Why? Sure, Gobusters is starting to get a little too repetitive, but not enough to just stop watching it.
As for AkibaRanger, how do we know it will not get bad? I mean, the first half of episode 1 was pretty bad, while the second half was great. How do we know the show is not going to be bad like the first half? |

Miho-chan is really kawaii, but she's forever stuck behind her desk as a background character. I really expected Akibaranger to be bad, but Toei rolled with the concept and it actually worked. You can't fault them for anything in this show, as it was meant to be cheap.

It was very meh for me, as far as I got. Episode 13 (I think) was really bad, I think it was the next episode was pretty good, but then the very ending made me mad, and I quit another episode or two after that, because I just didn't care about any of the characters. I do kinda like the mecha, but not a ton (the SRC figure is pretty great though).
I started Shinkenger and I liked it much better, so I dumped Dekaranger for the foreseeable future. |

I thought the best episode in the series was the DekaMaster apperance episode, and then episodes 3 and 4. The introduction of SWAT mode is pretty cool though, but yeah, the rest after that are bland. Plus, Ban is super annoying and started the whole screaming red phase. MagiRanger is better than Deka, but the ranger cast is retarded. This is one show that the villians are what make the show good. |

I loved Dekaranger because it didn't have some sort of evil empire looking to take over the world or whatever. Each monster was in it for themselves, and then Agent Abrella stayed in the shadows for as long as he could gathering intel before taking the team on. For me it was a far more enjoyable approach than the usual Sentai formula, even if it was made up of mostly standalone episodes (which I don't think is a bad thing). The cast were great and so were the mecha, which is why its one of my favourite Sentai series. Magiranger is better though, everything about that show was just brilliant.

I like the idea of an overarching enemy for the entire show, that's something that interests me about Gokaiger, but the execution that instance is stupid.
Why do they only send one commander each week? Other than so the GOkaigers can kick their ass? There's NO REASON why the entire armada, that's just sitting out in space, doesn't beam everyone down and kill everybody. They have overwhelming numbers, and no reason why they couldn't actually defeat the Gokiagers, other than being pants-on-head retarded (to quote Yahtzee). On the other hand, I'm really enjoying GoBusters, precisely for the reason that they have set up and explained that are limitations in how big a force can be sent to attack at once. Enter even suggests in the third episode that they wait a bit, until they have sufficient energy to send 5 or 6 of the giant robots because the GoBusters couldn't stand up to that many, but his crazy boss doesn't have the patience for that yet (I also love that Messiah is the Red Skull). It seems like Shinkenger is trying to tell me there's some reason why only one major demon can attack at once, but I haven't really understood it yet. |

I'm enjoying Go-Busters and Akibaranger. Go-Busters does seem like it's in a phase where it's not really interesting, but a lot of Sentai start out this way. Akibaranger was just hilarious right off the bat. I have all of Dairanger, so I need to get around to that. I actually rewatched some of the henshins and PR morphs. Makes me want to re-watch Gekiranger and Go-Onger, my 2 favorites(other than Gokaiger)
I've come to like all of the Sentai. Even if I didn't like it, or I started to lose interest, I kept going because things have a tendency to grow on me. Lo and behold, after the last episode, I really end up enjoying it. Dekranger and Goseiger were both like this. And after completion, I came to appreciate the episodes I didn't like so much even more. But that's just me.

I also like Magiranger as well, due to its family dynamic and its zord MagiKing has got to be one of the best in Super Sentai I've ever seen. |
