Forever Red Morphs Inurangers Style

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…

Forever Red: Inurangers Recast

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…

Forever Red: The Toonami-Era Red Inurangers

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.

The Zordon-Era Toonami Inurangers Team-Ups

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…

The Toonami-Era Inuranger Teams (Mega Last Update)

Greetings and salutations, fellow aficionados of anime, Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and everything early 1990s to early 2000s, Antoni here. As you can tell from the title, I am giving this Toonami-Era Inuranger team lineup one last shot. I was undoubtedly satisfied with the team lineups that I arranged for Mighty Morphin Inurangers, Inurangers in Space, Inurangers Lost Galaxy, and Inurangers Time Force, and I decided to keep them this way. However, looking back at the teams that I arranged for Mighty Morphin Makai Rangers which I will rename Mighty Ronin Inurangers, Inurangers Zeo, Inurangers Turbo, Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue, and Inurangers Wild Force, I was not pleased looking back at these lineups. I also wanted to give the YuYu Hakusho cast their spot independent from my Inurangers AU headcanon. Therefore, Mighty Ronin Inurangers will receive a cast overhaul, while Inurangers Zeo, Inurangers Turbo, Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue, and Inurangers Wild Force will have some cast changeups. For those of you who are new to this cast lineup, the Toonami-Era Inurangers are the fictional counterpart to the Saban-Era Power Rangers from 1993 to 2002 after more dedicated rewatching of all three seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers up to Power Rangers Wild Force. Mighty Morphin Inurangers involves Inuyasha, Shuran, Sesshoumaru, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran as the main seven rangers. The subsequent Inurangers series also follows the format of having seven main rangers per season akin to the real-life Super Sentai and Power Rangers counterparts in Japan and America respectively. Sure, the real-life Super Sentai and Power Rangers counterparts usually top between five to six main members. However, I argue that seven is the perfect number for a Super Sentai or Power Rangers team. Ever since committing myself to creating Inurangers team lineups, I have become a lot stricter with how the teams shall be arranged. All three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers and Inurangers Time Force have five male members and two female members. In contrast, Inurangers in Space and Inurangers Lost Galaxy have three male members and four female members. However, the other Inurangers series ended up becoming a bit fast and loose with how many male members and female members can be in each Inuranger team, with Inurangers Zeo having two male members and five female members, as well as Mighty Morphin Makai Rangers, Inurangers Turbo, Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue, and Inurangers Wild Force, having four male members and three female members. Now that I have become a lot more straightforward with my visions for the Toonami-Era Inurangers teams, I have decided to strictly adhere to the five-male-member/two-female-member and three-male-member/four-female-member formats. Why I chose these arrangements is because the five-male-member/two-female-member and three-male-member/four-female-member formats are my favorite ones to work with.   This is how each team lineup shall be arranged. Each team lineup shall have seven main members, i.e., the Red Ranger, the Sixth Ranger, the Seventh Ranger, the Black/Blue Ranger, the Blue/Green Ranger, the Yellow Ranger, and the Pink Ranger. All three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers, Inurangers Turbo, and Inurangers Time Force shall have five male members and two female members. Meanwhile, Mighty Ronin Inurangers, Inurangers Zeo, Inurangers in Space, Inurangers Lost Galaxy, Inurangers Lightspeed Rescue, and Inurangers Wild Force shall have three male members and four female members. All three seasons of Mighty Morphin Inurangers will have the same cast members all the way through, as there are also composite characters, while the subsequent Inurangers seasons will have different characters just like the real-life Super Sentai counterparts. With that said, let us get acquainted with the new, improved, and way clearer version of the Toonami-Era Inuranger teams’ lineups.   Mighty Morphin Inurangers Seasons 1 to 3 and Mighty Morphin Inurangers the Movie (2000) 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   Mighty Ronin Inurangers (2001) Ryuichi Hayami from Hajime no Ippo the 18-year-old Red Ronin Inuranger version of Aurico voiced by Nathan Smythe Kaname Chidori from Full Metal Panic the 17-year-old Green Ronin Inuranger version of Dulcea voiced by Luci Christian Teletha “Tessa” Testarossa from Full Metal Panic the 17-year-old White Ronin Inuranger version of Delphine voiced by Hilary Haag Mario Musicanova from Geneshaft the 18-year-old Black Ronin Inuranger version of Corcus voiced by Crispin Freeman Hiroto Amagiwa from Geneshaft the 17-year-old Blue Ronin Inuranger version of Cestro voiced by Dominic Armato Mizuki Inaba from Full Metal Panic the 16-year-old Yellow Ronin Inuranger version of Tideus voiced by Mandy Clark Remmy Levy-Strauss from Geneshaft the 15-year-old Pink Ronin Inuranger version of Cestria voiced by Brianne Siddall   Inurangers Zeo (2001) Toran from Inuyasha the 19-year-old Zeo Ranger V Red version of Tommy Oliver voiced by Alison Matthews Kisuke from Inuyasha the 20-year-old White Gold Ranger version of Billy Cranston voiced by Colin Murdock Kuranosuke Takeda from Inuyasha the 21-year-old Black Gold Ranger version of Jason Lee Scott voiced by Ted Cole Heihachi Hayashida from Samurai 7 the 17-year-old Zeo Ranger III Blue version of Rocky DeSantos voiced by Greg Ayres Enju from Inuyasha the 17-year-old Zeo Ranger IV Green version of Adam Park voiced by Rebecca Shoichet Sakurako Yukihira from Detective School Q the 15-year-old Zeo Ranger II Yellow version of Tanya Sloan voiced by Hunter McKenzie Austin Kuniko Touya from Detective School Q the 13-year-old Zeo…

A Visceral Jungle Sibling Training Session

This mentor-student meme base originally belonged to KeybladeMagicDan. This is also dedicated to everybody who enjoys the idea of Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John Carter, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena being mentors to Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa to intensify their combat prowess and help build their powerfully brawny bodies. Sit back, relax, and revel in the wonders that the Royal Jungle Slaughterers of the Mangani Tribe have in store for the Brawny Jungle Brawlers of the Savannah Tribe. The Royal Jungle Slaughterers and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers truly possess a friendship, camaraderie, and siblinghood that can never be annihilated. Their bond also transfers wonderfully to how both jungle warrior siblings grow physically and psychologically as combatants, jungle rulers, and feral people. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena can transform Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa from really good combatants with excellent physiques to mightier warriors with a whole lot of muscle and strength. They have a whole roster of muscle-building and combat-sharpening regimens for their students and are willing to give them everything they have. Outside of strengthening muscles and combat prowess, the Mangani warrior sovereign siblings additionally instill the value of honor and protection of the jungle to the Savannah warrior sovereign siblings. They additionally pass down their perseverance, strong will, resilience, and determination to them whether sparring in intense mixed martial arts bouts or fulfilling their duties as protectors of the jungle. Training in various combat styles constitutes the hallmark of The Royal Jungle Slaughterers’ and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers’ encouragement to grow in physical strength and thorough endurance in competitions. The main martial arts that these two groups of seven-sibling jungle sovereigns practice are Pankration, Lutte Senegalaise, Vale Tudo, Luta Livre, Hardcore Wrestling, Mixed Martial Arts, and Shootfighting. Bundroc would provide Anabebe his repertoire of bearhugs and torture racks. Malb’yat would introduce Tar-Chan to his power slams and power drops. Tarzan would give Rod a chance to attempt rear naked chokeholds and hammer fists. John would pass on his heel hooks and liver punches to Nid. Kavandavanda would assist Michael with his camel clutches and overhand punches. Aroc would aid Matt with his sharpshooters and rabbit punches. Sheena would ensure that Lisa handles her joint locks and uppercuts exceedingly well. When all is said and done, the Royal Jungle Slaughterers thoroughly equip the Brawny Jungle Brawlers with abundant combat arsenal and brutal techniques to overcome enemies. When it comes to embracing their feral sides as jungle warrior sovereigns, Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena also do their best to help Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa reach their animalistic potential. As the Mangani warrior sovereigns are no stranger to tapping into their animalistic sides, Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena have mightily resounding roars, vicious snarls, and feral instincts to make them forces to never be messed with. Whenever Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena roar like a hybrid between a tiger, a lion, and a Tyrannosaurus Rex, their roars would motivate Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa to roar even more powerfully akin to a hybrid between a gorilla, a sabertoothed tiger, and a Tyrannosaurus Rex. This is also demonstrated in how both mentors and students use their animal instincts in combat by using their fangs and claws to overcome their foes. Sometimes the twelve jungle men strip naked to do battle, while the two jungle women remain in their brassieres. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, and Aroc would also do wonders for their weightlifting and bodybuilding prospects for Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, and Matt. Meanwhile, Sheena would do Lisa a huge favor by increasing her speed, strength, and sexy model appeal by engaging in swimming contests, marathon running, weightlifting contests, and using their curvy bodies to make themselves appealing yet powerful queens of the jungle. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, and Aroc would assist Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, and Matt in challenging their boundaries in weightlifting, strongman contests, and bodybuilding pose-downs whether they do deadlifts or flaunt their bulging biceps, alabaster abs, terrific triceps, and powerful pectorals for the spectators. Sheena would always make sure that Lisa constantly strives for excellence in strength, speed, and athleticism and would always push her to perform at peak level. There is no doubt that the Brawny Jungle Brawlers can adapt to everything that the Royal Jungle Slaughterers can dish out to them. Muscles, strength, power, and exceptional combat prowess may be the heartbeats that define the Royal Jungle Slaughterers’ mentorship for the Brawny Jungle Brawlers. Nevertheless, the most valuable lesson that the Royal Jungle Slaughterers have ever taught the Brawny Jungle Brawlers is to protect the jungle and all its inhabitants. Every creature, tribesperson, and living thing has a life and soul. It is up to Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa to protect their home from invaders, poachers, and predators. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena would always make sure that Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa do their duties in protecting every piece of flora and fauna in their jungle domain and stand in solidarity with their fellow tribespeople. The Royal Jungle Slaughterers would even help inspire a drive for the Brawny Jungle Brawlers to train the next generation of jungle combatants in various mixed martial arts styles while also imbuing them with a sense of duty to protect their jungle home. Therefore, strength and responsibility go hand-in-hand in their jungle. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena would do an amazing job in being Anabebe’s, Tar-Chan’s, Rod’s, Nid’s, Michael’s, Matt’s, and Lisa’s mentors. They would not only propel their combat prowess, physical strength, and muscular appeal but also imbue them with duty and responsibility as jungle warrior sovereigns. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and remember that you can always rely on Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John Carter,…

The Strongest Jungle Sibling Friendship Ever

This “What if Person became Friends” meme originally belonged to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to everybody who finds the idea of Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John Carter, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena being best friends with Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa. Sit back, relax, and soak in the epic, powerful, potent, and exciting friendship between The Royal Jungle Slaughterers and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers. These two groups of mighty jungle warrior siblings each consisting of six musclebound brothers and one curvaceous sister may tear each other limb from limb. However, they have so much they share in common besides being two groups of jungle warrior siblings. All fourteen of them are passionate about various forms of hand-to-hand combat, tapping into their more feral sides against their opponents, and helping their fellow warriors reach their full physical potential. Most of all, they protect their jungle home with all of their strength and would never permit any poacher to encroach on their jungle and its inhabitants. What brings these two groups of seven-sibling jungle warrior rulers is not just their unparalleled physical strength in combat but also how close-knit they are as a family. Neither poachers nor predators nor warmongers would dare separate the bonds that The Royal Jungle Slaughterers and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers have as septets of jungle siblings. Should invaders encroach on their jungle, all fourteen jungle warrior siblings will tear them limb from limb with their bare hands, fangs, claws, and muscles. The Royal Jungle Slaughterers and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers thoroughly signify an unbreakable friendship, thanks to finding common attributes and appreciating each other’s differences. Bundroc’s rugged virility as a caveman warrior king compliments Anabebe’s muscular manliness as an African tribal warrior. Malb’yat’s savage ferociousness and Tar-Chan’s staunch fierceness can be tamed by having both jungle men engaging in warm moments of unconditional brotherhood. Tarzan’s encouragement and Rod’s amicability are what positively influence each other to be the best versions of themselves. John’s staunchness and Nid’s valor, respectively toward Tarzan and Rod as their dearest brothers, are the attributes that constructively draw them together. Kavandavanda’s endurance and Michael’s competitive spirit consistently challenge each other to persevere amidst all odds. Aroc’s resilience and Matt’s determination constitute their everlastingly genuine bond. Sheena’s fierceness and Lisa’s toughness are the hallmarks of these two jungle queens’ sisterhoods. Their synergy toward each other knows no limits. Bundroc’s, Malb’yat’s, Tarzan’s, John’s, Kavandavanda’s, Aroc’s, and Sheena’s epic friendships with Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa have grown from childhood to adolescence to adulthood. As children, the twelve jungle princes would start as rambunctious and rowdy in their play wrestling, while the two jungle princesses would compete in swimming and running. As teenagers, all fourteen jungle warrior sovereigns would practice various fighting styles such as Pankration, Lutte Senegalaise, Vale Tudo, Luta Livre, Hardcore Wrestling, Mixed Martial Arts, and Shootfighting. Between their teens and twenties, the twelve young jungle men also got into bodybuilding, while the two young jungle women got into circuit training. As adults, the twelve jungle men grew more muscular, got themselves into bodybuilding competitions, and were engaged in various mixed martial arts tournaments focusing on Vale Tudo and Lutte Senegalaise. The two jungle women grew into mighty combatants who were adept in wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, and Pankration while also being fitness models for top magazines. All fourteen jungle warrior sovereigns partake in activities that they enjoy and have thoroughly defined them to this day. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, and Matt enjoy partaking in bodybuilding competitions either against each other or against more prominent bodybuilders. The twelve jungle men even enjoy flaunting their glorious muscles for their dear little sisters Sheena and Lisa. Aside from bodybuilding, Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John, Kavandavanda, Aroc, Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, and Matt also love engaging in weightlifting contests, Pankration matches, wrestling bouts, or boxing rounds either in G-strings or completely naked. Sheena and Lisa also love to compete with each other in swimming, marathon running, boxing, wrestling, kickboxing, and weightlifting. Moreover, they enjoy seeing their older brothers’ bodybuilding, weightlifting, and Pankration matches either in G-strings or in the nude because they find it charmingly amusing to witness their handsomely muscular bodies in the flesh and are joyously watching them. These fourteen jungle warrior sovereigns may appreciate and care for every animal in their jungle home. However, the animals they identify with are giant cats, specifically Bengal tigers, African lions, and even ligers. Both pairs of jungle warrior siblings may come from different tribes, with The Royal Jungle Slaughterers from the Mangani tribe and The Brawny Jungle Brawlers from the Savannah Tribe. Nevertheless, they unite with each other like a pride of lions protecting their families from all harm. All fourteen jungle warrior sovereigns possess roars that can intimidate all of their enemies and make them scamper away like the worms that they are. Should poachers, looters, polluters, and invaders be so brazen to tarnish the Mangani and Savannah tribes of the jungle, both groups of seven-sibling jungle warriors would make like the mighty lions that they are, unleash powerfully earth-shattering roars, and charge at them with all of their might. Subsequently, all fourteen jungle warrior sovereigns would tap into their feral side and slash their enemies using their fangs, claws, and muscles for brutality and leverage. There you have it, folks. A powerfully mighty friendship forged between The Royal Jungle Slaughterers of the Mangani Tribe (Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John Carter, Kavandavanda, Aroc, and Sheena) and The Brawny Brawlers of the Savannah Tribe (Anabebe, Tar-Chan, Rod, Nid, Michael, Matt, and Lisa) built to last for millennia. I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and always make strong friendships with your fellow jungle warrior sovereigns, everybody. Bundroc, Malb’yat, Tarzan, John Carter, Kavandavanda, and Aroc belong to Edgar Rice Burroughs, Dell, and Gold Key Comics. Sheena belongs to Will Eisner and Jerry Eiger.

Musclebound Mentorship

This mentor-student meme base originally belongs to KeybladeMagicDan. This is also dedicated to those who fancy the idea of Zula of the Wasai, Conan of Cimmeria, Ka-Zar of the Savage Lands, and Arkon of Polemachus training George of the Jungle, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli to be the musclebound mixed martial artists, bodybuilders, and mighty jungle warriors that they are. Sit back, relax, and soak in the musclebound virility that Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon imbue in George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli. I mentioned in my previous post that Zula’s, Conan’s, Ka-Zar’s, and Arkon’s epically strong friendship with George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli is astoundingly unbreakable. This is because of their penchant for combat, fascination with bodybuilding, and protecting the jungle from all harm. Here is where these two groups of musclebound brothers’ friendship and brotherhood can be advantageous. Considering that Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon are more muscular, bigger, and older than George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli combined, it would be phenomenal if the four bludgeoning warlord brothers trained the four raging feral brothers. Sure, George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli are renowned for their magnificent muscles, incredible combat prowess, and feral ferocity, especially where Basuli and Tarzan are the deadliest and most vicious opponents any fighter has ever witnessed. However, since Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon have faced bigger and stronger challengers, training their best friends/wards would be beneficial for them in developing brutally relentless combat techniques and building muscle and strength. Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon have been doing wonders for George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli from their preteen years to their adult years. When George was 12, Basuli and Tarzan were 11, and Maugli was 10, 18-year-olds Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon trained them in Pankration, wrestling, boxing, Vale Tudo, Luta Livre, and Shootfighting. Their attacks had a wide range of hammer fists, liver punches, rear naked chokeholds, piledrivers, headbutts, bearhugs, and torture racks. As George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli were also jungle warrior princes, they even included bites, roars, and slashes to emulate the tigers’, lions’, and leopards’ way of fighting. Eight years later, 26-year-olds Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon helped 20-year-old George, 19-year-olds Basuli and Tarzan, and 18-year-old Maugli build a whole lot of muscle through weightlifting and circuit training. The Bludgeoning Warlords even helped the Raging Feral Kings with their bodybuilding routines, as both mentors and students had the magnificent muscles to prove their worth as real men with big muscles, heaps of virility, and abundant fighting spirit. As George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli grew older, stronger, and more muscular, Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon continued to push them to fight well. One of their most memorable bouts occurred when Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon were 37, George was 31, Basuli and Tarzan were 30, and Maugli was 29. Both groups of warrior brothers engaged in a match that started with a bodybuilding posedown, thus showing how their biceps, pecs, triceps, abs, and back muscles increased in size then came the real event. The main fight resounded with cracking joints and writhing muscles. When Zula gave George a bearhug, George countered it with a double axe handle on Zula’s head. When Conan gave Basuli a rear naked chokehold, Basuli elbowed Conan in the abdominal area and showered him with uppercuts, jabs, and hooks. When Ka-Zar gave Tarzan a tracheal grip choke, Tarzan released Ka-Zar’s grip and gave him a headbutt, liver punch, and hammer fist combo. When Arkon delivered a fireman’s carry to Maugli, Maugli retorted Arkon’s attack with a barrage of ground-and-pounds and holding him in a camel clutch. George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli managed to emerge as the victors. However, they did not want to take sole credit for winning against Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon, as they also congratulated them for giving them the most exciting beatdown they have ever had. From that day forward, Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon made sure that they incorporated bodybuilding posedowns and brutal mixed martial arts bouts in every tournament they did, let alone train in. Every bout that Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon engage in with George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli demonstrates the abundance of respect, allegiance, and fortitude there is aside from the muscular virility both mentors and students possess. Zula has shown George how to be mindful of his opponents’ attacks by thinking one step faster and implementing counterattacks. Conan has inspired Basuli to take advantage of his powerfully muscular body to give his opponents the crushing bearhugs and chokeholds of a lifetime. Ka-Zar has managed to make Tarzan find the balance between using his feral brutality and combative reflexes in his defense and offense attacks. Arkon has transformed Maugli to grow into a powerful muscle hunk capable of tackling stronger opponents. Throughout Zula’s, Conan’s, Ka-Zar’s, and Arkon’s 40s to late-50s, they have made sure that George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli grew stronger and mightier throughout their mid-30s to early 50s. Therefore, George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli continued to be grateful to Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon for being their mentors, best friends, strongest opponents, and all-around great people to be with. Their long-lasting bond in everything they continue to do will never die. I hope you all enjoyed this deep dive into how effective Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, and Arkon can train George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli to be the powerfully virile combatants that they are, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and remember to grow in strength just like Zula, Conan, Ka-Zar, Arkon, George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli, everybody.

Martial Arts Anime Training for Dudley and Daisy

Greetings, anime fans, martial arts aficionados, fighting game devotees, and enthusiasts of all things about anime, martial arts, video games, and fighting tournaments. Antoni here with another written entry. As a follow-up to my previous post regarding my fourteen seven-person anime martial arts team-ups, I thought it would be nice to feature an idea born out of my good friend, Jeffrey Quick aka Ginga1122. He has been wanting his OTP Dudley and Daisy from the 2010 Nickelodeon cartoon T.U.F.F. Puppy to be featured in my anime martial arts AU headcanon consisting of fourteen teams of seven anime characters each possessing different combat styles. Well, Jeff, your wish has come true. Mind you, I have also put Dudley’s and Daisy’s human ages on show. As for the martial arts, they will learn from each group, they will be divided into weeks and sorted according to the individual signature techniques they will learn per anime martial artist. Enjoy.   Tokyo, Japan. May 17, 2014, which was the date that “Girlfriend or Foe?” aired on Nicktoons Network. 26-year-old Dudley Puppy and his 24-year-old wife Daisy Spaniel-Puppy were enthusiastic to set foot in Tokyo for fourteen weeks of total martial arts immersion. Joining them were their seven children: 4-year-old twin sons Damien Callum Puppy and Darren Carlton Puppy, 3-year-old triplet sons Dennis Edward Puppy, David Elmer Puppy, and Devon Ezekiel Puppy; and 2-year-old twin daughters Dorothy Grace Puppy and Dominique Glory Puppy. The Puppy family set into their new apartment with their bags unpacked and itineraries ready for fourteen weeks of intense martial arts training. Damien, Darren, Dennis, David, Devon, Dorothy, and Dominique were still very young toddlers trying out what their parents were about to get themselves into. Nevertheless, they were about to soak in new skills that would help them grow into the valiant fighters that their parents were.   Dudley and Daisy, given their occupations of working as agents and combat specialists for the Turbo Undercover Fighting Force or T.U.F.F. for short, saw in their little children’s eyes that they were just as excited to learn the techniques that their parents were going to learn. Therefore, they agreed that their children needed to start out young for them to grow well as fighters. Time waited for nobody. Dudley and Daisy prepared themselves for some intense training, while their seven children were going to be as immersed as their parents were. The journey has just begun, learning various techniques and trying to remain in one piece.   Week 1- The Splendid Seven of Nerima: Feral Beasts Roar (Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran) Dudley’s and Daisy’s first mentors were a septet of Yokai martial artists renowned for their feral brutality in international martial arts tournaments. They were excited to train under them, as their children also heard great stories of Sesshoumaru’s deadly chokes, Shuran’s brute strength, Inuyasha’s rampaging brawn, Hakkaku’s undying charm, Ginta’s unwavering charisma, Ayame’s determined fierceness, and Shunran’s gorgeous elegance. Their parents reminded them that they were famous for winning against opponents stronger than they were. One example was during the winter 2004 Austrian Alps martial arts tournament. Day 1- Mixed Martial Arts with 33-year-old Sesshoumaru from Inuyasha (Kimuras) Day 2- Professional Wrestling with 32-year-old Shuran from Inuyasha (piledrivers) Day 3- Pankration with 32-year-old Inuyasha from Inuyasha (tracheal grip chokes) Day 4- Muay Boran with 31-year-old Hakkaku from Inuyasha (upward headbutts) Day 5- Lethwei with 31-year-old Ginta from Inuyasha (downward headbutts) Day 6- Kyuk Too Ki with 29-year-old Ayame from Inuyasha (Superman punches) Day 7- Shaolin Kung Fu with 28-year-old Shunran from Inuyasha (nerve strikes)   Week 2- The Radioactive Rebels of Shinjuku: Vicious Cyclones Cometh (Shido, Ban, Ginji, Kyuzo, Heihachi, Satella, and Akemi) After dealing with an enormous number of thrashings from the seven Yokai warriors with attitude, it was off to Shinjuku to encounter Dudley’s and Daisy’s next set of mentors. If they thought that their previous training week was ferocious, the second week was going to be more lethally taxing. Shido Fuyuki, Ban Mido, and Ginji Amano were famous for trapping their opponents using various joint locks and chokeholds. Kyuzo and Heihachi Hayashida possessed lightning-fast kicks. Satella Harvenheit and Akemi Takaishi used their strikes as weapons of mass destruction. Dudley and Daisy would need stealth to endure this week. Day 8- Japanese Jujutsu with 34-year-old Shido Fuyuki from GetBackers (guillotine chokes) Day 9- Brazilian Jujitsu with 34-year-old Ban Mido from GetBackers (arm triangles) Day 10- Judo with 33-year-old Ginji Amano from GetBackers (leg wheels) Day 11- Kajukenbo with 30-year-old Kyuzo from Samurai 7 (check kicks) Day 12- Qwan Ki Do with 30-year-old Heihachi Hayashida from Samurai 7 (spinning back kicks) Day 13- Nippon Kenpo with 30-year-old Satella Harvenheit from Chrono Crusade (ox jaw strikes) Day 14- Shorinji Kenpo with 28-year-old Akemi Takaishi from Shootfighter Tekken (palm heel strikes)   Week 3- The Quicksilver Quantums of Adachi: Missiles on Fire (Masaru, Tatsuya, Ryuichi, Mario, Hiroto, Sakurako, and Kuniko) The previous week went as fast as any of the chokeholds, kicks, and strikes that Dudley and Daisy endured. Their seven children still cheered for their parents and continued to be well-fed with the finest international cuisine that Tokyo had to offer. There was no time for rest, as Dudley and Daisy proceeded to visit martial arts mentors famous for their military precision. Tales were told of Masaru Aoki’s toughness, Tatsuya Kimura’s focus, Ryuichi Hayami’s accuracy, Mario Musicanova’s leverage, Hiroto Amagiwa’s maneuvering, Sakurako Yukihira’s directness, and Kuniko’s agility, and those tales came to full-fledged fruition. Day 15- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Masaru Aoki from Hajime no Ippo (uppercuts) Day 16- Kamogawa Mixed Martial Boxing with 32-year-old Tatsuya Kimura from Hajime no Ippo (hooks) Day 17- Otowa Mixed Martial Boxing with 31-year-old Ryuichi Hayami from Hajime no Ippo (jabs) Day 18- Luta Livre with 31-year-old Mario Musicanova from Geneshaft (armbars) Day 19- Pancrase with 30-year-old Hiroto Amagiwa from Geneshaft (leglocks) Day 20- Musti-yuddha with 28-year-old Sakurako Yukihira from Detective School Q (roundhouse kicks) Day 21- Adithada with…

The Power of Legendary Ranger Bromance

This “Character Mimics/Copies Power” meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to all of the wonderful people who fancy the thought of Inuyasha and Raymond being best friends, brothers from another mother, and the overall definition of beautiful bodacious bromance on the level of Jason David Frank’s and Jason Faunt’s real-life brotherhood. Sit back, relax, and revel in the phenomenal majesty of Inuyasha and Raymond inheriting the power of Jason David Frank’s and Jason Faunt’s warmly genuine bromance and being inspired to remain the closest of brothers thanks to this said power. In the real world, Hanshi Jason David Frank was a martial arts superstar specializing in Shotokan Karate, Wado-Ryu Karate, Taekwondo, Judo, Brazilian Jujitsu, Muay Thai, and Jeet Kune Do renowned for his role as Tommy Oliver in the Power Rangers franchise, created his hybrid martial art Toso Kune Do, and embarked on a short-lived Mixed Martial Arts career in 2010, while Coach Jason Faunt is a television and film star renowned for his athletic beginnings in baseball, basketball, and football before gaining fame as Wes Collins also in the Power Rangers franchise. In the fictional world, Inuyasha is a dog yokai martial artist who is a champion in Pankration with a background in Kyokushin Karate, Judo, Combat Sambo, Kapu Kuialua, Ssireum, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Wrestling, while Raymond is a bodybuilder and gym instructor with some knowledge of wrestling. Hanshi Frank may have fierce power. Coach Faunt may have athleticism. Inuyasha may have brute strength. Raymond may have magnificent muscles. Nonetheless, what defines their epic bromances is the genuine power of united brotherhood. An addendum worth mentioning from the previous submission regarding Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s bromance, brotherhood, and friendship being akin to the ones that Hanshi Frank and Coach Faunt possess is how Faunt always mentions that Frank is the best friend who is akin to his mentor and older brother. If you watched Faunt’s tribute to Frank, who passed away nearly ten months ago, he emphasizes how important he is as a big brother mentor who showed him the martial arts ropes and always hired him for projects even to the point where his wife remarks that they would happily communicate with each other almost like schoolgirls. That is the exact vibe I envision for Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s epic bromance because Raymond, like how Faunt looks up to Frank like a big brother mentor in real life, would also look up to Inuyasha like a big brother mentor who shows him how to perform submission holds and punches in Pankration. Inuyasha is always willing to have him on board for sparring sessions, campaigning for him in various martial arts tournaments, and using his bodybuilding routine as preliminary spectacles. Hanshi Frank’s and Coach Faunt’s exceptionally epic bromance as Tommy and Wes in the Power Rangers franchise as well as in real life are the powers needed for Inuyasha and Raymond to remain together best brothers from another mother. While Frank’s powerful martial arts expertise and Faunt’s exceptional sportsmanship do have an amazing effect on Inuyasha’s ferocious combat prowess in Pankration and Raymond’s virile charisma in bodybuilding, it is how both Power Rangers actors prevail in their camaraderie. Frank and Faunt would even get into character as Tommy and Wes to bless Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s beautiful bromance. Frank as Tommy would remark how Inuyasha has kept the Inurangers franchise afloat thanks to his leadership, courage, and strength and bless him with the responsibility of being a great big brother to Raymond. Faunt as Wes would salute Raymond for his charm, kindness, and charisma underneath those big muscles and for being a loyal ally to the Inurangers and bless him with the joy of being under Inuyasha’s wing as his little brother. Their brotherhood will last for ages. Frank as Tommy and Faunt as Wes blessing Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s epic bromance, brotherhood, and fraternal friendship would empower both Inuyasha and Raymond to use their combined physical prowess and combat capabilities for justice and righteousness. Inuyasha’s feral ferocity in Pankration and Raymond’s magnificent muscles as a bodybuilder can only work effectively if they work together and not apart. When criminals, felons, abusers, and predators dare to besmirch benevolence, Inuyasha and Raymond would use their combined strength and power to stop them. Raymond has all the bearhugs, piledrivers, chokeholds, choke grips, sharpshooters, drop kicks, and hammer fists in his arsenal to hold felons down, while Inuyasha has the hammer fists, double axe handles, tracheal grip chokes, torture racks, neck cranks, and rear naked chokeholds to finish them off. Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s powerful brotherhood and combined combat prowess can also empower them to learn a lot from each other and even better each other in terms of their physical prowess and acquiring new skills in combat. The most important attribute that the power of Jason David Frank’s and Jason Faunt’s epic bromance has on Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s unbreakable brotherhood is the positive impact that it has on their families. Frank and Faunt, as married family men married to fine wives with equally fine children, are both fathers who have seen their children grow well and have made sure that they are with them every step of the way. Inuyasha’s and Raymond’s duties and responsibilities as husbands and fathers would also be empowered by Frank’s and Faunt’s power of legendary Ranger bromance to set great examples for their wives and children. Inuyasha will always make sure that he remains the strong Alpha Male warrior king to Ayame’s lady high warrior queen and be the great father he can be to his seven strong sons and seven determined daughters. Raymond will also do his part in being a loyal husband to Alex and raise his five sons to be strong and his two daughters to never back down from challenges. Familial unity is what will always keep Inuyasha and Raymond together in their fatherly and spousal duties. Kinetic combat skills, unparalleled athleticism, and phenomenal physical prowess may define Hanshi Frank’s and Coach…
