With a thread for thoughts on the Riders, it seemed like the time for one about Sentai.
It's no great surprise that Ishinomori was responsible for Kamen Rider, but what about his role in bringing forth the first Sentai (or the one we consider to be first): Himitsu Sentai Gorenger!?
In the Rider thread, it's noted that most if not all of the Showa Riders are those who fight fascists and authority. In Goranger, the team is part of authority by being part of the defense group EAGLE, which is surprising in that Shocker was symbolized with an eagle!
There have been other defense and military groups in Sentai, like the Earth Defense Force of Changeman and U.A.O.H. in Ohranger. However, there have also been the rogues and rebels who fight vast and powerful factions who maintain a stranglehold on the peace of the universe. Gokaiger VS. Zangyack or Kyuranger VS. Jark Matter to name some noteworthy examples.
Part of the detail regarding Goranger is that it was billed as Kamen Rider but with five of them. I have seen some information that suggests that the conception phase of what became Stronger considered the idea of Five Riders, but it was too different for the time, hence why we ended-up with Stronger and Goranger. Of note, the Go-Riders were apparently the realization of this originally-unrealized concept (years after the fact, of course).
Perhaps one of the main question that all this comes down to is: What were Ishinomori's thoughts on Gorenger and Sentai at large?
Perhaps there are other, more pressing questions. Perhaps someone's response isn't even a question as opposed to just being a conclusion one came to.
What are your thoughts on Sentai?
