Hi, I am new on this website. My name is Shawn & I am from Iowa which is in the heart of the United States. I discovered my passion for Japan when I realized all most the things I liked were from Japan. Like Pokemon, DrangonBallZ & Power Rangers. I am currently in my third year of high school (in the US most high schools are 4 year.) & I am taking Japanese class at my school. I am also starting to learn the language independently so if someone on here is already in fluent in Japanese maybe you can help & become my friend? I can read Hiragana & Katakana & I have learned a little Kanji on my own. I can also have basic conversations in Japanese. That's enough about me though I want to hear about you guys now.

Hello, Shawn. Hajimemashite. I'm Hirashin, a Japanese man.

I know Pokemon and Dragonball Z, but I'm not sure about Power Rangers.
Would you tell me what it is like?

hello 2 both of you. Yea like mentioned above it's based off Super Sentai. I believe it started in Japan in 1992 & came here to America in 1993 but it has some big changes compared to the Japanese version & used to be a big thing here back in the 90's.

They kept the gattai scenes and rerecorded the rest with their own actors.

Thank you for the explanation for Power rangers. Hmm... I think I saw some of Gorenjaa (literally Five Rangers?) series.
