goseiger: complete gingaman recycling

I know that since super sentai is an old franchise, there are a lot of ideas that are reused in some series from previous series.
But, in the case of Goseiger, it seems to be "Gingaman with angels"

Premise: five warriors were from different tribes living separated from the humans (the ginga forest (gingaman) or Gosei world (Goseiger))
- the tribes are themed from elements (fire, water, wind, thunder,flower (Gingaman) sky, land, sea (Goseiger))
- they are stranded in the human world because they lose their connection with their native world (Forest petrified (Gingaman) or Tower of Heaven destroyed (Goseiger))
- They befriend a little boy and his bumbling father (Yuuta and his father (Gingaman) and Nozomu and his father (Goseiger))
- They find a work related to their ancient life where the aformentioned friends live ( Equitation club (Gingaman) astronomy institute (Goseiger (they came from Heaven))
- Their enemies, and the monster of the week changes during the series, with leaders replaced during the series ( the four Balban generals ( Gingaman) the Warstar, Yuumajuu and Matrintis (Goseiger)) ( Besides, in both cases, the first group of monsters of the week is insect themed, and one of them is marine animals themed)
- of course, the big bad remains through the series (Zahab (Gingaman) Buredoran (Goseiger))
- The sixth warrior at the beginning want to fight the enemies not caring at all for the humans (Bullblack (Gingaman) and Gosei Knight ( Goseiger)) but mellows afterwards (in the case of Gingaman, he gains an human host, but still)
- One of the villains betray his boss (Metal alice betrays Robogogu, Bucrates betray Zahab)
- Apprently, the sixth warrior is going to be used by the villains in both series ( Bullblack by Bucrates, and Gosei knight, apparently by Burajira)
- One of the villains's plot to create conflict between the boss and his subordonate is discovered and the traitor punished (Zahab discovers Illies and Bucrates's plan against Budoh and prevents Illies's resurrection and attacks Bucrates (Gingaman) Makuin discovers Buredoran' s plan against Kinggon and let the Goseiger kill Buredoran)

I'd say you're really good at the comparisons. I like it. esp. the whole "Gingaman with a religious and heaven theme" thing.
 
You could find similarities between all sentai's.
You're right; you can find some similarities in every sentai; I've done a post showing the similarities between Gingaman and both Zyuranger and Gaoranger; another about Jetman and Abaranger; and I found simirarities between the Saima clan and the Gaiark; but in this case, most of the ideas of a same sentai (Gingaman) have been reused in another one (Goseiger) ; finding so much similarities between two sentai series isn't as common.
 
Sentai have known to reuse ideas over the years, and not just with themes. In Gingaman, there was a lot of simularities between it and Zyu Rangers. Since Ryoma & Hyuga was alot like Geki & Burai.

If you want Another show with a lot of similarities, you should compare Carranger to Go-onger because those two really aren't that far off from each other.
