Does RPM Retcon SPD out of existence?

[Kane]

It's clearly set in between the timeline gap between SPD and Time Force.

Millunieum City in Time Force appears to have been a dome, and we know that outside the city is a baren wasteland, thanks to Ransik's flashback of how he found and created the MutOrgs in Reinforcements From The Future.

RPM most definitely fits with Time Force and the year 3000.

Just not with SPD.

It doesnt fit well at all though; its nowhere close to a smooth transition.

Why would SPD evacuate all the aliens from Earth (including all the poverty-striken ones on the streets) and leave innocent humans on Earth to perish?

Humans were equal partners with the aliens in SPD and they were all intergrated into a mixed society.

It just doesnt add up well.

Well maybe so, but we don't know how many aliens could have left. Humans are from earth. This is our home planet. Knowing how stubborn we can be I can see several cities wanting to stay, where as most of the aliens, who though they may have lived here and been born here, never really had that close a connection with the planet, so they left.

Though there still could be aliens. Just because you don't see them, doesnt mean they aren't there.

The Corinth miliatary left humans outside the dome to perish. No difference.

It might not neccersarily be the fault of many human members, but aliens DO have more control over SPD, and the political climate of PR has always been a tempered one, full of people breathing heavy fire and putting doubt before clarity. Unless you're the protaganist commander (like Stanton, Mitchell, and Kruger), everyone else in a posistion of power is an asshole concerned more about their own worlds than Earth...where the threat is present and, more importantly, can spread if long-term releif stretches out beyond a few months.

That's pretty weak though. Especially when thousands of officers and civilians left earth on Terraventure in 99 during peacetime.

Why would all the innocent women and children (like the one's Flynn helped save on the bus) want to stay (putting children at risk) if they had another option to evacuate the planet for their own safety?

Though there still could be aliens. Just because you don't see them, doesnt mean they aren't there..

If the showrunners had any intention of showing Aliens we would have seen them by now.

Eddie said Corinth is the last city; given how ridiculously intergrated the aliens were on SPD, you'd think we'd see at least one by now (especially with all the extras for the premiere).

If we don't see any throughout the series, it will be beyond obvious theres no aliens around and that world of SPD never happened.

Whether PR continues or not, this is probably for the best.

Z's flashback of the classroom showed aliens intergrated into the class sometime around the 2010s.

Even more confusing were that the aliens were so intergrated that they were accepted by the students as 'normal' while a mutant like Z was considered an outcast.

This means if PR does continue in live action (from 2010 onwards) aliens would need to start arriving on Earth and appearing openly in society as equal members pretty soon.... in order to fit with SPD

It screws alot up.

Here's another possibility to think about:

RPM could be the original timeline/original future before the TF rangers went back to 2001 and altered history.

Notice the connections with the future seen in "Force from the Future" and "Reinforcements from the Future" : the domed cities, the barren radiated earth etc


SPD could be the new timeline/new future resulting from the TF rangers altering 2001;

Notice SPD was formed around 2001 (even though it seemed like a secret operation at the time in flashbacks) and the TF technology (suits) were intergrated into SPD a few years later (Sky's dad)

This way RPM and SPD don't fit together but still fit into the PR time stream.

The Corinth miliatary left humans outside the dome to perish. No difference.

The Corinth military were just a bunch of humans with primitive modern weapons. They didnt have the manpower to save everyone. They are like John Connor's resistence.

SPD is a galactic space organization of planets (it's like the Federation).

Big difference.

Maybe RPM could be in the movie timeline?

 

[Kenori]

Ok why have I never seen this before, and what episode is it from?

My guess is that each PR series (including Masker Rider) is all part of one timeline. Though time travel has been apart of all this, there never has been any real major effects to the plot. If RPM takes place after SPD, 2025, and before TimeForce 3000, then thats a huge gap where RPM can take place. As this is a show ment for todays generation of children who probably havent seen the other series, i doubt they will go into too much depth.

It will be interesting though to see how they do a RPM/Jungle Fury team up, if they ever do
