Power Rangers Ninja Storm Star Found Dead
By NICK VALDEZ

Power Rangers Ninja Storm is one of the most popular iterations of the Power Rangers franchise, but unfortunately fans will now have to view the series with a heavy heart. The New Zealand Herald reports that Pua Magasiva, who portrayed the Red Wind Ranger Shane Clarke in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, has been found dead in Wellington at the age of 38. According to the report, police confirmed they were called to a sudden death in the early hours of the morning.

No cause has been given as to the cause behind his passing, and a spokewoman for South Pacific Pictures confirmed Magasiva's death and could not make any further comment, according to the Herald. A police spokeswoman did confirm to the Herald there were no suspicious circumstances.


Magasiva was one of the only Samoan actors in the entire Power Rangers franchise, and to this day remains the only one to have donned the Red Ranger suit. Magasiva lead the Power Rangers Ninja Storm team in 2003, and is one of the biggest reasons the series is so fondly looked back on today by fans.

Magasiva was the first in a line of firsts for the Power Rangers franchise as Ninja Storm was the first iteration of the series to air its full run on ABC. It was the first series to be produced in New Zealand. Ninja Storm was the first to begin its series with only three main rangers on its team at first, and the first to expand its roster with a Crimson and Navy ranger. These are many of the reasons fans still recommend the series to this day.

Information about Magasiva's memorial services have not been revealed as of this writing. Our thoughts are with Pua Magasiva's loved ones at this time, and fans will be morning the loss of such a powerful Red Ranger in both fiction and real life.

Only spergs like Linkara care about Power Rangers in 2019, but RIP and so young. Living in NZ must be hell.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

I didn't really watch beyond MMPR, but as long as he wasn't a pedo or a creep, still sad.

 

[frozenrunner]

Awful news. Poor guy.

Thats sad news.

I stopped watching PR after Lightspeed Rescue, still have the Super Train Megazord in storage.

 

[Slimy Time]

I remember watching a few episodes when it came out, was alright for rangershit if memory serves correctly. Unfortunate that the guy died young.

 

[drtoboggan]

Too bad it wasn't Jason David Frank.

Too bad it wasn't Jason David Frank.

What do you have against him?

On another note, isn't it curious that several actors of the Power Rangers cast faced untimely deaths? All the clickbait sites have made note of this, and now, they can add Mr. Magasiva's death to the list.

Obviously Rita Repulsa is hexing them to death in order to orchestrate her escape into reality.

In a cast of hundreds, it's pretty much the law of averages that some will have accidents or die young, it's sad, but that's life.

 

[indio solari]

This was my favourite PR series growing up, but it was mostly because of the hot blonde chick.

He's pretty much to Power Rangers what Wil Wheaton is to Star Trek. Both Played Boring and Bland characters, Both characters tended to be Mary-Sues. Both characters were emotionally validated constantly. Both were arrogant and thought huge leading roles would come their way, but neither put in any effort into improving their acting skills.

Frank is still clinging to Power Rangers all these years later and he's nearly 50. He still make appearances on the show for anniversaries, but they're so horrible because they have to take time away to suck his dick and tell him how awesome he is and inevitably he gets to be the one to be the big hero and save the day. The most recent one was horrible for it.

Wasn't Ninja Storm the season where their mentor was a gerbil or some shit?

 

[drtoboggan]

I'm guessing drugs killed him.

 

[UnKillShredDur]

Guy should have listened to the song... don't be rama rama, and don't sniff petrol in a can.

Yes. a Guinea pig to be exact. Only because the Actor who played the Sensei/ Mentor in his Human form also played Lothor the main villain of the series.
