As somebody who has absolutely no nostalgia for MMPR or Zyuranger, Its not hard to see why Daizyujin, or its MMPR equivalent, is so popular besides simply being the first Mecha/Megazord for many people. I think the biggest strength of Zyuranger's mecha is how cohesive they are compared to many of the mecha that came before it. Save for the two different colored legs, nothing about Daizyujin or Gouryujin says that its 5 or 6 different robots stuck together. Something I also noticed about Daizyujin is that, like many mecha before it, its kind of boxy. Unlike those though, where this boxyness was silly at best or ugly and dated at worst, the boxyness here is extremely natural and goes really well with the overall design of the robot.
