 Show Power Rangers Mystic Force (often abbreviated as "PRMF") is the fourteenth season of Power Rangers, based upon the Super Sentai series, Mahou Sentai Magiranger. The series aired exclusively on Toon Disney's Jetix block throughout the year of 2006. In 2012, a Japanese dub of the show had aired in Japan on Toei's TV channel, which was narrated by Atsushi Hashimoto, who portrayed Kai Ozu/MagiRed in Magiranger. [1] ProductionAccording to executive producer Bruce Kalish, he started work on Mystic Force immediately after wrapping on SPD but he was more familiar with the production after SPD. The choice to make Mystic Force more fantasy inspired with magic and mythical monsters was reportedly his own decision as, although Magiranger used a lot of the same elements, they introduced the idea of Briarwood and the monster world which is a PR exclusive idea. To help with writing, he made Jackie Marchand story-editor which was a position that she had wanted for years but never obtained and she remained in the position until partway through Power Rangers RPM two years later. Producer Sally Campbell has stated that this is her favourite season because of how creative they were able to be with the more fantastical elements allowed by a magic-based season. Casting for Mystic Force is notable since it was the first season of Power Rangers to have an entirely Australian or New Zealander cast whereas prior seasons had at least one American. The cast were asked to do American accents although Richard Brancatisano/Xander Bly was allowed to retain his thick Australian accent since "my American accent was very bad." Peta Rutter had mostly worked in theatre up to this point under her own company before being hired as Udonna. Antonia Prebble had previously voiced the Nova Ranger in SPD and played Krista in Dino Thunder and was brought back to play Claire and her mother Niella for Mystic Force since she is reportedly a gifted actress. Firass Dirani was reportedly a very hard and determined worker who took his role as Nick Russell "very seriously and intensely." John Tui, who returned to play Daggeron, reportedly preferred this role over his previous role as Doggie Kruger since "I couldn't properly express my acting [as] I was covered by that dog head and costume." Mystic Force's sets were designed by two people; Shayne Redford (lead set designer in Ninja Storm) and Dino Thunder's head of set design Miro Harre. The Rangers' base of Rootcore was mostly filmed in the car park outside the studio with blue screens for the background and a miniature for Rootcore itself. However, the surrounding scenes of the Rangers entering and exiting Rootcore through its dragon-head entrance as well as the forest scenes were filmed on the island of Puketutu about forty miles from Auckland. The interiors of Rootcore were all sound-stages although plaster was used in lieu of fibreglass because they "always try to go with the old-school manner of making organic shapes." Udonna's crystal ball which she used throughout the season was only a real crystal ball in close-ups as distant shots with it just being set-dressing instead used a hard-shell dome. Due to the budgetary issues of SPD caused by the CGI final battle, Disney told the crew to use as much Sentai footage as possible and "make bottle episodes." SPD had a final battle so expensive that it cost almost the entire season's budget and Disney didn't want to repeat the same mistakes so butchered the budget and told the crew to use the Sentai footage whenever possible. To compensate for the recycled footage, they decided to make the season much grander in scale which is where the idea of Nick being "the light" came from. The final two episodes of Mystic Force ("Mystic Fate") introduced the character of the Mystic Mother as played by Machiko Soga and dubbed by Susan Brady. Soga is most well known for playing Witch Bandora in Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger and by extension Rita Repulsa in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers but the Mystic Mother's counterpart Heavenly Arch Saint Magiel had no relation to Bandora besides having the same actress. In the Power Rangers adaptation, this was changed to have the Mystic Mother be Rita herself as a tribute to Soga who died of pancreatic cancer during the Mystic Force's production with Magiel being her final acting role. SynopsisLegend says when the Darkness arises, five brave teen Sorcerers will be called to fight for the planet's survival. With guidance from their wise mentor and the ancient Xenotome, Book of the Unknown, they will embark on magical adventures, befriend mystical dragons, battle dangerous beasts, encounter pure evil, and transform into the Power Rangers Mystic Force.
