Most Underrated Toku?

What is the most underrated Toku that you're a fan of and why do you like it?

For me, as per my avatar and name, I'm a bit partial to Denkou Choujin Gridman and it's american counterpart, Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad

The reason why I think I like it is because of the fact that the hero fights with monsters in a completely digital arena, similar to VR Troopers, sure but Gridman/Servo got gigantic like Ultraman in order to fight said best

The fact that both Gridman and Servo have a wealth of weapons and upgrades to vanquish the mega virus monsters doesn't hurt either

I also like Robot Keiji because it was one of Ishimori-san's early works and it has a solid storyline and JAKQ because of it's quirky costume design and gritty story

What's yours?

I've got a few.

Ohranger: Too many fans believe in that stupid lie about the whole "Ohranger nearly canceling Sentai." Seriously. WTF? :redface2:

Gingaman: Too many fans believe in that stupid lie about it being hated by the Japanese in favor of Lost Galaxy. Again, WTF? :redface2:

Zyuranger: Non-Japanese fans don't ever seem to watch Zyuranger for being Zyuranger. They watch it for being source material for another show. :redface2:

GoGoFive: Like many 90s Sentai, I think a lot of fans were influenced by Power Rangers to play a role on their opinions towards 90s Sentai.

Abaranger: I think people need to recognize it's story and characters more instead of just viewing the comedic scenes as just stupid scenes.

Goggle V: Definitely way better than what people think when they take a glimpse at this season.

These two rumors are what piss me off about this fandom. Some one says something stupid, another person repeats it, another persons blows it up more, it gets repeated again, 4 years later it is some how "Fact".

Original Ultraman, Tiga and Gransazers.

Changerion! It needs to be discussed more! :laugh: And I want more of its toys! Give me a bootleg Blader or something I dont care! :laugh:

TEKKOUKI MIKAZUKI! The greatest Toku of all time. It has everything and more. Its a shame it hasnt even been subbed, mostly beacuse its just 7 episodes!

(Wasn't that Ohranger thing true though?)

I agree with Abaranger. When it comes to Sentai discussion, nobody seems to really bring it up. Understandable though, it didn't really have like something that was like "TEH ****!" about it (except for AbareKiller) but it's a very lovable series on its own with a great plot and fun characters.

No. It is not true.
