This might seem coincidental given the recent release of Top Gun Maverick, but a thought occurs: did Ohranger take numerous cues from Top Gun OG (especially within the first couple of episodes)? Ohranger definitely comes across as a military show and it makes me wonder if Top Gun OG was popular in Japan back in the day!

I can't speak for Ohranger specifically, but Top Gun was indeed super popular in Japan when it eventually premiered a year after the USA release.

Ohranger I believe was specifically made militaristic as a homage to Goranger for the anniversary (The Boukengers working for a government agency was also for this reason). I could see Top Gun bringing it to mind though

I thought the Boukenger SGS (or is it SRGS?) was specifically mentioned to be a non-governmental agency! They definitely have help and there is a sense that the head honcho is ancient, but it makes more sense for them to be operationally unaffiliated with the government in a direct sense (as government agents might want to use and abuse Precious, which is what the Boukenger agency is trying to prevent).

Has Sempaiger been subbed by anyone?
