Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
It seems wierd to me that Gai Yuki got killed off so randomly in Jetman. I mean he didn't even die saving the worked. He just randomly got killed chasing a mugger, long after the Jetman saved the world. Seems kinda random to kill him off so randomly at the end. Its like they wanted to shoehorn in some drama. It seems pretty rare for Sentai to do this to one of its Rangers.

I really liked that part actually. It made a nice dramatic end to the series. It was surprising but it worked. It was something thats not commonly done and not really done now. And really I dont expect something like that to happen again.
But don't forget Burai. He is the only other major death that I can think of. |
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I know. But Burai's death was part of the main plot. It wasn't an after thought it the finalie.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I don't like the idea of Rangers dying. I'm glad MMPR didn't have Tommy die. Its far too depressing for Power Rangers. And if I was big Super Sentai plan, I would say the same thing about characters dying in that franchise too.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I always thought that was a little wierd when I first read about it. Never had a chance to watch Jetman. But it does seem out of left field.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I would have rather him die in the final than after chasing some mugger. A little too soap oprah for me.
The Burai storyline was perfect and made a lot of sense. It added to the overal story. It really completed Geki's own arch. |
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Kinda stupid for him to die like that..I.agree with you guys, Burai's death was so much better.
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Wow didn't even know Black Condor died? Especially not that way! I always thought Burai was the only Sentai hero to die. I don't really know what to think. On one hand itn adds some surprise drama. But on the other, it would make more sense to kiill him off due to Ranger stuff.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I thought it was fine. Clearly just something they wanted to do to surprise everyone and add a touch of excitement. Not a bad thing to try. Pretty cool that its very rare. And seldom happened like that.
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Yeah, but shocking people doesn't mean good. It came off like such an after thought. If they did something like that now everyone would be pissed.

Niella also died because of her using the full extent of the Gatekeeper powers. Master Mao died. We had at least two deaths during RPM with Summer's Butler and Scott's brother. |
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
They were able to do that because most of those were non human characters. And in Mao's case he continued to live on as a spirit.

I'm fine with death in Power Rangers if it makes sense. I dont think they will ever kill off a Ranger. The closet we will get is Alex's "death". Zordon's made perfect sense. He sacrificed himself to save the Universe. There needed to be a consequence to the Z Wave or it would have meant nothing. I would never want this removed from Canon.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Didn't all the TimeRangers except Red die?
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Well Timefire died. So he is a good example to add to the list. The others didn't really die. History was changed so they faded from existance in front of Red. He than ran into lookalikes of his teammates.
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Can't believe I forgot to mention that. I thought timeranger was bueatiful. It was so tragic to see Yuri and the others fade away just as she admited her love for TimeRed. And of course , Timefire's death was very sad. Too bad they couldn't have Eric get killed off too. It was lame that he just broke his arm in the end. Another example why Sentai ia always better. Even when PR tries a to be like it.

Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Why didn't Timered fade from existance too?
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
He was from the present like Wes was in Time Force. His existance continued in the new timeline. It was wierd that Time Yellow's baby didn't fade away. But I guess that would have been too cruel. And was put it for narative closure.
I like Sentai but I think PR can be just as good. They would never have been able to kill off Eric anyway. Eric was fine as his own character. |
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
I would have loved it if Tommy died like Braui. I'd have so much more respect for MMPR if they did that.
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
Would have saved us from Tommy taking over the show. I probably would have actually liked Tommy if they went that route. Too bad they were obssessed with treating him like a god.
|
Re: Did it seem random that Black Condor died in Jetman?
No way guys! Tommy dying would have killed the franchise. Tommy was the franchise and still is in some ways.
