sentai heroes and series's plot; an analysis (part 2)

Here is the second part of that analysis; the first part has covered series from Goranger through Megaranger
The second half is about Gingaman and beyond (SPOILERS ahead)

Gingaman: the main plot is mostly about the rivalries between the Balban; however, there are some other major plots; notably those involving Hyuuga (Kurokishi, the sixth ranger), since he's both involved in a way in the orifginal Kurokishi plot, but he has also an important plot with Bucrates; like in Zyuranger, the brother, Ryouma (Red), is also involved, especially in the Kurokishi plot; Hayate (Green) has also the rivalry with Shelinda, and Gouki (Blue), the love story with the pretty teacher
GogoV: no real specific plot for a sibling; the show is focused on the family and rescue theme, and as a result, every hero is involved
Timeranger: also a case with a lot of plots involving many heroes; Tatsuya has the most focus (he's the Red after all) , with his romance with Yuuri, his conflicts with his father and Naoto (Timefire); he's really central in the plot; Yuuri (Pink) has also some important arcs, since her conflict with Dolnero is personal, and she has her romance with Tatsuya; Ayase has his disease arc and Domon, his romance with Honami-chan (not unlike the Gingablue plot (Kobayashi :laugh:) ; and of course, as the sixth, Timefire has an importnatn storyline with the City Guardians, involving both Tatsuya and Tatsuya's father
Gaoranger; not a lot of long running plots; the most important plot being the Rouki one
Hurricanger: interesting case: most of the plots involve mostly the additional rangers, the Gouraigers first (their initial "evil ranger" plot and the conflict with Manmaruba); Shurikenger is also plot heavy, especially with the Gozen-Sama plot, once Sandaru comes
Abaranger: other notable case: the central ranger in the plot is Asuka (Abareblack) , rather than the Red ranger (he's the one who's the most involved with the Evorian, and he has the plot with Jannu/ Mahoro); Abarekiller, the "sixth" ranger is also plot rich, as a villain and his connection with Rije, and his plot involved a lot Ryouga (Abared)
Dekaranger: the series is mostly episodic, with no real long running plots
Magiranger; like most sibling team sentai, the plot involves everyone, with more focus on Red (he has also his plot with his girlfriend); Magishine, as a sixth, has also a lot of focus, notably his rivalry with Meemy.
Boukenger: also a specific case: several heroes have important rivalries; Satoru (Red) with Ryuuwon, Masumi (Black) with Yaiba, and Eiji (Silver) with the Ashu/ Questers; each one is importnant in each villain group's plot
Gekiranger: another interesting case, in a very plot heavy season: Jan (Red) is in the center; but the first half has also plots with Retsu (Blue) and Ran (Yellow) and their masters; then Gou has his arcs (the werewolf one, and his rivalry with Rio); and Ken (Chopper) has his intro arc; the plots however especially involve the villains (notably Rio and Mele), and the supporting characters
Go-onger: no real long running plot for the heroes:
Shinkenger: the most important plots is the kagemusha plot at the end,and the rivalry between Takeru and Juuzo: heavy Red focus; there is a rivalry between Dayu and Mako, but it didn't have a lot of focus
Goseiger: also a case of few long running plots invloving the heroes; the main events are the villain group changes; Alata (Red), as the leader has some focis, as well as Goseiknight (the sixth)
Gokaiger: two major long running plots; the Marvelous/ Basco rivalry, and the Joe/ Sid/ Barizorg plot.

Okay; at the end, it can be noticed that the ones having the most focus are usually the Red ranger, and, starting with Zyuranger, the additional ranger; howver, there are a lot of differences in different seasons
Some thoughts?
