Hey Tokusatsu fans! Last week, we invited you to join our new weekly feature titled “Let’s Watch Wednesdays” where each Wednesday we begin the task of watching more episodes of past Tokusatsu series!

Last week we watched Dairanger 1-5, Kamen Rider Ryuki 1-5, and Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue 1-5! Discussions have already started regarding these past series! What did you think? Is Dairanger holding up against Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 2? Is Kamen Rider Ryuki superior to Kamen Rider Dragon Knight? And is Lightspeed Rescue as good as we remember it?

This week we continue with the same series!

You can find your Sentai and Kamen Rider series via Torrent through your favorite subbing groups, or for direct download at KRDL.INFO. For Power Rangers, simply check out Netflix streaming on your PC, SmartPhone, or favorite Video Gaming console.

We here at Tokunation are pleased to start a new weekly discussion thread entitled “Let’s Watch Wednesdays”, where every Wednesday we’ll discuss up to and including 5 episodes of various Tokusatsu series! Our staff debated and voted, and we hope you will choose one of (if not all of) the three options below for Power Rangers, Super Sentai, and Kamen Rider!

Let’s Watch Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue!
Mariner Bay is the home of this incarnation of Power Rangers who fight against demons led by the evil Diabalico! It’s also the first adaption of Power Rangers to include a Western-only Tokusatsu hero which was not part of the original Japanese Sentai series!

Let’s Watch Gosei Sentai Dairanger!
The Gorma tribe has returned and is taking over the world! Master Kaku has assembled a team of five youths with a large amount of Qi to stop them! You will recognize a lot of the monster and all the zord footage from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 2 as the zords, the monsters, and the White Ranger were adapted from DaiRanger to Power Rangers!

Let’s Watch Kamen Rider Ryuki
The Rider War is here! There can only be one Kamen Rider! Each has the Advent Deck which has bonded them to a monster from the mirror world. Sound familiar? You may have seen this on the KidsWB network as Kamen Rider Dragon Knight. Now see the story as it was originally told as we watch one of the most popular Kamen Rider series!

Every week we’ll move on to the next batch of episodes! Happy discussions!

Don’t know where to find these episodes? For direct downloads, head over to our friends at KRDL.
