So I decided to try Kakuranger again. A bit of backstory: I started Sentai with Zyuranger a couple of years ago, and all of the Power Rangers nostalgia practically smacked me in the face. I absolutely loved it. After finishing Zyuranger, I tried watching both Dairanger and Kakuranger. I hated Dairanger, and was bored of Kakuranger. Why? At the time, all I wanted was more Zyuranger.

Anyways, I don't really know what it is. I think between being stuck on Zyuranger for so long, seeing newer Sentai and how bland and formulaic they can be, and getting into Kamen Rider, my interest in Sentai basically dropped down to zero. Well, I've found myself in the mood for some old school toku, and after visiting Japan this summer and seeing a ton of temples and shrines, I've also been wanting to watch something themed around traditional Japanese culture and mythology. On top of that, the anime Ushio and Tora made me want more youkai action. So I decided to give Kakuranger another chance, and let me tell you, I already absolutely love it. Now that I'm not expecting another Zyuranger, like when I first tried watching it, it's easy to appreciate what this series is and what makes it unique. I've missed old school sentai, and this is a great return to it. I can't wait to watch more.
