Avataro Sentai Donbrothers (Shinichi Saruhara & Tsuyoshi Kijino)
Pics by paradatemporal, Avataro_Sentai_Donbrothers
Just started watching this Super Sentai and I like the idea that the “Rangers” are not high school students but “working adults” except for ‘Yellow Ranger.’
It reminds me of the Super Sentai parody of Jossy's (2014) where the ‘Rangers’ are grown adults struggling between their jobs, their lives and saving the world.

Just a brief introduction of the ‘Rangers’, left to right:
Shinichi Saruhara - Blue Ranger (Saru Brother) - freelancer.
Tsuyoshi Kijino - Pink Ranger (Kiji Brother) - salaryman.
Taro Momoi - Red Ranger (Don Momotaro) - delivery rider.
Haruka Kito - Yellow Ranger (Oni Sister) - school student.
Tsubasa Inuzuka the Black Ranger (Inu Brother) - criminal fugitive.
Come to think of it, it is actually similar to Chōjin Sentai Jetman (1991) where they’re all working adults except for Blue who is a student.

Avataro Sentai Donbrothers is like a lighthearted version of Chōjin Sentai Jetman which was darker and also features a student and a criminal.
Anyway, at this point, my two favourite characters are Shinichi Saruhara, the Blue Ranger and Tsuyoshi Kijino, the Pink Ranger. (Top two pics).

I find Tsuyoshi’s character relatable, being an average salaryman who suffers from imposter syndrome and being insecure about everything.
Even though he’s got a ‘proper’ job and a loving wife who loves him as he is, he still feels he is not good enough and wants more.

I find Shinichi’s character relatable as well, being on a zen mode, accepting the transience of life and living a simple life without complications.
If I were to watch this years ago when I was a student, I would think Shinichi is a lazy bum but after being weathered by life now I could see his point. 🤪
Does anyone realizes that he has a certain resemblance to Yamashita Tomohisa, who played a monk in ‘From Five to Nine’ with Satomi Ishihara? 😏

Come on Donbrothers! Part 1 (Featuring. Don Murasame!)
To commemorate the final episode of Donbrothers that should be coming out soon, here is one of two pieces I’m making! Decided to add in Don Murasame, just so he isn’t left out (He is a “Don” afterall).
