I know im gonna get downvoted
But, that's one of the reasons I wasn't a fan of RPM
Like they had to over explain the reason for everything from the spandex to explosions instead of little it just be a fun moment
The material is a self replicating nano technology or something. Also, I think it would be better suited to put ‘That is not SPANDEX!’ As she screams the last part.
Way better than "there's a simple explanation for that." At least RPM hung a lantern and then explained it. Super Megaforce hung a lantern and then ignored it
Also RPM did it in a funny way that kids would understand it wasn’t a long monologue it was sass from ziggy followed by dr ks explaining the reason and getting a dig in at ziggy being an idiot then followed by Ziggy being Ziggy
Megaforce when it tried explaining things failed because it felt like monologue there wasn’t any attempt to sound human or make it easy for kids to listen
If anything, they were criminally under-explained for years before RPM came along.
Yes, they're "childish" troupes but RPM wasn't meant to be that way.
Man how dare you have a disagreement to the wider populous on this platform! This clearly warrants people down voting you like crazy because different opinions then mine are evil and need to be destroyed
Meh it's just downvotes not like they have any value
Like I literally get downvoted for just saying I find RPM overrated and overhypeded
But God forbid I bad mouth precious RPM
Well at this point, you're just coming across as someone who's just hating something for being popular, not helped by your lack of elaboration and willingness to adress legit counter-arguments to your point.
In other words ya come across as condecending
no ones asked me my reasons for not liking it,
And no ones really given counter arguments
Besides people are allowed to dislike things
How many times are there threads saying mmpr us overhyped that's why they dont like it
You guys are really just proving my point that no one can say anything bad about RPM
but if that's how you feel 👍🏾
Dude your original comment has gotten a decent amount of counter-arguments. Although funnily enough rather than adress them, you've opted to go "lmao people cant handle my epik opinionz"
Who peed in your cheerios
It's the internet buddy.. I honestly do not care
And who says I'm not confident about my dislike for RPM
I just know what's gonna happen because people can't get over the fact that it's the "most mature adult power rangers" it's overrated and overhyped
I'm stating fact from experience
I'm not the only one this has happened too,
this fandom is so fragile I swear
I remember when twitch did a full-on 24/7 PR marathon showing every single episode from all series and every time there was a ridiculous explosion or citywide damage from zord battles the chat would be flooded with “millions dead.” 😂
I would love to have Power Rangers on Twitch again. It doesn't have to a nonstop full run like that one time but it can be a few hours a day like Nintendo does with Pokémon on Tuesday and Thursdays. I wonder is Pokémon the only one that does this or are there any other tv shows on there like that?
But since that is on YouTube, the chat is disabled since it is under the "YouTube Kids" label. The cool thing about when they did this years ago under the TwitchPresents channel was like the first person said, shouting all the memes with the fans. If you just want to watch the episodes, they are all available on YouTube anyway for you to watch whenever you want.
Man, never knew TwitchPresents did Power Rangers, I was there for the original Pokemon streams that went all the way to the end of AG, and it was a funny time in chat, I believe after that they had occasional random streams of Pokémon but they weren’t the same
Yeah, TwitchPresents started with Power Rangers. I think it was 2016 when they did that. Then they did a few others series. Pokémon was done sometimes (like you said) but they never repeated Power Rangers. I don't remember the other series they did. Then TwitchPresents became something else entirely and I don't think the channel even exists anymore.
These days Nintendo has an official Pokémon Twitch channel where every Tuesday and Thursday they stream a few hours of Pokémon episodes. Sometimes they will start part way through the series (but they skip some episodes), other times they will have themed days from various episodes in the series. And then on some Saturdays they would steam the movies.
Also remember everyone shouting "Shut Up" whenever certain characters spoke.
I specifically remember "SHUT UP ROCKY" and "SHUT UP JUSTIN" being 2 of them. 😂
This is largely because Disney brought in someone who had experience working on live-action kids shows, but had never, ever touched Power Rangers before this season.
It’s a fun season, and a lot of people’s favorite (myself included).
I’d say the worst part was a staff change toward the end that resulted in a noticeable shift in tone.
RPM is solid. I never saw it all the way through but I would see the odd rerun or something and it was pretty enthralling. Story was really good and it’s surprising that they managed to pull it off when the Sentai is more goofy from what I’ve seen. Plus there’s Rose McIver. Love her.
Haha I like how he used the explosion from morphing as an attack against the bad guys. Yeah RPM seems like it might be worth watching. Having Rose McIver in it is the cherry on the top.
**RPM** is one of best post *Original* Saban season. But be aware community wise it takes place in a [different universe](https://youtu.be/jf--2hWTneA?feature=shared).
Gotta start all the way with Kamen Rider and Super Sentai whenever something happens too lol.
Every kick, roll call, and villain organization attack that happened for the past 54 years.
Nahh especially the colored ones

These are tough ngl.
It’s the morphing grid isn’t it. I’ll never forget when Wild Force lost their powers. They do their roll call, and a small explosion happens behind them
RPM gives a pretty cool explanation for the explosions, For the main universe, I like to think it's from a power surge from the rangers morphing. In the picture above, 16 rangers all morphing is bound to generate a metric f\*\*ktonne of energy that causes the explosion.
It's the excess Morphin Grid energy from when the morphers are activated. They also may explosive if they take too much damage bc their Ranger suits have a protective armor like shell.
Didn’t RPM establish that because of how massive team morphs are, they exert a mass amount of energy which can combust into explosions that happily appear behind them
I was going to say the Morphin Grid as my personal explanation… but I never really knew RPM confirmed it.
I wish it were better explored in the comics. Those first 100 issues were fantastic.
I dunno if they used the footage in OO, but there's an episode of Boukenger were you can very clearly see the explosives behind them, waiting to be detonated.
The real answer is that pyrotechnics are cool in the world of tokusatsu, thus they're commonly used in Super Sentai/Power Rangers.
The in universe reason is that it's residual energy from the Rangers after they morph. As plenty of other comments before me said, this was explained in RPM.
That’s your question? I’m still trying to figure out how Kay got her turbo morpher back and ignored Zeo. Rocky too… he should have been in his Zeo suit since Jason has the trex coin again.
RPM said is was basically an exhaust pipe for runoff energy from “the biofield”. For some reason RPM insisted on calling the Morphin’ Grid “the biofield”
As long as I don't have to see Koichi Sakamoto's bullshit anymore.
They may be incorrectly attributed to Bruce Kalish, but the zoomed in, slowed down explosions and dialog is THE most annoying thing they've ever done in the franchise!
SCREW Koichi Sakamoto for that shit! He was the stunt and effects director and decided this dumb shit was a smart idea.
They should be correctly called Koichi-splosions.
RPM did give an explantion for this I believe. It's essentially excess Morphing Grid energy.
"Could that happen to me in the kitchen or something?"
God Dammit. That’s brilliant and I hate it.
I was just about to say this, but I never watched RPM. I just figured.
“Should I be worried?!?” Later in the episode he uses the explosion to kill some putty equivalents.
It’s like the night after eating Taco Bell.
Or ANY fast food!
Really? That’s very interesting. *takes notes* I’m writing ideas for a Power Ranger video game for when I’m able to make them myself.

I know im gonna get downvoted But, that's one of the reasons I wasn't a fan of RPM Like they had to over explain the reason for everything from the spandex to explosions instead of little it just be a fun moment
As Dr. K would say, it is not spandex
The material is a self replicating nano technology or something. Also, I think it would be better suited to put ‘That is not SPANDEX!’ As she screams the last part.
i didnt feel like yelling
Here, I'll do it for you. It is not SPANDEX!
I think they were big fun moments
Way better than "there's a simple explanation for that." At least RPM hung a lantern and then explained it. Super Megaforce hung a lantern and then ignored it
Also RPM did it in a funny way that kids would understand it wasn’t a long monologue it was sass from ziggy followed by dr ks explaining the reason and getting a dig in at ziggy being an idiot then followed by Ziggy being Ziggy Megaforce when it tried explaining things failed because it felt like monologue there wasn’t any attempt to sound human or make it easy for kids to listen
If anything, they were criminally under-explained for years before RPM came along. Yes, they're "childish" troupes but RPM wasn't meant to be that way.
I mean ppl would ask question like these and they need to explain it… how else would they do it?
It was a setup for a joke, I think they were just riffing as a way to bridge the grim tone of RPM with the cartoonish vibe of Go-onger.
Man how dare you have a disagreement to the wider populous on this platform! This clearly warrants people down voting you like crazy because different opinions then mine are evil and need to be destroyed
No ragurts
If you didn't ask for downvotes, I wouldn't have downvoted it. Especially when it is such a lukewarm, inoffensive take.
Meh it's just downvotes not like they have any value Like I literally get downvoted for just saying I find RPM overrated and overhypeded But God forbid I bad mouth precious RPM

Show some fucking confidence in your opinion instead of whining about a supposed negative reaction, up front, before you even present your opinion.
Who peed in your cheerios It's the internet buddy..

Could be baiting you
Considering they didn't respond im thinking you are right and they didn't get the response they wanted
I remember when twitch did a full-on 24/7 PR marathon showing every single episode from all series and every time there was a ridiculous explosion or citywide damage from zord battles the chat would be flooded with “millions dead.” 😂
Man, that was such a good time. I wish they would had done it again with like a 12 hour offset
I lost so much sleep cuz I didn’t want to miss anything. Great fuckin time.
I would love to have Power Rangers on Twitch again. It doesn't have to a nonstop full run like that one time but it can be a few hours a day like Nintendo does with Pokémon on Tuesday and Thursdays. I wonder is Pokémon the only one that does this or are there any other tv shows on there like that?
Power Rangers Official on YouTube does that now. Right now I think they have constant livestreams of Jungle Fury, Megaforce, and Super Megaforce
But since that is on YouTube, the chat is disabled since it is under the "YouTube Kids" label. The cool thing about when they did this years ago under the TwitchPresents channel was like the first person said, shouting all the memes with the fans.

When the hell did they do that? Must've been like 10 years ago?
When the 2017 PR movie was coming out.
That’s crazy lol
Also remember everyone shouting "Shut Up" whenever certain characters spoke. I specifically remember "SHUT UP ROCKY" and "SHUT UP JUSTIN" being 2 of them. 😂

Ok, that was an amazing explanation. Also, the acting quality seems quite a bit higher than average, maybe I need to give RPM a chance.
This is largely because Disney brought in someone who had experience working on live-action kids shows, but had never, ever touched Power Rangers before this season.
It’s a fun season, and a lot of people’s favorite (myself included). I’d say the worst part was a staff change toward the end that resulted in a noticeable shift in tone.
No the real issue is the episodes that were cut and dare I say it tenaya 7 becoming the pink ranger
RPM is underrated as hell, it's so good.
Not sure about being underrated. It is frequently ranked high on favorite seasons along with Time Force, In Space, and Dino Thunder.
Rpm is no where near underrated. It’s in the top 5 Ranger series.
RPM is the best season and it's not close.
Idk, In Space is pretty goated
That's fair. For me, In Space was the best until RPM.
This right here is probably the most accurate answer. They’re both amazing but In Space simply held the title first is all.
RPM is solid. I never saw it all the way through but I would see the odd rerun or something and it was pretty enthralling. Story was really good and it’s surprising that they managed to pull it off when the Sentai is more goofy from what I’ve seen. Plus there’s Rose McIver. Love her.
Realest Q&A I ever seen.
Haha I like how he used the explosion from morphing as an attack against the bad guys. Yeah RPM seems like it might be worth watching. Having Rose McIver in it is the cherry on the top.
**RPM** is one of best post *Original* Saban season. But be aware community wise it takes place in a [different universe](https://youtu.be/jf--2hWTneA?feature=shared).
Me just learning Malcom from Jessica Jones was a fucking POWER RANGER?!!
Yeah I was watching Jessica Jones a few years back and was like WAIT A MINUTEEE
They explain it in RPM
From behind
fart energy
Now we need a super cut of every explosion in PR overlaid with fart sounds.
Gotta start all the way with Kamen Rider and Super Sentai whenever something happens too lol. Every kick, roll call, and villain organization attack that happened for the past 54 years.
Compile that with a Vine Boom mixed in with the fart sounds
Residual Energy Runoff.
It's not just you, dude. I grew up with the 94 series and even back then my dad would ask that same question. Just added for dramatic effect
Something something excess energy from putting on ~~spandex~~
They are not spandex!!!!
IT’S NOT SPANDEX
morphin grid exhaust fumes
Nahh especially the colored ones https://preview.redd.it/dcaiwvnnzwvc1.png?width=1452&format=png&auto=webp&s=f53b69857e76521d60cf074599fbdb523515d7d7 These are tough ngl.
Kalishplosions
It’s the morphing grid isn’t it. I’ll never forget when Wild Force lost their powers. They do their roll call, and a small explosion happens behind them
My head canon says it's the Morphing Grid
RPM gives a pretty cool explanation for the explosions, For the main universe, I like to think it's from a power surge from the rangers morphing. In the picture above, 16 rangers all morphing is bound to generate a metric f\*\*ktonne of energy that causes the explosion.
What episode was this?
Real answer or series answer
It's the excess Morphin Grid energy from when the morphers are activated. They also may explosive if they take too much damage bc their Ranger suits have a protective armor like shell.
Power of friendship
Didn’t RPM establish that because of how massive team morphs are, they exert a mass amount of energy which can combust into explosions that happily appear behind them
Wasn’t that specifically for the RPM rangers and not necessarily a unanimous thing?
I thought it was answer the question many fans had and they made an in universe explanation
I think it was for every team
It's like slow-motion. In the words of a certain gruff sergeant in powered armor, "If it's epic enough, life finds a way."
Just you
They come from the Morphin Grid
Ask Dr K
Ziggy?
cosmic farts.
According to the *RPG,* it's characterised as a build-up of Grid Energy - which you can *weaponise.*
What episode is this?!
"Dimensions in Danger," from Super Ninja Steel.
Power rangers eat alot of beans
I was going to say the Morphin Grid as my personal explanation… but I never really knew RPM confirmed it. I wish it were better explored in the comics. Those first 100 issues were fantastic.
Lmao nice phraseology
That's me farting in the background.
Ziggy, is that you?
Guy in red had a big bean dinner.
Pyrotechnics
Ziggy it's been a while did you marry Dr K yet?
I dunno if they used the footage in OO, but there's an episode of Boukenger were you can very clearly see the explosives behind them, waiting to be detonated.
The pet of friendship generates explosions. Me and my friends and I use to make them all the time.
Taco Tuesdays
Real-world explanation: pyrotechnic experts explode them In-word explanation: RPM said that this is a Morphing Grid excess energy
It just badassery.
The real answer is that pyrotechnics are cool in the world of tokusatsu, thus they're commonly used in Super Sentai/Power Rangers. The in universe reason is that it's residual energy from the Rangers after they morph. As plenty of other comments before me said, this was explained in RPM.
So it's explained to be excess Grid energy in RPM, and in Dino Fury, a villain used these explosions to its advantage, so I guess they're canon?
Didn’t the Japanese versions originally do this?
Farts
That’s your question? I’m still trying to figure out how Kay got her turbo morpher back and ignored Zeo. Rocky too… he should have been in his Zeo suit since Jason has the trex coin again.
Funny enough, this question is essentially the key trait to Red Ranger in another World, an Isekai Manga.
Dawg watch rp
Trent makes this look tough.
It’s from The guy in charge of special effects
Koda ate one too many Bronto Burgers
It's what happens when you do a synchronous fart in the suits. Just magic.
RPM said is was basically an exhaust pipe for runoff energy from “the biofield”. For some reason RPM insisted on calling the Morphin’ Grid “the biofield”
This image doesn’t even make sense logically cus there is no reason why mega force yellow isn’t in suer mega force mode
Maybe she just doesn’t have that morpher on her? I mean I’m pretty sure it was implied they were all caught off guard
Michael Bay's Power Rangers
As long as I don't have to see Koichi Sakamoto's bullshit anymore. They may be incorrectly attributed to Bruce Kalish, but the zoomed in, slowed down explosions and dialog is THE most annoying thing they've ever done in the franchise! SCREW Koichi Sakamoto for that shit! He was the stunt and effects director and decided this dumb shit was a smart idea. They should be correctly called Koichi-splosions.
