Anyway, I watched those August videos posted and downloaded them because they are awesome. Although, for a man that lived in Japan, August can't seem to pronounce Zyuranger correctly. He's an awesome guy though and I'm jealous he got to do something like this.

He is definitely a knowledgeable guy, but I must agree with his pronunciation as it feels lacking. I don't even speak Japanese as a second language, but it's not hard to do "Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger" if you've spent enough time with it. I also didn't care for the excessive translations he did to each individual series he happened to reference. He did seem to break in two things that stood out (video spoilers):

A: Zyuranger was dinosaur-themed in anticipation of Jurassic Park. Not the first time I've heard of a possible connection, but it was regarding the "Saban chose a dinosaur team to capitalize on the renewed dinosaur interest started by Jurassic Park" theory.

B: Very rarely heard of Japanese concern over Sentai content. The censors are notoriously different than they are in the states, but didn't know that similar PR complaints were ALSO Sentai complaints.

Expanded answers to both would be appreciated.

As a whole, I would consider using videos like this to teach someone about Super Sentai if they have serious questions about it. It's not the perfect "two-hour documentary" style we you have thorough, unhinged interviews with hidden details, but it would suffice in a nutshell.
