I thought you were supposed to be opposing Captain Shark, not adopting his bonkers mentality.
I don't think Fiveman, Liveman, Turboranger, Goggle V, Maskman, and Bioman are all that great, honestly. With a few exceptions, their rangers are flatter than the paper they were conceived on and the shows feature way too many mech battles and too many Monsters of the Week. Like I give Bioman credit for trying to do new things, but neither the heroes nor villains are interesting in the slightest. Even Changeman had a pretty generic ranger cast, but some of their villains were developed quite well enough to excel the show compared to its brethren. Of course, Dynaman is by far the most fun I've had of the 80s stuff and it is a shame MFC quietly dropped the show with only 15 episodes to go as I've been told the last 15 episodes are intense.
Hurricanger, while playing it safe, had development for its ranger teams, the Gouraigers started out bad, Shurukinger kept you guessing as who he really was, Saturokuro and Sargain were awesomely badass, it had pretty decent mech battles, among other things. I'd still put it in the middle of the road as far as Sentai series go, but I'll take it over a lot of the shows I mentioned.
