One thing I love about Sentai is it knows to get right into the action. They already are fighting 4 minutes in most of the time. You already know the power rangers formula of

Dumb intro that means nothing
comedy
Monsters talking
comedy characters doing poo poo
rangers meet the monster
"drama"
they fight again
zords

It's really repetitive because unlike Sentai the characters have no development through all of that. I just watched episode 2 of Kyoryuger and they did blue and pink in the same ep and ddin't make it feel half assed and without all the dumb "comedy". All of the comedy is done in battle where it belongs. They understand people watch to see the suit and fighting while power rangers thinks kids really loving love the actors for some reason. It also promotes the toys well without being intrusive. My 2 year old daughter love to watch Shinkenger with me but she cant stand to watch Megaforce/Samurai for more then 5 minutes.

I decided to finish Shinkenger before starting Fourze but I got to the Decade crossover and stopped to watch that. I'm very interested but I only hear bad things about it. I really have no idea what's going on other than a vague "They cross dimensions and do stuff, worlds get destroyed?" Why is it hated? Are the fight scenes any better?

Oh I watched the crossover for both series already, forgot to clarify. Guess i'll watch other series before being disappointed with Decade.

It did seem overly negative at times but brought a different perspective on the show and gave some background info I didn't know. Did not agree about the story being non existent though.

There's also these guys, who do the research, but come off more as guys just watching the show.

And yeah, they're responsible for that Power Rider prank.

I like these guys, their enthusiasm is enduring.

They spend 30 minutes hyping up Gokaiger for Linkara in the first episode.

"So have we convinced you to at least try out sentai? One episode of Gokaiger?"

"No. I have no interest in the Sentai."

I finished Shikenger a couple weeks ago and i'm gonna do a write up on it, Gokaiger, and Kyoryuger when I stop being lazy.

Starting Ohranger and it's fuckin badass. I love the feel of older Sentai, the grittyness, washed out colors, cool rear end monsters, and how the team doesn't dance and laugh their way through every fight.

The Kyoryugers are somehow having more fun than the Gokaigers. Didn't think that was possible.

Saban had a terrible time adapting Turbo hence its shittyness. Power Rangers was serious business and here they are suck with a comedy series. Plus they had to switch the entire cast it was so bad. That's why Space was gonna be the last series because Turbo was so bad. Carranger saved sentai, Turbo almost killed Power Rangers.

Kamen Rider W is a pretty cool guy even if his Monster designs kinda suck.

Thankfully the story, opening theme, Rider design, and Phillip make up for everything. My friend was over today, he doesn't watch toku, I asked him to watch episode 5 with me and he was like "So the girl and boy join bodies? Does he get tits under the suit?" :ssh:

Jetman has a villian smoking Black and Mild Cigars and that's ALL I smoke. Best Sentai of all time. This and W are pretty ahead of the pack right now.

I'll put it this way. There was a ground hog day type episode where the Rangers were killed by new weapons made for them due to Plot. Carter knew this. He gets put in a situation where he's face to face with a monster that is, due to plot, about to kill another of his teammates, and he has the thing at point blank range with both that weapon and a stronger weapon. He doesn't even hesitate to pull the trigger, which shreds his suit. He then goes on to pilot a Megazord by himself immediately after, only passing out after killing the monster.

That's pretty drat badass. Oh, and, you know, not even flinching when he orders his teammates to seal him in hell to save the day.

Lightspeed is a badass underrated season. The green ranger is awesome, and carter is a new age Jason. The whole show is a retread of mmpr kinda but different. I liked it.

Up to Episode 33 of W and even though there's been a few Deus Ex Machinas and Accel still has the personality of a brick it's still building to something awesome. The monster designs got extremely better as the series went on, the montage in episode 32 was one of the most unintentionally funny things i've seen, and seeing Phillip dressed as a girl made me ask myself questions I do not want to answer. I love the low amount of filler as well. I guess Kamen Rider is a little better than Sentai with that?

Search the facebook Toku fan pages for the dub I know it's on there somewhere.

When I watched Shinkenger the filler really irritated me because I wanted to see what would happen next and it was OBVIOUS filler. Still my favorite though.
