Thank you! I'm also still quietly enjoying you talking about Blassreiter, even though that unfortunately seems to be less "enthusiasm and passion" and more "disinterest and contempt" at the moment.
I'm basically trying to do a little sampler of the whole franchise, so having no context at all might actually be a really good position to be in. Hopefully, anyway! I'd be extremely flattered if I managed to get someone legitimately interested in a show doing this.

Oh yeah, I always forget about that because it's so insane to me. Like, I get the lineage is a little complex at the start, to the point
Spider-Man
comes up in it, but it's like,
come on
. Granted, back when every show was "___man" instead of "____ranger", it probably seemed easier to believe.

If, in some imaginary scenario necessitating subterfuge, I ever had to give someone a sort of secret phrase to indicate that we are we all above board, I would definitely pick this statement.
Honestly, I can easily imagine a bunch of kids in 1975 roleplaying as cool secret agents after watching Goranger legitimately using that as some kind of password. Anyone who doesn't know Kiranger's favorite food might be a Black Cross spy!

You are almost certainly going to be done with Hurricaneger
long
before I get there, but of course everyone is more than welcome to jump in on the discussion. I mean, this isn't even my thread; I don't make the rules!

The thing that strikes me most about the Gorangers is that I honestly believe
there's legitimately no room for improvement whatsoever
? Like, you say they're the best Sentai designs to this day, and I don't think I could argue even if I wanted to? Literally everything that makes for a good Sentai team was already there from day one. The perfect set of five colors. The perfect balance between each of those colors with accents in the perfect places, like the gloves and boots. The perfect amount of unique details, like the highly distinct visors, keeping each member looking different without sacrificing their perfect unity.
You can do an infinite number of
arrangements
of that – lots of variations in new aesthetics or with additional motifs that make for great character designs in their own right, but I don't think, in nearly half a century of this franchise existing, there has a been
a single team
to come along and contribute something that was adopted as a new fundamental part of the "language", as it were. Because why would they
need
to, right?
