Eh, seems to get the job done.
Characters are alright.
The suits are alright too after seeing them in action.

They're both really good shows so I don't think you can go wrong with either. Though I'd probably give it to Abaranger if only because the characters there are a bit more fleshed out.

To be completely honest, it's mostly Abarekiller that makes me want to watch the series.

Abarekiller is introduced in episode 17 or 18. I'm currently around episode 33 or 34, and, uh, he's still a bad guy. He's a far better execution of an "evil ranger" than Dragonranger or even Zyuoh The World, because Abarekiller is more believably evil for a much longer period. And he clashes with Abaranger's tone, which is VERY silly. If it weren't for Go-Onger it would probably be the goofiest Sentai of 2000-09.

Yeah, I like the idea of a ranger that stays evil for as long as he does.

To be fair though, Dragonranger came first, so they already had the foundation to build upon for Abarekiller. I kind of get the feeling that Abarekiller is them taking Dragonranger's evil aspects to the next level. I haven't gotten to Zyuoh The World yet, but I was disappointed to hear that he doesn't stay antagonistic for all that long.

Nah Magiranger takes the cake for goofiest sentai of the 2000's. Go-Onger's goofy but not stupid goofy.

Epsilon, I'd recommend Gingaman. Even if Aba's a great show Gingaman arguably has the best story, some of the best arcs, scenery and score ever, it's a fantastic show that is INSANELY creative.

Lol, Magiranger was goofy ? Following this logic, every Sentai which aren't super dark are goofy. Magiranger was light hearted, but definitly not goofy. And disliking a show doesn't make it stupid...

So Magiranger had a similar tone to shows like Jetman, Megaranger, Dekaranger, Boukenger and Gekiranger? Examples of Sentai that weren't super dark?

But a show with a talking plant for a mentor and rangers who don't act like they have a brain isn't goofy, okay. It's arguably one of the most goofiest sentai I've seen period.

Goofy isn't bad if it's done right either.

OMG a talking plant in my show where people fight against plastic monster in colored spandex ! It's so goofy ! Talking plants/animals/whatever are pretty much in every stories with magic elements. What's next ? The show'is goofy because they have magic powers ?

And i don't see how it's more "goofy" than a show whith giant talking cars with big eyes, a team where even the serious characters end up as comedic relief against ennemies who are comedic relief as well...

it's not different than Megaranger or Dekaranger in terms of team. Two members of the team are the "dumb ones" (Kai-Houka/Kenta-Miku/Ban-Umeko) while the others are more serious...

And i never said goofy=bad. Just that there is a difference between goofy and light-hearted.

Bro, I never said Go-Onger wasn't goofy. And those are team dynamics, I'm talking about overall show tones.

It's also what we make out of these shows too. One may find a show way goofier than another. I just found Magi to be incredibly goofy the way it presented itself and what direction the show wanted to go into. I'm not going further cause this isn't going to get anywhere.
