That had nothing on the tomfoolery that went on with the ThunderMegazord and "Dragozord". Qilins are basically Chinese Unicorns, so let's call that horned horse a Griffon and the Tenma, which looks exactly like a Pegasus that every child knows of the Unicorn, despite having no horn, which is the most notable part of being a Unicorn. And the Dragozord. So they call the Pteranodon a "Pterodactyl" despite the fact that every kid ever loved dinosaurs back then and could notice the mistake and that the Sentai named it correctly so it wasn't because they wanted accurate translations, but when we DO get a Pterodactyl, we rename it "Drago", despite clearly not being a dragon and being in a series of dinosaurs. Ugh. I can understand wanting to simplify it from Tupuxaura because not many kids would know what that is, but if Pterodactyls are such a good name that they can call things that aren't them Pterodactyls, why not call the actual Pterodactyl "Pterodactyl", "Ptera" or "Dactyl" or anything but "Drago"? Ugh.

/rant over.
