Amusing but gay. And that was a fake ninja in the other segment, a former Mighty Barfin' Power Ranger.

Yeah, that anime was Grenadier. That fight scene was a direct ripoff of the Dupont/Preston fight. There are two other anime that have EQ fight-scene ripoffs, one of which is frame-by-frame. (There's also a Power Rangers-like show that has a similar fight scene.)
And in all honesty, I found the fight scenes to be quite incredible. You have to remember that this movie had a very, VERY small budget ($20 million, I think) and that a lot of the fight scenes were done in very few takes. (One was done in one take.) Plus the movie wasn't oversaturated with fight scenes, so each one felt awesome.

holy crap, i haven't heard 'trouble' in a movie since the Power Rangers.

Omfg: "He's wearing that dumb Power Ranger mask, but he's scarier without it on"

AHHH, HAHAHAA..

Aima crapma pance, I friggin love Weird Al.

power rangers: the music video

Hey I'm happy to have evoked such a brazen tossing-about of downvotes-Noone seemed to like the juice in the Holy Grail of Wobal Glorming being used in the radiator of the Studebaker. Oh well I can't slight ya on this one-for all the same reasons I detest the Power Rangers-I love anything uniquely cheesey. Go Go Power Rangers!

Hey, that inspired theme song, "Go go power rangers, the mighty, morphin' power ranggeahhhhs!" I was around 20 sumpin when that shit came out, und a course my favorite thuying was the mouth on the evil bitch, moving Godzilla-stylee.

LONG before the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, there was this American spoof of 1983's Kagaku Sentai Dynaman. Part of the USA Network's "Night Flight" block.

cosplayers? Those are Power Ranger crazies! It's not cosplay unless someone is dress up as Chi from Chobits.

Also included in this catagory are Spaceketeers, Gaiking, but I'll be deep in the cold, cold Earth before I let you compare these to the Power Rangers

Adapted from "Kagaku ninja tai Gatchaman" (Science Ninja Team Gatchaman), this is generally considered the originator of all the superheroes-with-connecting-ships series to follow, such as "Voltron", "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers", etc.

Is that guy one of the Power Rangers?

He must be a go-fer from the Power Rangers set.

i did something similar when i was a kid. except there was no music. and we didnt dance. it did involve a treadmill though. i.e., melting the faces of my power rangers toys by cranking my treadmill up to the max and...well, i think you can guess the rest.

good video.

go go power rangers!
