Consider me as one of the few that finds Goseiger to be underrated though a part of it might be to due to how vastly overrated the previous series is and that I ended up watching Goseiger with much better English subtitles than from what I’m stuck with on Shinkenger to the point where I find the former series to be somewhat refreshing right from the start plus there are legitimately good elements to the series especially concerning this show’s sixth ranger that shows up later on and few other things which I really can’t say due to spoilers.

It's always left me a bit confused to hear Goseiger described as bland as someone who hasn't watched it. Because on the one hand I kinda get it, but on the other hand... the movie theming! The multiple villainous factions! The main villain! The characterisation of Alata! Everything I've heard about those seem so standout, and almost like they were crafted to make a Sentai that changed things up a lot. There's so many interesting traits going for it right away that it's hard to imagine how I'd find it being bland or generic when I do watch it

Well I will say that a blog that was giving reasons to watch every Sentai series (even ones the poster didn’t like, such as ToQger and Zyuohger) had a hard time trying anything to say to recommend Goseiger (as he pointed out, the producer quit on them halfway through, the director was too sick to work on many episodes and the characters are already literally angels, which kind of prevents a lot of meaningful flaws for them to overcome), but he did find something in the end (namely, that it arguably does the multiple villain factions thing better than Boukenger and Gingaman).
As for me, I definitely prefer it to Yokote’s other series as the main writer, but I won’t be calling it a personal favourite. It’s a bit of a 7/10 for me. |

I both agree that it is bland and find it underrated lol.
Alata is a character that could have worked but IMO Right seemed like a better executed version. Like its counterpart which I definitely found worse, it is mostly the female characters I remember and a show with 5 members all the way through that's after 1992 can seem a bit like austerity, but it did keep me going through (this is an even more unpopular opinion) the time when W was on and I genuinely didn't like it! It is kind of a bit unmemorable and bland if I'm going to be brutally honest, but bad sentai is still fun and it does have its redeeming features, plus 1999 was also a quiet year in Japanese toku and I'm not the biggest fan of GoGoFive but that seems to have more people that like it! |

Man, when you put it like that, I feel like I should watch Goseiger right now!

Really, if this person had to resort to bringing up production info to begin with, are you sure he wasn't struggling to find reasons NOT to watch Goseiger?

One of the things I like about Goseigers is the multiple villian faction coming right after each other. Episodic Toku shows run the risk of hitting a dry spell in the middle of the show. And this help prevenrs as were given enough time with each group and thier brand villany but not dragging the conflict out too long.

Goseiger to me was the best after Brajira arrived. Prior to that it felt bland and basic for some reason. Post-Brajira was great cause it gave Alata some badass moments along the way. That final Gosei Red vs Brajira I think is up there as one of the greatest fight scenes within the franchise.
The worst crime the show ever did was they Deka Gold'd Gosei Green. I was hoping they would bring him back for at least one episode. and Gosei Great is nice. the way it is divided up is nice and while I could care less about the header gimmicks, the overall design was good.

I don't think you can really class Goseiger as the same villain situation as Boukenger to be honest, the thing with Boukenger is it's a bit more about the four villain groups getting at each other whereas Goseiger is more just one show split into three even though Buredoran is working behind the scenes, I think Chinese toku may have done a similar thing! Personally I think I liked the Matorintis section the best, I thought the middle section could be a bit long although that seems to be a common problem occasionally!
GoseiGreen I personally don't count as a member, I mean he is just a recoloured GoseiBlue suit in one flashback at the end of the day, they could have put a bit more effort into that! |
