Time for Super Sentai teams of similar motifs to duke it out. Which of these titles is the superior one?

For Round 6, we get all of the animal-based teams in a battle royale (including those who only have animals as their secondary motifs):

Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan (1981)


Choujuu Sentai Liveman (1988)


Seijuu Sentai Gingaman (1998)
Primary Motif: Natural Elements


Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger (2001)


Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger (2002)
Primary Motif: Ninjutsu


Jyuken Sentai Gekiranger (2007)
Primary Motif: Eastern Martial Arts


Samurai Sentai Shinkenger (2009)
Primary Motif: Samurai

Let's get ready to rumble!

Gingaman. Hands down, and solely because of my love for Magna Defender.

[Sentai Tamashii]

Boy, this was a toughie, as much as I love Sun Vulcan, I'm gonna have to go with Shinkenger

[ZeoRangerV]

Liveman without a doubt. The only one that really comes close is Gekiranger.

[ljacone]

Oooh, this is tough. For me it comes down to Gaoranger and Gekiranger. Of those two, I have to go with Gaoranger because they really (and I mean really) embraced the animal motif. Gekiranger will always be about martial arts first and animals second.

Gao rao... gao rao... GAORANGER!

[Sunred]

Gaoranger definitely wins this one. I must disagree with Shinkenger being part of this though. The reason is because despite the Origamis being in the shape of animals Shinkenger is more of a elemental motif (Fire, Water, Sky, Wood, Land, Light) overall. Just my 2 cents so feel free to disagree.

I think you're right. Their powers are elemental, not animalistic. Especailly when you consider Gold's later in the series is a mechanical paper lantern.

Gaoranger. Cause Wild Force is awesome and mostly the same thing. XP

He's got a lobster and a squid too...

[Matrixbeast]

I think Go-Onger would be a better fit than Shinkenger here.
Having animal mechs =/= an animal theme. At least Go-Onger has the animal themes in their suit designs as well...

Anyway, Gao.
