Ohranger's "Oh Red" Ranger Starts Tokyo Tokusatsu Bar

Masaru Shishido, known for his portrayal of the Oh Red ranger in the 1995 Chōriki Sentai Ohranger tokusatsu television series, started "Crystal Sky," a tokusatsu bar in Tachikawa, Tokyo on April 10. Shishido is the owner of the bar, as well as its "producer," and has created displays where visitors can look at props, photos, goods, and so on from the show. Visitors can also sing karaoke for free at the bar.

A variety of food and drink will be offered at the bar, including soft drinks (500 yen, about US$6), as well as beer and cocktails (600 yen, about US$7). The store also has a table charge of 1,500 yen (about US$18), as well as a 1000 yen (about US$12) charge for every hour customers stay at the bar. "Crystal Sky" was also the name of an insert song and ending theme for the Ohranger show. Footage from Ohranger was used to create the American Power Rangers Zeo program.
