The cultural reason Power Rangers introduce themselves before battle
Manage episode 303272187 series 2987394
Why do Power Rangers, originally a Japanese kids TV content franchise, give a self-introduction every time they go into battle, and why do villains just patiently wait for them to finish? The Power Ranger series in Japan are the same deal. There is in fact an interesting historical/cultural background to their absurd behaviors - in the lives of Japanese samurais 400 to 800 years ago.
Show host Kyota Ko solves the mystery in one quick podcast.
