What's also tragic about mecha is that some of them were uncontrollable at first. These are the following: Dr. Yamagata created the Galaxy Robo in Maskman to provide the Maskmen another robot in the future. He was also a close friend of Director Sanjoru Sugata. While it was undergoing test pilot, the robot went berserk on its own killing its own pilot. The Maskmen went to find it since Great Five was buried underground, however Dr. Yamagata's daughter objected to the plan because it reminded her of her father's death. It was unstable at first but through aura power meditation, the Maskmen were able to stabilize it and rescue the buried Great Five robot. In the finale, it defeated Zeba. The Red Puncher in Ohranger was another except it was only piloted by Hoshino Gorou/Oh Red. In the past, UAOH's top leading scientist (played by Ryohei Kobayashi) tested the robot but he died in the process because it was unstable. A tribute to Maskman's Galaxy Robo, also the ...

Here are some of the secondary combining robots in Super Sentai: Live Boxer was piloted by Green Rhino and Black Bison. Kakure Daishogun- The very first in the list used by all rangers. Ohblocker Robo- The second in the list. It was used to kill Emperor Bacchus Wrath. The Grand Liner was used by the Gogo V siblings. It was destroyed by Salamandes Dragon and Zlypheza II later on in the series. Victory Mars was the best Gogo V robot IMO. It was used in a space mission. These were piloted by the sixth rangers: Gaohunter was the combination of Gao Alligator, Gao Wolf and Gao Hammerhead piloted by Shirogane/Gao Silver. The Bouken Siren Builder was piloted by Eiji Takaoka.

I would like to honor the scientists in Super Sentai, they are: Dr. Hongo- He appeared only for a FEW episodes. He appeared from episodes 1-2 then he returned in episode 49. Dr. Kyutaro Yumeno- He is the mentor of the Dynaman team and head of the invention center. Professor Shibata who was Gou Shirou's missing father helped the Biomen during the last few episodes. He died sacrificing himself to save them from captivity. Dr. Tokimura (this is not the actual photo but a screen shot of the actor) was the father of Sara/Yellow Flash. Dr. Hoshi- He only appeared for two episodes, after that he was killed. Quite tragic really. He was the one who created the Liveman force. Sanjoru Sugata is the one who invented the Maskmen's mecha save the Galaxy Robo which was invented by a friend of his who died while piloting it. Dr. Dazai- He is the mentor of the Turborangers and was assisted by Seelon. Aya Ogadiri- First female scientist and also the first female commander. Councilor Miura wa...

Here's a summary of the ultimate combinations or "Ultrazords" in Super Sentai. They are: The first one was in Turboranger, where the Super Turbo Robot would dock into the Turbo Builder Robot Mode. It fired the Super Turbo Builder Beam. It was first used against Ragorn in episode 39 and second, in the final episode to destroy the Bouma Palace. We had the Max Magma from Fiveman. Unlike the Turbo Builder, this was able to move around. It was first used in Fiveman episode 29 where they fought against the combined monster Crab-Ant Man when the Super Five Robo failed. In the final episode, it wasn't able to stand against Vulgyre resulting to Magmabase' destruction. The Kyokyoku Daizyujin was the ultimate shell of the dinosaur god. It was first used to counter Lokar/Dai Satan in episode 31. It was used more than once in the series. It finally destroyed Dai Satan in the final battle, in contrast to MMPR season one where Lokar wasn't destroyed. Unlike the othe...

Well I kind of want to do some "scientific entries" as of late. Well, I may keep talking about mecha or anything science-related for Super Sentai for the whole month with ice breakers in between. I finally decided to make an entry on the transporting mecha in Super Sentai. These mecha were called and they housed specific mecha which is in contrast to today's Sentai's modus operandi which the mecha were immediately launched for combining. Goranger had two of them. The first one was known as the Varibloom (right) and later the Varideen (left) which I felt like was a tribute to Gatchaman. JAKQ used the Sky Ace. Battle Fever J used the Battle Shark. It launched Battle Fever Robo into battle. The Denzimen used the Denzi Tiger which transported the Denzifighter/Daidenzin into battle. Sun Vulcan used the Jaguar Vulcan Flying Fortress in transporting the mecha components into battle. Other similar fortresses were: The Goggle Caesar from Goggle V- It was h...
