This will be a very different article. The "M" rating is for Mature. This blog entry discusses a theory involving Homosexuality. This is also meant to be a true serious discussion and is not meant to be made light of. I take my Fan Theories very seriously, and I put hard work into them, so please respect that. With all this said, Let's Begin; Wild Force was an amazing season! It was full of many dramatic moments and great characters. Max Cooper was the Blue Ranger. You can find a great article on him titled "Mighty Jungle and Sea Stand out Blue Ranger" on this same site. I have met the actor Phillip Jeanmarie in person. I have also seen many on line interviews with Jack Guzman who played Danny Delgado. This article is really more about the characters and not the actors but acknowledging them is still important in my opinion. Max is a very brash and outspoken character. Every sword needs a sheave. Ha Ha! (Sort of a joke to lighten the mood.) Max's character needed balance or his antics could have easily gotten out of control. Danny was that balance. They were almost like brothers. Almost! However looking at the series from an even more analytical perspective I notice things that really separate them into a different class. For example Max stating "He was going to sleep near Danny " in "Curse of The Wolf", The way they often touch closely, Max kicking Danny lightly in the butt to prove he's still tuff, and The Turtle Cove Lake scenes from "Wishes on the Water." Also that one sequence during the Time Force team-up where Max got hurt during chest bumps and we never found out exactly what was hurting. What if it was his member? Wild Force and Time Force as well were both heavy seasons to be certain. However they were targeted to a youthful demographic, but sometimes things just slip through. Full disclosure in certain moments I strongly see the hidden makings of a potential Gay Couple! Their chemistry is powerful and their loyalty to one another is rarely broken. I have a sharp and powerful mind that likes to break things down to their very core. And I can see what lays underneath. This bond is a thing of beauty in it's own right and Therefore the possibility of it should not be ignored!
There are other important factors to consider. Like Kendall who Danny is shown to have strong feelings for and is featured in two episodes. However she has very little character development and that makes her very unappealing in my eyes. If you like them together good for you but it doesn't quite work for me. Danny gave Kendall a string bracelet. Very sweet, but definitely not as powerful as the bond I see between Danny and Max. A bond that is very well forged and constantly pushes them forward as they face the unknown. I have said before in my First article on Max Cooper that he and Alyssa had a nice connection and I still stand by that, but at the end of the day they are two very different people. Good friends to be certain but far from having a really powerful connection. Finally there was the scene where Max attempted to charm Nadira at the Time Force and Wild Force picnic. Nadira turns him down! Did she dodge a bullett there? Also they go to Europe together after Master Org is defeated. Kendall was not invited. What awaits Max and Danny in Europe? How long before the curtain is pulled back and the truth is Revealed? Theory articles are fun! I should do more next year! I'd start sooner but I'm too psyched for movie reviews. Supporting or Shipping a gay couple does not make you gay in my opinion. If you like seeing them together and their chemistry intrigues you then embrace it. Max and Danny or call them "Manny" could easily be a great centerpiece in a Wild Force reboot that could be broadcast for a more mature audience. It could also work well in a new Power Rangers comic. Gay characters in comics have been becoming more and more common since the early 2000s. Finding a gay pair on TV admirable is a lot like seeing a gay relative of yours and his partner as sweet or adorable. It also shows openness of your own mind and heart. Final importantt point it would actually be a really fun twist if Danny actually came out first, since Max was the original outspoken character that would be really radical! Here's a quick reminder of couples or pairs discussed on the blog between June and October of 2020; TJ & Cassie, Leo & Kendrix, Carter & Dana, Zack & Angela, Tommy & Kimberly, Tommy & Kat, Cole & Taylor, and Max and Danny. For the time being our romance unit will now be coming to a close. I hope you have all enjoyed it. Fanon pairs can be a lot of fun but don't over promote them. However using your imagination is always important and is definitely key to living life to its fullest! Power to the PR ships! Cheers to the second Theory article! and A mighty salute To both Canon and Fanon PR romance. I also hope to do more mature entries in the future! in Honor of Wild Force, here is their morph call; Wild Access! I wish you all well and happy shipping! All fanon ideas expressed here are solely my opinions and not directly related to the actual show!
Congratulations on delving into an interesting relationship! I think you did a good job of showing why you think there may be a gay couple there. Love, friendship, and being together with people you care about are very important parts of life!
I think this is your best blog ever!!! Congratulations. You are very tactful in discussing homosexuality. Your points supporting that thesis are RIGHT ON! And comparisons to their other close friends show that Max and Danny are really special. Of course, the photos help too. Writing is perfectly clear and interesting and succint. Great job. I hope the world pays more attention to this.
