Suzu, we're just having fun with puns. Is it probably just a coincidence that the "Jyuden" Sentai transform using "Denjyu?" Yes. But it's a fun one. So please, join us in the land of fun.

(But also... come on, if you think this is different than Toei's other puns you're going to have to come up with a better argument than "it only works when you say it out loud." Cause... that is how most puns work. Especially when the pun is found in the title of a show made for Japanese toddlers who probably can't even read hiragana yet, let alone kanji.)

Besides, Toei's puns are usually more... awkward sounding, like with Hurricaneger and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone.

Um... just because Kyoryuger and Juuouger might on the off chance have used "Jyuu" as a pun doesn't mean that every instance of the franchise using "jyuu" must be a pun.

I've only seen the first three episodes Hurricanger because it's not subbed -- but are there a lot of Harry Potter references in it? If so, that's adorable and makes me want to watch it right away.
