I saw it with my partner and partly my brother and I thought it was OK, while my partner thought it was amazing (he's a big MMPR fan though, so that might've contributed) and my brother hated it. The characters are decent enough, although Geki and Burai are significantly more memorable then the other rangers while Witch Bandora is the real star of the show character-wise and Burai's villain arc is by far the highlight of the show story-wise. The show is also all about fantasy and legend, which is a big difference to MMPR's emphasis on Sci-Fi. It's got it's problems though; nearly every episode outside of Burai's first arc revolves around a child with a problem they help solve, which I didn't mind too much but my brother found so intolerable he stopped watching with us and the episodes range from excellent to sometimes boring. It's a very light-hearted and goofy show (ignoring Burai's arcs and the final few eps) and is extremely different from Jetman that preceded it, but I absolutely love Bandora though, although Rita Repulsa actually channels her character quite well. The mecha and costumes are also some of the best ever in my opinion too, but you get them in MMPR too.

tl/dr: I think its worth a try, especially considering what it began, although it is by no means perfect.

Heh, that's what I thought too. The other rangers are pretty darn generic and, like I said, my brother hated the "kid of the week" theme so much he stopped watching, so it's definitely a bit of a mixed opinion on wether its good or not.
