Even if you didn't like Decade's execution, I don't see how the concept was "lazy". It was undoubtedly ambitious and it was a commercial success too. Really, not only commercial, I remember that during Decade's airing, "Kamen Rider" actually appeared among the top searches of sites that generally focus only on animes, so it got a lot of attention from the western fanbase too.
I can understand people not liking the execution, but I really don't see how it can be argued that the concept was "lazy".

Just because it was popular doesn't mean it was less lazy, just as how Biebers popularity doesn't make him less crap. How do justify a show with no story or depth being more than lazy? Sure, it was entertaining, I'll give it that, but everything in the show was predictable fanshits any fan could have come up with, to be quite frank I don't see anything to say it wasn't lazy.

What about the way that they worked to make almost every single world feel unique? Even though the worlds all had to stick by a formula that involved a team up at the end, they all had really different atmospheres and flow. Even the Kuuga and Kiva worlds, which followed nearly the same plot outline were really different due to the way the differences of each world were played out. How was that lazy at all? Decade used the multiple worlds concept and motif genuinely well. Decade might have failed in other areas, but I don't see how that part was badly executed or lazy.
Anyway, I'm not saying that its popularity proves its quality, I wasn't even arguing for its quality. However, the reason it attracted so much attention WAS because it had an ambitious concept. Yes, the execution didn't satisfy many people, but I don't see how you can say that the concept itself wasn't ambitious, considering how that concept was what hooked people to the series.

Especially at that time it was something that was never done before. Before then nobody had the balls to attempt it due to it being too risky.

Nice post!!
Yeah, I don't think you can call Decade's concept lazy. It was attempting to do a stage show with a full TV budget and narrative, that really hadn't been produced before.
I think you can fairly call the execution lazy, but not the basic idea of "instead of a 10th anniversary special, let's do a half-year TV show full of crazy things nobody ever thought we'd film!"

I don't really see the point in having an anniversary for something as ass random as a 35th, it just seems like an excuse for publicity.
That said, ideally, it would be a Sentai written by Kazuki Nakashima, it would take a Kakuranger-like approach in gathering the Rangers. So, rather than all of them popping up in one episode, you would have maybe eight or so episodes to gather them up. After episode eight, you would have them finding their mecha, and the first cours would end at episode 13 with the formation of the mecha for the first time. I got the feeling Dairanger wanted to do this in regards to the mecha, but episode 8 was as far as Bandai would let them stretch it. I really think it would be an interesting approach and perhaps actually cut down on any superfluous amount of toys when you make the main mecha seem epic and have a decent build up.
Hell, the Rangers could have vehicles or whatever to pad for toy sales until that 13th episode, which the main mecha would likely be released on.
Also! I think a new team name suffix would be neat, something in an -izer or -ion would be fun.

Not...really. It seemed to mimic the Shouwa series more than anything by having multiple Riders in one series. It just worked a whole heck of a lot better in Shouwa because past Riders generally showed up in nearly every series when it comes to the original five.
