Some purely because of the supposed Sentai rule every 2nd Sentai series is going to be bad (Go-Buster, Goseiger, Go-Onger, Boukenger, etc...)

With Go-Buster specifically, a lot of people were thrown off by the use of "It's Morphin' Time". They were afraid Sentai was going to turn into Power Rangers, and they instinctively hated it. As the series went on, most people realized it wasn't as bad as they thought, but a lot of people just couldn't get over the negative image they had created based on a few bits of information here and there.

While those people do exist, there's still a lot of hate coming from die-hard Akibaranger fans. If you look in the comments for the higher viewed videos for the openings of both shows, you'll find a lot of debate and people outright defending one show or the other.
