*** But since the Sixth Ranger was US-exclusive anyway, why didn't PR just acquire (or reconstruct) the Sieg (or Sieg-Jeanne) costume?

** Alternatively, its some sort of Clarke's Law thing, and after almost a decade, humanity has become GenreSavvy. "There's no such thing as monsters, just alien and inter-dimensional invaders. There's a perfectly rational explanation for them, so they're not really monsters, just enemy soldiers!", in which case again the parent would only say the first part for the sake of the child's peace of mind.

** I don't recall them saying they were originally meant for Carter, just that he was the one Ms. Fairweather was having to test to see if someone could handle it. Besides, maybe there was something involving the morphing grid that prevented them from making a second red outfit with their technology?

*** Actually, there is a way to explain this. There was an episode of Lost Galaxy where the rangers found a kid who stowed away on Terra Venture, and the episode ended with the rangers taking the kid back to Earth on the Astro Megaship. It's likely that the people of learn a bit about the Galaxy rangers when they brought back that kid.

** First off, I'd like to say this... There was a Go Silver planed?! O.o Now, with that out of the way, Sieg only appeared in the [[Main/RescueSentaiGoGoFive GoGoV]] Movie, and was killed part-way through it and replaced by Sieg-Jeanne, who was a civilian ally initially in the series. Due to what little footage they had of Sieg, they couldn't have used him because they mainly use stock footage of the respective Sentai series for that Power Rangers Season.

**** Um... I would like to point out they want to TakeOverTheWorld... that's reason enough for having them be the bad guys...



*** I guess so... another thing is I'd like to mention is Diabolico said Capt. Mitchell would see his son on his 20th birthday. How was he able to know that he'd be freed from his SealedEvilInACan?!



*** I'm guessing that using the Titanium Morpher could only be used by someone strong enough to handle it, and since Ryan had been trained by Diabolico for 10-someodd years, he's grown strong enough to use it as a result. But, hey, that's [[WebOriginal/GameTheory just a theory!]] As for the snake tattoo bit, I would guess that it is affected whenever Ryan morphs into ANY ranger. Diabolico's not THAT stupid...



**** Additionally, if a government agency like Lightspeed is going to create a sixth Ranger for their team, presumably that sixth Ranger would share a costume design with the others on the team, which Seig's definitely does not. And if they're going to have to shoot new footage either way, the new Ranger might as well fit the style of the Rangers already established.

** I don't know if this is fanon or something that was planned for the series which was cut, but I've heard a theory that Lightspeed was based a lot on the technology recovered from previous destroyed zords. In addition, during the Space/Galaxy team up, the Space Rangers make a number of references to a secret mission they have back on earth. I think the theory is that the Space Rangers had a hand in the creation of Lightspeed and it's technology. Since the Space Rangers had met the Galaxy Rangers, they probably passed on a lot of information about them to Lightspeed and the Lightspeed Rangers were probably ordered to read up on Ranger history as part of their training.

*** Of course, The Magna Defender costume looks pretty frickin's awsome no matter what series it's in (Come one! It's like Taurus-inspired version of {{Batman}}!) while Seig's costume looks kind of silly. From a story standpoint it's [[RuleOfDrama just more dramatic]] to have the Lightspeed Rangers forced to fight another ranger (which is also another long-standing Power Rangers tradition) and the Seig costume simply didn't look rangery enough for the producers. OR they simply couldn't get ahold of the Seig suit for the american re-shoots nessecary to have him as a character (which would be a LOT since Seig only shows up for the movie).

**** No it doesn't, you can't just attack people for holding a different set of values than you. If the demons didn't attack people then the Rangers would have no right to destroy them. It would be cold blooded murder. Humanity is shown to be able to co-exist with established evil creatures several times throughout the various series, as long as nobody decides to cause trouble.

*** Demons were their first, and they worshipped Queen Bansheera(possibly), just becayse they were evil doesn't mean they're automatically the bad guys. The only reason they were chosen to be the bad guys was "Demons are apparently evil", and hey, easy choice for a set of Villains. It has nothing to do with "Holiness" whatsoever. Likewise, wouldn't you feel bad if you built on a shrine of something?
