again,... your super sentai favorite poll - 02-05-2011, 02:35 AM

it's another turnover for super sentai show. for its 35th sentai, we got a new pirate theme. so I wondering what is everyone favorite. here list of super sentai, and here a small blog post that can refresh some of mind.

for those not familiar with Super Sentai, it is the source for Power Ranger, every year the Japanese channel produce the series/franchise and then US tv channel (I think it's Saban company) converted the franchise into US version. It got different feel, so please not mixed up.

btw, of 34 titles, I only manage to compiled nine of them in the poll and one OTHERS, so please pardon this selection

I didn't repsond because I had no idea what the 'sentai' were . . . I just clicked on your thread for curiousity's sake and just realised it was the basis for the 'Power Rangers'.

I just wondered if perhaps you Westernised the names on your poll/thread, to that of the Western equiviliants of the 'sentai', if you would perhaps get more responses? It's just when Power Rangers/Sentai came out I was a kid, and I think most people who watched the show would have been children too, and so I wonder how likely it is that a western child watching a western show would know the Japanese counterpart or its name. To be honest I had no idea it even was based on a Japanese show until recently.

I'm not saying the Western equivilant is superior, just that by westernising the discussion you might get a few more replies, because more people will have an understanding.

well, seem like my "worry" is correct, the board is majority by non sentai member, eg. western. it's ok, I think this thread can be for general sentai/p.r. talk. Here what I try to answer your inquiry, the Power ranger tradition started on sentai title "Zyuranger". I edit this from wikipedia :

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 93-95 used footage, costumes, and props from three of the Super Sentai Series: Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger for season 1, Gosei Sentai Dairanger for season 2, and Ninja Sentai Kakuranger for season 3
Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers 96 - Kakuranger
Power Rangers Zeo 1996 - Ohranger.
Power Rangers Turbo 1997 - Carranger
Power Rangers in Space 1998 - Megaranger.
Power Rangers Lost Galaxy 1999 - Gingaman.
Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue 2000 - GoGoFive.
Power Rangers Time Force 2001 - Timeranger.
Power Rangers Wild Force 2002 - Gaoranger
Power Rangers Ninja Storm 2003 - Hurricaneger.
Power Rangers Dino Thunder 2004 -Abaranger
Power Rangers S.P.D. 2005 - Dekaranger
Power Rangers Mystic Force 2006 - Magiranger.
Power Rangers Operation Overdrive 2007 - Boukenger.
Power Rangers Jungle Fury 2008 - Gekiranger
Power Rangers RPM 2009- Go-onger
Power Rangers Samuraito premiere in early 2011 - Shinkenger

to what I remember the MMPR was the one I follow closely. I read that some of middle season is not very succesful due to vague adaptation, but thing started up after the Wild Force season. I heard the last season RPM is quite succesful also.

I watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and very old seasons of Super Sentai that was shown in Brazil, Dai Sentai Goggle V, Choushinsei Flashman, Hikari Sentai Maskman and the Dengeki Sentai Changeman, known here only as Changeman, this season of super sentai is very famous here and I think that is the most loved between the Brazilian fans. Probably who was child here in the end of 80 decade and the begin of 90 decade watched one those seasons.

Few years ago I remember that I watched on TV a crossover episode of Power Rangers talking about their japanese version, the Super Sentai. I really don't remember what season was that.

I really dunno if there is a cross over (in cameo) of PR and SS.

Google V is famous in here as well (SE Asia), it is the only completed sentai put in VHS/Beta format back in 80s.
