I know that this series has become more like Ranger of the Decade than of the Month however continuing with the series ...the next ranger Power Rangers woman who I wanted is the Yellow Sabertooth Tiger Ranger Trini Kwan. This post is also dedicated to the actress who portrayed her Thuy Trang who sadly passed away in 2001.

Trini and Kimberly together
The third girl in the glasses is Trini's Roomate Anouk who was recently introduced in the Boom Comic Book series.

When I planned the first 2 Rangers of the month were very clearly going to be Kimberly and Trini as I am pretty sure those are the first two female rangers that most people think about.
Trini is a really awesome character. She possesses the Sabertooth Tiger power coin allowing her to morph into the Yellow Power ranger. Her signature weapon is a set of Daggers. Like the other power rangers it gives her enhanced Strength and durability, teleportation and she can summon a gigantic mech known as a Zord to fight against the evil forces of evil. Her Zord the Sabertooth Tiger Zord is ferocious and fast. It can also combine with the other Rangers Zords to become a giant mech robot called the Megazord. Trini's Zord forms the right foot of it. In season 2 of the series her Sabertooth Tiger Zord is upgraded to a Griffin Thunderzord.
Trini is a perfectly balanced character possessing intelligence, beauty, strength and kindness. In addition to her ranger abilities she honed her skills as a martial artist and is an expert at Kung Fu. She also has a lot of admirable traits within her personality being calm and focused but at the same time being determined. There were episodes I still remember from the series to this day. One was where she looked after her cousin and showed herself to be a great mentor. Another episode involved her in a showdown against a Praying Mantis monster that showcased her Kung fu knowledge and her strong sense of honor.
From the interviews I heard being given about her, her actress Thuy Trang was also equally amazing as her Power Ranger counterpart. The other actors always talk about how kind and sweet and what a wonderful person she was.
Ok everyone that is all for now. Hopefully the next Power Ranger of the Month post will be a little bit sooner than 8 years. ^_^;
Go Go Power Rangers,
