Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Why didn't Gosei wake up after Zordon died? Since he was Zordon's protege.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I think it was pretty much a case of the Morphing Grid sending a signal to Gosei that he was needed since the Morphing Grid would've been able to know if there was a force that would've been able to take care of the current threat or not.

Scorpius only attacked Terra Venture and the Quasar Sabers found who they had belonged with so Gosei wasn't needed there.

Lightspeed Rescue was built to deal with the demons in case they had ever escapeed.
Time Force was created just to deal with their own criminals for the most part so once Ransik had escaped to 2001 it was pretty obvious that someone was going to go after him.

Wild Force was pretty much responsible for dealing with the Orgs.
Sensei and Lothor had their history so it was obvious they were going to have candidates to become Rangers in case it was needed.
Dino Thunder is one of the fishy ones since there were only 3 gems all of which were in Tommy's basement and the only reason they had bonded to Kira, Conner and Ethan is because of Randall giving all 3 of them detention.
S.P.D. was in the future and they were created to be police so of course they would've had Rangers in their organization.
Mystic Force already had transformed heroes during their previous war so the odds would've been great that someone would've had a plan with recruiting new Rangers in case the creatures from the Underworld had escaped.

Moltor and Flurious were not meant to escape their escaping was Andrew's own greedy mistake since he had unearthed the Corona Aurora yet the Morphing Grid likely knew the weakened Sentinel Knight was keeping an eye on that so didn't interfere.

Pai Zhuq obviously wasn't aware of RJ's secret Ranger powers that he was hiding but obviously it was something he knew would be needed at some point.

RPM was in an alternate dimension and regardless of that it likely knew that Dr. K would be building the Ranger powers.

It was already aware of Samurai since there were 18 different Red Samurai Rangers regardless of whether all of them were actually physical Rangers or not.

Thays good analysis Matt. There was no need for Gosei unless said groups lost control of the situation.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Who says Gosei didn't wake up to see that each situation was being handled? He had the Megaforce Morphers ready if need be.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I didn't like Gosei. Since he takes away from the narrative that Tommy is the new Zordon. Which is what was implied in FR and DT.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

no he doesn't since Tommy is still the new Zordon and who says there can't be more than 1 new Zordons? No one but you.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

It just makes things more confusing. Tommy should have been the mentor. I know that was probably impossible for them to pull off behind the scenes.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Gosei never said he was the new Zordon. Just that he was his protege. I always thought the whole Hexagon thing was far fetched.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I just don't like that part where the Rangers were supposed to have a civil war.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I would love it if they had a Civil War now. All the good Rangers from the first decade versuses all the dumb Rangers we get now.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Only if Tommy is the leader of the dumb Rangers.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Leo needs to be on that team too lol.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Carter too guys. Don't leave me out of this.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Lol. We should form a support group for fans that have to deal with hated Alpha Male Rangers. But I guess we will have to settle for a usergroup.

On the hexagon thing. I hate it because it again makes Tonmy more than he should be. He is just a former Ranger not some God. Its bad enough he was in DT to steal the spotlight from the Rangers that year. Tommy doesn't need a new mythology that makes him the secret star of the show. I am fine witb Gosei in the role. Even if Super Megaforce sucked.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I don't think it makes things confusing at all plus Billy could've been the new Zordon as well if they had wanted him to be they just wanted to give Tommy the extra focus because of his fan popularity also the Phantom Ranger could've been the new Zordon as well.

exactly on both counts.

yea that's the part of it that I don't like about it.

while you're right about the Hexagon thing he did not steal the spotlight from anyone while he was in Dino Thunder exactly what show were you watching? Must've been a different one than the one that was televised and technically they were already starting to write Tommy into the new Zordon as of Forever Red with or without his other later appearances from Dino Thunder and Super Megaforce.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Tommy should have just been a background character in DT. Yet he gets to be the mentor and powerful Fourth Ranger. Everything revovles around him. His fued with Zeltrax and estrangement from Anton. Even when JDF was not on the set, the whole show was dedicated to him being stuck in morphed form. That whole arch was terrible.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

DT did a great job with ballencing Tommy and the new Rangers. The show was more about the newbies than Tommy most of the time. The stuck morph stuff was annoying but neccessary since JDF had an extra brake in his deal. DT was written so old school fans would get satisfaction but so the new fans would still be able to enjoy the season just as it is. Dr. Oliver both works as a returning fan favorite and new character for the season. Just in case anyone saw Tommy for the first time here.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

Too bad the DT Rangers were written like a bunch of punks. I didn't think it was possible to have dumber Ranges than the Winds. Tommy should have stripped them of their powers and started from scratch. The Dino Gems suckd at picking Rangers.

Tommy was the only decent part of the season. Even though he was miscast as a paleontologist.

Re: Why didn't Gosei wake up sooner?
 

I thought DinoThunder was awesome. Almost as good as Megaforce. I loved having Tommy back to mentor the future Rangers. Who were great btw. They captured the modern essence of MMPR like characters. The main villain was a lot scarier than Rita though lol.
