I used to think that way too. But Gaoranger is an entirely different beast (pun!) than Wild Force. I don't see the environmentalism front and center on that show. There's the aspect of protecting the Earth but it doesn't even feel like environmentalism to me.

Much like how I feel about Wild Force, it isn't bad by any means. But at the same time outside of Rouki and the mecha I didn't think it was particularly good either. It was just...there.

It's just really struck me as a well done show. Lots of great action and designs, fantastic and interesting villains (for the most part). Some really stellar mecha design. The overall plot just knocks it out of the park though. My only complaint might be the VS movie. Aside from appearances by some of my favorite senshi (Big One, Red Falcon) and a few other cool moments it was pretty silly.

I'd say this show will be in my top 5 by the time I've finished it. It's just been such a solid fun ride so far. Even during the filler episodes this show does well. Those typical episodes that with most shows are just boring and hard to enjoy. This show manages to change things up a bit and actually make them enjoyable.
