It's not, though.

Fan service is not mindless or stupid. Power rangers has deteriorated frighteningly so. It's heartbreaking to me as a long time fan, to see a total lack of innovation or effort for something I loved.

High School of the Dead would argue that. Just saying

The big boss has spoken, cheers boss. Also, I agree with everything you said.

How cool would it have been if they actually filmed a whole scene on Defenders home planet with those rangers in action? I would have been 100 hundred percent okay with the suits then, because it'd be an expansion of the series which would be great in an anniversary season.

I agree that kids tend to like cheesiness sometimes, but the level of dialogue and story seem to me, at least, that the writers are assuming kids are just plain stupid. I don't think kids are ever as simple or unable to cogitate as adults make them out to be. I know when I was a wee lad that I absolutely hated when people talked down to me. Which seems to be what this show is doing.

High School of the Dead supports my statement if anything. I've nevr seen it, but I know enough of it to know where it's fanbase comes from.

Really, it's this kind of lazy ignorance from Saban that reminds me of Transformers Energon. Where they were already working with a boring series, but then the American adaptation was just totally braindead whenever it had to actually adapt certain aspects. It's the same mindless fluff with no real plot or personality or energy.

Honestly, Kamen Rider has kind of ruined PR AND Sentai for me. When I watch Gaim or the like, and see Toku done so well, and then see Sentai and what it's doing, and modern Power Rangers and what IT'S doing, it's like night and day.

Then you watch GARO and it's like WHY IS IT THAT EVERY SERIES I LOVED SEEMS SO RUBBISH ALL OF A SUDDEN WHHHHHHY.

Garo's first season is supposed to be good, right?

The first season is a masterpiece, the second season is fun but what it improves in action it massively breaks in terms of plot and characterisation and then the third season is pretty much disconnected from everything and is a solid season in its own right but pretty awful as a GARO series.

There is also a buttload of movies, none of which I particularly enjoyed.

Another head canon i just thought up for the Dairanger suits, notice how there's a gap in the power rangers continuity because every season takes place in the year it's aired.
That being the case we have a gap in 2009 and 2010, my headcanon is that these suits were from that point.

Why make a headcanon? Why not get mad so Saban doesn't pull this kinda crap again? If you just accept shit like this, Saban is only going to put in less effort next time, and then even LESS effort the time after that, until he literally just films a static toy for thirty minutes with no sound, music, dialogue or motion.
