[FreshToku]

I mean it sounds like most of you just want Sentai to be more like Rider, and like, I get that because not only do I like Rider more too, but the latter is clearly the product that Toei pushes more to have an appeal to all age groups.

That's exactly why I don't expect that to happen though. As of now, Sentai still fills a specific niche. Featuring a team of colourful heroes and their (many) giant robots, that niche just happens to inevitably shrink more and more with time.

So the shows really don't have any reason ever to be particularly ambitious (and while I'm sure it's just a coincidence, the shows being ambitious in it's writing has never helped sales anyway. Look at Gekiranger and Go-Busters). Though personally, I've not really great desire for Sentai to change it's ways. It is what it is, and I've stuck around it because of what it is. If I wanted something more serialised or different, well... I would just tune into a different show. Which I can do because it also airs every week.
