Message boards and twitter are on fire with discussion over a newly leaked image from “Gokaiger VS. Gavan” where the entire team of Rangers transforms into an all pink team! There’s still no word on the reason why they choose an all Pink team or how it will tie into the movie. There is an all white transformation as well.
Here’s the break down:
(I’m guessing by stance and how they usually form the row of 6)
Doc/GokaiGreen as DynaPink from Dynaman
Luka/GokaiYellow as BoukenPink from Boukenger (Operation Overdrive)
Gai/GokaiSilver as Pink Flash from Flashman
Marvelous/GokaiRed as Pteraranger from Zyuranger (Mighty Morphin’)
Joe/GokaiBlue as FivePink from Fiveman
Ahim/GokaiPink as MegaPink from Megaranger (in Space)
As soon as the picture hit sites there was a balance between massive support and massive bits of annoying comments such as
“Pink is a girls color!” or “That looks gay!”
However, I choose to focus on how awesome this step is, we have never seen Male Pink Rangers in Sentai or Ranger history and I think its completely and totally awesome. Sadly, I really don’t think that we will see this change used in the adaptation for Power Rangers for exactly the reasons the haters use. It’s not a boy color.
There is still a question if we will even see Kimberly Crossman transform into the Female Red Ranger in the second half of Samurai. Only time will tell if we get either of these transformations! Personally, I think we need to stop taking the gender-based color schemes to heart. We’ve seen Male Yellow and Female Blue and even a Male Violet Ranger! Hopefully soon the Red Female will emerge!
The Rangers also transform into an all White Team which has traditionally been a Male color, with only a few White Female Rangers.
Here’s the breakdown:
Luka/GokaiYellow as GaoWhite from Gaoranger (Wild Force)
Joe/GokaiBlue as Kibaranger from Dairanger (Mighty Morphin’)
Marvelous/GokaiRed as Big One from JAKQ
Gai/GokaiSilver as DekaBreak from Dekaranger (SPD)
Don/GokaiGreen as Abarekiller from Abaranger (Dino Thunder)
Ahim/GokaiPink as GekiChopper from Gekiranger (Jungle Fury)
The Gokaigers have done all 6th Rangers and all Red Rangers before but I don’t think an all White Ranger team has been utlized fully!
I love these all one color teams and let’s hope we get an all Blue/Green/Yellow teams in the episodes to follow!
What do you think about the all Pink or all White team?
What about the Gender bending?
