This show had an major impact on my life before I even knew what Super Sentai was. I grew up with it's American adaptation, Power Rangers Jungle Fury. That show left such a mark that I decided to take martial arts, and spent 8 years of my life doing it. And as a kid, I got so much from that, to the point where it shaped who I became. However as I kept learning, I forgot what made me want to learn in the first place. It's been many years since then, and now, as adult, after watching this show, I truly understand why, feeling like things have come full circle in a way. This is a top tier Sentai for me. Honestly, I can't decide if this or Dairanger is a better martial arts themed Sentai. No way Maskman can be that good. I would love to see them do another martial arts themed season, considering they've done 4 dinosaur themed seasons. Before u ask the question, there were a lot of amazing episodes, however for me it was Lesson 40. Leo is one of the best villains I've ever seen. I'll never say no to a good rivalry between a hero and villain, and his with Jan was certainly incredible. But that twist, I feel brought it to another level. Especially with that cameo, I had no idea and was in complete shock about that. While I Jan does qualify as a "annoying hot head brash" Red Ranger, I did find him that at first, but he grew on me. For a kids show that came out 15 years ago, seeing a hero dealing with something like anxiety is something that caught me by surprise and I wish Toku did more often. Especially how much things like that are taken more seriously nowadays. All the other characters were great as well, though I consider Gou to be a total badass. Also, that crossover film. Boukenger was another season I loved, and ironically enough I also grew up with it's American adaptation, Operation Overdrive. If 5 year old me had seen that, he probably would've lost his shit. Still don't understand why Disney didn't do it. Regardless, I can't wait for Shout! Factory to bring this to DVD.

I looooove Gekiranger! There is so much about this series that works, it has a very strong mythos and incorporates life lessons into the training the Rangers go through and each one is distinct in personality and style, and I love how they don't initially get a long because of their different personalities. I love how the grunts have the ability to become the monster of the week, that was cool. And of course, Leo and Mele, a villain couple that become antiheroes, and of course.... Long, the true villain of the piece. I love how Machiavellian Long is, literally playing the 'long game' in terms of manipulation and playing with people just to ease his boredom due to his immortal nature. Incredible stuff. The team ups with Boukenger and GoOnger are awesome!

Great review of a great series! Is Gekiviolet's style violent qi or excitement? I watched this series on Kissasian, and their subtitles are a bit off, as both subbed English terms are pronounced the same way in Japanese (Shigeki). On that same note, I thought the true spelling/pronunciation of the antagonist was Black Lion RIO (not Leo). One last question: Is there any chance you'd be willing to do a review of Boukenger?
@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork

From my understanding, Toei's official English name, at least as of right now, is Leo. I guess there won't be an official one until Shout! Factory were to release this show on video. Nevertheless, the subtitles I used for this review had it as Leo, so that is what I went with as I try to use whichever way it was on the versions I watched. I will review Boukenger at some point, but I will be doing Aba-Bouken in release order and I'm going to give Shout! until early 2020 to see if they announce any new Sentai releases before I stick Aba into a review queue.

I like the villains of Magi, but not the ranger cast. I dislike Dearanger due to it not having any actual plot, a main leader villain, and Ban. Oh do I hate Ban. Until Lucky, Ban was the worst red ranger of all time in my eyes. And until Lucky, Daigo from Kyoryu was my second least favorite red. Boukenger had a lot of great ideas, but pretty much squandered them by being an auxiliary mech show of the week. I couldn't even make it past episode 10 of Goseiger all three times I tried watching it. I have mixed feelings on Go-Busters as I give it props for trying something new, but it came off as down right boring and the cast looked like they had just woken up half the time (like the commander). Kyuuranger though... oh god, talk about a total waste of potential. They had the concept to make it be one of the greatest Sentai shows of all time and they screwed it up by hardly developing any of their rangers, Lucky was the most invincible red ranger ever and could do whatever he wanted, the villains were the equivalent of wallpaper, and too much of the plot focused on Earth.

Ok so Gekiranger. This was a show I was told about by a friend from my church who was a big Tokusatsu Fan so I eventually decided to check it out at last. I am so baffled as to how this show failed. I really don't get it at all. Now I have to agree with you here that Ran has the weakest reason to why she is the leader compared to our other three non red ranger leaders in Sentai. Compared to Tsurahime who if feel is the strongest with Yuri being second and Keiirchio being third. Honestly I felt Retsu should have been the leader because he has a bit of a stronger reason to lead the team. I can really see why Rio is the way he is and it's pretty messed up his whole motivation was an entire lie and it makes you feel sorry for the guy. Though my favorite character ended up being Gou. Now does this season make me say "I like it more than Jungle Fury or even hate Jungle Fury? No it doesn't. Gekiranger made me appreciate that Power Rangers season more. I applaud this season for using more Chinese mythology and it even reminded me of my youth I used to watch old Hong Kong Kung Fu movies back then.

Gekiranger is a great show that not some people don't bring it up but tbf there's a few Sentai shows that are really underrated but that's just me Also Gekiranger was originally going to be called Chugokuger and it was going to be something similar to Dairanger and have it focus on the Chinese Zodiacs

@@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork well here is the description for the upcoming next episode. "As a Kirameiger, they have just received their newest power up, and things are going well. However, as an athlete, Sena's track record is beginning to drop as she starts to fall into a slump. In order to help Sena train, the famous fitness center known as SCRTC joins up with her to monitor her training with her sponsored gear. SCRTC, which was formerly known to support the legendary heroes known as the Gekirangers, now joins up with CARAT that functions as similar support for the Kirameigers. Not just Sena, but the other Kirameigers are frequently supported by these kinds of reliable companies. Sena starts to train just when the voice of her gear suddenly changes and starts to speak out "If you stop running at a speed of at least 15 km/hour this gear will explode!" Not to mention, another Jamen Monster appears in the city, as everyone except Sena rushes towards it to confront the threat." What do you think.
