The guy talks as though being a samurai is akin to some kind of religion. This is one of my problems with PRS, incidentally. They keep loading on attributes of samurais that don't make much sense.
:O_O: You're (still) watching Samurai?

None of the Shinkenger actors can speak English.
As much as I love the Shinkenger, casting any of the actors in an English-speaking role is probably not a good idea. It will definitely affect his or her performance due to language barrier, and that's not something I'd like to see.
I've seen a videoclip of Tori Matsuzaka speaking English for some TV show, but he doesn't seem to know how to say very much (although his accent is good.) I think Hiroki Aiba understands some English as well, the rest probably not so much
To be fair every Japanese person can speak some English. For the Shinkenger cast they would have all started in 7th grade learning (through 12th). But either way I think having a Japanese national being in Power Rangers is just a bad idea. I have a friend from Japan who is studying at the same university as me and his major is English, and yet it still isn't that great (and he's a senior).
Let Sentai keep their Japanese actors and Power Rangers can keep their American/British/Australian/New Zealand Actors.

Really? I'm curious.
This. And besides , why?
The only reason anyone here would have is eye candy and a homage to the Japanese original, but if they did want to , the actor/s would have to be helped with the language possibly a year ahead to make it normal but still it wouldn't be satisfactory. Couldn't they get the actor of MagiGreem to do the seventh ranger? He knows some English...
Scratch that, why not make Dekker the seventh or JYB ? They're both previous rangers and be a homage to a previous season.
