Which is your favorite monster design? Which series do you think has the overall best monster designs? Which has the worst?
edit: By monster I'm referring to the monster of the week featured in each episode of a series, but main villains can count too.

...and I totally forgot to include my picks. Anyways...
I'm partial to Zyuranger's monster designs. I love the influence from classical mythology, and the suits looked a bit more modern and detailed than even a few of the series after it. The best suit of all time, however, is obviously...

I'm gonna sound like more of a fanboy, but...Gekiranger's
Every time I think of other monster designs, characters like 5 Deadly Venoms, Maki, or Long immediately come to mind. I love the RinRinShi, and their evolved monster forms are amazing to look at. They're easily my favorite.

Mine are probably Gekiranger as well. The animal forms look cool and provide good variety, and they're believably intimidating and service the show's gimmick pretty well. Second favorite is probably Shinkenger, since they do a very cool thing of combining river-dwelling crustaceans with Japanese youkai, heh.
I don't dig Jetman/Dairanger/Ninninger thing of anthropomorphizing random objects. Or at least I don't anymore. I mean, you've seen forty of those, you've seen enough.

Are we talking about Monsters of the Week or just in general? I think my favorite is a toss up between the Saima Clan and the Dora Monsters. If we are just talking about the main villain's themselves though, then it would definitely be the Saima Clan.

I was referring to monster of the week, but we can talk about villains too.

I chose Kyoryuger because of the detail in its monster designs. Detailed that in some cases I didn't think it was necessary because the average viewer wouldn't notice it. Like the dangling bones on the robe of the Bone Collector, the caged prisoners in the cells of Slammer and the amount of teeth engulfing Tenacious D's face and the dangling pieces of diamonds from his chin.
Ice Age's design I like because his shoulders are icebergs in the middle of the sea with smaller icebergs surrounding the large one. The sea monster having boats as feet was creative so he was also a good design. |
