Well, if they ever do adapt Samurai/Super Samurai into a movie trilogy, They won’t Andrew Gray is Spanish and Native American and far from white passing but okay Christ you’re a tool. Interesting that you take no issue with multiple seasons of Power Rangers in a row having a white male lead. Or the 12 year gap of no black female rangers or that it took 22 years to get a black pink ranger. Or that every yellow ranger since Operation Overdrive had been a white person with blonde hair. But no a number of recent seasons have a non-white male lead and you whine about forced diversity because you form your entire opinions and political knowledge off crappy alt right youtube videos.

You know watching the comparison videos of Shinkenger and Samurai/Super Samurai on YouTube made me realize how much I despised seeing Power Rangers on cable TV back in 2011. I thought we had been given at least one ray of hope for franchise after it was announced that Disney sold the rights to Power Rangers back then. But, now that I look back at the Neo-Saban era after all these years. Particularly Samurai and Megaforce...I was wrong. And naive. Like everyone else. Thankfully, most of the main cast members of Samurai and Super Samurai have moved onto better things, hopefully. And I pray that they get better scripts to work with from now on. Depending on if any of them is still active and are continuing to pursue their careers as actors. Although, it's unfortunate to hear about Rick Mendina's scandal from 2015 and how it ruined his career as an actor and now he's out on parole, seven years later and won't be back for the franchise because of his criminal background. Rene Naufahu/Mentor Jii was also facing charges for sexual assault, years ago and it's very unlikely that he's not gonna make a comeback as well. So yeah, both Mr. Mendina and Mr. Naufahu are screwed because of their actions and they're not gonna be given anymore offers to star in movies or TV shows. It's sad, really?!
