But because it has the aforementioned, that's the excuse that it's "acceptable." At the end of the day, they're both kids shows, with rainbow colored, tightly worn spandex that fight rubber monsters.

Yeah, this.

I don't know why, but apparently liking the things you like is cause for insecurity, but it's totally okay to like Super Sentai because it's like Power Rangers only with like corn syrup and food colouring on their face when they demorph!

Edgy! Cool! Gritty! Mature!

Although it may have it on some seasons, it isn't as clear cut as the Sentai is always more mature and it always has more depth, it's just elitist overhyping. There are things you can't add to children's programming here that Japan is okay with, no one takes that into account it seems on the elitist bench, they just spit the words 'watered down', not even thinking about how the show has been localised to an entirely different culture and set of rules.

Bleh.
