You're misreading the thread - no one has said its widely hated. In fact it's the opposite - it's really popular but some people (myself included) don't see what the fuss is about.

Simply not true.

Or just the first 5 eps or something. At least not enough to judge the show as a whole.

I really dislike Dairanger. I do not hate it, but I didn't enjoy it either. I didn't like the writing and characters, but it seems to be surprisingly popular...

Also, though I do like Gokaiger, I easily get annoyed by people hyping it so much. It was great to have all the cameos, but the Gokaigers themselves had to suffer a lot because of all the changes in the script that were made to add the old characters. Besides, Marvelous was a nice character and I really like him, but imho, he wasn't the amazing badass Red everyone says he was.

Go-Onger was pretty cool, haven't seen it in two years though.

Timeranger. It was my first super sentai series, but most people tend to give more focus on Shinkenger, Dairanger, and Dekaranger imo. Even though Timeranger didn't have the best mecha, I liked it because it took the time to develop the characters through fillers that made me grow to care about them. Timeranger even got me to feel pity for how Gien came to be!

I don't think anyone hates Timeranger, though...

Even though I had only watched through Zyuranger at the time, the first few episodes of Dairanger made me not want to watch super sentai anymore. I'll probably try re-visiting it at some point, since the suits and mecha are some of my favorite designs in all of Sentai.

I have to agree. I've never met anybody who said they hated or even disliked Timeranger.

I hate Eric.

Yes we now. Eric is TF though, not TR ^^
