mind and are not fun-sucking canon Nazis as certain people have been, please stay here as much as you can and listen as best as you can. To say that I have made it no secret that I am an InuAya devotee is a mere understatement. I adulate and love my OTP for life because of the possibilities Inuyasha and Ayame have to thrive as a mightily powerful battle couple extraordinaire who can thrash bigger, stronger, fiercer opponents with everything they got. Inuyasha’s sheer brutality in his super strength, magnificent muscle power, and beastly brawn are perfect complements to Ayame’s stealthy combat prowess in her furious fists, fleet feet, and quicksilver speed. My AU headcanon has made it abundantly clear that Inuyasha is the right man for the job to be both Ayame’s husband as well as a strong leader and warrior for the Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western Yoro or wolf demon tribes. Unlike a certain insignificant wolf turd who was all machismo and no moxie, Inuyasha would be the super strong and magnificently muscular Alpha Male that he is made to be for Ayame. Moreover, unlike a certain shrew who controls with an accursed shock collar, Ayame would be respectful to her husband and fierce for herself. Inuyasha and Ayame are truly unbreakable forces. For those of you who are new to what my AU headcanon revolving around Inuyasha and Ayame is about here it goes. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s loving relationships commenced in their infancy, with the newborn Ayame playing with 3-year-old Inuyasha while The Wolf Elder, Toga the Dog General, and InuKimi adored how happy the two of them were when playing with each other. Even 4-year-old Sesshoumaru thought that Inuyasha and Ayame were adorable together, which was a sign of things to come, given that The Wolf Elder, Toga, and InuKimi thought it was great for Inuyasha and Ayame to be betrothed. Four years later, 7-year-old Inuyasha saved 4-year-old Ayame from the Birds of Paradise’s attacks by punching, grappling, kicking, biting, and clawing at them, thus making little Ayame overjoyed to have her future husband save her. This even motivated young Inuyasha to live with Ayame’s tribe, be raised by her grandfather, and be trained by the warriors of the Wolf Yokai warrior tribes. For one still very young such as Inuyasha, he grew stronger and fiercer when he trained with Ayame’s grandfather and his warriors. Time passed on. Inuyasha grew from a rowdy young boy of 8 years old to a handsomely tall youth of 11 years old who was starting to develop in muscle as well as fully embracing his full Alpha Male dog Yokai warrior blood and instincts, thanks to all the intense training he underwent with the wolf Yokai warriors and the visiting Greek Pankratiasts, wrestlers, and boxers who were twice as massive as the wolf Yokai warriors and young Inuyasha combined. Inuyasha was not afraid to land some severe blows, takedowns, grapples, and submission holds because he showed grit and determination as a warrior. As for Ayame, she grew from an inquisitive young girl of 5 years old to a lovely yet fierce young lady of 8 years old who was becoming quicker, stronger, and stealthier with her punches, kicks, and strikes, thanks to how she also went through the same amount of training Inuyasha endured and fighting against Korea’s and Thailand’s best boxers, Muay Thai practitioners, Taekwondo fighters, and Hapkido warriors, thus being just as confident and determined as her future husband was. Inuyasha and Ayame definitely grew in strength. By the time Inuyasha was 12 and Ayame was 9, they were engaged, and their inseparability was further solidified. Ayame always knew in her heart no other boy or young man could ever be equaled to Inuyasha because of his physical strength and undying loyalty. Inuyasha always made it his duty to fight by Ayame’s side and be the strong, protective fiancé he ought to be. One spring day, Inuyasha asked Ayame if she wanted to marry him, to which Ayame said a hugely resounding yes and kissed him as joyously as possible. The Wolf Elder blessed 12-year-old Inuyasha’s and 9-year-old Ayame’s wedding with fortitude, courage, and perseverance as well as a powerful family. Additionally, Ayame, despite being really young, wanted to have a family with Inuyasha, to which he also said yes. Inuyasha turned 13 and Ayame turned 10 and ended up going through their respective rites of passage. 13-year-old Inuyasha attained the legendary Goraishi, while 10-year-old Ayame took on the Birds of Paradise to obtain…

Ayame the Formidable Kyuk Too Ki Prizefighter

This piece of Ayame fanart, which is my fifteenth submission for this year’s 30 Days of InuAya Month last April, is dedicated to all of the wonderful Inuyasha x Ayame shippers worldwide as well as all the Ayame fans of the world. Sit back, relax, and soak in Ayame’s unbridled formidability as one of the most brutal Kyuk Too Ki or Korean Kickboxing fighters that the world has ever seen. Making her entrance into the kickboxing ring clad in a red tank top, red shorts, red boxing gloves, and red leg guards is Ayame. Ayame’s all-red attire is the result of Inuyasha giving her his legendary Robe of the Fire Rat to her as an engagement gift when they were very young children. 8-year-old Ayame was so touched by 11-year-old Inuyasha’s engagement gift that she kissed him so hard on his cheek that he became as red as a tomato. A year later, at just nine years old, she was even introduced to several combatants from North Korea, South Korea, Thailand, and the Netherlands who made her ingrained in the world of Taekwondo, Hapkido, Muay Korat, Muay Chaiya, Muay Lopburi, Muay Thasao, and Dutch Kickboxing. These were the same styles that she adapted to her combat repertoire through her intense training with Chun-Li, Cammy White, Sakura Kasugano, Blair Dame, Hokuto, Nina Williams, and Jun Kazama. Even as 10-year-old Ayame was already happily married to 13-year-old Inuyasha and had their first set of children together in the form of triplet sons, she continued to thrive as a kickboxer and as a person. Every punch, kick, elbow strike, knee strike, shin kick, clinch, and takedown Ayame committed herself to against stronger, more skilled, and more humongous opponents, she became a more formidable force inside and outside the ring. Ayame always has her dearest husband Inuyasha to thank not for only the martial arts attire made of his Robe of the Fire Rat which he wore as a child, as well as the demon ox hide used for her boxing gloves, but also for being her greatest encourager and for being one of the strongest sparring partners she has ever fought against. Therefore, she can attest that Inuyasha is the most loyal, most dedicated, most lovable, and most virile husband Ayame could ever ask for. It also says something that Ayame always looks very good in red, which she always has Inuyasha to be eternally thankful for.

Best Power Rangers for each Splendid Seven Member

Greetings, Splendid Seven devotees, martial arts aficionados, fighting video game fans, and admirers of all things Super Sentai and Power Rangers. Antoni here with another written entry focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specializing in the martial arts they do. Now, we have come to the moment in which Saban-era Power Ranger fits each Splendid Seven member in terms of sparring. Some of these choices may surprise you, while others are selections that you know fit specific Splendid Seven members, given the many times I have posted about the Mighty Morphin Inurangers.   Outside my Inurangers headcanon, I also composed seven-person dream teams that consist of the Saban-era Power Rangers from 1993 to 2002. One of the most prominent dream teams I have been composing thus far is the Military Squadron Power Rangers consisting of Tommy Oliver the White Tigerzord Ranger, Jason Lee Scott the Black Gold Ranger, Eric Myers the Red Quantum Ranger, Rocky DeSantos the Blue Zeo Ranger, Adam Park the Green Zeo Ranger, Taylor Earhardt the Yellow Eagle Wild Force Ranger, and Jen Scotts the Pink Time Force Ranger. This is a Power Rangers dream team that I have been enjoying so much.   Where am I going with this? If it were not already clear, I have appointed the Military Squadron Power Rangers as the number one sparring partners for the Splendid Seven. Aside from sparring alone, they also make the closest sets of friends, comrades, and siblings from other parents who can have certain traits and activities in common. Therefore, I have hit the jackpot in terms of finding which Power Ranger is the best fit for each Yokai martial artist. With that said, let us get ready to rumble with these Power Ranger-Yokai martial artist platonic pairings and sparring match-ups. Osu! Hajime!   Tommy Oliver and Sesshoumaru: The Icy Emperors of the Octagon (Mixed Martial Arts) Suiting up in their silver-white MMA shorts and silver MMA gloves to deliver fatal blows to each other in the octagonal cage are Tommy and Sesshoumaru, who are legendary mixed martial artists. Once they enter the cage, a deadly chill would surround the two powerful fighters who are ready to obliterate each other. Tommy’s speed and strength perfectly complement Sesshoumaru’s stealth and deadliness because they know how to deliver ruthless attacks with accurate timing and demanding power. Every time that Tommy delivers a double leg takedown, a kneebar, and a Kimura to Sesshoumaru, Sesshoumaru counters them with a sprawl and brawl, a series of ground and pounds, an armbar, and an ankle lock to finish the match. Given how Tommy has always witnessed how Sesshoumaru is as a mixed martial artist, he would always encourage him to never go easy on his opponents in every martial arts tournament he is in. What defines both Tommy and Sesshoumaru is respect, discipline, honor, and integrity as martial artists and as men of honor. Mixed Martial Arts may be important to Tommy and Sesshoumaru, but they also love drinking matcha and herbal tea, circuit training, meditative forest walks, and fine Asian fusion pescatarian cuisine.   Jason Lee Scott and Shuran: The Fiery Executioners of the Ring (Professional Wrestling) Pairing Jason with Shuran may seem suicidal in terms of their massive size difference, but this works surprisingly well. Jason has always faced bigger and stronger opponents with courage and determination. In turn, Shuran has consistently respected Jason because of his fearless drive and strong will. When Jason in black wrestling trunks and Shuran in green wrestling trunks enter the ring, they would surprise each other in electrifying ways. Jason may give Shuran a host of body slams, Boston crabs, and camel clutches. However, Shuran can strike back at Jason with a vengeance, thanks to his piledrivers, bearhugs, German suplexes, and submission holds. Nevertheless, Jason has enough strength to always encourage Shuran to always give it his all when he faces off against bigger opponents, monsters, and demons and use his brute strength as well as pulverizing pro-wrestling moves responsibly. Jason would never allow anybody to bully Shuran because of his size, while Shuran makes it his main goal to protect Jason from harm and fight by his side. Outside the pro wrestling ring, Jason and Shuran enjoy drinking yak’s, buffalo’s, and bison’s milk; intense powerlifting, mountain-climbing, and a high-protein, carb-free, sugar-free cuisine.   Eric Myers and Inuyasha: The Bludgeoning Sons of Heracles and Theseus (Pankration) Forget the restrictions. Forget holding back. Because Eric and Inuyasha are ready to engage in a bloody, brutal, visceral, and vicious match with their toned bodies all drenched in olive oil. They would find themselves situated in the Athenian arena hosted by Heracles and Theseus themselves. Eric may don a red loincloth to accentuate his lean musculature, but Inuyasha would not mind covering his private part in only a protective cup made out of a demon lion’s crimson mane to capitalize on his bulging muscles. With Heracles’s strength and Theseus’s combat prowess, Eric and Inuyasha would ferociously charge at each other like the Nemean Lion and the Minotaur. Eric would deliver Superman punches, hammer fists, and heel hooks. Inuyasha would counterattack Eric with double axe handles, tracheal grip chokes, rear naked chokes, and guillotine chokes. Eric always encourages Inuyasha to show no mercy in beating his opponents to a pulp while doing these battles for the Olympian gods. When Eric and Inuyasha are not bludgeoning each other to death, they love each other like brothers. They enjoy drinking Kykeon, goat’s milk, and diluted wine with honey; partaking in extreme strongman competitions, weightlifting, and dining on Mediterranean Greek cuisine.   Rocky DeSantos and Hakkaku: The Crashing Crocodiles of Nine Limbs (Muay Boran) Leaving stronger opponents all black and blue, bruised, and battered is the name of the game once Rocky in blue and Hakkaku in black don their shorts, wrap their hands in hemp rope, and step into the Thai palace arena in Bangkok. Royalty would indubitably hail Rocky and Hakkaku as the finest…

The Splendid Seven’s Best Power Ranger Sparrers

Greetings, Splendid Seven devotees, martial arts aficionados, fighting video game fans, and admirers of all things Super Sentai and Power Rangers. Antoni here with another written entry focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran specializing in the martial arts they do. I definitely enjoyed doing my first Power Ranger sparring partners for The Splendid Seven entry because of the possibilities presented for each Yokai martial artist with attitude to spar with the various Power Rangers suited for them. Now, the focus has become narrower and more specific for group-ups between each Splendid Seven member and three or four Power Ranger sparring partners. This means three Power Ranger sparring partners for Sesshoumaru and Shuran as well as four Power Ranger sparring partners for Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran. Why three for Sesshoumaru and Shuran plus four for Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran? Because, if you have been tuning into my Mighty Morphin Inurangers AU headcanon, you will automatically understand that Sesshoumaru and Shuran fit the bill as white/silver and black/titanium rangers, with Shuran being the Green Dragonzord Ranger, while Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran represent the five main ranger colors of red, black/blue, blue/green, yellow, and pink respectively.   There are going to be the usual ranger suspects such as Tommy Oliver, Jason Lee Scott, Zack Taylor, Billy Cranston, Rocky DeSantos, and Adam Park. In Tommy’s and Jason’s case, they will not end up donning their Red Ranger attires here, for they will respectively don their White Tigerzord Ranger and Black Gold Ranger attires. I say this because both Tommy and Jason can do very well as sixth/extra rangers aside from being leaders. As for Rocky, I have always argued that he was much better as the Blue Ranger than as the Red Ranger. Adam has always been suitable as both the Black and Green Rangers, although he is the Green Zeo Ranger here. The surprise here is enlisting Eric Myers as a Red Ranger not just because of his attire but also because of his leadership experience with the Silver Guardians, which makes him a good candidate for being one of the best Red Rangers of all time, despite being a sixth/extra Ranger. Therefore, the choices for Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are more streamlined and focused rather than just having the usual suspects. With that said, let us begin.   Sesshoumaru with Tommy Oliver, Zhane, and Merrick Baliton (Mixed Martial Arts) The octagonal cage is experiencing a deathly chill when Sesshoumaru steps into it to do some training with Tommy, Zhane, and Merrick. Every ground and pound, armbar, sprawl and brawl, and Kimura thrown at each other is enough to make them bleed profusely like waterfalls. UFC and Pride FC know that they are in good hands when Tommy, Zhane, and Merrick proudly endorse Sesshoumaru as the fiercest fighter they have ever combated with. Tommy, Zhane, Merrick, and Sesshoumaru also maintain decorum, discipline, respect, and honor toward each other, especially when they drink matcha after a long day of sparring.   Shuran with Jason Lee Scott, Mike Corbett, and Ryan Mitchell (Professional Wrestling) Just because Jason, Mike, and Ryan are chiefly collegiate wrestlers does not mean they cannot take down Shuran the all-star pro wrestler in the ring. In fact, brute strength, raw power, camaraderie, and tenacity are the names of the games whenever Shuran has his wrestling matches with them. These are clear in the bone-crushing piledrivers, German suplexes, powerslams, and bearhugs employed by each other. WWE and TNA can vouch for what Jason, Mike, and Ryan describe Shuran as a powerful wrestler. Outside the ring, they enjoy drinking big jugs of refreshing yak’s milk to fortify their bodies for the next few rounds.   Inuyasha with Eric Myers, Leo Corbett, Alex Drake, and Wes Collins (Pankration) Heracles and Theseus have bestowed an indubitably formidable brotherhood upon Eric, Leo, Alex, Wes, and Inuyasha thanks to their super strength, resilience, determination, and fierceness. No Nemean Lion and no Minotaur in the arena can obliterate these Pankratiasts because they have the tracheal grip chokes, double axe handles, camel clutches, and hammer fists to subdue them. Even Inuyasha can give Eric, Leo, Alex, and Wes brutal beatings that would leave them numb, bruised, and bloodied. When not squeezing and beating the life out of each other, they love to drink Kykeon as a sign of gratitude for Heracles and Theseus.   Hakkaku with Rocky DeSantos, Zack Taylor, Kai Chen, and Chad Lee (Muay Boran) The lush Thai jungles can never be tamed, for they are the perfect breeding ground for toughening determined warriors such as Rocky, Zack, Kai, Chad, and Hakkaku. It is through their toughness, passion, relentlessness, and dedication that they are able to survive even the direst of natural conditions. Backed up by their elbow slashes, flying knees, knee bombs, and headbutts, they can give several stronger and more skilled opponents plus each other the beatings of a lifetime. Aside from ensuring that their limbs and head are in mint condition, they replenish their bodies by drinking coconut water straight from the source.   Ginta with Adam Park, Billy Cranston, Damon Henderson, and Joel Rawlings (Lethwei) The hot Burmese sandpits are always drenched in sweat and blood, given how they are made home to Adam, Billy, Damon, Joel, and Ginta. They are also defined by charisma, quickness, perseverance, and zealousness to achieve their goals as best as they can. All these attributes are supported by their push kicks, headbutts, flying knees, and backfists which are useful for bringing bigger opponents to their knees and paralyzing them. Nobody can ever knock these combatants down because they have the limbs of steel to prove it. Thrashing opponents aside, they keep their bodies refreshed by drinking Toddy juice mixed with Spirulina.   Ayame with Taylor Earhardt, Maya, Katie Walker, and Ashley Hammond (Kyuk Too Ki) When speed, power, balance, and timing unite and are engendered in fists and feet of fury, it can…

My Fourteen Anime Septet Martial Arts Teams

Greetings, anime fans, martial arts aficionados, fighting game devotees, and enthusiasts of all things pertaining to anime, martial arts, video games, and fighting tournaments. Antoni here with another written entry. The UFC, Pride FC, World Combat League, martial arts tournament, and fighting game junkie in me has struck again. Deservedly so. I love the result of combining anime with martial arts tournaments because of how well they can correlate with each other in terms of strength, excitement, thrills, and formidability. One can never go wrong with such a combination, and I am one of the many people pleased to have done so.   When I first made my anime martial arts septet line-up, I initially believed that some of the entries made sense. However, looking back at it, some of them have not held up that well. This time I will bump my list up to fourteen team-ups because, after all, fourteen is a number divisible by seven. It is also better that I work with this number because eight just seemed too deficient. Moreover, I based it on my Toonami-era Inurangers headcanon team line-up, which serves as a fictional counterpart to the real-life Saban-era Power Rangers teams. As I said, looking back at the martial arts I gave some of the teams, they could be better.   The same rule applies I will list down the characters I caught on Animax, Adult Swim, Hero TV, and even on the internet. Therefore, do expect some of my favorite characters from Inuyasha, Baki the Grappler, Shura no Toki, Shootfighter Tekken, Hajime no Ippo, Texhnolyze, Wolf’s Rain, Fullmetal Alchemist, Solty Rei, Ultra Maniac, Detective School Q, Chrono Crusade, Geneshaft, Galaxy Angel, Hungry Heart, GetBackers, Full Metal Panic, Gokusen, UFO Baby, and Cardcaptor Sakura to show up. Characters from Cowboy Bebop, Baccano, Hellsing Ultimate, Trigun, Outlaw Star, Fist of the North Star, YuYu Hakusho, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Stratos 4, Witch Hunter Robin, Saiyuki, Saber Marionette J, Otogi Zoshi the Legend of Magatama, Rurouni Kenshin, R.O.D. the TV, Ayakashi Samurai Horror Tales, Dragon Ball Z, Bleach, Jungle no Ouja Tar-Chan, Great Teacher Onizuka, Flame of Recca, Gun X Sword, Tsukihime, Ghost Stories, Haibane Renmei, and many other anime series that I could barely name off the top of my head deserve separate lists too because they are a class of their own, especially the first seven I just mentioned, and I would not want to oversaturate this entry. Furthermore, the now grown-up Inuyasha kids as well as my anime OTP next-generation characters from Inuyasha x Ayame to Hakkaku x Shunran x Ginta to many others I would have loved to mention are also going to be featured in another entry. With that said, let us commence that great kick-butt, high-octane martial action. Osu! Hajime!   The Splendid Seven (Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran) These seven Yokai martial artists consisting of two dog yokai brothers in Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha, three spiky-haired brothers in Shuran, Hakkaku, and Ginta, and two auburn-haired sisters in Ayame and Shunran can make their opponents tremble when they enter the arena. When combining Sesshoumaru’s ground and pounds, Shuran’s piledrivers, Inuyasha’s tracheal grip chokes, Hakkaku’s elbow strikes, Ginta’s flying knees, Ayame’s uppercuts, and Shunran’s nerve strikes, they become an unstoppable force. What keeps them together is ferocious formidability, for they can never be knocked down from every grueling challenge. Sesshoumaru (Inuyasha) – Mixed Martial Arts Shuran (Inuyasha) – Professional Wrestling Inuyasha (Inuyasha) – Pankration Hakkaku (Inuyasha) – Muay Boran Ginta (Inuyasha) – Lethwei Ayame (Inuyasha) – Kyuk Too Ki Shunran (Inuyasha) – Shaolin Kung Fu   The Honorable Budoka (Kuranosuke, Kisuke, Shinosuke, Toran, Wakana, Enju, and Karan) Honor, decorum, valor, stamina, respect, cooperation, and confidence are what define these seven incredible martial artists. Kuranosuke Takeda, Kisuke, and Shinosuke are valiant combatants of the Kyokushin Kaikan discipline because of how these three gentlemen throw unapologetically hard blows against their opponents. Toran is like water when she makes her enemies fall on their knees. Wakana and Enju possess strikes so painful that they can make any perpetrator’s limbs go numb. Karan has lightning-fast attacks that see her go zero gravity into the air and land sharp blows. Therefore, any bum would be foolish to take them down. Kuranosuke Takeda (Inuyasha) – Ashihara Karate Kisuke (Inuyasha) – Enshin Karate Shinosuke (Inuyasha) – Seidokaikan Karate Toran (Inuyasha) – Jeet Kune Do Wakana (Inuyasha) – Nippon Kenpo Enju (Inuyasha) – Shorinji Kenpo Karan (Inuyasha) – Taekwondo   The Noble Karate Warriors (Hoshiyomi, Suikotsu, Amari, Tsukyiomi, Sara, Kikyo, and Shima) Abundant decorum and sharp focus are these seven Karatekas guiding lights as combatants and as individuals. There is no strike, no takedown, no punch, and no kick strong enough to take these warriors down who all have the mindset of a samurai ready for either battle or death. Their enemies need to be wary of Hoshiyomi’s and Suikotsu’s penchant for full-contact strikes, Amari’s deadly precision, Tsukiyomi’s accuracy, Sara’s focus, Kikyo’s relentlessness, and Shima’s agility. Any blow these seven Karatekas have in store can either gain their opponents’ respect or break and burn them on the inside to ashes and cinders. Hoshiyomi (Inuyasha) – Kyokushin Karate Suikotsu (Inuyasha) – Shotokan Karate Amari Nobunaga (Inuyasha) – Goju-Ryu Karate Tsukiyomi (Inuyasha) – Shukokai Karate Sara Asano (Inuyasha) – Shito-Ryu Karate Kikyo (Inuyasha) – Shorin-Ryu Karate Shima (Inuyasha) – Motobu-Ryu Karate   The Kings of Formidable Fists (Baki, Ryoma, Takeshi, Kiibo, Alexander, Ichiro, and Ippo) Boxing or Mixed Martial Arts? Who gives a damn? Seven strong and sturdy dudes who are Mixed Martial Boxing? You’re going to give a damn! This is especially true when Baki Hanma, Ryoma Sakamoto, Takeshi Sendo, Kiichi Miyazawa, Alexander Volg Zangief, Ichiro Miyata, and Ippo Makunouchi are prepared to give a whole array of painful uppercuts, jabs, hooks, straight punches, submission holds, ground and pounds, and armbars. Having furious fists and fine footwork may not be enough in the long run, but combining those attributes with abundant physical strength and…

Military Squadron Power Rangers Morphing Sequence

This septet meme originally belongs to Alpha-Duelist35 and is dedicated to all of the Power Rangers fans in the world. Sit back, relax, and soak in the sheer awesomeness of the Military Squadron Power Rangers’ morphing sequence. Ah, my precious Power Rangers dream team consisting of Tommy Oliver the White Tigerzord Ranger, Jason Lee Scott the Black Gold Zeo Ranger, Rocky DeSantos the Blue Zeo Ranger, Jen Scotts the Pink Time Force Ranger, Adam Park the Green Zeo Ranger, Taylor Earhardt the Yellow Eagle Wild Force Ranger, and Eric Myers the Red Quantum Ranger have struck again and for good reason. This is a dream team that is formidable, strong, tough, and relentless both physically and psychologically. Every mission that they are in assigned by Commander William Mitchell, is guaranteed to be accomplished successfully despite all the harsh challenges and the brutally insidious monsters, demons, and all types of nasty invaders. Therefore, the Military Squadron Power Rangers are more than happy to protect and serve the people from all danger and do it so wonderfully as a team as well as a septet of great friends. When it comes to the complete team morphing sequence, this is how it goes down. Eric gathers his comrades with the command, “Military Squadron Power Rangers, assemble!” Eric remains in the middle. On his left side are Taylor, Jason, and Tommy. On his right side are Jen, Adam, and Rocky. Eric prepares his Quantum Morpher, Jason his Gold Ranger Zeonizer, Tommy his White Tigerzord Power Morpher, Rocky his Blue Ranger Zeonizer, Adam his Green Ranger Zeonizer, Taylor her Growl Phone, and Jen her Chrono Morpher. All seven rangers are ready to morph, as they bellow in unison, “It’s morphin’ time!” The morphing command sequence is as follows. Tommy: White Tigerzord Ranger Power! (Zoom in on the White Tigerzord Ranger helmet.) Jason: Black Gold Ranger Power! (Jason is then suited into his Black Gold Ranger outfit.) Rocky: Zeo Ranger Three Blue! (Rocky is then fully suited up in his Blue Zeo Ranger outfit.) Jen: Time for Time Force! (She presses the button and then says.) Time Force Pink! (After that, she is suited up in her Pink Time Force Ranger outfit.) Adam: Zeo Ranger Four Green! (Adam is then fully suited up in his Green Zeo Ranger outfit.) Taylor: Wild Access Yellow! (The Growl Phone becomes sentient, as Taylor appears making an eagle-like pose.) Soaring Eagle! (Close-up to the right side of Taylor’s face, as her helmet is inserted over her head.) Eric: Red Quantum Power! (Eric’s fist glows a bright red and raises it to the air, as he roars.) Red Quantum Ranger! (Eric is then all suited up as the Red Quantum Ranger.) All seven rangers would be suited up and ready for battle. Furthermore, this is a morphing sequence that could potentially end all morphing sequences, given how formidable and united the Military Squadron Power Rangers are. Villains, monsters, demons, and invaders do not stand a chance against Eric the valiant leader with an iron fist, Jason the strong muscle, Tommy the martial arts maverick, Rocky the headstrong warrior, Adam the conscientious strategist, Taylor the gutsy soldier, and Jen the determined action girl. Therefore, when these seven soldiers morph into the Military Squadron Power Rangers, innocent civilians will be surely confident that their lives are well-protected thanks to them. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and may the power protect you, especially when you count on the Military Squadron Power Rangers, everybody. Tommy Oliver, Jason Lee Scott, Eric Myers, Rocky DeSantos, Adam Park, Taylor Earhardt, and Jen Scotts from the Power Rangers franchise belong to Saban and Toei.
