    They totally do all have their colors as their main shirt color

    Hi

    I'm here from the fashion thread to let you know that you might be colorblind

    Ok to be clear

    I know that dark navy is not the same as "blue"

    But I really don't need them to wear the exact correct colors as long as they pay homage to them

    I'm not talking about that

    I'm talking more about the burgundy that you seem to think is pink

    Or the orange that is "yellow-ish"

    purple and pink are in the same family

    and orange IS yellow-ish

    Burgundy isn't purple, and I wouldn't put purple and pink in the same family either anyways. Pink is just a lighter shade of red and a warm color while purple is a combination of two primary colors and a cool color.


    Edit: sweet color pedantry TOTP for page 100.

    I disagree on both of those points.

    Also burgundy is much more a shade of red than a shade of purple, but that's just quibbling.

    They are!

    There's some really weird history behind them too, like how certain ancient cultures didn't have a word for blue, possibly because they couldn't see blue.

    Obviously not actually, but there's a huge linguistic component to the perception of color that can really screw with perceptions.

    I just think its super cool that I was like "I find this to be an acceptable homage to the original colors because they're close enough" and was swiftly and justly told that I am wrong to think that, thank you for showing me the error of my ways

    Purple is pretty cool.

    It's a royal color because purple dye was so expensive.

    Yeah, Japan always saw blue and green as shades of the same color and didn't really distinguish much between the two until they started getting a bunch of exposure to Western stuff. The lines we draw between "shades" are pretty damn arbitrary.

    Taking it a little personally there, bud. We disagreed on the "close enough" part is all.

    I mean, if you think it's an homage, that's rad.

    Like, I know literally nothing about Power Rangers, I have no dog in this fight.

    From an outsider point of view however, the colors do not look to be what you are claiming they are.

    I'm not arguing about Power Rangers, I'm arguing about what colors are visible in that image.

    Homer keeps using the epithet wine-dark for the ocean, and while that's hardly conclusive proof

    I've drank a lot of wine and swam in a lot of water

    And those two ain't very similar

    Fun fact, green apples in Japan are called aoi ringo, which we would translate as "blue apple"

    Also traffic lights in Japan are the shade of green that is as close to blue as legally possible according to international traffic laws.

    I'm frustrated because I've repeated that I do not actually think Burgandy = Pink about 10 times and people seem to be extremely sure that I cannot see what colors are

    I'm sorry you're feeling nitpicked. I think just nobody else is really taking this discussion very seriously. I sure wasn't. No one actually thinks you're colorblind or dumb or anything. I don't think anyone else really cares how you classify colors either.

    I'm gonna go with: Trini, Tommy, Zack, Kimberly, and Jason. Billy is the missing "Nerdy Ranger" of course. Kimberly and Trini are kind of interchangeable here because I'm not sure how to quantify the difference between friendly and happy in a meaningful way.
