Zyuranger. It's my favorite and I'm glad I found out about it. I loved Geki and Burai's story and I liked how the team was somewhat what a typical person in this day and age is like but just displaced due to their tribal roots. Like how Dan enjoyed those books be read.

Though I thoroughly enjoyed SPD, Gokaiger, Gekiranger, Dairanger, Jetman and Hurricanger.

For me, it's probably Gokaiger. It's not my favorite, but I did really get sucked into the characters, the world, and the legacy of Super Sentai. I actually watched a lot of first episodes of other Sentai series while Gokaiger was airing, just to sample them all so I could understand what Gokaiger was taking from them. In general, the show left me on such a big Sentai high that I forced myself to watch the whole next season when normally I'd have dropped it about a third of the way through.

Even though Jetman is my favourite show over all the one that will always have a special place in my heart is Samurai Sentai Shinkenger.

It is by no means a perfect show and it has some really big flaws but it was the show that really got me into Toku.
Shinkenger was the first series I saw beginning to end while it was airing and it sparked that little fire in me that grew and grew over the years.

Bbsically the same feels, except for Jetman.

Gekiranger is the best Sentai I have seen, and probably the best tokusatsu show in general, Matrix already mentioned it's strenghts, great characters, a split focus between heroes and villains and a very interesting storyline with great pacing, every episode was relevant and it definitely was the show that gripped me the most.

But Go-Busters may be my favorite in the end, even with it's flaws it was love at first sight and I enjoyed every minute of it to the max, the more realistic storyline, the incredible mech fights and the incredibly entertaining cast make Go-Busters a great show too.

I would define a gripping show as one that holds my attention from beginning to end with little to no wavering.

With that in mind, it has to be Gokaiger for me with Kakuranger being a close second (mainly because subs are unfinished). I've talked enough about Gokaiger that I don't want to repeat myself. So simply put, I always looked forward to the next episode and was pleased with what I saw after each episode. There was never a time that I was dreading the next episode, which is more than I can say for some of the other Sentais I would place among my favorites.

At the moment, I would say Gokaiger. But to be honest Sentai hasn't had the gripping effect on me like Kamen Rider has. I never marathon watched a Sentai show like I did for Ryuki, W, or even Den-O.

I'm right there with you, Winston.

Gokaiger is the most gripping to me (and my favorite). Kyoryuger comes close on both counts as well. But yeah, in general, I find Kamen Rider captures my attention more consistently.

It's probably because of Sentai's unwavering commitment to their classic structure. Leaves very little room for an engaging story.

hard to decide.. but timeranger and dekaranger. cop themed sentai makes my heart beat fast.. lol

Tensou Sentai Goseiger. Start to finish it had me. And it is my absolute favorite series I've watched.
