Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger

HD is out too!

Just the SD for now. HD later today

The word:
Guess I should clarify on what Goukai means
You hear goukai mentioned in the narration before the opening in episode one:

Goukai 豪快 【ごうかい】 (adj-na,n) hearty, exciting, stirring, lively, heroic, largehearted, splendid, (P)
From the kanji gou/great/powerful and kai/pleasant feeling

For those of you who noticed the original HD encode being too dark or stuttering, here's a version 2!

And episode 2 will be released hopefully tonight or tomorrow

Some people have asked for a clarification on the designations that we use. SD and HD stand for Standard Definition and High Definition. SD is small resolution and encoded with the Xvid codec, HD is higher resolution and encoded with the H.264 codec. In short, HD will look better, but SD is around if you aren't able to play the HD version. DC stands for Director's Cut, usually that just means footage that was added in that wasn't originally in the theatrical cut. DVD and Blu-Ray just show what the source material for the encode was. MV is for Music Videos. OVA stands for Original Video Animation.

Am I missing anything? I guess that covers that

Sorry it took a while, we were doing a lot of fine tuning. Let's go! Pirates go! Go Gokaiger!

So let's talk a bit about an underrated show, Chousei Kantai Sazer-X. It was the third in the series that was akin to the third party for Toei's Kamen Rider and Sentai series. Just 38 episodes long (and a movie) and following the more popular JustiRiser series, I kind of feel like it fell on the wayside with people finding the humor goofy and the other tongue-in-cheek elements just offputting. I mean, you either love Sazer-Gordo or you vehemently reject him.

So what happened to the three main heroes of the series?

Well, Miura Ryousuke seems to be doing pretty well for himself. Apparently he acts in J-doramas, he had a guest role in Decade, and he's currently a main character in Kamen Rider OOO. That's pretty awesome if you think about it.

Shindou Gaku apparently is still getting work too. He was in Fuuma no Kojirou the live version and now he's doing voice acting for one of the villains in Gokaiger.

But what happened to the main hero of Sazer-X? Where's he gone? The year's still young, maybe we'll see him pop up in some toku somewhere else

So up to this point, we've been using Goukaiger with a u, but after seeing the latest promo, I think it'd be best if we used the official spelling. So from here on, you'll see it written as Gokaiger in the subs.

A lot of you have sent in some wonderful splashes for this series already. I hate to ask this, but if your splash has Goukaiger in it, could you please change it to Gokaiger and send it to me again if it's not a lot of work? Otherwise don't worry about it. Thanks!
