Hikari Senshi has subbed it. Not the best group, but they at least translate everything.

And Sun Vulcan as a whole is just boring. It's not terrible, just boring.

Just like Dairanger

Sun Vulcan's popularity is obviously based on the awesome theme song. It is the best Showa Sentai theme. I can't defend the show outside of that! FOLLOW THE SUN! CATCH THE SUN!

Have I mentioned I like Toshiki Inoue? He's far pass his prime, but his best works are among the best of Super Sentai and Kamen Rider.

Despite us differing greatly in opinion on Akibaranger, I also find Dairanger to be about as interesting as a jar of mayonnaise.

Hikari Senshi have done two different scripts for Gekiranger - one that translates everything (to the point its called Beast Fist Fighters Wildranger), and one that keeps all the nouns and things in Japanese. To my knowledge they tried to translate the Jan stuff in the latter one, but I can't comment on how good it is because I've never watched it.

Also, throw me into the Dairanger was kind of boring camp. It wasn't awful like Sun Vulcan, but its not the godly series people make it out to be.

Yeah, Jetman and Agito are great. But he also wrote Faiz, Kiva, the bastardized ending of Hibiki, The First and The Next, and that part of Movie War Core. For me he's well worn out any good will I had for him.

If you consider DaiRanger boring, you must find nearly every Sentai boring since Dai is light years better than every other Sentai out there. The only thing that comes close to it is KakuRanger.

Anyway, I cannot comment on SunVulcan, but if you want to see boring, watch Dynaman.

Dairanger is not the gold standard for sentai dude. It's an okay show with great designs, it's not a masterpiece. Everything is not held to a bar that it set. There are plenty of sentai more fun and interesting than that show.

I completely disagree on that. It IS a masterpiece. The action is incredible. The mythology is interesting and unique. The villains are awesome (not the best, the Saima Clan are the best), but the Monsters of the Week are some of the best designs in the entire series. It has the best mecha and I think the best special effects out of any Sentai series. RyuuSeiOu alone out does everything in the effects department for Sentai. The music is great, the fight scenes are among the best (especially those between Ryo and Jin), and the story is so amazing. The only thing I can complain about the show is not enough development for Kazu, but he is by far the best yellow ranger ever. And the episodes he does have, he truly shines in them, especially against the drunken tofu monster.

Like I said, KakuRanger is the only other show that comes close to matching Dai, but nothing else has done so for me, even shows like Car, Aba, and Geki.
