As long as it's good 👍

the biggest change for a while with sentai was going from "watches" to "phones" and of course now, it's kinda all over the place... but yeah, it's been relatively the same in length and roll calling

Ultraman used to have a quick but satisfying henshins... nowadays it is like watching someone setup a smartphone.

It is a kids show. But I do like it when the Writers make the Transformation feel like something, especially when the henshin actually BLOCKS attacks. Anyways, subscribed...

I do like henshin that affects enviroment and hurts enemies like zero one's animal being able to deflect and hurts enemies and toqger making a physical line

the gorengers do have a transformation. they do a little spin and become their ranger forms. also, JAKQ had a pretty long transformation sequence where they’d have tanning-bed like capsules sent down from their plane so they could get in the capsule and be bombarded with energy to become JAKQ.

a new toku youtuber? thats a auto subscribe for me keep up the good work

Usually when it comes to sentai and raider there's the long version and the short version of the transformation. They don't usually do the full transformation and roll call every episodes.

Yeah it's not about the length it is about execution and also what the overal motif like Kyoryuger having a big emphasis on music has the Kyoryugers dancing. About Zyuranger. Zyuranger is part of sentais Hesei era, the last showa show is Turboranger. Currently going through the mega max trio and I love their henshin sequences especially how they relate to the theme. W downloading the form from the gaia memories as each small piece flies on like a cyclone. OOO in built and quite famous jingle "Taja, Tora, Batta" works as an announcement for a King which the original OOO was. A fanfare is used again in Gaim after each Lockseed is open. Then Fourze having the steam like a space suit all great. Also love how just angry Accel's first transformation was with the afterburner effect like "Move aside W the real hard boiled man has arrived"

transformation length never bothers me tbh times have changed it’s what the kids love and want to see, plus due to the length it opens so many doors for creative transformation sequences, so my point is as long as it’s good, creative, and can bring hype and inspiration in moments of need, i am completely fine with transformation sequences

The Metal Heroes franchise's Space Sheriff shows do something unique: The transformations take milliseconds after shouting the transformation word, and then they replay the transformation but slowed down to explain how the transformations work, and they do this in every single episode!

long transformations for things like their first time or a new form they get that is their *insert super/final form* and short ones should just be more to the point of it when we are gonna see it like a billion times alr so might as well get it over with

It was spot on, great job!

Idk why I wasn't subscribed to your channel but it's nice that you're still doing toku content roof old pal

Finally my boy's hair looking better 😭

I just want snappy and quick transformations.

Is this new channel? i remember subscribing to you. Great to see your content again

I’m gonna have to say, bros onto something

it depend on toy company sponsor most tokusatsu show have toy company behind it

Episode 2 of Ultraman Arc, the kaiju is literally about to eat a child and the protag has to solve a whole ass rubik's cube before he can save him. That's the sort of shit that takes me out of a scene.

The transformations sequences imo just needs to be at most 20 seconds. Even early heisei takes around 10 seconds. Even though usually the first transformations are usually the most bombastic n longest, the later transformations should be shorter as the viewers already have an understanding of how the transformations happens. While most shows use stock footage to save cost and increase the run time, I don't mind as long as it doesn't ruin the pacing or take up the majority of the film. Transformations also indicate the change in situation so how its executed should be important.

i really don't care about length tbh, it depends on the overall atmosphere of the sequence and the characters themselves, like when the scene is serious and heroic, long transformation is fine.

Henshin is now my favorite word

rooftoku what is your opinion about the first episode of Arc??

I think the incorporation of henshin jingles and poses are mostly important for children to mimic and play pretend. Imagine playing pretend as Goranger and your henshin sequence is a whole spin. With all due respect for that series, the play experience itself would probably suck. Having a tagline and pose/motions attached to the henshin means kids can relate to them without going the extra mile of buying the toys. A bit of a tangent, because I'm well aware the point of the video is how long it takes for us the viewers to experience the henshin, and not the actual in-universe length itself (which usually prompts the "why don't the enemies just attack them mid-sequence" argument). It's not uncommon in the later parts of a series that henshin sequences get shortened to make time for plot relevant content, but Metal Heroes actually tried to normalize the shortened henshin as it happens too fast for the human eyes to comprehend. So a full minute henshin for the audience takes only half a second in-universe. I get that establishing this every series might be repetitive, while sounding kinda lame by the 3rd consecutive series, just wish it gets more recognition as a counterargument. The other side of it is henshin gimmicks that act as a defensive component mid-sequence. I'm sure there's plenty more but I could only recall Kamen Rider Gaim and Ghost off the top of my head.

I smell underrated

Gavan takes 1/20 of a second and Gokaiger takes 0.1 milliseconds in real time but they are presented slowed down for the viewers.

Depends on how good it looks. My personal favourite "long" henshin comes from Ultraman Orb. In fact, these days most of them comes from Ultraman. I dare say I even have a soft spot for Zero Beyond's stupidly long sequence. On the other hand, couldn't stand Kamen Rider stuff - most particularly because of their god-awful sound design. It gets even worse during group transformations when the "bangs", "booms", jingles, and shouting voices from the belt/gadget clash together into a horrendous cacophony.

Preferably less than 15 sec. Most newer Ultraman shows be taking a whole minute and a half 😂

A WHOLE HOUR

10 seconds

you should watch more then

What happened to man ni san 🗣🔥🔥🔥

Longer transformation doesn't bother me, the one bothering me is the dependant on toys.

What happened to your old channel?

0:51 but the first kamen rider is selling henshin belt😂 12:03 so make it 24 minutes 😂

Gavan's henshin takes literally 50 seconds

I like the toy centric henshin sequences but I have to admit I do dislike some of them on the way they executed those sequences. The one I really dislike are Saber's long ass wonder ridebook synopsis narration and Ultraman Arc's cube thing (shit looks cool but the gimmick kinda seem pointless as oppose to Zyuohger's).

I think tokusatsu is just following the rule of cool since the beginning, everything is a gimmick and it changes on each generations standards. Personally as long as its fun and cool I have no problem, though ngl some of them are cringe. Trying to act like anime characters is painful to watch 😭

Most transformers this days have lost the meaning you used to get transformers when you evolution as a person but with new generation buy this you don't need to overcome any problems just buy new toys

2-15 seconds

Everyone forgot Zero Beyond transformation now. Ultimate Shining Transformation or Saga one was more cooler. And funny. That Zero Beyond Henshin was by Takesue who will doing R/B later on and those 2 said to be one of longest Henshin as Zero lololol

The longest transformation I've seen in kamen rider so far was Build's, and that made me not watch the show, heard it was good but still ain't a fan of long transformations, kinda ruin the immersion for me, I prefer shorter to the point transformation (kabuto, kiva, ryuki, etc.)

NO, DON'T WATCH BOONBOONGER AS YOUR FIRST SENTAI!! WATCH LIVEMAN!!

I like my henshins like I like my women,short and sweet

YOOOO ROOFDANGZ YOU'RE BACK I THOUGHT YOU'RE GONE FOREVER DUDE😭😭🙏🙏
