My favorite ranger! Actually, I always thought White Ranger from MMPR is way too awesome than Kibaranger from Dairanger.

Kou wins for being an actually developed character with an actual storyline and a surprisingly successful and respectable child character, imo.

Also I can't stand Jason David Frank.

I dunno whether developed is the right word, I'm over half way through Dairanger now and outside of his introductory arc, he's done nothing. But then none of the Dairanger's are particularly developed. Kou is a good character nonetheless though, better than the White Ranger, nostalgia or not.

^This. I loved White Ranger. Though it just added to the Saban is racist theory (Asian Girl? Yellow Ranger! Black Guy that fights by Breakdancing? Black Ranger! Popular White Guy? White Ranger!)

Kou is the better character story-wise no doubt, but has he had more impact on my tastes and hobbies? No way.

It's true, innit? I may hate MMPR, but it's like engrained...into my soul. I wouldn't be here today, if it wasn't for the likes of MMPR and even the likes of Masked Rider, Bettleborgs, VR Troopers and Knights of Tir Na Nog that all came out in my early childhood.

Exactly. I know who Kibaranger and appreciate him but that suit is always just going to be the guy I used to dress up as a kid and practically idolised. No source material is ever going to change that.

The Figure looks good and the packaging looks pretty fun like its Dairanger counterpart.

But alas I don't think I'll be able to buy him online anytime soon. Unless if its in a normal comic store though. ;-;

And considering they are two entirely separate franchises, you have no obligation to recognise the sentai at all anyway. No matter what the sentai fandom may claim at times.
