They're super heroes...
Only villains have poses...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.The 1st and 3rd peeps are heroes?
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I think what I mean is whenever I see a superhero in an anime its always the Sentai type where their extremely campy & flamboyant doing extreme poses, yelling at the top of their lungs with phrases involving justice & such ala Power Rangers.
Well it could just be me seeing not enough Japanese Supes to know if theres more variety or not.
I'd like to see some classics like the Cape & Cowl.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."Watch My Hero Academia and One Punch Man. Both are fantastic and both are all about western-styled superheroes.
Not sure what you all are talking about with "The Pride Troopers act like villains". They don't. Sentai poses are things heroes do, not villains. It's the Ginyu Force who are weird, being bad guys who do team poses.

Yeah I watch those 2 anime's already.
It's just I got way, way too into Jiren being Japanese Superman & then hoped the Pride Troopers were like the Legion of Superheroes.
Again its purely my personal tastes & the fanon characterization I gave Jiren after buying into his hype.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."How aggressive are they...?
Does it involve mockery...?
Does it involve overconfidence...?
Does it involve underestimation...?
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.All three of my pictures were classic tokusatsu heroes. The first was Kamen Rider (Rider 1 and Rider 2, specifically) and the third was Ultra Man. They're all good guys.
It also bugged me that there really wasn't anything heroic in how the Pride Troopers presented themselves. Admittedly, the ToP isn't a good setting for heroics. However, something could have been done to make them more face than heel.
I mean, look at who they were fighting. Goku is the Arc Villain who started this evil tournament, 17 and 18 are his teammates. Kale is a dangerous berserker who had just went on a violent rampage, destroying much of the arena and eliminating their teammate Vuon, and Caulifla is her ally. From their perspective, them being faces is obvious.
Did Veggie just want to punch Kakarrot?
Also Yamucha still sounds like a surfer lingo...

Yeah the fodder troopers had a similar role as the Force & they certainly did not do well. The Troopers don't stack up at all.
Like that pose they did to Goku, Cauli, & Kale had me going "What the fuck are you doing?" Scratch what I said there is no routine its just people doing whatever the fuck they want & clearly they suck at improvisation.
Do they not have a choreographer?
Tohei clearly did not give a shit there.
