“Trini is important to me because she was one of the first Asian American superheroes I saw on TV,” said Mada. “As a female singer who loves American superheroes, it was powerful for me to see this republic on children’s TV. It made me feel like I know that Power Ranger fans are watching Power Ranger because she played Trini because she played Putty Butt, part of a team of superheroes dedicated to protecting the universe.”
