Tomica Hero Rescue Fire: Difference between revisions

Line 4:
A 2009 [[Tokusatsu]] that is a direct sequel to the successful ''[[Tomica Hero Rescue Force]]''. Like its predecessor, it takes the [[Rescue]] genre and tries to make it as [[Rule of Cool|ridiculously cool]] as possible, but this time it focuses on firefighting.
 
The series focuses on the Super-Fire Specialist Team, a newly-created division of the United Fire-Defense Agency (which Rescue Force was a part of). Due to global warming, an insidious group of demons known as the Fire Tribe have been released from captivity inside the polar ice caps. The Fire Tribe have the power to create [[Kill It with Fire|"Super Fire"]], which conventional fire-fighting methods are useless against. Bring on Rescue Fire and their ice-powered [[Wave Motion Gun|Wave Motion Guns]]s!
 
It's just as [[Merchandise-Driven]] as ''Rescue Force'' was, but the level of [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|sheer undiluted awesomeness]] is just as high as ever.

* [[Actor Allusion]]: In one episode, Fire-2/Yuuma shows off a few yo-yo tricks before attempting to talk to Gaia Leon. Prior to becoming an actor, Kawada Yu participated in yo-yo competitions.
Line 56:
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: No pun intended. (Though Yuma/Fire-2 is more [[Hot-Blooded]] than the others, even using the good old "Ora, ora, ora!" battle cry.)
* [[Ho Yay]]: In episode 37, [[Hopeless Suitor|Tsubasa]] fails to ask [[Oblivious to Love|Ritsuka]] to a cruise and Jun offers to go with him, prompting a similar [[Fetish Fuel|romantic fantasy]] [[Imagine Spot|similar to his previous ones about Ritsuka]]. Needless to say, Tsubasa is [[Brain Bleach|naturally]] [[Squick|repulsed]] by this.
* [[Humans Are Bastardsthe Real Monsters]]: The Jakaen's motivation.
* [[I Found You Like This]]: In episode 36, when Tatsuya exhausts himself while swimming and Ritsuka pulls him out and makes sure he's okay (creating a rather [[Ship Tease|cute scene]]). Once he wakes up, however, even as she's being kind to him while he catches his breath, she essentially kindly berates him for doing something that stupid before walking off.
* [[Infernal Retaliation]]: If only while this show is on the air, every [[Monster of the Week]] can have the words "on fire" added to it. The first enemy is a giant firebreathing one-eyed sentient motorcycle with a tail. That is on fire.
Line 81:
* [[Sixth Ranger]]: Fire-4 and Fire-5, the Sky Team.
* [[Small Annoying Creature]]: Q-suke.
* [[So Last Season]]: Both Rescue Striker, originally given to Fire-3, and the Rescue Breaker start out being used fairly often, though they're not good for much. The Rescue Breaker is slowly phased out in favor of the Tri-Basher, and Ritsuka eventually gets her own new vehicle in Turbo Dragon. Though Rescue Striker -- specificallyStriker—specifically, Drill Striker -- doesStriker—does get one grand last usage to defeat an evil version of Rescue Drill.
** The Rescue Breaker is still Fire-2's preferred weapon of choice. Fire-1 is Tri-Basher Sword while Fire-3 is Tri-Basher Gun. Their backpacks hold both weapons though.
** Rescue Striker, {{spoiler|Rescue Diver, and the combined Super Rescue Max}} come back in a [[Crossover]] team-up worldwide [[Combination Attack]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teOKgjQxB-g\]
* [[Spank the Cutie]]: No seriously, Ukaen spanks Nana-chan (The sister of Tsubasa's sempai) in episode 46.
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: Both ''[[Madan Senki Ryukendo]]'' and ''[['''Tomica Hero Rescue Fire]]''''''s [[Transformation Sequence|transformation sequences]] involve dragons made of energy flying into them from above, making this show a sort of wonderful odd conglomeration of the crew's past two works.
** The Blue Dragons look a lot like the Madan Weapons soul ... dragon ... thingies.
* [[Super Mode]]: Fire-1 X. He fights with a sword called the Ryudoken, which sounds [[Madan Senki Ryukendo|very familiar...]]
