As someone watching the show right now, who remembers it and doesn't violently hate it, let me assure you, it is
not
the same. There's an entire episode halfway through the show devoted to finding out the Grongi are playing a game. They start talking about Daguva well before the heroes do. Their motivations and the reasons behind actions the heroes spend so much time figuring out suddenly leave nothing to the imagination. It's not just about the random flavor dialogue in fight scenes that does usually just go "die, Kuuga". That's only a small part of it.
The DVD's and the reruns with the subtitles were aimed at people who had already seen Kuuga. It was a bonus to get them excited about checking out the massively popular and successful show they'd already seen once again. The Grongi are speaking a foreign language. That's how the series was written. You wanna talk the perspective of new fans getting into the franchise? Imagine someone not even realizing the Grongi weren't speaking Japanese until well into the show, and tell me this isn't an issue at least worth debating.
I don't personally care that much if someone wants to watch the show that way first myself. At the end of the day it's their choice. But acting like it makes no difference at all is just a gross oversimplification.
