Back when ratings matter as well as ad commercial spon in between the show. Now, is gimmick after gimmick collect them all collectibles. I think the villain actor from liveman, jetman, and dairanger once said hurricanger gone kiddy, but now we're watching the cast role play demo the toy especially ryusoulken pulling. Kiramager is an exception with how simple things are. Maybe too simple even for the villains.

Zenkaiger might be a risky test for toei to retool super sentai in genral while keeping the same name and using anniversary as an excuse to get more eyeballs to be graps by initial shock, so they'll tune in. They failed trying to reboot gavan and kikaider. Now, sentai isn't in the best state compared to cheaper made animate toys sales. Likewise, 2021 saber is like ryusoulger if they had their village base. Zenkaiser looks like classic riders with one man carrying the show.

You mean the guy who played Jin in Dairanger? When was this said?
