I truly hope the people who hate it so much not only stop watching but stop posting. I get it. My 6 year old loves it. He doesn't care about where they get their powers he just thinks it's cool seeing the action and I got to agree. It is cool. I love Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger but see nothing wrong with this show. Different audiences and different cultures for each show no natter how much material they share they are different shows for different people. There are fans like us that cross over both groups but don't waste your time shitting on the show if it's not for you. Change the channel and move on.

But for a show supposedly billed as the huge 20th Anniversary thing that it is, it continues to fall short. Consistently. In every single way this show lacks respect and acknowledgement for the fans it was supposedly crafted for. Yes it's intended for children, but if that's the case why did Saban spend a year with the hype machine trying to get Power Ranger fans to believe that it was some awesome tribute to the franchise when clearly it isn't? It's a shoddily edited and poorly plotted show.

I'm not even a Power Rangers fan. I'm trying to look at this objectively as a third party and well, I've already said this better once before:

That being said there seems to be a pretty apparent willingness to ignore blatant editing issues, dialogue and sound effect inconsistencies, and the general lack of a decent plot in this show by ranger fans. It seems people are ready and willing to accept a subpar product, what this episode was, simply because of the spectacle of it being a new Power Rangers series.

And unfortunately Saban will continue to produce this kind of substandard series as long as people are willing to except such a thing.
