Plus as Japan, uh, runs out of kids, they might have to start changing sentai a little bit and cater a bit more to older or lapsed fans more familiar with the tropes. Perfect breeding ground for a parody series right there.

I would say Donbrothers is a deconstruction of a Sentai series. They took all the stuff you would expect to see in a Sentai and just did not do it, or delayed doing it. I guess that?s kind of like a parody though?

Zenkaiger is more of a comedy, while Donbrothers is more of a deconstruction, like you said. A parody is when they do what is in the original, but at the same time show why it is stupid. For example: "Why can't you use an army of rangers and do you really need a giant robot to fight a giant monster?". Or you can make fun of something else, but in the form of a show about Sentai. For example, for Sentai to fight unfair employers and high taxes in the style of Don Quixote.
