Sentai is the Best Tokusatsu sho

Sad thing was Boukenger is not bad or even bad as Abaranger or Gaoranger.

I stopped reading after that because Abaranger's one of only two sentai shows from the '00s that I call good (and, no, the other one sure as hell isn't Boukenger). :P

What's the other one?

Timeranger. It's good and well written, but there's something about the cast that has made me not really champion it as much as others who enjoy it. I didn't think the five Timeranger actors had the rapport that was needed and that hurt the series.

That's not to say that I didn't enjoy shows like Gaoranger or Boukenger, but I thought they were lacking overall and could have been much better.

Let me see...

Kamen Rider = Star Trek = boring, pretentious stuff.

Sentai = Star Wars. The old ones were awesome, but the new ones are so mind-numbingly watered down, horrible, and cute that you just ignore them?
 
Wow... that must be the most biased bash-down of Kamen Rider ever.

Did you even bother watching ANY KR series?

First of there is no way KR can be better because Kamen rider is not even merely good as Sentai. (Like a wise man said "Let a fool talks because he is blinded by fake”) Watching Kamen Rider is like eating meal without a flavour or salt. I always had a feeling that there are big things missing in KR. That's so much talking and a little less action. At end of eps you didn't even know eps was finished cuz they left you with cliff hanger storylines and when you watch the next ep, they moved on to new story.

The fact is, Kamen Rider will have more action than Sentai will ever have. Do you know why? Because KR isn't hung up about working as a team, or being nice. You pretty much contradicted yourself, saying Sentai gives a message, but then saying KR was plain. Storylines, KR ALWAYS manages to give you the greatest storylines possible. Not Sentai's crappy episode by episode fillers. There will always be action in KR, suspense, and they never drop off an episode arc because they feel like. Give me one example. Even if they don't mention it for a while, 2 - 3 eps or so, it makes sense becuase one enemy isn't going to keep reappearing, to get defeated over and over again. Recuperation, realism.

KR had very plain, confused, weird storylines with Lifeless characters act as expressed their emotion in a Dark room (Kuuga and Agito are good example).

Confused storylines? Don't make me laugh. You lack the comprehension to understand some. Kuuga and Agito had some of the most dramatic and compelling storylines ever, but all you can understand is the rainbow colorness of Sentai. You probably never watched Agito before, or else you would understand why is rated one of the greatest Tokusatsu in japan. The story lines aren't confusing, you just lack the maturity to understand it. Try watching the whole thing for once, instead of reading up on it for 5 minutes, and then decide to put it down for now reason.

Big humour and real fun side of life is missing is KR where most series are too serious and depressing. Some of Worst Toku Final episodes have to be kuuga and agito where I didn’t know the final eps story was ended and it was finished just like that. No feeling to it or dramatic.

Ok, that was the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Big humor is missing and KR is too depressing? And yet in the last sentence you say there's no drama. Kuuga and Agito along with Black are the most drama filled series you can get. Sentai doesn't come ANYWHERE close in terms of drama.

Some new toku fans started watching kabuto and they are like ohh its best **** or whatever but really! kabuto is not exactly Magiranger or don't have THAT quality of entertainment or standard of action like Sentai series had. Where is big fire explosion (I don’t mean those green explosions by worms)? When was last time worms caused huge havoc or disaster to whole Tokyo?? I mean building collapsing and I don’t see any meaningful life messages given except just those egotistic quotes from Tendo which according to his grandma.

There, even more proof that all you desire is immature explosions you find in Sentai, that MAKE NO FUCKING SENSE AT ALL. Kabuto has become, albiet a bit rushed, one of the better Kamen Rider. Who needs fire explosions? What do they add to a story? All that shows is that you are a moron, and can only be captured into a show if they add 5000 tons of explosives and make your tv flash. Who cares if Worms don't cause havoc to Tokyo. Are you high? They manifest the entirerty of japan, replacing humans. They massively erupt at any moment, destroying humans with no guilt at alll. When was the last time you saw Sentai destroy civilians like no tommorow on an episode to episode basis? Egotistical quotes? Thats because you don't spend the time to think about them at all. They make quite a bit of sense in a philosophical way. Thats what gives Tendou his personality. Now, about the **** you gave about exploding buildings. That sentence made no sense whatsoever. What about exploding buildings? Does a series need exploding buildings, WITH NO FUCKING PEOPLE IN THEM, to make a good tv show. Kamen Rider is REALISTIC. Its not made for people with atom sized brains that can't be hooked onto a show unless it has explosions, bombs, and building blowups.

Their looks are so weird, never being traditional or similar in term of suits, face or even colour, some say red eyes but really.. hibiki had no eyes and faiz had yellow and not friendly appeal to it with those uneven bug eyes and weird mask shape.
This series put a bunch of so many female characters in a show just to burden the heroes, some of them can’t even transform and go around assist the heroes.(sure there are a few female riders but only in KR movies) These simply shown that females were weak in KR series.

Look weird? You're saying a show sucks because there costumes don't make you feel sexually aroused? Their costumes are WAY MORE realistic. You really think because blasted by 1000 lasers in Sentai while wearing a spandex uniform will make you surivive? Kamen Rider actually has metal suits, along with Armor. Hibiki was designed like that because it was a demon series. Kamen Rider actually knows how to make suits to match the theme, something Sentai does but not nearly as well.

The female character thing. Misaki and Renge in the recent series of Kabuto have more than proved their worth as strong female characters. Although some have been less than heroic than Sentai, overall, they aren't weak, if thats what you think. Perhaps you should watch some more KR, there have been female heroes outside of movies as well.

Never really had proper or defined villain teams or organisation as MOW as mainly as villain and monster. I don't even wanna go there when it comes to KR monsters of week. I feel sorry for them as they don't have any super-natural power or abilities like shoot laser or fire. I mean for God sake doing something like they look awesome and all they do is just go around and punch, slash the riders. And those most worms in kabuto what do they do? They run around with fast light speed and punch the heroes.

Now this line just pissed me off like no tommorow. LASERS? FUCKING LASERS? Are you a fucking idiot? Is that all you care about? LASERS? Dammit, what the hell is wrong with you? Lasers? Is that what you think makes a show? Random monsters firing LASERS out of their mouths? LASERS. Not have any supernatural powers? Thats because they don't choose to show it in the form of LASERS or BIG EXPLOSIONS that go off in the background because it makes you happy. Kamen Rider has had an even share of Central villians in some series, and more renegade like villians in others. Kamen Rider isn't about magic, but if thats all that can capture you attention, I'm sorry. Riders have weapons, but do you really expect a Worm to shoot a laser of their mouth? Upper Worms have the ability to charge certain parts of their body, other's have multiple finishers. Obviously you haven't bothered to watch much of that either. But then again, if a show doesn't have Lasers, if must turn you off immediately. Lasers are possibly the most unrealistic thing to come out of any enemy possible unless they have some sort of weapon. At least the speed is explanable for Worms, and there ability to mimic humans is an alien trait. But lasers? Dammit, you're sounding like Kalish deciding to stick as many lazers into PR as posssible.

I don’t define a good toku show which doesn’t have Proper Ending Credit in it.
Some says KR is dark and mature which I agreed but really.. this series aimed to toddler and very young kids. This series really need to lighten the characters or story.

Proper ending credit? Are you high? Is that what you define a show as? So you can go through and attempt to read the ending credits. Oh wow, if you think ending credits make a toku show, you're possibly the dumbest person i've ever met. And that last sentence, contradicts itself completely. First you say KR has a dark mature theme, but then you say its aimed at little kids? What do you mean? KR is aimed at a slightly higher age range than Sentai, and during Hibiki, Tv-Asahi was about to move it to an afternoon timeslot, denoting an adult show, if they hadn't changed directors. Lighten the characters and story? First you say the story ins't enough, but now you come out with the bullshit that the story is too much? Make up your mind, because it really seems like you pulled all this nonsense out of your ass. If it lightened up in story, it'd become another happy peppy Sentai, with everyone going around similing and explosions blowing up.

----------

Kabuto isn't the greatest KR series to happen, but I have to say, the way you describe Kamen Rider, you might as well be talking about Barney.

What I posted before to this nonsense.
I don't hate Sentai at all, in fact, I think its a great series.

Its just the way this guy portrayed Sentai and KR, it made it look like all he cared about was Explosions, Lasers, Buildings Blowing Up, Kiddy Stories, and Ending Credits.

Had to lighten the mood there a bit. The important thing here is that everyone remember (newbies included), that everyone had different likes/dislikes. Just because you're more of a sentai fan instead of a Kamen Rider fan (or vice versa) does NOT give you the right to start bashing/flaming. Feel free to PIMP what you like, just don't start outright dissing/insulting people who may disagree with you and or who may be fans of genres or shows that you may not like. These shows are here for entertainment, not for philisophical debate. Just sit back and enjoy the shows.
