This “What if Character Replaces Character in this Scene” meme template originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who believes that it is a wonderful idea for Tommy to call out the four losers known as Miroku, Sango, Kagome Higurashi, and Shippou and their hypocritical falsehood toward Inuyasha. This is also considering that Tommy calls the four losers out akin to how Uncle Phil does a similar deed to Lou Smith from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’s “Papa’s Got a Brand New Excuse.” Sit back, relax, and revel in the first part of this feels trip. I always insist that Inuyasha’s 100th episode “The Truth Behind the Nightmare: Battle in the Forest of Sorrow” still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth the more I watch it. Every time I watch this episode, I am constantly reminded of how Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou should have developed a higher sense of compassion and understanding toward Inuyasha. Instead, they still treated him like nothing more than their pathetic lapdog, even after their lives were in great peril under Garamaru’s poisoned cocoons. The epilogue encapsulates everything I despise, loathe, and abhor about Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou. They were nothing more than shiftless liars, vile manipulators, and abject pieces of toxic waste toward Inuyasha, considering that they had taken him for granted. I do not even blame Inuyasha for being overly suspicious of those four losers’ hypocrisy and thinly veiled falseness toward him. Then again, fans of Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou are also to blame for being way too blind to notice the red flags and just ignorantly cruising along with them being toxic allies to Inuyasha. If there is one man who can try to set these four lying hypocrites straight, it has to be none other than the Power Rangers legend himself, Tommy Oliver. Yes, Tommy possessing the moniker of the greatest Power Ranger ever may appear to be quite an amazing stretch. However, considering his growth from the new dude to Rita’s malevolently brainwashed pawn to redeemed hero to full-time hero to leader to mentor, he had quite the odyssey to endure during his long tenure as a Power Ranger. From being the Green Dragonzord Ranger to the White Tigerzord Ranger to the Red Zeo Ranger to the first Red Turbo Ranger in the Saban era as well as the Black Dino Thunder Ranger in the Disney era, Tommy has seen it all and done it all. He may be a hero on his own accord, but he could never have achieved being a hero without the help of his great friends. Unlike the four losers known as Miroku the cheating monk, Sango the stupid demon slayer, Kagome the crappy main heroine, and Shippou the terrible excuse of a Kitsune, Tommy is always true to himself and to the people he holds nearest and dearest to him. I can imagine Tommy being the Uncle Phil to Miroku’s, Sango’s, Kagome’s, and Shippou’s Lou because they represent different sides of seeking pro-social relationships. Tommy would never make lame excuses to his comrades, friends, and allies, thus sticking to his word and never giving up on them. Miroku’s, Sango’s, Kagome’s, and Shippou’s bond with Inuyasha may appear to be defeating Naraku, but they constantly treat Inuyasha like their lapdog without giving him space to be himself. What is worse is that Kagome’s constant sit commands are enabled by Miroku, Sango, and Shippou because Inuyasha does not heed her beck and call, and they think that he is two-timing with Kikyou. I have already made it clear that neither Miroku nor Sango nor Kagome nor Shippou understood the depth of Inuyasha’s pain, loss, and trauma of losing Kikyou before she was unfairly resurrected. Furthermore, Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou are incapable fighters and fail miserably without Inuyasha coming into the rescue. Tommy will definitely have his work cut out for him in putting those four losers in their place. Tommy calling out Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou occurs in Episode 100’s epilogue. As opposed to the four phonies claiming that they are grateful for Inuyasha for “saving them” and about to walk away, Tommy takes Inuyasha to the side to release him of those horrible Beads of Subjugation. Once that is done, the showdown between Inuyasha’s true friend almost like a big brother against the four hypocrites begins. Tommy does not need to be a super genius to understand that Inuyasha has endured a lot of physical and psychological pain. Yes, Inuyasha is a dog Yokai warrior with an attitude, but even he cannot escape the abuse Kagome inflicts on him and the enabling that Miroku, Sango, and Shippou partake in. He saved their butts, but they still choose to treat him like their lapdog. Therefore, Tommy did the unthinkable. He tore off the Beads of Subjugation from Inuyasha for good and for all. “Wow! That is amazing, Tommy.” “Don’t mention it, Inuyasha. I’m just trying to help.” “Well, thanks a lot, man.” Finally having those accursed Beads of Subjugation removed off of Inuyasha is like a millstone gone from his life for good. It is thanks to Tommy’s help that he can feel free. He did not ask for it to begin with, but he can sense that Tommy’s intentions are genuine, pure, and noble aside from being a formidable warrior himself. Now, all Tommy must to do is to reprimand Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou for constantly lying and deceiving Inuyasha. “You’re not gonna do those combos on them are you, Tommy? Because I don’t wanna miss that!” Tommy sighs, “No, Inuyasha. Not at this moment.” Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Shippou are about to walk away from Tommy and Inuyasha. They think they could get away with giving Inuyasha a half-hearted token of gratitude for saving them from Garamaru’s clutches. However, Tommy is not having any of it. Just as the four deceitful liars are about to depart, Tommy is ready to give them his ultimatum. “Stay where…

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 in the Inurangers version of “Forever Red.” Sit back, relax, and revel in the Inurangers’ version of “Forever Red’s” final scene. Here is another iconic scene from Power Rangers Wild Force’s “Forever Red” that I hold dearly to my heart, mind, and soul, which is the epilogue. Not only is this scene very touching, but it is also a culmination of everything that the Saban-era Red Rangers endured in their ordeal against the Machine Empire. Since this final scene is the Toonami-Era Inurangers version, instead of the nine remaining Red Rangers saying their farewells to each other, it is all eleven Red Inurangers doing so. With that said, it is time for the Red Inurangers of the Toonami Era to bid each other until the next time after their battle against the Demon Beast Empire. It was an arduous battle that all eleven Red Inurangers endured against the Demon Beast Empire. Ippo, the newest addition to the Red Inurangers, came a long way in proving himself worthy as a warrior and as a leader in defeating Serpenterra with some help from his ten Red Inuranger comrades. Now that the Megaship has landed back on Earth, it is time for Inuyasha to bid farewell to his ten comrades, as all eleven Red Inurangers come together one last time before parting ways. Inuyasha addressed his ten comrades, “Thank you, Inurangers. You’ve done a great service to the entire universe.” Toran responded, “Don’t mention it, old friend.” Toran, Ryuichi, Ippo, Ichiro, Baki, Ryoma, Mika, Inuyasha, Alexander, Takeshi, and Kiibo place their right fists in the front. Alexander, Kiibo, Takeshi, Toran, Ryuichi, Ippo, Ichiro, Baki, Mika, Ryoma, and Inuyasha nod their heads in acknowledgment. Inuyasha then states, “I guess it’s time to say goodbye again. May the power protect you all.” All eleven Red Inurangers deliver a gentle fist-bump before Inuyasha departs. “Wow. So, that was Inuyasha. He really is the greatest Inuranger.” Ippo says in awe, as Inuyasha saunters away. Ryuichi, Toran, Alexander, Mika, Ryoma, Ichiro, Kiibo, Takeshi, and Baki laugh and guffaw at Ippo’s starry-eyed amazement and claim of Inuyasha as the greatest Inuranger ever. Ippo, on the other hand, is befuddled, “What did I say?” Ryuichi comments, “Well, I wouldn’t go that far. After all, I was the one who replaced him when he and his friends were turned into kids.” Toran retorts, “Are you kidding me? He may have been the one doing all the work, but he was also kissing on Ayame at the juice bar.” Ichiro replies, “All right, at least his attire is regulation, right?” Baki boasts, “Yeah, my Q-Rex would eat his Tyrannosaurus Zord for lunch! Yeah!” Ryoma interrupts, “But I discovered new galaxies.” Kiibo chimes in, “Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, I changed history. So, why does he have a fan club and I don’t?” Takeshi adds, “And I’ve been doing my share in keeping Time Force in tip-top shape. So, where’s my share of the accolades?” Mika demands, “Hey, I saved two worlds! What about that?!” Alexander finally concludes, “Wait, wait, wait, wait! Did I ever tell you guys about the time I got baked in a giant pizza?” Ryoma, Mika, Baki, Ichiro, Toran, Ryuichi, Takeshi, Kiibo, and Ippo respond, “Yeah, yeah!” The ten remaining Red Inurangers go their separate ways. I hope you all enjoyed the Inurangers’ version of “Forever Red’s” final scene, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and may the power protect you, everybody. Inuyasha and Toran from Inuyasha belong to Rumiko Takahashi and Sunrise. Ryuichi Hayami, Alexander Volg Zangief, Ichiro Miyata, Takeshi Sendo, and Ippo Makunouchi from Hajime no Ippo belong to George Morikawa and Madhouse. Mika Seido from Geneshaft belongs to Kazuki Akane, Satelight, and Studio Gazelle. Ryoma Sakamoto from Shura no Toki belongs to Masatoshi Kawahara, Shin Misawa, Media Factory, and Studio Comet. Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa from Shootfighter Tekken or High School Exciting Story: Tough belongs to Tetsuya Saruwatari and Anime International Company.

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…
This edited screenshot collage is dedicated to everybody who is a fan of Power Rangers and anime, especially when it comes to my Inurangers AU headcanon and “Forever Red” from Power Rangers Wild Force. Sit back, relax, and rejoice in the glory the Red Rangers have to offer. You have read all of my previous submissions regarding the Toonami-Era Inurangers Teams, especially the line-up that I have become completely satisfied with. You have recognized that I have given special emphasis to the Red Rangers of my Inurangers AU headcanon. Now, it is time to let all of what I have been cultivating be thoroughly shown. From left to right are the following Red Inurangers assuming their real-life Red Power Rangers counterparts as well as their suits: Inuyasha the Red Tyrannosaurus Ranger version of Tommy Oliver from Mighty Morphin’ Inurangers Ryuichi Hayami the Red Ronin Ranger version of Aurico from Mighty Ronin Inurangers Toran the Red Zeo Ranger version of Jason Lee Scott from Inurangers Zeo Alexander Volg Zangief the Red Turbo Ranger version of TJ Johnson from Inurangers Turbo Mika Seido the Red Space Ranger version of Andros from Inurangers in Space Ryoma Sakamoto the Red Galaxy Ranger version of Leo Corbett from Inurangers Lost Galaxy Ichiro Miyata the Red Lightspeed Rescue Ranger version of Carter Grayson from Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa the Red Time Force Ranger version of Wesley “Wes” Collins from Inurangers Time Force Takeshi Sendo the Red Shadow Time Force Ranger version of Alex Drake from Inurangers Time Force Baki Hanma the Quantum Time Force Ranger version of Eric Myers from Inurangers Time Force Ippo Makunouchi the Red Wild Force Ranger version of Cole Evans from Inurangers Wild Force This line-up of Red Inurangers and their real-life Saban-era Red Ranger counterparts demonstrates the similarities found in each of them and the creative liberties I took in making all of this come to fruition. The fact that Toran and Mika are the only two female Red Rangers in my Inurangers AU headcanon demonstrates that anybody can be a Power Ranger or Inuranger, and it is not just girls taking on the usual Blue, Yellow, and/or Pink Ranger costumes. It also shows that there is no reason why a mighty war-lady like Toran and an energetic bruiser gal like Mika cannot be Red Rangers and lead their team with courage. Toran and Mika are thoroughly welcome additions to the Red Ranger club, and their courage and toughness are great traits to possess for them to thrive in their roles as leaders and heroines. Some people wonder why on earth, Inuyasha the Red Mighty Morphin Inuranger is paired up with Tommy, while Toran the Red Zeo Inuranger is paired up with Jason? Should Inuyasha be the one to remain with Jason and Toran with Tommy? Hear me out, please. Yes, Inuyasha is supposed to be the Red Tyrannosaurus Ranger version of Jason Lee Scott. Yes, Toran is supposed to be the Red Zeo Ranger version of Tommy Oliver. However, those are the main arrangements I have in my Inurangers AU headcanon and are just surface-level attributes to what they are really defined by. After all, Inuyasha’s long-staying legacy as an Inuranger makes him more akin to Tommy, while Toran’s conventional take-charge leadership makes her more akin to Jason. It should never be forgotten that Inuyasha, aside from possessing Jason’s leadership skills and virile strength, also possesses Tommy’s long-lasting staying power as an Inuranger, coveted prestige as the greatest Ranger ever, powerful combat prowess, and acclaim as the face of the Inurangers. Furthermore, Inuyasha has also been leading his team for three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers, one pair of team-up episodes in Inurangers Zeo, and the epic final team-up in Inurangers in Space, thus making him the perfect candidate for leading his fellow Red Inurangers in their battle against the Demon Beast Empire. On the other hand, Toran may have possessed Tommy’s flawless combat prowess and peerless combination of power, timing, and agility, but she also possesses Jason’s rough edge as a lancer when he returns to join his fellow Red Rangers in their battle against the Machine Empire. While Inuyasha is supposed to take after Jason and Toran take after Tommy, Inuyasha truly inherits Tommy’s acclaim and evergreen legacy as the greatest Red Ranger ever just as much as Toran inherits Jason’s rugged edge and toughness. The rest of the Red Inurangers also have quirks that make them similar and different from their real-life Red Ranger counterparts. Ryuichi as the Red Ronin Ranger has way more to do than Aurico the Red Alien Ranger because he demonstrates strong combat prowess, leadership as his own fighter, and handsome virility while also possessing Rocky DeSantos’s impulsiveness. Alexander as the Red Turbo Inuranger possesses a cooler head and more collected attitude than the charismatically athletic TJ. However, his ability to think quickly on his feet and fight with valor can make TJ salute him. Mika as the Red Space Inuranger is more hands-on in combat and rougher around the edges than the more reserved and analytical Andros, but they both possess fiercely loyal hearts. Ryoma as the Red Galaxy Ranger may demonstrate more nobility and decorum than the more rambunctious Leo, but both possess virility, courage, and abundant honor as warriors and as men. Ichiro as the Red Lightspeed Rescue Ranger is resolutely steelier in his goals than the more charismatically heroic Carter, but both of them possess an ever-burning ambition to better themselves in their duties. Kiibo as the Red Time Force Ranger is way more impulsive, head-on, and furiously determined as a fighter than the more rational and understanding Wes, but both of them are the heroic light of their teams. Takeshi as the Red Shadow Time Force Ranger is more rambunctious, rowdier, and rougher than the more conservatively by-the-book Alex while also possessing Rocky’s impulsiveness and friendliness, thus making him a more likable version of Alex. Nevertheless, both Takeshi and Alex possess fierce determination as combatants with…
Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. I have been excited to create this line-up ever since I have been watching and re-watching “Forever Red” from Power Rangers Wild Force. It has been my greatest endeavor ever since I have finally ended up being satisfied with my arrangements with the Toonami-Era Inurangers teams. I have also been reiterating that the Toonami-Era Inurangers version of “Forever Red” has nine male Red Rangers and two female Red Rangers, thus showing that anybody can be a Red Ranger. Now, it is time for me to tackle the line-up of Toonami-Era Red Inurangers in their version of “Forever Red.” Ever since day one of creating my Inurangers headcanon, I already knew who was going to lead the Toonami-Era Red Inurangers in “Forever Red”, especially since this special celebrated ten seasons of Inurangers during the Toonami era from 2000 to 2006. He is none other than Inuyasha the original Red Inuranger who controls the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord, the Tyrannosaurus-Red Dragon Thunderzord, and the Red Ape Ninjazord during his Mighty Morphin Inurangers tenure. For three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers, one team-up during Inurangers Zeo, and one grander team-up during Inurangers in Space, he has lived up to Tommy Oliver’s title and legacy of being the greatest Ranger ever and Jason Lee Scott’s strong brand of leadership. Therefore, just like Tommy in “Forever Red,” Inuyasha leads the Toonami-era Red Inurangers to battle against the Demon Beast Empire consisting of Chokyukai, Suzaku, Genbu, Byakko, and Seiryu from Inuyasha, who are also the Inurangers version of the remaining Machine Empire bent on resurrecting Serpenterra. Furthermore, Kimiaki Shirai and Masayuki Haitani from Love Hina, who are the Inurangers’ version of Bulk and Skull, give the phone to Inuyasha for him to assemble the rest of the Red Rangers. Ippo the Red Wild Force Inuranger would even be astounded at Inuyasha’s presence and legacy as the Greatest Inuranger ever by the end of “Forever Red.” Despite Inuyasha being technically akin to Jason Lee Scott in terms of leadership, it is Toran who inherits Jason’s rougher edge and his iconic line of the team not being complete without her as Inuyasha’s replacement. She would even call Ippo the rookie of the team. Yes, Toran is the Red Zeo Inuranger just like Tommy is during his tenure in Power Rangers Zeo. However, she acts more like Jason in the sense that she is the lancer with an edge in this all-Red Ranger team-up. Much like how Jason jokes about Tommy kissing Kimberly in the juice bar, Toran also jokes about Inuyasha saying that he may have done all the work as the original Inuranger leader, but he was also kissing Ayame after their missions. Toran works greatly as a lancer to Inuyasha’s main hero/leader/mentor figure because of how well they can bounce off of each other as fellow Red Inurangers. Inuyasha’s experience as the main hero and leader and Toran’s edge as the lancer complement each other perfectly. You might have also recognized that there is a total of eleven Red Rangers. This is because I have also given the Inurangers version of Alex Drake, Takeshi Sendo from Hajime no Ippo, a very important role in this version of “Forever Red.” I also see Takeshi as a combination of Rocky’s lancer nature during his tenure as the second Mighty Morphin Red Ranger and Alex’s sternness during his tenure as the original Red Time Force Ranger. With those attributes combined, Takeshi ends up being a worthy addition to the “Forever Red” line-up, and both Rocky and Alex are vindicated in the sense that he gets to join his fellow Red Rangers as the Red Shadow Time Force Ranger. Thus, Takeshi can still work wonderfully with Kiibo as the Red Time Force Ranger and Baki as the Quantum Ranger from the same series. With that said, you know what time it is. It’s Morphin’ Time! Shift into Turbo! Let’s Rocket! Go Galactic! Lightspeed Rescue! Time for Time Force! Quantum Power! Wild Access! Red Rangers unite! Forever Red: The Toonami-Era Red Inurangers Team-Up (2006) Inuyasha, the original Red Inuranger, has assembled his fellow Red Inurangers for a mission: to stop Chokyukai, Suzaku, Genbu, Byakko, and Seiryu from resurrecting Serpenterra. Ippo the Red Wild Force Inuranger and newcomer to the mission is overwhelmed by the presence of previous Red Inurangers who have also fought bravely to save the world, with some of them being leaders of their respective teams. There is going to be a lot of high-octane action and excitement when the eleven Toonami-Era Red Inurangers join forces and protect the world from the clutches of the Demon Beast Empire.

Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything from the early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. I have never been this excited to cover the Toonami-Era Inuranger team-ups during the Post-Zordon era because this has been in the back of my mind for a long time. Ever since I straightened out my Toonami-Era Inurangers teams to the lineups I was satisfied with, I felt more motivated to make the team-ups come to fruition. Now that I touched upon the Zordon-Era/Toonami-Era Inurangers team-ups, it is time for me to have a go at the Post-Zordon-Era/Toonami-Era Inurangers team-ups from the Inurangers Lost Galaxy version of “To the Tenth Power” to the Inurangers Wild Force version of “Reinforcements from the Future Parts 1 and 2.” Before you ask, what about the Toonami-Era Inurangers version of “Forever Red”? What about that lineup? That will be a separate entry because I would love to go more in-depth with it. Furthermore, I have an interesting arrangement with my Toonami-Era Inurangers version of “Forever Red.” I also want to make this disclaimer, especially for Inurangers Lost Galaxy. For those of you who have been reading the Toonami-Era Inurangers team line-ups, you might have recognized that there are already seven Galaxy Rangers, specifically where there are two Pink Rangers. If Power Rangers Turbo could get away with two Blue Rangers and Power Rangers Time Force could get away with two, technically three, Red Rangers, I see no reason why Power Rangers Lost Galaxy could not get away with two Pink Rangers. This is true when Kendrix and Karone both don their Pink Galaxy Ranger garbs. Fortunately, both Megumi Minami and Maya Orihara, who are the Inurangers Lost Galaxy versions of Kendrix Morgan and Karone respectively, can coexist as two different Pink Galaxy Rangers. Megumi is the Pink Galaxy Heavenly Seraph Ranger complete with wings on her back and heels like a combination of Hermes and a seraph. If Kendrix had managed to maintain her Galaxy powers in the afterlife, she would have ended up in that Ranger suit, which would have increased her overall power of heavenly light. Her costume design rich in celestial symbolism serves as a counterbalance to the earthier, more bull-like design of the Magna Defender. On the other hand, Maya retains her regular Pink Galaxy Ranger suit from the beginning, as her tenure as Dark Witch Maya is over by the end of Inurangers in Space. Therefore, Maya’s current tenure as the Pink Galaxy Ranger is her penance from the beginning until the end after her time as Dark Witch Maya and being especially redeemed by Mika the Red Space Inuranger. I hope this manages to clear the air without giving way too much away. Let us not waste any time, and get these Post-Zordon-Era, let alone the remainder of the Toonami-Era, Inuranger team-ups cracking. Go galactic! Lightspeed Rescue! Titanium Power! Time for Time Force! Quantum Power! Wild Access! Inurangers Lost Galaxy: “To the Fourteenth Power” The Space/Galaxy Inurangers Team-Up (2003) The seven Psycho Inurangers consisting of Rizelle from Chrono Crusade as Psycho Red, Kouga from Inuyasha as Psycho Green, Hiten from Inuyasha as Psycho Silver, Bankotsu from Inuyasha as Psycho Black, Lyra from Fullmetal Alchemist as Psycho Blue, Shader from Chrono Crusade as Psycho Yellow, and Ryomo Shimei from Ikki Tousen as Psycho Pink strike again. Maya’s initial creations during her time as Dark Witch Maya are resurrected by Sousuke Aizen from Bleach, the Inurangers version of Deviot. She is horrified to know that the Psycho Inurangers have been resurrected and does her part to stop them, just as Ryoma and Mika try to destroy Rizelle. Even Ryomo does her part in taunting Maya for her errors. Just as the seven Psycho Inurangers are about to decimate the seven Galaxy Inurangers, the seven Space Inurangers join in the battle. In this version, even Mitsuhide and Tsume participate to make this team-up amount to fourteen space-themed Inurangers.

Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. High off the recent joy of my thoroughly improved version of the Toonami-Era Inurangers teams, I have finally come to do what I have always wanted to accomplish. I am talking about the Toonami-Era Inurangers team-ups. Because all of the Inurangers teams have seven main rangers, the team-ups shall be divided accordingly, as I can only fit in team-ups consisting of fourteen. Much like the real-life Saban-Era Power Rangers series, the team-ups here shall be divided into the Zordon-Era ranger team-ups and the Post-Zordon-Era ranger team-ups. Therefore, I will commence with the Mighty Morphin Inurangers/Cloaked Pilot team-up and end with the Inurangers in Space version of the two-part “Countdown to Destruction.” In terms of the ranger line-up, it is the usual arrangement of the Red Ranger, the Sixth Ranger, the Seventh Ranger, the Black/Blue Ranger, the Blue/Green Ranger, the Yellow Ranger, and the Pink Ranger. However, the first team-up has the special introduction of a certain Cloaked Pilot added into the mix. Without further ado, it’s morphin’ time! Shift into turbo! Let’s rocket! Mighty Morphin Inurangers Season 3: A Friend in Need Parts 1 to 3 (2000) The first team-up sees the main seven Mighty Morphin Inurangers consisting of Inuyasha, Shuran, Sesshoumaru, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran being assigned to the Milky Way, as it is under attack by the Inurangers’ universe’s version of Lord Dregon, Admiral Gunter Prozen and Hiltz. This is the team-up where they encounter Prince Rudolph Zeppelin III and help him fight against Prozen, Hiltz, and their cronies. Unlike the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 3 first set of three-part episodes where Kimberly gets the flu, Shunran does not get sick with the flu and joins her fellow Inurangers all while coming back to earth to do battle with the monster of the day. Furthermore, Prince Rudolph has a superhero alter-ego called the Cloaked Pilot, which is the Inurangers’ universe’s version of the Masked Rider. Inuyasha from Inuyasha the 18-year-old Red Tyrannosaurus Ranger version of Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver voiced by Richard Ian Cox Shuran from Inuyasha the 18-year-old Green Dragonzord Ranger version of Tommy Oliver and Rocky DeSantos voiced by Scott Logie Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha the 19-year-old White Tigerzord Ranger version of David Trueheart and Tommy Oliver voiced by David Kaye Hakkaku from Inuyasha the 17-year-old Black Mastodon Ranger version of Zack Taylor and Adam Park voiced by Alistair Abell Ginta from Inuyasha the 17-year-old Blue Triceratops Ranger version of Billy Cranston and Adam Park voiced by Paul Dobson Ayame from Inuyasha the 15-year-old Yellow Sabertoothed Tiger Ranger version of Trini Kwan and Aisha Campbell voiced by Natalie Walters Shunran from Inuyasha the 14-year-old Pink Pterodactyl Ranger version of Kimberly Ann Hart and Katherine Hillard voiced by Jocelyne Loewen Prince Rudolph Zeppelin III the 11-year-old Cloaked Pilot version of Prince Dex of Edenoi aka The Masked Rider voiced by Elinor Holt The Entirety of Mighty Ronin Inurangers (2001) This is the ten-episode Mighty Ronin Inurangers saga after Urasue and Naraku turn Inuyasha, Shuran, Sesshoumaru, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran into children. As the seven Yokai warriors with attitude cannot morph into their Inuranger suits, a new set of Inurangers come to fight evil in their stead. They are the Ronin Inurangers from the planet Mithril. Some select episodes also have the young Inuyasha maintain his leadership role as the Ronin Inurangers are fighting monsters and protecting civilians as well as assuring his teammates of their next journey. While the Ronin Inurangers of Mithril fight against Urasue’s and Naraku’s demons and monsters, the Mighty Morphin Inuranger Kids search for the Zeo Crystals as well as new friends to become a new set of Inurangers. Ryuichi Hayami from Hajime no Ippo the 18-year-old Red Ronin Inuranger version of Aurico voiced by Nathan Smythe Inuyasha from Inuyasha the 9-year-old Red Tyrannosaurus Ranger Kid version of Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver voiced by Richard Ian Cox Kaname Chidori from Full Metal Panic the 17-year-old Green Ronin Inuranger version of Dulcea voiced by Luci Christian Shuran from Inuyasha the 9-year-old Green Dragonzord Ranger Kid version of Tommy Oliver and Rocky DeSantos voiced by Alex House Teletha “Tessa” Testarossa from Full Metal Panic the 17-year-old White Ronin Inuranger version of Delphine voiced by Hilary Haag Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha the 10-year-old White Tigerzord Ranger Kid version of David Trueheart and Tommy Oliver voiced by Jason Marsden Mario Musicanova from Geneshaft the 18-year-old Black Ronin Inuranger version of Corcus voiced by Crispin Freeman Hakkaku from Inuyasha the 8-year-old Black Mastodon Ranger Kid version of Zack Taylor and Adam Park voiced by Jonathan Malen Hiroto Amagiwa from Geneshaft the 17-year-old Blue Ronin Inuranger version of Cestro voiced by Dominic Armato Ginta from Inuyasha the 8-year-old Blue Triceratops Ranger Kid version of Billy Cranston and Adam Park voiced by Noah Reid Mizuki Inaba from Full Metal Panic the 16-year-old Yellow Ronin Inuranger version of Tideus voiced by Mandy Clark Ayame from Inuyasha the 6-year-old Yellow Sabertoothed Tiger Ranger Kid version of Trini Kwan and Aisha Campbell voiced by Natalie Walters Remmy Levy-Strauss from Geneshaft the 15-year-old Pink Ronin Inuranger version of Cestria voiced by Brianne Siddall Shunran from Inuyasha the 5-year-old Pink Pterodactyl Ranger Kid version of Kimberly Ann Hart and Katherine Hillard voiced by Jocelyne Loewen Inurangers Zeo: The Mighty Morphin Inurangers and Inurangers Zeo Team-Up (2001) As I have already established in my Inurangers AU headcanon, every Inuranger season shall have different characters for the different ranger roles. Unlike Zeo, where the Mighty Morphin cast plus Tanya Sloan continue being involved, the Mighty Morphin Inurangers and Zeo Inurangers are completely different people. This gets to the point where the Mighty Morphin Inuranger Kids and the Inuranger Zeo Kids turn back into teenagers and young adults, thanks to using the regenerator powered by the Mighty Morphin Inurangers’ power coins and Zeo Crystals. After that, they have their…
a valentines look at love between the classes. no, not science and math!
Happy Valentine’s Month and Lunar New Year, everybody! Antoni here with some wonderful news for you. Within one month and three weeks, I have finally hit the 2,000 YouTube subscriber mark. I now have 2,004 subscribers, and I am grateful for your support and encouragement. Since December of 2023, one video became last year’s hit: my “Saban-Era Blue Ranger Morph Attempts” video. This was a compilation video of the individual Saban-Era Blue Ranger morph attempt videos from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to Power Rangers Wild Force. I enjoyed the experience to my heart’s content. I enjoyed it so much that I also used the same videos to make a ranking video of Saban-Era Power Rangers seasons from which season I tolerated at best, Power Rangers Turbo, to which season won the gold medal as the best Power Rangers season of all time in my eyes, Power Rangers Time Force. They were also my contributions not only to Red Ribbon Reviewers 2023 but also to celebrate the Power Rangers franchise’s 30th anniversary when Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 1 first aired on Fox Kids on August 28, 1993. Therefore, thank you to all of the Power Rangers devotees for tuning in to those videos, giving them love, and joining me in my YouTube journey. My fellow Power Rangers devotees are not the only ones who are worthy of gratitude and love. I also want to thank my family, friends, university colleagues, fellow online reviewers, fellow artists, fellow actors, fellow voice actors, fellow singers, fellow music aficionados, fellow filmmakers, and fellow writers for their constant inspiration for me to keep on growing as an artist and a person. Thank you all to my wonderful 2,004 subscribers, and I hope you all have a lovely Valentine’s month as well as a prosperous Lunar New Year. https://www.youtube.com/@operaanimelover369
