There is one major bit of news...it has been decided that due to the lack of time writing the post-PRND miniseries, that project has been postponed until at least next year. Because of this, the PRND series has been expanded by two episodes, bringing the final episode count for PRND to sixty-two. The titles for the two episodes are "One Final Lap," and "Checkered Flag." They will be based off of the final two episodes of Go-onger. This will allow the possibility for one or two more original episodes.

And, in regards to adapting the next series (SR2009/PR2010), that has not been decided yet. As was done for adapting Go-onger, the decision will be made once the series name and premise has been mostly finalized (most likely in December or January.) Regardless, the miniseries WILL be written, and WILL be posted in 2009.

NightRanger Industries to adapt 2009 Super Sentai Japanese television series, "Samurai Sentai Shinkenjaa" into "Power Rangers: Shinobi Warriors," in their third "Power Rangers" adaptation.

FRESNO, CA.-October 17, 2008...For the past two months or so, bits of information has been trickling out onto the three discussion boards (Rangerboard, Rangertalk, and Tokusatsu-Fusion) about the next Super Sentai series (for 2009). With the tons of speculation, the title of "Samurai Sentai Shinkenger," and some leaked pictures detailing some information, I have come to a decision...I have decided to adapt this upcoming series and name the series..."Power Rangers: Shinobi Warriors."

The title of "Shinobi" will be used since names containing "Ninja," "Samurai," and "Shogun" have been used in the third season on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Ninja Rangers, Ninja Megazord, Shogun Megazord, etc.) and Power Rangers: Ninja Storm (Green Samurai Ranger, Samurai Saber, etc.).

Episodes of "Power Rangers: Shinobi Warriors" are expected to begin around late-February/early March, a few weeks after Power Rangers: Nitro Defenders has finished up production, and most episodes will be based on summaries found online, or original works. There will be another attempt at "Power Rangers: Morphin Heroes" for the end of the 2009 adaptation as well.

As of now, the Shinobi Rangers are...Dimitri Fedorov (Red Ranger), a Russian male [imagine Conner's soccer buddy on "Power Rangers: Dino Thunder"]...Cody Egawa (Blue Ranger, a Japanese male [imagine Shin Koyamada]...Eddie Callahan (Green Ranger), a French male...Sierra Croft (Yellow Ranger), a Native-American female [imagine Kylee Styles from Power Rangers: Dino Thunder, with glasses]...and Megan Baldwin (Pink Ranger), an African female.

More information on "Power Rangers: Shinobi Warriors" of course, as it comes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upcoming PRND:
As you can see, alot has been changed recently...the "Argo's Wish" became the first part of "On The Right Track." Also, there will be no PRJF/PRND team-up...I'll save that for the PRMH idea.

NIGHTRANGER INDUSTRIES ADDS FOURTH DISCUSSION BOARD TO IT'S NETWORK IN TIME FOR THE AMERICAN ADAPTATION OF "SAMURAI SENTAI SHINKENJAA," "POWER RANGERS: SHINOBI WARRIORS."

FRESNO, CA.-November 18, 2008...NightRanger Industries is proud to announce the addition of a fourth discussion board to view their episodes..."Power Ranger Empire."

The posting of scripts to "PRE" will start once "Power Rangers: Nitro Defenders has completed it's series run of approximately sixty-two (62) episodes with the adaptation of "Samurai Sentai Shinkenjaa..." "Power Rangers: Shinobi Warriors" in February or March 2009. "Nitro Defenders" has about twelve more episodes to go until it's series finale.

In addition to "PRE," NightRanger Industries produced scripts can be found on "Rangertalk," "Tokusatsu-Fusion," and it's flagship discussion board, "Rangerboard."

As of November 14, 2008, the total number of "views" between "RB," "RT" (including it's last stints as "Henshin! Heroes" and "Henshin! Talk"), and "TF" has surpassed the thirteen thousand four hundred (13, 400) mark.

Currently, episodes are posted to the three discussion forums on Friday nights, and for right now, they will continue to do so. If there is a "press release," it will be posted in the "tips/comments/promos" area of the board's fanfic forum. Also, after each episode will be a small "Next Time" promo, and sometimes a quick note or two.

NightRanger Industries is proud to have all four discussion groups on board, and will continue to strive to entertain the Super Sentai and Power Rangers fandom.
