Samurai Sentai Shinkenger

THE SUMMARY

For 18 generations, samurai of the Shiba House have suppressed the evil intentions of the Gedoushu, malevolent spirits that enter the world of the living from gaps between buildings and other structures from the Sanzu River. Now, the youngest head of the Shiba Clan, Takeru Shiba as Shinken Red must gather his four vassals; Ryunosuke Ikenami as Shinken Blue, Mako Shiraishi as Shinken Pink, Chiaki Tani as Shinken Green and Kotoha Hanaori as Shinken Yellow in order to battle the Gedoushu as the Shinkengers. And they later are joined by Genta Umemori as Shinken Gold who is a childhood friend of Takeru.

Before this, I was always wondering whether Toei company would produce Sentai the Samurai type in future after I watched Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger. Now it is coming to be realized. Like Hurricanger, the Japanese culture are mostly emphasized on it. Not only that, the Gedoushu are also based on the Japanese folkore myth! O.O It's very great to see the monster designed into a creative modification after the Japanese folkore myth.

The Shinkenger are quite pleasantly entertaining as they provide comedy into their characters. They are are like children, still need attention from each one. Sometimes they do the silly or stupid thing like they want to show off their Shinkenmaru yet their skill can be troublesome! That's why it ended up by having them scolded by their Jii. I often laugh when they do like that. They may be children in their appearance but really noble at their heart when they are fighting with Gedoushu, without doubting whether their life would be at stake or not, they will fight until the end.

Honestly in my opinion, I found that the mecha as Origami are very ugly and weird. >.<" But when they are combined into Samurai, my jaws dropped down! It's so cool. The Origami can be changed into Emblem mode from Animal mode or vice versa, you see the Shinkengers are holding it. That's it which they can enlarge it using the Shinkenmaru as control sticks. Wow, I never expect that their Origami can be animated at own will. It are very cute "mini fight" when an Origami is attacking other Origami. Hehehe XD
