If TV-Nihon made a wiki, would people help us fill it with useful info? I'm sure there's other people like me who enjoys data gathering and organizing. Let me know if you'd be interested in participating in such a thing.

My favorite part is the robots from anime series that I'm familiar with.
By the way, if you have problems playing your video, be sure to check to make sure it's complete and not corrupt. You can do this by:
A) Pointing a torrent at it. If it's not complete, the torrent will resume it and complete it (eventually, assuming there's seeds).
B) Checking the CRC. RapidCRC is good for that:

Also, stop using your system's default video player.
Try Gom player, VLC, or Media Player Classic

Eh, you can Google the rest.
What it doesn't need is a bunch of filler original heroes.
Gah!

Every year we get the same sort of questions, so I thought I'd answer them here:
1) Will you do blah blah blah movie?
A: Yup. Just like we've subbed every other movie related to the series we work on. This is the sort of question that I think people ask and then a second later go, "Oh wait, that's kind of a dumb question. I know the answer to that already." Either that or people see the raw up and they ask that while secretly thinking, "When are you going to release this movie?" Yeah, maybe it's more the latter, actually.
And yeah, we're doing the Versus Gavan movie when it comes out later this month.
2) Why is the Sentai summer movie so short? Why does this movie seem like an action movie with almost no story? Etc.
A: It's always that short since it's a double feature with the Kamen Rider movie. They tend to run 20 minutes, so this being a 30 minute one is relatively long for this kind of movie. If you don't believe me, check the other Sentai summer movies. Short movie is short, but people will complain about that aspect of it every year regardless of this fact.
And now, a word from our forums: "It was a pretty good brainless action movie." "I've definitely seen worse." "It seemed sufficiently entertaining for a filler movie."
Let's not damn them with too much praise, guys.

Server downtime
First, apologies to everyone for the site down time. Apparently instead of finishing off Gokaiger and DaiRanger, the universe saw fit to have our harddrive melt into goo instead.
It was frustrating for everyone.You guys couldn't get our releases, and we didn't have some of the tools which we used to do our work. It was just bad all around. I might be a few days before things stable out, so please bear with us and let's all try to work together to reach normalcy once more.
Gokai 51 released. More releases as things get seeded.
See you, pirates.

Sentai kind of always is what it is, a story about a group of people. It has accrued a million tropes by this point, but it stays entertaining because it's basically about relationships. And even though it's stupid Power Rangers fodder for kids, a story that's about people is going to have universal appeal.
50 Released
Edit:
By the way, I kind of changed my format for my "Let's learn Japanese thread". I'm still going through the intro to katakana part, but for the kanji, I'm going through and talking about interesting words from a series. Hopefully it'll be more relevant to people who are familiar with the show. So far, I'm working through completed Sentai series backwards. Went through Gosei to Go-On, will do Geki soon.

Gokaiger 5 March 20, 2011 Commentary by Sen-chan (Itou Yousuke)
So this is an interesting release for us. Ever since we found the footage for this, we've known that we wanted to do it. (I believe it's just from Itou Yousuke's ustream archive, so you might be able to downloads/stream the full thing still)
The thing is... there was a large technical hurdle. We knew we wanted to overlay Sen's video onto the actual episode itself, but we didn't know how. We thought we'd need some crazy video editing software or something. (Turns out it's actual a very simple filter in avisynth.)
The other problem we had is that we didn't know how long the commercial breaks were (they're not included in our raws). So I had to kind of guess on that based on Sen's comments. Not a bad job, eh? The actual sub is from the Blu-ray rip, but the 199 Heroes promo at the end is from the original release. You have no idea how convoluted my setup was at the end XD
Sorry for the sloppy composition for the first few clips. As you may have gathered, Sen-chan (Itou Yousuke) started his video feed nearly 40 minutes before the show started. So I wanted to sub some stuff, but cut out the hundreds of "Good morning!" "Here's the number of people watching the feed now!" filler that was the first 37 minutes.
Other random things to take into consideration was where to position's Sen's commentary lines during the actual show and where to put his video. Originally Sen's video covered up the bottom subtitles, but I was able to clip it so that it's visible now.
