The end of Gokaiger with them using the combined power of the other Super Sentai teams. Epic.

My favourite moment is from Shinkenger... A great series all round, but I absolutely loved ShinkenRed's final battle with Juuzou. It had been building up since his first appearance, and didn't disappoint, especially when Uramasa betrayed Juuzou right at the moment he had been waiting all his life for.

Gekiranger.
Looking back on it, the entire series was my favorite moment (And because it's no longer limited to moments in 2012, I can now gush more ). Very rarely does a series enthrall me so well that I can't stop marathoning it. The character of Jan began as the stereotypical jungle boy in modern day, but he grows, and while his "Nikiniki wazawaza" doesn't quite disappear, his demeanor and attitude grow for the better, but he also never loses that million dollar smile. Ran and Retsu didn't have much to do, both being the straight man to the rest of the cast, but they both had enough to them that made them memorable characters (Ran's being the leader, Retsu just being one of the best characters to watch whenever he gets focus), Gou is the definition of badass. And Ken. Yeah, he was there too. I could gush on and on about Rio and Mele, so I'll try to be brief. Rio and Mele are the kinds of villains I want to see more of. The villains who are actual characters in and of themselves. They have story arcs, they have emotions beyond "GRRAR MY MONSTER DIED LET ME SCREAM FOR THE NEXT 5 MINUTES!", they were absolutely perfect (Though Mele's fangirling over Rio did get a little old 40 episodes in), and I long to see Sentai create villains and characters like them again. The suits did take some time for them to grow on me, but after they did, I loved them. Slim and sleek to invoke fluidity, exactly what a martial arts series should do. GekiTouja wasn't the best mecha, but I grew to enjoy the commentated fights, too. Gekiranger managed to do everything right, in my eyes. Placing emphasis on story, while keeping the fights stylish and enjoyable to watch, making the villains actual characters, and just being a great experience. Too many Sentai recommendations are based almost entirely on "The suits and mecha look cool." And it too Gekiranger to show me that not all Sentai are Style over Substance.

For me the greatest moment of the year was sitting down and watching the Super Hero Taisen sub with my nephews (5 and 7). They've been curious about Kamen Rider and look forward to watching episodes of OOOs and Fourze with me when I visit. They already love Power Rangers Samurai, so it's a treat for them to see the Gokai Rangers and Go-Busters-who are brand new in their eyes. On top of that, subs are a great reading exercise

It's random for me in a way. I've always been interested in the stuff, and I have bought various items from the stores over the years just because of how cool I thought it looked. Recently I was captivated by the Samurai line, and I had gotten in on the tail end of it. It started simply with me buying what I thought was a really cool figure. The Red Super Mega Samurai Ranger. Then I purchased the Yellow Ranger. I thought I would stop there, and for a while I just had them doing battle with Godzilla and company. It didn't stop there though. I was so fascinated with them that I got online and started looking up things, and I became more and more entranced. Then I made my way to Youtube and as random as this is, it made me a full on fan... Now I'm ruined.

My favorite moment this year had to be when Akagi transformed into Akibared in real life to save Sayaka. It was hard not to cheer him on as he proceeded to kick ass.
Though Gokaiger's final battle, Go Buster's "final" battle against Messiah, the beginning of KR Wizard, and the concept of Super Hero Taisen were pretty sweet as well. |

mine would be fom Decade in Den-O world. Just seeing the finisher attack with Kuuga Goram given Momotaros's comedic style had me busting a gut

hmmm of ALL TIME?!?! Well I haven't been in the Toku fandom that long, but I'd have to say W... all of it. Best Rider show ever, most of the movies were amazing (sorry, Eternal) and just a great cast who totally loved what they were doing. Having Shotaro's actor being a Rider fan himself also helped a little lol
