the main question you gotta ask for when you come up with a Sentai motiff nowadays:
can you make a toy out of it?

Does anyone think there should be a female red ranger for the main five?
I personally say no because seeing how kaero was as red and by going off a statistic that says women are more emotional than men, I think a female red would bring too much drama to a sentai series. Not being sexist it's just my opinion. Even if they kept the same trope but had a female Red instead it would be a breath of fresh air.

Just for once I wish they would have other characters that become stronger. Maybe blue or black/green. Or even one of the females. And no I'm not forgetting at MegaRanger let the others use the "Battlizer" bracelet.

Women can be more emotional than men, that doesn't mean though that they'll constantly start drama or will be more emotional. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. Sometimes they will, sometimes they won't. Besides, Sentai has always had drama in it, and it can get out of hand at times. Look at Jetman, it borders on being a soap opera half the time.

Of course there can be a female red - and there should be. Currently Super Sentai seems to run on the same tropes series after series - over-enthusiastic male Red character that ends up being the strongest and most powerful of the entire team with a story line that somehow ends up revolving around him.
I think this is also why the red rangers represent their show, even if they're not the leader (in Gekiranger, Ran was the leader and in Kakuranger Tsuruhime, but Jan and Sasuke represent the team)- they're the main characters. |

1. Incredibly strong. He puts everyone else on the team to shame, even the ones who've had more training and experience. 2. Really brave, he'll keep fighting no matter what! 3. Energetic. He just can't stop getting fired up about things. 3. Stupid. More so than even Right. His main characteristic is literally that he possesses zero common sense or intelligence. Bonus: Terrible acting. This one's actually unique to him and not so much a character trait, but his actor is distractingly bad in almost every scene he appears (which of course is most of them). The Fourze style "I'm getting fiiiired up!" thing is especially cringe inducing. |

And thinking a woman would break down when things got tough is extremely sexist; its your opinion, but it is a sexist opinion. My wife is a soldier and has been in a ton of really tough and stressful situations and she hasn't broken down once and I know a ton of other women that are exactly the same way (even Japanese women), so that idea is sexist and stupid. |

I'm not sure why, he's just a continuation of the same traits we've had the past few seasons.
1. Incredibly strong. He puts everyone else on the team to shame, even the ones who've had more training and experience. 2. Really brave, he'll keep fighting no matter what! 3. Energetic. He just can't stop getting fired up about things. 3. Stupid. More so than even Right. His main characteristic is literally that he possesses zero common sense or intelligence. 1. kids want to believe they actually are strong, so they like to put themselves in the shoes of strong heroes. 2. kids want to be brave. so, a brave hero for them too look up to can allow them to gain that same courage. 3. kids are full of energy, so having an energetic character is a major factor for them to relate to the hero. 4. kids aren't the brightest, and they're bound to make some mistakes in life, so again, makes them more relatable. even if Red isn't essentially the leader, more often than not, they're the one who wants to keep the team together. they're also the title character. I mean, red is the center of their flag.

A female red would be cool. It would just be nice to shake things up a bit, especially when the leader personalities are getting so formulaic recently. Maybe have her be a more serious type with an arc based on lightening up or a "team mum" type with heavy emphasis on the "holds the team together" thing. It would also probably be a cool move for the girls who watch the show.
