All right, about a year ago, my friend found this interesting web video, it's in Japanese but had subtitles and was funnier than hell. I need to find it again cause it was awsome and deserves to be shared.

The short was about a Japanese teenager who is going about his life though he is completely directionless and has never made much of an impact on others. One night, coming home from McDonalds, he is attacked by some Power Ranger knockoffs who claim he is an evil galactic alien with a massive army planning on conquering the world. He fights them off (in the funniest PR spoof ever) and continues being attacked at random by these Power Ranger knock offs. In the end, he is actually recruited and made leader of said galactic invaders.

I hope that was enough to go on. I can't find it any where and my friend can't remember where he even found it. We've both been looking for it for a year now and I need some help. Pretty Please...:love:

Not every color-coded group of costumed heroes is a "Power Rangers knockoff." Far from it, in fact.

The concept, referred to as "sentai," is believed to have originated with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatchaman">Gatchaman</a> in 1972, and it spread from there until it became firmly instilled in Japanese pop culture. This was largely facilitated by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Sentai">Super Sentai</a> franchise, which began in 1975 and continues to produce new shows to this day. What we know as "Power Rangers" is actually the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyouryuu_Sentai_Zyuranger">sixteenth entry</a> in the Super Sentai series, which didn't come about until 1992.

An evil group of people in funny masks want him to be their leader. The first thing they do is go party!

Yeah it was more of a Sentai parody than a Power Rangers parody. Still funny though.
