Her mom, a newscaster reports about construction. Zoey talks tot he mayor. She shows a lizard almost got harmed. She tells them about the forest, to save it. She shows off the bike and give the city bikes. Mayor funds it for a week. if it works, they will cancel the road. Zoey's mom applauds her. 

With Evok and Snoozle, Snoozle blames the avatars. They show them about the Rangers' bikes. Evok tells them to steal the Morph-X. Ravi and Devon try get people to ride the X-Bikes. People reject them until they see Ben and Betty's dual bike. Blaze arrives and starts loading Morph X into his key and then creating a Needletron. Needletron drains the Morph X from the bikes. He blasts Ben and Betty into the water. The Rangers morph. Blaze morphs. The fiver fight. Red and Blue de-morph. Yellow is knocked down by Blaze. Intro runs.

Needletron blasts Yellow and she jump avoids it. She gets the Blaster and makes the cannon. She destroys Needletron. Blaze takes the needle and leaves. Zoey goes to the boys. Zoey thinks nobody will go near her bikes. Roxy tells Snoozle to make a Gigadrrone. Snoozle needs more. Blaze and Roxy have a plan. Zoey talks to the mayor, tomorrow is the deadline. Devon puts a centipede in a container. The other Ramhers make sure the critters are safe in case the forest gets run down. Zoey tells Nate she is concerned. He shows her his lizard that is his friend now. He says his parents are overseas and he is an only child so he always imagined what family would be like. He always wanted a brother. Zoey bemoans. She comes up with an idea with the X-Bikes make cooler. They are informed of a Blaze sighting.

Blaze takes Morph X and his needle is blasted away by the Rangers. Blaze can't morph and gets on a bike. The Rangers follow him. The Rangers are led to a warehouse where Tronics and Roxy are taking Morph-X. Roxy threatens. They charge the keys. The Rangers fight them. Roxy bats them. Blaze and the Tronics leave. Roxy morphs and fights the Rangers. Blaze almost files the vat for a gigadrone. Beta Model becomes Needledrone and sent to the city.


Ravi is told by his mom. Devon sends Ravi to handle it. He and Smash go in the Wheeler Zord. They change to Gorilla Mode. They send rockets on it. Roxy fights Red and Yellow. They take Morph X from the zord. Devon leaves in the Racer Zord. Zoey is alone with Roxy and she throws a explosive at her that makes a big explosion. Roxy leaves.

Zoey needs a carrot. Racer Zord arrives and stops the drone. It goes to Battle Mode and Red uses the Cheetah Beast Blaster. He does Cheetah Strike and destroys the drone. Later, Zoey arrives to the construction site. Her mom says she is proud. Mayor arrives on an X-Bike, saying he doesn't need a limo. On the news, Zoey's mom's footage of the Rangers on the bikes went viral. Mayor cancels the construction on the forest and orders more bikes. Zoey hugs her mom. She tells them the Rangers did it. Nate and Zoey let the lizard back to his home. They promise to bring the others. Ben and Betty converted the X-Bike into unicycles. The cycles go haywire and they crash. 


Review:
Cute episode. It had plot, character development, tension, conflict and a satisfying conclusion. Even though the plot is not so believable with the mayor being able to order bikes so quickly and just cancel construction willy-nilly, this is when the excuse 'it's for kids' applies. Children need to see things, not hear them. Politics and government are boring. In real life, Zoey would had to petition and boycott the construction before it was even broken ground to do so. But for Power Rangers, its done fine. I like that Zoey's mom is a reporter and they seem to have a positive relationship. Where most parents in Power Rangers lately they either have a positive relationship that is not explored or a conflictive one and one where they are apart.

Summary:
Ben and Betty have Valentine's Day gifts for the Rangers and chase a bee. Ravi visits the real Roxy in her coma case and wishes her a happy valentine's day and remembers last year they were together. Meanwhile in Snoozle's dimension, Roxy says she has her memories but no emotions. She comes up with an idea against Ravi. Nate meanwhile gets flowers. Roxy comes and takes Morph-X and creates a monster from a construction dozer vehicle. Nathan calls GB. Back at GB, Devon's cookies are rejected. They are called by the Commander. The trio arrive. Tronics are called and the Rangers call their weapons. Ravi fights the monster. Roxy trips Ravi and he is at the mercy of the Robotron.

Roxy stops the monster and leaves. Commander wonders what the robotron was after and wanted to know why Nathan was out. She put him on the buddy system and he hates it--he considers it a babysitter. They ask about Ravi, he shows them the picture and saying the avatar rescuing her. He asks Nathan if he thinks the real Roxy is in there, everyone thinks she's evil. Nathan says Ravi is a stickler for the rules. Devon figures he still loves her. Avatar Roxy gives Ravi a rose and says Happy Valentine's Day. She needs a device from Nate's lab from Ravi and he agrees. She leaves.

Ravi comes to Nate and asks about the Neural Aligner. Nate says it is theoretical and he would need the virus. Ravi takes it anyway. Devon and Zoey figure out what Ravi is up to and go to the park. Ravi meets with Roxy. The Robotron grabs Ravi. Roxy plans to infect Ravi with the virus. Roxy reveals she is all evil. The Rangers stop it. The Rangers fight the monster. She teleports away with the Neural Aligner. The Rangers morph. Tronics are called. The rangers fight the Tronics. Blue and Yellow fight the monster. Beta Gigadrone is sent to become Shoveldrone. Cruise comes to Devon and he deploys the Racer Zord. The battle mode fights Shoveldrone. He outruns the missiles. He changes to Cheetah Mode. Yellow surprises the monster with a back attack. The zord becomes battle mode again and Devon calls his blaster to finish off the Gigadrone and the others destroy the Robotron at the same time. 

Snozzle tries using the Aligner on Evox with a machine he makes. Blaze and Roxy listen to this. Back at GB, Ravi talks to sleeping Roxy. Ravi apologizes to the Rangers. They say they have to work together. They side hug. Zoey gets flowers from a secret valentine. Commander Shaw tells them  of the gifts in the hanger. Betty has a big sticky fly paper to get the bee. They get stuck on it and the Rangers find them.

Review:
A little late for Valentine's Day episode but nice they tried. I liked the moments between Ravi and Roxy. Great episode expect it felt Story A took over Story B and Story B was about a bee so good they kept it short. Also, Nate having a crush on Zoey is interesting as he is still being treated as a kid so it would be interesting if they is explored. Hopefully the Neural Aligner will return to help Roxy and Blaze.

Devon is washing cars because his dad doesn't know he's a Ranger and has him to prove himself. He is late to meet the general, who is Betty and Ben's dad. They show off the Dogtonic, made from parts of Tronics. Nate gives the idea to the General that they can use Gigadrone parts. The Rangers collect parts with their zords. The mayor helps out Devon wash cars. Blaze makes a Robotronic out of a saw--Slicertron. At the secret base, Nate moved stuff from his lab---including a robot head (J from Go-Busters making an early cameo). Yellow and Blue arrive to fight Slicertron and Blaze.

They morph. Blaze also transforms. Devon finally gets the call and says its an emergency to his boss. Blaze kicks them around. Slicertron slices a pole that falls on them. Devon arrives and spins the debris away. Blaze tries to get to them. The Rangers blast the villains while Red quickly slices them. The bad guys leaves and the Rangers de-morph. Ravi almost overheated. Zoe tells Devon to quit. Devon says his dad is proud of him and gets called by his boss and leaves. Nate says the Gigadrone parts explode and are useless. The boss tells Devon he can't leave, if he leaves again, he will be fired. Ravi and Zoe come to help Devon. 

Roxy sees the wrist coms and vunerable and Blaze steals them and Slicertron slices the,. They go to a Morph-X Tower. Ravi's mom arrives and says the tower was knocked down. They find the com pieces. Devon goes to tell the boss he has to go and says he'll be fired. He leaves and Boss threatens to tell the dad. Blaze and Slicertron are stopped by the Rangers. Mayor gets call from Devon's ex-boss in his limo and sees the Rangers. A little girl screams as a saw flies her way. 

Devon races and grabs her out of the way. Her mom takes her away. He shares a look with the mayor. Blue strikes Blaze down. Blaze teleports away. Scrozzle is using a Gamma model Gigadrone and sending it to the city. The rangers beat down the robotron. Devon leaves to use Racer Zord. Ravi and Zoe fight the Robotron. The Racer Zord in battle mode fights the Gigadrone but it has a shield and crashes their systems. It opens the tower and sucks out the Morph X. The commander tells to Jax and Smash to pilot the zords themselves. They distract the Gigadrone. Zoe and Ravi destroy the monser with Beast X Blast. 

The systems are almost rebooted. Devon tells Nate he will reboot the Gigadrone. He throws his sword and it breaks the sheild. The saw gets stuck on the zord but the Gigadrone falls down. Zoe takes the Gigadrone to the hanger of the secret base. Nathan is amazed the Gigadrone is in tact. The General asks Devon what's wrong. Betty gets caught in a Gigadrone hand thanks top Ben. At the local hangout Devon calls the Mayor and asks if he is okay. The Mayor is mad. The Rangers see the Mayor on the TV and he says the Rangers are heroic. He says he is proud of them. Devon says he will know it some day.

Review:
Nepotism! Ravi is the Commander's son, Devon is the Mayor's son, Zoey is the city reporter's daughter and Ben and Betty's dad is the General of Grid Battleforce. So who are Nate's parents? A basic episode but it would nice to have a BeastBot centered episode.

Power Rangers Beast Morphers - Hangar Heist - Episode Review

Summary:
The episode starts with the Gigadrone inside the secret hangar lab and Devon asking Nate for Morph-X to use on a rocket. Outside, the Rangers and Ben and Betty put the Morph-X in the rocket but it doesn't launch. Ben and Betty try to 'fix it' but it points sideways and launches in the wrong direction. Ben and Betty run away from it and then go after it when they reveal it actually belongs to their father. Devon takes out his own model rocket and it breaks apart and doesn't launch it. Ravi critiques it and Devon takes it as an insult. Devon gets defensive and leaves. 

Meanwhile, Evok blames Roxy for losing the Gigadrone and she says she will make up for it. Back at GB headquarters the Rangers do a simulation of forming the Megazord but Ravi and Devon butt heads. Ravi gives Devon advise and Devon rather go with his guts. Devon storms off when the simulation has failed. The Commander talks to Devon about being a good leader means to listen to your teammates, especially Ravi since he has experience and training. Devon thinks about it. Ben and Betty find the rocket but one of the burners hasn't gone off. They spot Roxy. Roxy asks Scrozzle for help with the steel door. 

Scrozzle made a Robotron from a gas tank of some sort. The monster can melt anything so it melts the door and they go in. A piece of a burner goes off and makes Ben and Betty fly away. Roxy puts Morph X into the Gigadrone. Devon arrives in Cruise (which doesn't turn back into a robot or even speak) and the others in the GB SUV. They fight Roxy. Scrozzle in the mean time takes things from the lab including a robot head---(J from Go-Busters). Ravi kicks Devon out of the base to save them. He gets the Racer Zord and tries breaking the street to take the Rangers out but Scrozzle releases another Gigadrone. The first Gigadrone stops Devon. Zoey and Ravi destroy the Robotron. They fight and Devon uses the melter thing from the second Gigadrone to release Ravi and Zoey. Ravi and Zoey are saved by their zords. 

The Rangers fight with the zords. They try forming the Megazord. The two Gigadrones try stopping them but there was a forcefield around them. They form the Megazord and they destroy the Gigadrones. Back in the evil lair, Scrozzle and Evok talk about a secret project. Roxy and Blaze want to know what it is and Evok threatens them. The Rangers present Ben and Betty with their dad's rocket fixed. They successfully fly the rocket off. 

Review:
A better episode then last week. A good part was we get a slow build to the new Megazord, not like most recent seasons where Megazords just appear out of nowhere. Also J's head being stolen by Scrozzle is interesting. The actual conflict between Ravi and Devon feels authentic and I loved the Commander's advice. I wish she had a full name though.

Jax explains the reasons why Smash and Cruise messed up earlier. Zoey apologizes to Jax. Nate arrives and explains why they got the discs. Jax wants to set up a trap. Zoey wants to keep him safe. The others convince her. Later, Jax bumps into a Robotron.

Review:
A friend of mine wanted more interaction with the Beast Bots, here is a whole episode dedicated to it. Wish it was more in every ep though.

Hasbro news from SDCC 2019

First of all, we all know that the Beast Morphers cast was/is not at San Diego Comic Con 2019 while all Neo Saban casts were previously. I don't really care. But Hasbro sent a video message form the cast. The major highlight was the Lightning Collection.



We were told we would get Pink Ranger, Goldar, Magna Defender, Red Beast Morpher and gold will be coming soon and they will be. Goldar box art not pictured.






Green Ranger and Putty Patroller set revealed, Green Ranger is 'evil' so he has the Sword of Darkness but for some reason, fans don't like he has the silver stripe on his helmet. 

Boom Comics shown off an Omega Red Ranger.

And the teamup of Beast Morphers we have been waiting for..
Jason (Austin St. John) is returning. No plot synopsis yet. In May it was rumored that Davi Santos (Ivan/Dino Charge Gold), Yoshi Sudarso (Koda/Dino Charge Blue) and Brennan Mejia (Tyler/Dino Charge Red) were on set. It was later reported Austin St. Jon (Jason Geiger) would also return. Also, James Davies (Chase/Dino Charge black) has also been reported. Brennan Mejia denied it in one video but we all knew he might be avoiding it. The trio were at a convention in New Zealand. 

Footage was seen of this teamup with Dino Thunder Blue, Dino Charge Black, MM Blue, Dino Charge Blue, MM Pink and Dino Charge Gold (Gold in his tan US suit). Obviously, this teamup will be based on the Kyoryuger vs Go-Busters special with a Dino teamup (Abaranger, Kyoryuger, and Zyuranger). It is possible they will use the actual footage. A few months ago people freaked out there was not going to be Dino Thunder cast. It might look like they won't be there but they could also have voice overs. Even though the other Mighty Morphin Rangers are present, the actors might not be there but only the suits. So there is more I have to rant but I will do it later.

Dark Kamen Riders 2.0

$

0
Updated from original 2010 post...
Here is a fan drawing of the Dark Riders in the Alternative World. There is a lot of Kamen Riders that rival the lead one, many evil, but here are the ones that are considered the Dark Kamen Riders and some other evil ones.

Shadow Moon
In Kamen Rider Black RX, Nobuhiko Akizuki, who had been abducted by Gorgom to become one of their new kings. Shadow Moon is both the stepbrother and best friend to Kohtaro Minami, who had been abducted alongside Nobuhiko but managed to escape.

Kamen Rider Ryuuga
Same thing with the last one, above is Onyx is from KRDK. He also appeared in Kamen Rider Ryuki: Episode Final, I have expressed how much I don't like his design since it is just a repaint of Ryuki. He later appeared in Kamen Rider Decade in the Negative World, he murdered and assumed the guise of the World of Negatives counterpart of Hirohiko Sato. He is part of Kamen Rider Diend Complete Form.

Pseudo-Rider Alternative
Pseudo-Rider Alternative is a Dark Rider who assumed the guise of the World of Negatives counterpart of Tanaka, Natsumi's high school teacher. Though ordered by Otoya to keep an eye on Natsumi rather than kill her, he intentionally decides to attack Natsumi, resulting in Dark Kiva beating him merciless. Alternative is then later destroyed by Diend. Although referred to as Alternative, the suit is actually that of Alternative Zero. Kamen Rider Alternative and Alternative Zero were not technically Dark Riders in Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Kamen Rider Ohja
Even though not officially a Dark Rider, I consider him so because he is just pure evil and even though a lot of Kamen Riders go against the main one (Knight for example), Ohja is nonredeemable.

Kamen Rider Orga
In the alternative world of Kamen Rider 555: Paradise Lost, there were two riders. The Orga gear was given to Yuji Kiba after he had been fooled into thinking he had been betrayed by the humans. He appeared in the Negative World in Kamen Rider Decade. Orga is part of Kamen Rider Diend Complete Form. He who murdered and assumed the guise of the World of Negatives counterpart of Kenji Sakata.

Kamen Rider Dark Kabuto
In the production of the Dark Kabuto costume, the production team took a Kamen Rider Caucasus costume and repainted it black with red circuitry details. Souji Kusakabe was originally a human infant used in Negishi's experiments in hopes of turning all of humanity into Natives. He appeared in the Negative World in Kamen Rider Decade. He murdered and assumed the guise of the World of Negatives counterpart of Kazuyoshi Aoyagi.

Kamen Rider Nega Den-O
He appears in Kamen Rider Den-O & Kiva: Climax Deka. Negataros and a select few Imagin are stray Imagin who evaded the fate of the other evil Imagin when Kai ceased to exist in the final episode. Negataros has to deal with both the DenLiner Police lead by Ryotaro Nogami, an inside man in the form of Yuto Sakurai, further worsened by the brief meddling of Wataru Kurenai.

Kamen Rider Dark Kiva
In the Kiva Series, the Checkmate Four's original King is referred to as the Dark Kiva, the lord of all Fangires and the original Kiva who was a threat to humanity in his time. However, Dark Kiva does not require the use of a being such as Tatsulot to achieve this form, and has no chains on his body as Kiva needs to control his power. In the Negative World of Kamen Rider Decade series, Otoya Kurenai is a young man who leads the Dark Riders, using his connection to Kivat-bat the 2nd to become Kamen Rider Dark Kiva.

Kamen Rider G4
He appears in Kamen Rider Agito The Movie: Project G4 in 2001 and is part of Kamen Rider Diend's Complete Form. The G4 suit then began to malfunction, ultimately killing Mizuki. Beginning to move on its own, the suit attempted to rise again to continue the fight, forcing Hikawa to destroy it with the Scorpion.

Kamen Rider Gaoh
Appears in Kamen Rider Den-O: I'm Born!, he is a king of bandits from the Warring States era and leads a troop of Imagin with which he plans on using to take over the DenLiner. On his journey, he also obtains Yukimura's help in unearthing the GaohLiner.

Kamen Rider Arc
He appeared in the movie Kamen Rider Kiva The Movie: King of the Castle in the Demon World. Arc appears part of Kamen Rider Diend Complete Form. Arc's name comes from a Japanese word for "evil."

Kamen Rider Core
Kamen Rider is the main antagonist in the final portion (Movie War Core) of the film, Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider OOO & W featuring Skull: Movie War Core. Kamen Rider Core is purely an energy-based Rider, he was created from the Sasori, Kani, and Ebi Core Medals, which appeared to house his consciousness, merging with the Memory Memory which held the memories of all of the older Showa Era Kamen Riders and the True Gaia Memory, thanks to the Pteradon Yummy gathering them.

Kamen Rider Eternal
Jun Kazu is the main antagonist of Kamen Rider W 's last story arc. He is a researcher of Foundation X wearing a lab coat at almost all times. He also appeared in Kamen Rider W Returns: Eternal, a prequel to the main TV series.\

Kamen Rider Jam/Mars
Kougane is Kamen Rider Mars who is the main antagonist in Kamen Rider Gaim: Great Soccer Battle! Golden Fruits Cup!. It later returns in the series finale as the female Kamen Rider Jam, serving as the series' final villain.

Another Riders
Kamen Rider Zi-O revealed evil Kamen Riders such as Another Riders. They are a group of monstrous Kamen Riders whose powers are derived from their original counterparts.

Let me know if I'm missing any.

A solid episode, the plot made sense and all the characters came together. The Ben and Betty plot was not forced in and meant more to the A plot. I did notice that there was very little Blaze in this episode.

Review:
Doesn't Joey look like one of the kids from All That (2019)? Also, why didn't Ravi have Joey take out the tuba from the trash? That's the first thing I would've done! Oh, Ravi, haven't you become genre-savvy already? Nate has. I guess it is just one genre-savvy ranger per season. Jayden was the one for Samurai and Dino Charge Rangers had their moments. And that's about it, Megaforce and Ninja Steel didn't get the memo. Mick was pretty genre-savvy but not sure if he counts. Joey stood up to the bullies but with martial arts, not his tuba. I would've liked it better if it was with the tuba. Like playing really well, not blasting him...

SUMMARY:
Zoey is looking or something, they are dressed up. Steel is the Frankenstein monster, Nate is Dr. Frankenstein, Zoey is a Viking and Ravi is Sherlock Holmes. They use a streaming service that hypnotizes them into being their characters by Scorzzle. Devon arrives and sees them believing they are their characters. The others run off but Devon stops Sherlock Holmes. Ravi wants him to be a cop. Devon goes to Zoey's costume trunk and pits on a British cop costume. Devon uses a bad accent and tells "Sherlock" he is looking for Ravi. He tells him that Ravi was scared of the dentist. Clips are shown. He also tells him about the boy Joey learning martial arts, from last week. The spell comes off Ravi and he is back to normal. Devon and Ravi change into costumes. Devon changes into a Viking and tells Ravi to get the Frankenstein characters. Ravi tells the Commander to shut down a floor to find Nate and Steel. Zoey is taking down a snack machine when Devon arrives as a Viking.

Zoey throws an axe at him and the theme starts. After the commercial, The axe is thrown on Devon but it is rubber. Devon wraps her with a cable from his Morpher. Devon tells her about Zoey, a fearless warrior. He tells her about when she becomes a Ranger. Zoey or Ingrid the Viking flinches. Devon tells her about when Zoey said she'd be better without Jax the Beast Bot. The clip runs about her apologizing to Jax about taking him for granted. The spell wears off and Zoey returns to normal. Meanwhile, Steel scares Nate. Ravi wraps cables around the two. He is dressed as a doctor. All three main Rangers are dressed as doctors (with the white lab coats). They talk to the tied up Nate and Steel. The trio tells them about Nate and Steel. Clips run about Nate creating Steel in front of the villains. Nate morphs into the Gold Ranger. Steel then becomes the Silver Ranger in the clip. Devon and the others narrate.

The spell wears off the two. They are untied. Commander asks how thye are, she says a Robotron is trying to break in to a Morph X Tower. The Robotron scares a Morph X truck driver. Scrozzle is happy. The Rangers arrive and morph. Gigadrone arrives and Zoey and Devon leave on their zords. Zoey blasts the Gigadrone which makes itself another come out of its back. It is a Delta model. The Megazords fight. Gold and Silver fight the Robotron. Smash brings the Wheeler Zord to Ravi. Gold and Silver destroy the Robotron with Striker Saber attack. Sytems are down for Red and Ravi goe sto Gorilla mode and protects the others. Gold and Silver call their zords. They save Ravi. Steel attacks the gigadrones with his zord. Nate gets his crane and picks up a Gigadrone and spins him around. The two zords combine into a Megazord and destroy the Delta Model. Later, the Rangers have a movie night again. Devon comes out as a skeleton ninja and makes them drop the popcorn. Now he likes wearing costumes, he likes 'being' the character. The Rangers play fight. 

REVIEW: 
I think this is the first episode not to actually have Roxy and Blaze outside of the clips. Interesting how Ninja Steel tried coping the school and Bulk and Skull aspects of MMPR but Beast Morphers plays homage to Martial Arts and Juice Bar...
