Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. Be prepared to don those nostalgia goggles once again, everybody, because I am going to take you back to the years where my fictionalised version of Saban’s Power Rangers franchise from August 28, 1993 to August 10, 2002, with the final Saban-Era Power Ranger incarnation Wild Force airing its twenty-sixth episode before moving to Disney, would have aired on Toonami from August 28, 2000 to September 20, 2008. As to be expected, these also include the Inuranger movie tie-ins much like their real-life counterparts in the forms of 1995’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers the Movie and 1997’s Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. Strap in for a morphenomenal ride back to your childhoods, fellow 90s to early 2000s friends, and stay glued to your television screens with some popcorn . This will mark the last time I am ever going to redo this list of what I would call the Toonami Era of the Inurangers franchise, which is the Saban Era of Power Rangers franchises’s fictionalised counterpart. It is not because I do not want to do it anymore, but because I love the Saban Era of the Power Rangers even with some of its gaping flaws and moments of campiness, and, of course, I also love anime with a passion. Even looking back at the previous attempts of making the Toonami-Era Inurangers teams list, I did not know what I was thinking when assigning certain characters these particular rangers. For instance, the fact that I made Kyuzo from Samurai 7 the Inuranger version of Cole Evans of Wild Force was a decision I regretted, but I have learned from this experience, and I would gladly recast Kyuzo as a seventh ranger in Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue and reassign the Cole Evans role to none other than Ippo Makunouchi from Hajime no Ippo. Speaking of Hajime no Ippo and recasting, there will also be some recasts done, including having Ichiro Miyata be the Inurangers Turbo version of TJ Johnson among other decisions that shall gladly be rectified. Nevertheless, this is still going to be a whole lot of fun because at least they are in their right roles, with select entries still maintaining their right casting. Ever since re-evaluating and re-organising the Toonami-era Inurangers teams, I have also become a lot stricter in terms of one cast of seven members per incarnation. As I stated before, I am not going by the real-life Super Sentai/Power Rangers franchise of having mostly five to eventually six members per incarnation but a total of seven members, for the colours of red, green, white, black, blue, yellow, and pink shall remain intact as the primary Inuranger colours, although incarnations such as In Space, Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, and Wild Force would mix up the colour scheme. For instance, Mighty Morphin Inurangers Seasons 1 until 3 will still have the same cast of seven rangers, while Zeo and subsequent seasons would have entirely new casts of seven rangers, although there will be some members of Inurangers Turbo who are going to end up in the In Space incarnation. Therefore, the strict rule of seven members per Inurangers incarnation prevails. I would also like to have a word about composite and decomposite characters because this is something I could have addressed a little bit more verbosely when I was doing these Inurangers lists. Because there are seven members per Inurangers incarnation in total, there will be occasions where the traits of certain characters would also be inhabited by the characters I have chosen to be the specific colour of Inuranger. This especially holds the most weight in Mighty Morphin Inurangers, but is also true for Inurangers In Space, Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue, and Inurangers Time Force to a certain extent. For instance, Sesshoumaru the White Mighty Morphin Inuranger and Shuran the Green Mighty Morphin Inuranger are decomposite characters of Tommy Oliver’s tenure as the Green Ranger from MMPR Seasons 1 to 2 and the White Ranger from MMPR Seasons 2 to 3, with the former leaning towards more on Tommy Oliver’s entire persona and the latter bearing most traits from Tommy’s clone/”twin” Tom from “Return of the Green Ranger”. Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran are going to receive the composite character treatment, and you will find out which composite character combinations suit them the most. So, do not expect any Peace Conferences or International Gymnastics deals or what have you to occur in any of these instances, especially with what specifically happened to Walter Emanuel Jones, Thuy Trang, and Austin St. John during their tenure on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Besides, the less said about what happened during their time with payment and their demand for unionisation the better because that is quite the can of worms several Power Rangers fans could never shake off. There will also be instances where certain allies to the Power Rangers in canon would find themselves being rangers themselves as embodied by the chosen characters, such as the likes of Billy the former Blue Mighty Morphin Power Ranger from Zeo as the White Gold Ranger, Alex Drake the first Red Time Force Ranger joining in the team as the Crimson Time Ranger, Ms. Angela Fairweather from Lightspeed Rescue participating as the Chromium Lightspeed Rescue Ranger, and Princess Shayla from Wild Force becoming more active as the Emerald Deer Ranger all embodied by the characters I have chosen for them. They will essentially contribute far more than any viewer or hardcore Power Rangers let alone Super Sentai fan can ever bargain for. Additionally, there are also some mixes as to which character I would assign for which specific ranger, especially since I would assign Toran from Inuyasha as the first female Red Inuranger in Inurangers Zeo with Mika Seido from Geneshaft as the second female Red Inuranger for In Space following suit, Botan from YuYu Hakusho as the first…

Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. I hope you have a bowl of cereal, a nice plate of bacon and eggs, and a glass of orange juice ready with you because this would make you feel a whole more nostalgic once again, given the title. This hopefully marks the final time I am going to make a list of the seven main Inurangers cast from what I would like to call the Toonami Era of 2000 until 2009 as a counterpoint to the real-life Saban Era of Power Rangers from 1993 to 2002. I have even included the two movies that were released during the Saban Era, Inuranger-style, i.e. Mighty Morphin Inurangers the Movie and Turbo: An Inurangers Movie. I did a lot of thinking, rethinking, and re-assessing, and I realised that, despite all the changes I made so far, I was still not satisfied with my prior list because there were some characters I believe deserved to be part of the Inurangers franchise as well as more love. Furthermore, there were some characters that would have made more sense than others in terms of the roles I assigned for them. This also means that there will be cast changes per Inuranger season akin to what is done in the Super Sentai shows, thus having all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers maintain the same seven members, instead of what occurred in real life when the OG Red, Yellow, and Black Rangers portrayed by Austin St John, Thuy Trang, and Walter Emanuel Jones hanging their mantles and passing their roles on to Steve Cardenas, Karan Ashley, and Johnny Yong Bosch, and having Inurangers Zeo with a completely different cast. This is essentially passing down the torch to each new Inuranger group as well as season. With that said, let us get this show on the row. It’s Morphin’ Time! Shift into Turbo! Let’s rocket! Go galactic! Lightspeed Rescue! Time for Time Force! Wild access!

Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s. Antoni here. Ever since I made the cast list of what I would love to call the “Saban” Era of Inurangers for the first time, I thought I was going to be satisfied with it. However, looking back at that former list, I was not entirely happy let alone satisfied with it, as there were some casting choices that could have been more legitimate let alone improved. There were casting choices which were based on me not fully researching on the character enough, which made me inquire to myself, what I was thinking when I made that move. Furthermore, some of the casting choices were based off of either blind nostalgia or just simply not knowing any better. I have also done some reflecting on the “Saban” era of the Inurangers. Much like how its original and real-life Saban-era Power Rangers counterpart aired on Fox Kids from 1993 to 2002, I figured that the Inurangers’ “Saban” era would be called the Toonami Era from 2000 to 2009 because Toonami would be a great Cartoon Network afternoon block for children, teenagers, and the young at heart to see anime characters in spandex fighting evil while also having the occasional PSA that would teach us lessons about discipline, honesty, encouragement, and dedication. Yes, I know the original Toonami ended in October 2008, but just think of this as my personal vindication for the fans who really loved and were passionate about the 1997 to 2008 era of Toonami. Once again the same rule applies for Inurangers in terms of main members, especially when I also list the anime series they originally come from. Unlike its real-life Power Rangers counterparts where there are between five to six main members of their respective groups from Mighty Morphin to Wild Force, there is going to be seven main members in the Inuranger franchise. Why seven, I hear you ask again? Let me remind you that the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers from Seasons 1 to 3, despite Tommy Oliver being the Green Ranger from Seasons 1 to 2 and the White Ranger from Seasons 2 to 3, actually has a total of seven Power Ranger suits, thus following the colour scheme of having a red ranger, a green ranger, a white ranger, a black ranger, a blue ranger, a yellow ranger, and a pink ranger. Member-wise, there will also be some deviations, especially in the later parts of Mighty Morphin Inurangers Seasons 2, all of Mighty Morphin Inurangers Season 3, and the later parts of Inurangers Zeo, as there are going to be a total of eleven members at least in those seasons. Colour-wise, there are also going to be some deviations in In Space, Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, and Wild Force. Finally, and this is something I should have done in the older list, I am also going to list their English voice actors for their respective rangers because I am sure you would love the thought of hearing them say their respective Inuranger morphing time roll calls. With that said, grab your bowl of cereal, plate of bacon and eggs, glass of orange juice, and pieces of fruit, as you sit in front of the television to see your favourite anime heroes in spandex defend the world from all evil. It’s Morphin time! Shift into Turbo! Let’s rocket! Go galactic! Lightspeed rescue! Time for Time Force!

This piece of Inuyasha x Ayame (InuAya), Baki Hanma x Rosé Thomas (BakRosé), Hakkaku x Karan (HakKar), Ginta x Shunran (GinShun), Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa x Winry Rockbell (KiiWin), and Ippo Makunouchi x Maya Orihara (IpMay) fan art is dedicated to Hans G. Beilschmidt aka HerrPotsdam, Vahn Satou aka Banzatou, Hekatia, and Moe-Kai who celebrated their birthdays at least two weeks ago, HughEbdy, Alister aka Ally-Kat312, AKIV707, Marina aka Nevi-M, Sarah Rodriguez aka sadieB798, John Dailey aka Jdailey1991, Kennshou, AlexFireflyZhou, IdunaHayaDesigns, and Yuki-Heiligen who celebrated their birthdays more than a week ago, Karla aka YuiHarunaShinozaki who celebrated her birthday four days ago, and my most beloved Frank-Tilmann Otto who has been my director in a couple of his projects I collaborated with as an actor and who celebrated his birthday a couple of days ago. So, I hope you guys had such magnificent, grand, and beautiful birthdays and I wish you a lot of love, joy, abundance, prosperity, and strength in your lives as artists and as people. Wie wir auf deutsch sagen, ich hoffe ihr hattet großartige, tolle und schöne Geburtstage und ich wünsche euch allen viel Liebe, Freude, Reichtum, Wohlstand und Kraft in euren Leben als Künstler und als Menschen. Como se dice en español, espero que hayaís tenido cumpleaños magnificos, grandes y maravillosos y os deseo mucho amor, alegría, abundancia, prosperidad y fuerza en vuestras vidas como artistas y como personas. This is also dedicated to all of the InuAya, BakRosé, HakKar, GinShun, KiiWin, and IpMay shippers out there. So, sit back, relax, and feel the love and joy with these couples. For those of you who have read my previous written entries, most notably the ones where I talk about my reasons for loving InuAya, BakRosé, HakKar, GinShun, KiiWin, and IpMay as my six most favorite anime OTPs of all time and where I talk about my AU if I had Conan and Zula be the fathers of the gentlemen and Arkon and Ka-Zar be the fathers to the ladies, you would already know that I am a loyal shipper of Inuyasha x Ayame, Baki x Rosé, Hakkaku x Karan, Ginta x Shunran, Kiibo x Winry, and Ippo x Maya. Moreover, we have Inuyasha, Baki, Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo being the strong, handsome husbands that they are complete with well-shaped muscles of steel and their most beloved wives Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya being just as strong as their handsome, sturdy husbands. Let us briefly talk about their relationships, shall we? Individual headcanons for these couples will eventually follow in individual submissions. Inuyasha x Ayame Inuyasha and Ayame are the Northern Yoro Tribe’s strongest warriors and they lead their tribe with a lot of fortitude, courage, and power. Combining Inuyasha’s super strength, especially when it comes to grappling, wrestling, and having posedowns and beatdowns with his foes, with Ayame’s amazing combat prowess, especially when it comes to giving her foes a major beatdown, is certainly a great match made in Nirvana. Behind closed doors, Inuyasha and Ayame would have a lot of exciting moments of intimacy, what with Inuyasha giving Ayame so much pleasure and Ayame soothing Inuyasha from all of the madness in battle. Inuyasha loves Ayame because of her resilience, determination, and dedication to her duty as his wife and Ayame loves Inuyasha because of how super strong he is, how gentle he is around her, and how loyal and loving he is as her husband. It also helps that their progeny prove themselves to be just as strong, tough, and durable as their parents. When all is said and done, Inuyasha and Ayame have a lot of unconditional love for each other thanks to their wonderful chemistry and strong bond. Baki Hanma x Rosé Thomas-Hanma Baki and Rosé are the types of people who love to keep fit and strong in everything they do. Baki’s great involvement in martial arts and bodybuilding and Rosé’s involvement in health and fitness certainly make them a couple no one should ever mess with. In spite of his rough edge, Baki is akin to a huge, soft teddy bear when he is around Rosé because she sees the best in him. Rosé loves how loyal Baki is to her and Baki loves how sweet, kind, and patient Rosé is with him. Therefore, this stoic, brawny gentleman with a heart of gold and this sweet, loving lady with the patience of a saint have a healthy relationship, which is reflected in their wonderful household. Their children are just as tough, strong, and loving as their parents and the dynamics they have with their parents show how much unconditional love there is within their happy home. Hakkaku x Karan Hakkaku and Karan are the Northern Yoro Tribe’s most flexible couple and they show it in spades. Hakkaku is the goofy, lovable strongman to Karan’s focused, determined mistress of stealth and when they are together in battle, their enemies would learn a thing or two about never underestimating their opponents. Being the dynamic couple that they are, Hakkaku and Karan take turns in wearing the pants in this relationship and they show a lot of unconditional tolerance, love, respect, and healthy synergy towards each other. They could even help each other in times of strife. Whenever Hakkaku has his doubts and anxieties, Karan would make him down to earth and assure him that he is strong enough to overcome anything. Whenever Karan has her disappointments, Hakkaku would assure her that it is not the end of the world. Moreover, their children would inherit their quirks and be just as resilient as Hakkaku and Karan combined. Ginta x Shunran Ginta and Shunran are the Northern Yoro Tribe’s most lovable and adorable couple ever, as their love for each other knows no bounds. Ginta is proud to proclaim himself to be Shunran’s knight in shining armor and Shunran loves it when her dashing stud is there for her all the time. There is not a shadow of a doubt that…
Greetings, all ye wonderful fans of Conan the Adventurer, X-Men 1992, Inuyasha, Baki the Grappler, Shootfighter Tekken, Fullmetal Alchemist, and Ultra Maniac, it is I your dear friend Antoni with another written entry. This has been on the back of my mind for quite some time and I have been playing around with this too. I know some of you are going to find this rather crazy but I always asked myself this question. What would happen if Inuyasha, Baki, Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo were raised by Conan and Zula to be their sons? Moreover, what would happen if Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya were raised by Arkon and Ka-Zar to be their daughters? One would get two sets of really epic families and so many excitingly badass moments would occur when these two sets of families are together. In my AU there are two sets of gloriously muscular, tough, rough, big, and strong gay couples in the forms of Conan and Zula being the fathers of Inuyasha, Baki, Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo and Arkon and Ka-Zar being the fathers of Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya. Conan and Zula would be the strong, handsome, tough, rough, warlike gay bodybuilder couple who are the fathers of their barbarian bodybuilder sons Inuyasha, Baki, Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo. Arkon and Ka-Zar would also be the strong, tough, rough, handsome, warlike gay bodybuilder couple who are the fathers of their athletic amazon daughters Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya. As one can tell, the OTPs of my AU with these characters are the following: Conan x Zula Arkon x Ka-Zar Inuyasha x Ayame Baki x Rosé Hakkaku x Karan Ginta x Shunran Kiichi “Kiibo” x Winry Ippo x Maya With that said, let us delve into who these fathers, their children, their grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are. The Big, Strong, Tough, Rough, Muscle Dads of the Bodybuilder Barbarians Conan of Cimmeria Age: 58 Birthday: March 2, 1961 Status: Married to Zula since 1982 Mini Bio: Conan is the main patriarch of his household. As a father, he is authoritative, strict, competitive, and shows a lot of tough love to his sons even when they end up being married and having children of their own. He considers Inuyasha and Baki his most favorite sons because they are not only the eldest two but they are also his best fighters and his most favorite people to work out with. He also loves Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo for being gracious and funny. Being a bodybuilder, wrestler, boxer, martial artist, weightlifter, and fitness expert himself, he makes sure that his sons’, grandchildren’s, and great-grandchildren’s bodies, minds, and spirits are filled with enough discipline, strength, and toughness to beat out any opponent. Even in his old age, he has enough super strength to make his foes cower at his presence. Zula of the Wasai Tribe Age: 58 Birthday: September 3, 1961 Status: Married to Conan since 1982 Mini Bio: Zula is the second patriarch of Conan’s household. To balance Conan’s strictness and authority, he shows compassion, kindness, and nurture to all of his six sons, his daughters-in-law, his grandchildren, his great-grandchildren, and his husband Conan. As much as he is extremely close and loving to his eldest sons, Inuyasha and Baki, he is especially fond of Hakkaku, Ginta, Kiibo, and Ippo for being energetic, tough, and lovable. Much like his husband, Zula is also a bodybuilder, wrestler, boxer, martial artist, weightlifter, and fitness expert. He is even a hunter and an environmentalist who ensures that his progeny stay as fit as they are and respect nature and everything it represents. He and Conan even taught all of his six sons to roar like lions, tigers, and leopards when they are in a fight. Even in his old age, Zula not only has enough super strength to endure the rest of his life but also heaps of vitality. The Big, Strong, Warlike, Brave Muscle Dads of the Athletic Amazons Arkon Age: 57 Birthday: January 3, 1962 Status: Married to Ka-Zar since 1985 Mini Bio: Arkon is the main patriarch of his household complete with his loving husband and beautiful daughters. As a father, Arkon is authoritative, tough, commanding, and surprisingly compassionate to his daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He considers Ayame and Rosé to be his most favorite daughters because of their athleticism, strength, and great combat prowess, though he also loves Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya because of how much affection and love they give to him. Arkon is a bodybuilder, wrestler, martial artist, boxer, combat strategist, and weightlifter who makes sure that his daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are well-disciplined, strong, and sturdy combatants who will show a lot of endurance in everything they do. Though he is approaching 60, Arkon has enough strength, vitality, and toughness to give any opponent a good reason to run from him. Ka-Zar Age: 57 Birthday: March 1, 1962 Status: Married to Arkon since 1985 Mini Bio: Ka-Zar is the second patriarch and he is so grateful to have a noble, handsome husband like Arkon and six beautiful daughters like Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya in his life. To balance Arkon’s authoritative nature, he displays compassion, nurture, lovability, and kindness to all of his daughters, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Although he unconditionally loves Ayame and Rosé as his daughters, he considers Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya his most favorite daughters because of how hilarious, energetic, compassionate, affectionate, and feisty they can be. Ka-Zar is a bodybuilder, wrestler, boxer, martial artist, hunter, trapper, fisher, weightlifter, and environmentalist who ensures that he, his husband, his daughters, his grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are not only physically fit but also one with nature. He and Arkon even taught Ayame, Rosé, Karan, Shunran, Winry, and Maya how to roar like jaguars, cheetahs, and panthers whenever they go into battle. Ka-Zar still manages to show a lot of super strength, vitality, and great combat prowess, which make him all the more awesome…
Okay, viewers. Quick question. What would happen if you combined one awesome and super strong dog hanyo, one fun-loving, sweet and rather kickass wolf yokai, one lovable dumb muscle of a martial artist, one gorgeous virgin, one fiery mechanic chick, and one feisty witch? You would get a crossover BroT6 that is absolutely fun, badass, charming in its own way, and so beautiful! If you cannot already tell who they are, they are Inuyasha and Ginta from Inuyasha, Kiichi “Kiibo” Miyazawa from Shootfighter Tekken or High School Exciting Story: Tough, Rosé Thomas and Winry Rockbell from Fullmetal Alchemist, and Maya Orihara from Ultra Maniac. Moreover, here are their ages in this piece of fan art. Inuyasha, aged 35 Ginta, aged 34 Kiibo, aged 34 Rosé, aged 32 Winry, aged 30 Maya, aged 29 It should come off as no surprise that I not only enjoy Inuyasha from time to time but also the three-episode OVA Shootfighter Tekken, both Fullmetal Alchemist and Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, and to some extent Ultra Maniac, mostly because Maya steals the show. These shows were a part of my life growing up all thanks to these characters. When making this piece of fanart, this begged the question. What would happen if Oton not only had Kiichi or Kiibo as his son but also adopted Inuyasha, Ginta, Rosé, Winry, and Maya as his own children and took in Pinako as the grandmother figure? I’m pretty sure this would be the most badass, kickass, awesome, and extremely grand family to ever walk the Japanese anime world. I can certainly see how everything unfolds as an anime crossover AU. As children, all six of them would be trained rigorously in the art of Nanshin Shadow Style by Sensei Oton and would always have each others’ backs whenever trouble comes afoot. As teenagers, they would balance school with their martial arts training whilst getting themselves into the usual drama that teens face like getting to a great university, getting great grades, having first dates, and more. Finally, as adults, all of them would become the greatest martial arts team known to man and end up married. The way I see the familial relationship in my AU is the following. Oton is the big, stern patriarch who ensures discipline on his six children by training them every day in the art of Nanshin Shadow Style. When they are not training he does like to unwind with them once in a while even though he does not always show it. Regardless, he deeply cares for all six of his children and finds something unique in every one of them. Grandpa Miyazawa and Pinako Rockbell are the wise grandparents who give their grandchildren great advice and can still open up a can of whoop-ass even in their old age. Inuyasha is the large-and-in-charge eldest child who leads with an iron fist. Despite having a gruff exterior, he does show his unconditional love to his younger siblings and goes out of his way to protect them. He enjoys all of the wrestling, beatdowns, and posedowns he has with Ginta and Kiibo and he is very tender towards his younger sisters, Rosé, Winry, and Maya. He has also been happily married to Ayame for seventeen years with five children. His eldest sons Kenta and Keita love being around Ginta and Kiibo, as they spar and train together with their father. His younger son, Kaito, and his daughters, Momoko and Maya, love being around Rosé, Winry, and Maya, as they also train with their mother and have quiet walks in the forest. Ginta is the meek, charming, loving, and comforting second child who is a foil to Inuyasha’s brand of impulsiveness. While not as macho and gruff as Inuyasha, he can still be assertive whenever his older brother does something rash or foolish or whenever he says something he does not agree with. In spite of the arguments he has with Inuyasha, he still considers him to not only the greatest brother he ever has but also his true friend. He and Inuyasha also consider Rosé and Winry to be their favorite little sisters, as they can show that they are as tough as their big brothers. Ginta has been happily married to Shunran for sixteen years with five children. His eldest sons, Minoru and Manabu, have a very close-knit friendship with Kenta and Keita, as they not only do a lot of training together but also have fun like many other active teenage boys. His daughters and youngest son Sakura, Kokoro, and Sentaro enjoy hanging out with Kaito, Momoko, and Maya, as they like to race each other in vast open fields and even hang out with their uncles, aunties, grandfather, and great-grandparents. Kiibo is the lovably goofy dumb muscle third child who loves to spar and have posedowns with his older brothers and likes to tease his younger sisters.
