Each season is short, being around 12 to 13 episodes, and is obviously lower budget than your standard toku affair, but if the first episode is anything to go by, it's a ton of fun all the same.
Also, the main director is a former assistant director on Super Sentai (who also holds the privilege of being the only female director for a major Tokusatsu production)

And that description of
Ultraman Ginga
actually intrigues me, and makes me even more curious as to why it's not cited as a jumping on point for the franchise, given is revived the franchise it comes from and all.
It did the job for me. Ginga was my introduction to the franchise.
As for Dogengers, I don?t have much to say on the first two seasons, since I?ve only seen High School (which was mostly for MagiPink, Mega Yellow and Alternative Zero being part of the supporting cast, but I ended up having a good time), so I may not have much to say for this thread.
