Restoring traditional eye-catch during commercial breaks (no more Fiveman, Gokaiger, Go-busters, Toqger, Ninninger style)
Restoring -man suffix to the sentai name. You can be serious, show maturity and respect to the audience without compromising the fact that is a kids show. No more silly generic -ger, its like what they do now is just copy and paste whatever idea came from a brainstorming session during september-october.
Brace transforming device along with a sober but classy computer 3d grid transformation sequence.
Showing the villains during the ending credits.
More importantly, No more magic, mystic, supernatural, nature or anything along those lines.
Bring back Earth-based technology! Is it Bandai and Toei began to lose confidence in human intellect?. Come on guys!, this is how sentai history began! and is more fitting for an anniversary plus makes the children to easily relate the character to something in the real world and the plethora of weapons, vehicles, communication devices is more diverse and easy to adapt.
A direct consequence of what was said above, a proper Team blaster which actually resembles a gun but not a toy. If its a team cannon it has to give the impression that it can inflict a serious damage when fired, plus a proper animation that goes with it, like an explosion as it was in the old days, not ridiculous objects being thrown to the villain or monster in a clearly deus ex machina way.
And finally but not least, cast better and mature looking actors. I dont have anything against young individuals, but what we have getting today are mostly young faces which dont look very 'heroic physique'. I say more live training sequences and the use of sidearms, we want to see real scenario combat experience.

Maybe i have over extended a bit, but that's what i think. You can agree or disagree, i just hope not be the one who's getting throw tomatoes and the end of this post.

You aren't. You're just sharing your opinion, and while that is a good idea, I hardly think they'd do that for the 40th anniversary. After all, the past 15 years since Gaoranger have gone with a certain pattern for seasons, and while that would be good for a later season, it probably won't be that. Why fix what isn't broken?

As for the ideas, I don't think they'd go over that well with the audience in Japan these days. Most of those ideas (most, not all) were used in Go-Busters, and we all know what a bust that season was. We may have liked it, but Japan sure didn't. It tried be like the classic Sentai, but its ratings and toy sales bombed. Badly.

I'm not trying to derail your ideas. I'm simply saying they wouldn't work for an anniversary season, especially with the trend they've been going with since Hurricanger. I could see them bringing back eyecatches, but kids like all that magic, supernatural, outer space stuff. Again, not saying it isn't a good idea. I'm simply saying it's just not a good idea for a 40th anniversary.
