I think it's so beloved because of how well it holds up, not just because of its historical significance, like what we see from the nostalgia goggled MMPR fanboys.

Were we watching the same show? It had a protagonist who had no character growth in fifty episodes. It had a tone so gratuitously sadistic it was only as fun as getting cancer. The special effects, and general fight scenes, were just terrible bar for about six battles, in the entire fifty episode run of the series. The pacing was awful in how unfocused it all was, and choosing to leave the Grongi speaking entirely in jibberish with no clue what they were talking about was a terrible decision, as it wasn't mysterious you just never had a clue what was going on.
