Alexander’s and TJ’s Charismatic Warmth

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who finds the idea of Alexander and TJ being great friends, warm-hearted brothers from other mothers, and the most appreciative sportsmen of all time. Sit back, relax, and revel in TJ’s and Alexander’s exceptionally appreciative brand of brotherhood to the point where they root for each other’s endeavors and encourage each other to be the best athletes, combatants, and men they can be. TJ has always been a true Red Ranger, for he truly deserved to be one in the second half of Power Rangers Turbo and was a worthy addition to “Forever Red.” His charisma, openness, strong leadership, and amazing ability to think quickly on his feet are all wonderful attributes that have made him succeed Tommy as the real-deal Red Lightning Turbo Ranger. There is no doubt that Alexander aspires to be just as strong and charismatic of a leader as TJ is. While TJ is grateful for Alexander’s aspirations to reach his level of leadership, he would remind him that he has something special. In fact, TJ admires Alexander for leading his team as the Red Lightning Turbo Inuranger all throughout Inurangers Turbo, thanks to his focus, strength, determination, and steeliness. More than any of those traits, TJ would also see abundant humility and unconditional love for his family in Alexander, which he also cherishes so much. The levels of appreciation brimming between TJ and Alexander are through the roof, thus encouraging both of them to constantly demonstrate gratitude toward each other, their friends, and their families. TJ’s and Alexander’s empowerment of each other’s positive leadership skills is not only accomplished through their characters but also their aspirations and hobbies. TJ’s stamina as a baseball player and Alexander’s discipline as a boxer are what empower each other to perform at their peak level. This gets to the point where TJ adapts to Alexander’s controlled aggression from boxing, and Alexander implements the necessary accuracy from baseball like hitting the ball with the bat. They would even engage in intensive training sessions in baseball and boxing. Athletic skills aside, both TJ and Alexander would demonstrate their love for food and food preparation. For special occasions, TJ would prepare gumbo and Jambalaya, while Alexander would prepare borscht and pelmeni for each other to taste to their hearts’ content. All of their activities would make them grow closer to each other like brothers. Alexander would exposit how much he would love to have a big brother because he felt alone with his mother. TJ responds that he will be Alexander’s big brother for life, thus leading them to be in each other’s warm embrace. 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, everybody. Alexander Volg Zangief from Hajime no Ippo belongs to George Morikawa and Madhouse.

Toran’s and Jason’s Stupendous Endurance

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who finds the idea of Toran and Jason being the best of friends, the staunchest of companions, and bearing a bond that puts various older brother-younger sister, let alone mentor-mentee, relationships to shame. Thus, Jason’s and Toran’s relationship can tread between the tough mentorship that Pai Mei gives Beatrix aka The Bride from Kill Bill and the sibling-like bond that rivals Orestes and Electra. Sit back, relax, and revel in Jason’s and Toran’s exceptionally formidable siblinghood and unbridled penchant for action. As I stated before in one of my previous entries revolving around the Inurangers’ version of “Forever Red”, I made Toran take on Jason’s role because she represents being the fearlessly fierce leader of her team while also making her the second-in-command and lancer to Inuyasha’s leader of the Toonami-era Red Inurangers. Yes, Jason is the original Red Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Seasons 1 to 2. Yes, Toran is the Red Zeo Inuranger from Inurangers Zeo as well as the first female Red Ranger in my Inurangers AU headcanon. Nevertheless, they both lead their respective teams with courage, resilience, and determination. Their leadership roles are not handed on silver platters. Both Toran and Jason work hard to make sure their teams are well-protected and safe from danger. They also carry a strong sense of command to the point where their presence can never be questioned. Should anybody be so foolish as to cross Jason’s and Toran’s paths, a deadly combination of Jason’s meteor brimstone and Toran’s icicle showers shall occur upon the perpetrators. They are not to be messed with at all. Their unquestioned leadership also provides them room to exercise their martial arts expertise to protect those who are in massive affliction and to empower those who aspire to be as formidable as they are. Furthermore, Jason’s muscular Herculean strength and Toran’s fiercely Athenian stamina make them physically compatible as an unstoppable duo, thus showing that strength and stamina work exceedingly well together. Jason’s abilities in Kenpo, Judo, Taekwondo, and weightlifting are wonderfully complimented by Toran’s skills in Krav Maga, Marine Corps Martial Arts, Muay Lerdrit, and Silat Melayu to the point where they can never be stopped. Sparring sessions between Jason and Toran would be filled with blood-curdling ululations and high-impact blows echoing throughout the training hall. Every fireman carry, leg wheel, tornado kick, and hammer fist Jason gives to Toran would be countered by her wristlocks, chokeholds, palm strikes, and groin strikes. Jason would be thoroughly impressed with Toran’s eviscerating attacks, while Toran would love to emulate Jason’s fierceness and formidability in battle. Jason and Toran would also possess a formidably profound mentor-student bond that sees Jason seeing the best in Toran’s skills as a warrior and person. Jason knows fully well that there is more to leadership than solely vanquishing opponents because it is important to have good friends to fall back on. Toran’s bravado for conquering her enemies with her amazing martial arts skills may make her a truly formidable warrior empress, but even she understands the unquestionable value of friendship, respect, allegiance, and personal responsibility. Jason can see in Toran a fiercely loyal and unbreakably determined warrior who will not rest until the deeds are done. He would even do her a world of good by polishing her signature attacks, so that she can prioritize effectiveness and purpose should she find herself in a compromising situation. Techniques are not the only building blocks that need to be polished. Character is just as important in Jason’s training hall, for Toran would learn the importance of camaraderie, compassion, and cooperation to grow as a warrior empress and a person. Combat prowess and character development aside, Jason and Toran would also possess a firm bond, with the former being the take-charge older brother figure to the latter’s fiercely determined younger sister figure. There are occasions where Jason tends to be peeved with Toran’s high-and-mighty attitude revolving around besting opponents much stronger than her as well as her momentarily battle lust. There are also occasions where Toran feels like Jason constantly postulates his scoutmaster values to a fault to the point where they annoy her to no end. However, to say that Jason and Toran care for each other is a mere understatement. Jason always looks out for Toran’s safety and well-being, while Toran uses her courage to protect Jason from all harm and destruction. Their steadfastness to each other remains unparalleled and will always fight against any and every adversity they face. Whenever toil, danger, and strife come to invade their happy sibling-like bond, they would push back with full abandon and never surrender. Therefore, Jason and Toran will never leave each other’s side and will always triumph. 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, everybody. Toran from Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise.

Ryuichi’s and Aurico’s Dashing Regalness

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who finds the idea of Ryuichi and Aurico being great friends and loyal companions to each other. Sit back, relax, and revel in the exceptionally dynamic bond that Ryuichi and Aurico possess together. I stated in a previous submission that Ryuichi’s more active presence in the Inurangers version of “Forever Red” rectifies Aurico’s limited screen presence. Moreover, Ryucihi rectifies Rocky DeSantos’s non-participation in this special as well as his shaky reputation as the second Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, at least according to the Power Rangers fandom. This makes Ryuichi more of a hero and a leader as the Red Ronin Inuranger than Aurico is as the Red Alien Ranger of Aquitar. While Ryuichi possesses charisma, virile charm, and masculine bravado as the Red Ronin Inuranger, Aurico possesses decorum, fighting spirit, and sufficient backbone as the Red Alien Ranger. Aurico and Ryuichi would greatly benefit from each other in terms of constructing each other’s best traits and improving each other’s weaknesses. Should Aurico be injured in battle, Ryuichi would sacrifice himself to protect him. Should Ryuichi suffer from a nearly devastating attack from enemies, Aurico would use his powers to shield him from harm. Therefore, Aurico and Ryuichi have each other’s backs every time. Ryuichi’s and Aurico’s steadfastness toward each other also guarantees that they can grow as much stronger fighters. As Ryuichi is an acclaimed boxer, he can use his pugilistic skills to help Aurico think quickly on his feet should any attacks or physical invasions befall him. Considering Aurico’s extraordinary powers born from Aquitar, he can use them to heighten Ryuichi’s self-defense. Physical prowess is not the only attribute working well for both Aurico and Ryuichi, as they can also build each other’s traits. Aurico has decorum, conscientiousness, and honor as a fighter, thus making all his traits worthy of aspiration for Ryuichi. Sometimes Aurico’s way of being akin to Ryuichi’s big brother from another mother may be old-fashioned, but he demonstrates fierce loyalty toward him. Ryuichi has charisma, charm, and fearlessness as a fighter, which Aurico cherishes. Although Ryuichi tends to be too big for his boots, Aurico reminds him that there is more to life than obtaining conquest, prestige, and fame. With Aurico and Ryuichi existing together as brothers from other mothers, they can always see the best in each other. 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, everybody. Ryuichi Hayami from Hajime no Ippo belongs to George Morikawa and Madhouse. Aurico from Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers belongs to Saban and Toei.

Inuyasha’s and Tommy’s Legendary Formidability

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who finds the idea of Inuyasha and Tommy being the best of friends, the closest of brothers from other mothers, and possessing a bond that rivals the father figure-surrogate son relationship between Uncle Phil and Will, especially with Tommy taking on Uncle Phil’s mantle and Inuyasha taking on Will’s role. Sit back, relax, and revel in Tommy’s and Inuyasha’s unparalleled genuineness as brothers until the end. I know I already talked about why I believe Inuyasha is a more credible fit for Tommy’s leadership role and long-lasting legacy as the greatest Power Ranger of all time from all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to Power Rangers Wild Force’s “Forever Red”, despite being the leader of the Mighty Morphin Inurangers like Jason Lee Scott is to his real-life Mighty Morphin Power Rangers counterparts. However, it is worth reiterating that Inuyasha is just as much of the face of the Inurangers franchise as Tommy is to the Power Rangers franchise. Where Tommy appeared in all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, the first half of Power Rangers Turbo, and led his fellow Red Rangers in “Forever Red”, Inuyasha appeared in all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers always as the Red Ranger leader, one team-up episode in Inurangers Zeo, one team-up episode in Inurangers in Space, and led his fellow Red Rangers in the Inurangers version of “Forever Red.” Therefore, Tommy’s and Inuyasha’s shared legacies as the greatest Rangers and heroes ever are thoroughly earned. Their earned reputations of being the greatest Rangers ever from their respective universes are coupled with their outstanding physical endurance. Tommy is unbeatable combat prowess incarnate, and Inuyasha is all magnificently muscular super strength, especially when they spar with each other in Pankration, Kapu Kuialua, and Combat Sambo. Inuyasha would not even hesitate to put Tommy in a physical ordeal by locking him in camel clutches, torture racks, power slams, and Full Nelsons. In retaliation, Tommy would deliver Inuyasha a grand barrage of hammer fists, double axe handles, shin kicks, and roundhouse kicks. Even with all the attacks they inflict on each other, they would never flinch. Should any felon attempt to do physical harm against Tommy and Inuyasha, they would shower loads of pain on them. When it comes to Inuyasha’s tenure as a pro-wrestler with a background in Pankration, Kapu Kuialua, Combat Sambo, and Ssireum, Tommy would always cheer for him to triumph in any arena or ring he finds himself in against more physically formidable opponents. Tommy and Inuyasha are truly unstoppable. Both Tommy and Inuyasha also have older brothers, David in Tommy’s case and Sesshoumaru in Inuyasha’s case. While David’s and Tommy’s brotherly bond is harmonious, Sesshoumaru’s and Inuyasha’s brotherly bond is fraught with challenges and tension. Nevertheless, David and Sesshoumaru would see just how rich and profound Tommy’s and Inuyasha’s friendship, let alone brotherhood, truly is. Tommy is even brave enough to stand up to Sesshoumaru and speak his mind without flinching in terms of how he will always be there to protect Inuyasha, be the best brother of another mother he can be, and forbid Sesshoumaru from harming Inuyasha. David can only agree with Tommy, as he appeals to Sesshoumaru to think long and hard about his treatment of Inuyasha. Tommy’s unquestionable staunchness to Inuyasha and David’s support for Tommy’s and Inuyasha’s brotherhood earn Sesshoumaru’s respect and encouragement. Therefore, David expresses how proud Tommy is for standing up for Inuyasha, while Sesshoumaru encourages Tommy to stick by Inuyasha’s side as his closest friend. I mentioned earlier that Tommy would be the Uncle Phil to Inuyasha’s Will Smith, and their bond approaches Uncle Phil’s and Will’s father-son relationship. This makes Tommy the unconditionally loving and fiercely protective older brother figure to Inuyasha’s impulsively rowdy and fiercely charged-up younger brother. They would always be there to protect each other from harm and strife and remain unquestionably loyal to each other. Inuyasha would look up to Tommy because of his heroism, courage, strong leadership, and unparalleled combat prowess. Tommy would encourage Inuyasha as a fighter and as a person because of his super strength, heroic leadership, Olympic-level fortitude, and muscular virility. There is no doubt that Tommy’s and Inuyasha’s brotherly bond would see them grow from strength to strength. Tommy would do his best to put Inuyasha in the straight and narrow even when they clash heads. Inuyasha would also learn a lot from Tommy while also doing his part to encourage him as a fellow warrior. Together, Tommy and Inuyasha are always going to remain by each other’s side. 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, everybody. Inuyasha from Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise. Tommy Oliver from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, and Power Rangers Turbo belongs to Saban and Toei.

You would have an amazing friendship brewing between these two Red Ranger groups. Yes, my love for “Forever Red” remains truly untested, and there is no better way to show it than this grand friendship that stands the test of time.
