Talk:Kugutsukai

I dispute the speculated reason for not adapting him. The "flayed human" is doll-like, and Power Rangers has not only adapted more visceral-looking things (Dora Antaeus' heart, the Org Heart), it has CREATED more visceral-looking things. Exhibit A: Lord Zedd. No skin, exposed brain, and unlike the "flayed human" on Kugutsukai's body he's very realistic-looking.

I think the following are much more likely reasons for not adapting Kugutsukai: The Nickelodeon twenty-episode cap (also responsible for the adaptations of Acts 38 and 39 getting awkwardly smushed together into a single episode), the low amount of morphed footage in Shinkenger Act 30, the plot requiring a lot of extras to adapt, most of the ground fight footage being unusable because of Kugutsukai using the all-Japanese student body as human shields, and the giant fight being focused on and promoting a Zord combination that Bandai of America didn't offer.
