I've been slowly marathoning Sun Vulcan at my pace (episode 33 at the moment), and I'm enjoying it very much in a vintage sort of way. I still feel that Misa should have been a female member and it's a shame that Vul Eagle got replaced, but otherwise I have no complaints. ^^

Capt Planet and JB Jr were great shows, so I guess Boukenger could creep its way into my sentai top 10

But seriously, I give every season a chance through the first half of the show

The reason I brought those two shows up is because of the villain syndicate concept. It is a rarity in sentai and aside from the ones we saw on the show there were more that were only on record. That was really what sold me when it came out.

Yeah I am only on Task 8 and they are fighting technically 3 different sets of villains. I don't think I have ever seen that this early in a season before

And it doesn't do much good to the plot either.

Was holding it off in hopes of it getting subbed, but the discovery of a set of raw DVDs of the show has made me eager to now finally get around to watching GoGoV, starting with the few subbed episodes until I buy the set. I have to say I'm loving the hell out the show so far. I love how the whole episode is usually devoted to the team having to deal with the emergency with the monster fight being closer towards the end. I'm also really digging how much the family works off each other and how they are as a whole. The music is great, action is awesome, and overall I'm finding a lot of enjoyment in the show so far.

Watch out Hurricanger, you may end up being dethroned.

Just finished the first episode of Jetman. After I finished Zyuranger (the first Sentai I watched) I haven't found one that clicked with me quite as well as that one did. However, I think I found exactly what i've been looking for here. So far, everything feels just right. Normally, I make it 5-ish episodes into a series before losing interest, but I might actually see this one through.

I'm surprised it took me this long to actually give Jetman a chance.
