Ninninger. Merch under-performed, a waste of great art direction(the one thing I will defend about the show), and I lost interest in the narrative along the way sadly.

LuPat. It's a close call between Ninninger and that, but at least Ninninger had some individual episodes where I could kinda enjoy myself, (plus Starninja is wasted in the show), while LuPat just grated. Out of 7 rangers, I like 2. The Lupins constantly coming out on top when Kairi is a jerk and Touma is a brick smarts, and I could do without Green's weird niceguy vibes towards Umika. And Noel is the worst sixth/seventh/lets-just-say-fourth-since-he-favours-the-Lupins-just-like-the-merch-did ranger I've ever seen. Add to that plot hooks that meander for months at a time, or just go nowhere, bad mech designs, boring villains yet again (except, ironically, for the Big Boss himself; Dogranio as a retiring mobster who just wants to find a replacement is a neat idea), and the ending of the show...
I didn't like it much.

Much as I despise Kyoryuger, it is far from the worst so I cannot say it is.
If I wanna go for something other than Ninninger.... Well prepare for the most controversial opinion: Zyuohger. My primary distaste comes from the designs. None of it is attractive. The show is extremely Red-focused which is saved only because Yamato is one ofnthe best reds, but still, the other Zyuohgers are one of the worst 'cheerleader'-type of Rangers when it comes to Red-centric Rangers. It doesn't help that the plot goes nowehere most ofnthe time, this is also found on LuPat, since they share the same writer. And Mondo. My god he is imo the worst 6th Ranger of all time. I get what they're trying to do with him: a socially awkward person who just wants to make friends but also has a very low self-esteem. On paper that is a brilliant idea, because he can be extremely relatable, but nope. They turned him into a joke. Into an annoying joke. It doesn't help that his actor doesn't really know how to portray him well, making Zyuoh the World, despite on paper looks like a one hell of a cool 6th Ranger, ends up being the weakest. Hell even his weapon is just lame looking. Idk maybe one day I will rewatch it, because I love the Deathgalien designs, but I really dislike Zyuohger.

As someone who has no real interest in SUper Sentai, what I'm gathering from this thread is that the recent seasons have been rather weak though I can't help but wonder if that's because they just might be the most recent entries compared to others so they just stick out more

I personally can't stand Carranger because I find the humor to be obnoxious to sit through. I know the show is for kids, but the humor does get old very quick. Go-longer was also similar to how annoying the show can be at times.
I haven't seen Turboranger, so I hope that car theme show will be good. RPM is a rare example of a PR show being better than the original source material in my opinion. However, that's not a very high bar though in my opinion.

Nearly every post in this thread is like a needle in my heart.

I mean, I only have opinions on stuff from Shinken - LuPat, and other people might be similar, so it's less "maybe old seasons were better" and more "less people have seen old seasons".

Pretty much they let the head writer of Carranger to do whatever the hell he want with Carranger. Any tragic events like 1995 Terrorist Attack and especially 2011 Tokyo Earthquake leads to more lighthearted shows like Carranger and Fourze. (I have a feeling that next rider show after Zero-One is going to be more lighthearted due to Coronavirus Pandemic) |
