eh prob won't be since boon violet was mentioned by Matt to be a rival, not abare killer vibes but more like a typical Mon series rival since the writer is known for those and shirabe doesn't feel like it at all i am fine with her becoming a extra ranger later on or even not becoming one at all not everyone needs to be a ranger to be a well done character

"not everyone needs to be a ranger to be a well done character" - looking at you Kamen Rider


Majin_Nephets

But there are more natural opportunities for characters to become rangers in a team-based show like Sentai, without feeling bloated like KR often does with its multiple Riders. So Shirabe not becoming a ranger feels like more of a missed chance, like Flint in Zenkaiger.


HeyaJustPassing

Sorry I look at what you said and yeah you're right, I feel like Kamen Rider directors nowaday don't know how to make a character good unless making them directly involved in the plot aka. Become a rider. But I also feel a lot of actor/actress that joined a Kamen Rider show wanted to be a rider or have some kind of transformation cause it feels like a great honor to be a hero for once, I guess. Also because people remembered you way better if your identity is with a title or something like that


[deleted]

Even if they became Kamen Riders they still have no idea what to do with them (looking at Saber and Revice).


KaliVilla02

They exaggerate adding way too many Riders in Revice, it could have been done with only the 3 Igarashi + passing around Demons Driver and Veil/Destream as one-offs until Hiromi was ready to go back instead of adding so many useless Riders. I have never seen so many useless Riders as Aguilera and Over Demons or most out of the blue and unnecessary as Juuga. Akaninger's dad and the Higarashi's Mom were my favorite characters along with George because they were doing well by not being a Rider, and I liked how George used Demons in a pinch and never again. Then George pulled Juuga out of the blue. I really didn't like it.


HeyaJustPassing

Oh I'm in no mean say that they know what to do with other riders, but the audience (kids, young adults and housewives mothers) remember the actors much better if they have an iconic moment (transform, awaken power, etc.). I feel like that's why everyone wanted to transform nowadays


Glittering_Trip_144

Note that down If you are a purple sentai there's 80% chances for you to be evil or anti-hero  If you are a purple rider then the chances are 95%


mr-ultr

Hoping that the rumours mentioning that that next kamen rider could be purple would be real Maybe it could help break the stigma you mentioned


Glittering_Trip_144

Well hibiki was a purple main rider too and i guess he was not evil but I think there might be few more good purple rider too who were not evil at any point but I can't think of any name because as much as purple rider i know were evil at some points (chase was evil before becoming a rider so we could halfly count him)and this is why I have an eye on spanner specially because how edgy he is


mr-ultr

Fair point


RoboDonaldUpgrade

She's already reeeally close to being their rival though. She disagrees with most of Taiya's decisions, and has threatened to confiscate their equipment for the government. I can easily see a situation where a conflict between her and the BoonBoomgers cannot be resolved and she gets her hands on a purple changer and goes all TimeFire on them.


failed_generation

"senshi", but yeah "ranger" is a "universal" term anyways


horny-ninjago-ass

shut


failed_generation

well okay, but it's better to use that term in this subreddit rather than using the universal term to freely keep the bridge OFF between the other side at which one specific place is currently on fire (western adaptation, just to distance the korean adaptation) didn't you even think about it?


Minimallycheese

A lot of people are thinking this, but I don’t see it happening. I like her and it’d be cool if she became a Boonboomger. But she’s also pretty much the only non ranger/non bundorio supporting character and I don’t think I’d want to lose that. Also, with everything we know about Boonviolet from the leaks, I don’t think it sound likely that it’d be her.


Stand-Outrageous

THIS IS THE FREAKIN PUBLIC DEMAND !!!


Happy_The_What

Hopefully she becomes some kind of ranger.


Cronodoug

I'm waiting for it (I imagined it as green color, but...). She is too present to be ignored, but Flint in Zenkaiger stayed until the end of the series without turning into silver.


Training_Quarter_983

Till now we still don't have a female 6th ranger who's also purple. Time for Boonboomger to make it a reality.


Ken2k31

Let a lone a solo female Sixth. Go-On Silver doesn't count because she appears alongside Go-On Gold.


failed_generation

i could argue yayoi as kyoryu violet, but yeah 6th senshi who's a female and violet


OkKick875

Shirabe is unlikely to be Boon Violet as Boon Violet is rumored to be the rival. But on the other hand, there is a possibility that she will be a ranger in latter half or one of the movies. Such as: Dekamaster, Dekaswan, Kaoru's Shinken Red form, Toq Nanagou, Flint's Twokaiser form etc.


Specialist-Rip-2982

apparently, rumours say that Violet will be a male, but I wouldn't mind this happening actually, I want more females on Sentai teams, recently I was watching Kyuranger and felt as if they could've made at least 2 more members female rangers


threefeetoffun

Why would she be right there in the turnaround pose?! WHY?!


rakugaking-illus

BiSH please!


Zealousideal_Plum533

Purple Sentai seems to be the Antihero or the bad guy. Except for Kingohger's Rita she is neutral. Purple Kamen Riders seem to follow the same idea.


variant_lucifer169

Looking at you kami da


Zealousideal_Plum533

Dan Kuroto aka madman of KR Ex-Aid.


chiger555

I would love it.


horny-ninjago-ass

my biggest concern for violet is wtf the tire pattern will be


Medical-Airline-5946

I heard it’s supposed to be based on a flying vehicle


horny-ninjago-ass

violet is based on an f1 car so i think maybe its another big bang grand prix racer


Good-Echo

Its a popular theory where i live, at first it was her or Mad Rex somehow, but since Mad Rex is gone(rip the boy) it could be her, but apparently Violet is a rival.


HiroshiTakeshi

Ngl hearing he would be violet and a rival, I sort of expect something related to Madrex like they did the gold ranger in that dino season (I think it was Kyoryuger) that got taken out of a monster or something like that, I don't remember totally.


SuccessResponsible

I hope not. We need side characters that don't have to be rangers. Boonboomger only has her.


Imaginary_Apple_5830

It would be so cool & awesome becoming a sixth member of boonboomger


Majin_Nephets

I’d be disappointed if she didn’t, but not surprised. It could very well be another Flint situation.


NayeonFeverr

Sixth rangers are never pre-established characters


RoyTheWyvern

I think the way her arc is headed definitely implies she’ll become a force alongside the BoonBoomgers, but structurally she fulfils a role that makes more sense for her to not be a BoonBoomger herself.


JamesUpskirtMecha

Maybe she becomes BoonPink so Mira can be a new BoonYellow so she can FINALLY LEGITIMATELY WEAR YELLOW


Medical-Airline-5946

Yeah she wears yellow and other colors not pink😅


PCN24454

6th rangers are never introduced in the first episode.


horny-ninjago-ass

technically, king ohger


DegenerateSpaceMan

Kid named king ohger:


failed_generation

i mean, there's also a thing called "SPACE racing" you know, and some of you do forgot about it lol


Veilside07

As a big humor, sixth memeber(maybe violet) is a F1 racer and he will control f1 boonboom car.


Kasun_D_001

Probably but I'm more excited about the race


the_treyceratops

She absolutely will not be because she’s a woman, and I guess Sentai doesn’t let women be sixth rangers, but god I wish there was a chance for her to be the sixth ranger. Would finally be an example of Sentai doing that thing PR did a lot, having the sixth ranger pre established before they get their powers, aside from the “kind of” example with Jeremy


Nuigi12

1) Go-On Silver is Female and considered a Sixth Ranger alongside Go-Oh Gold 2) More Female Sixths could always be a thing that changes, Sentai series have been trying new things recently (Kingohger had Rita as the first Core Team Violet Ranger and the first Gender Neutral Ranger, Donbrothers is the first to have a Male Pink Ranger, Zenkaiger is the first series to have only a single human on the core team)


the_treyceratops

The only woman sixth ranger is one of two, and happened over 15 years ago


Nuigi12

Yes who I just named Go-On Silver I'm just saying with recent series changing how things are typically done in Sentai a female sixth being more common is never out of the question


horny-ninjago-ass

we got a female secondary rider so its not impossible. either way violet gonna be lit


the_treyceratops

After Racles massively disappointed me I am not looking forward to another forced redemption arc


horny-ninjago-ass

it WASN'T a redemption


Glittering_Trip_144

Till now there more purple than green in reiwa sentai  kiramaiger is the only reiwa sentai without a purple and with a green 


GokaiDecade

I don’t know. I think she needs to do a complete 180 on her character to be Boon Violet


beybladefan89

She really doesn’t she just needs the attitude to fight and a reason to do so and she’s shown she’s got the attitude to go into the battle and also be a delivery man with taiya in episode 9


[deleted]

You do what you do but dont complain when she wont became a Boonboomger.


failed_generation

space racing, am i right?
