I know it won’t happens cause Super Sentai is more friendly than Kamen Rider but considered Kamen Rider Build contain elements from classic Showa Kamen Riders, I would like if future Sentai contain elements from late 80s and early 90s specifically Liveman and Jetman and go back to basic of old Sentai
I don’t remember the last time where a Sentai show that is very emotional one where it make you cry but I could be wrong. Anyway, I would love a Sentai show that is the most somber Sentai show of recent years where Rangers get a hard-hitting question that is very difficult for them to answer and I would like the villains to be the most sinister and eviler Sentai villains ever similar to Vyram from Jetman Again, it wouldn’t happens but who know? Maybe it could happens Do you agree or disagree with this? P.S. I really enjoyed Lupinranger VS. Patranger so far. Last edited by vin13ish; 06-10-2018 at 07:43 PM.. |

Honestly I found ToQger emotional. It is a watered down Flashman in essence, but upon rewatching it I found I enjoyed it a lot more than the first time. Even despite some of its less-than-stellar characters such as the whole Rainbow Line crew*
But I agree with your main point. The 80s and 90s were Sentai's golden age. Current Sentai will have some good ideas here and there, and I do like that post-Gokaiger Sentai has been trying some new things, but for the most part these shows don't make good use of their material; it's too safe and too much the shiller of merchandise that at times doesn't even try to look believable. The sidearms in Zyuohger and Lupin vs Pat are examples of this. *Actually, these side characters have been a constant problem with the most recent Sentais. They're completely irritating in their cartoony hijinks that would send other people into a sanitarium.) |

I would say that this year's is pretty emotional at least on the Lupin side of things if you check out their motivations to be rangers. And ToQger at first did not seem like it but as things started being revealed it got emotional at the end.
Black Fang wrapped it up nicely, ToQger is a watered-down Flashman and it's funny cause it's true.

Anyway, I would love a Sentai show that is the most somber Sentai show of recent years where Rangers get a hard-hitting question that is very difficult for them to answer and I would like the villains to be the most sinister and eviler Sentai villains ever similar to Vyram from Jetman Looking at Bouken for example, and there are some tear jerker moments, same to Geki. While they have these thick coats of surreality to them, they still manage to work in stronger themes. As time goes on, much of sentai and kamen rider for that matter is kind of a mirror of our times. What's happening on the world stage often spills over into the themes and storylines of shows in metaphoric ways. Take for example the divisiveness going on over in build and looking at some of the divisiveness of the world stage, and you see mirrors of our times through it. The same is true for other years of Sentai and Rider shows. We have Kabuto during a time of Government agency questioning, and how Tendo stood away from it. You have the complicated natures of other years blending into the overtones of their respective shows as well. Even Hibiki and it's story of choice through the eyes of growing up, was heavily covered in tradition speaking to concerns of the time as well of not forgetting history/tradition/cultural ancestry. The same is true dating all the way back to their inceptions, and other 70s series. Each is a product of their time and the prevalent mindsets, fears, and mentalities that pervaded. Same as how Godzilla grew and changed per each era as well. Ultraman too. So I really wouldn't be surprised if we get something a bit more somber but also comedic blended coming up within the next 4 years. Same as next year's rider and maybe 2 others after it may contain some unique material to the brand as a whole as they dive more into the influences of the modern world that induces creativity and how the zeitgeist needs the material to further it forward as creative works tend to bookend or bookmark the mentalities of the time. Some constants remain true though, as the world gets more complicated and scary, sometimes beacons of hope and light are needed more to cling to. But how that is approached can vary.
