After Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once and Forever celebrated the 30th anniversary of the original show, the next Power Rangers show to get a reunion should be SPD – especially if it were possible to do so in 2025. Although Power Rangers had many crossover episodes and nostalgic cameos, the franchise had never done a proper reunion for a specific season before Once and always. Given the importance Power Rangers turning 30, it only made sense to bring back some of the original cast members for a TV special.
Of course, no other Power Rangers season is as iconic as Powerful Morphinealthough the original series is arguably not the best entry in the franchise. It would be naive to believe that all or most Power Rangers seasons would have an anniversary special like Powerful Morphine did, which doesn't mean that the franchise shouldn't celebrate other important chapters in its history. For example, 2025 is a very special year in Power Rangers chronology.
A Power Rangers SPD reunion in 2025 would bring the futuristic show full circle
We finally reach the distant future of Power Rangers SPD
While Power Rangers SPD was released in 2005the show was set in 2025. In other words, a Power Rangers SPD The reunion next year would not only be a celebration of the program's 20th anniversary, but also a recognition of the fact that we have finally achieved the SPDthe future. Power Rangers SPD was not the first season to be set in the future, with Time Force also playing with the show's chronology in 2001.
However, while Time ForceThe first episode was set in the year 3000, before Jen and her team traveled to 2001, most SPD occurred in 2025. For those who watched Power Rangers SPD when it was released, it might come as a shock to realize that those 20 years referenced as the distant future have already passed in the real world. Interestingly, given how different the contemporary world is shown in recent Power Rangers seasons like Cosmic Fury is what SPD predicted, some like to see the 2005 season as an alternative future.
Why a 2025 Power Rangers SPD Reunion Is Unlikely (Despite It Looking Great)
Power Rangers should celebrate SPD's birthday even if not with an official meeting
A suitable and official document Power Rangers SPD it would have to at least be announced now for it to be released in 2025. Furthermore, as much as Power Rangers fans would like to see some sort of celebration for SPD20th anniversary, this is unlikely to happen anyway. Still, it would be fun to save at least some kind of SPD reunion next year, even if just the cast reunites without a script. Another fun possibility would be to have a SPDcentered comic book from BOOM! Studios.
It would also be interesting to have any kind of canonical confirmation as to whether SPD still works as part of the main Power Rangers timeline, or whether it's better to label it as an alternate universe season like RPM or Dino Charge. Anyway, SPD will always be remembered as one of the best Power Rangers seasons of all time, and the show should be especially celebrated in 2025, even if it never sees a reunion like Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once and Forever.
