Was Himitsu Sentai Gorenger a Good Start? - Super Sentai Retrospective (Review) 

20:38 Quick correction here: he uses a bow and arrow, not a sword. My point still stands, though.

Linkara: I dont care about making a Super Sentai Retrospective. I'll address the Original Sentai if it pertains to Creative Decisions and Production behind the respective Power Rangers Season but I reiterate that I DO NOT CARE about Super Sentai. KumaLink: Fine...I'll do it myself..... 0:00

I never expected to see someone do this in proper order

That is a huge comitment, stay strong, brother

I'm a fan of Linkara's HOPR. Now that he's done with it, your series on the history of Super Sentai is a worthy successor. You've earned a subscriber!

15:58 The beginning of the tradition I call "The Goddamn Ball".

So I looked it up, and according to TV Tropes, his reason for why he told the Gorangers his weakness and why he decided to go challenge them is because he was aware of the weakness but decided "screw that, I'm the master of my own destiny".

Omfg man i swear i wanted someone to do a hopr series for sentai since i started watching it in complete order last year (currently in jetman) thank you so much man hope this will blow up this is amazing

After watching a couple of seasons of super sentai non chronologically I decided to watch everything else in order and just started watching Goranger, also love Kiranger, definitely my favorite and had no idea about his end, very sad to hear, but hey, excelent video and can't wait tp also watch every season and then come here to see what you have to say about them

I still kinda wish that they actually showed us how Tsuyoshi, Akira, Daita, Peggy, and Kenji actually got their powers. All we saw was that they were the sole survivors of the Black Cross Army’s attacks and immediately was cut to them training with their Goranger powers.

Why don't you have 100k+ subs yet? Thats ridiculous. You deserve 100k+ subs. Sharing.

EXCELLENT VIDEO! You gotta keep these coming! (Unless you don’t want to then feel free to do what you’d like but) This video series might be how I introduce people to Super Sentai who don’t wanna watch the seasons!!!

Oh my gosh i love the idea of this series, ive been on a sentai/power rangers kick lately and this seems so awesome

You know not bad for a retrospective honestly didn't expect it would be similar to HOPR but overall pretty good

Finally, a proper spiritual sequel to HOPR, in the STYLE of HOPR. Well done. Subbed

Need to correct you on one thing there; Daita wasn't dumb. yeah he did struggle with word puzzles and riddles, but he was quite good with mathematics and mechanics, which is how he created his little YTC radio device. Other then that, everything else was pretty spot on and you succeeded where Linkara failed in one aspect. You respected the Sentai. (Maybe in future installments you would just simply use still frame images instead of 'copyright shield' in big red letters, but that's up to you). Great job though. :) Linkara: I hate Power Rangers, but I love Bulk and Skull. Also you do know that Marcosatsu only commented on your video with a single letter right?!

AH i see you too are a fan of daita, a common trope i've noticed in sentai was that more often than not yellow will be "best boi/girl". Also respec for starting from Gorenger like me, i managed to binge both kamen rider and sentai in the span of one year.

(Thank you for the summary) So my American version is “go star rangers go” is about there is no power rangers no grid nothing like that just invading evil force that been there for 40 years called the imperial force the goal is to keep the power and control but there an resistance called eagle led by commander eagle against iron fortress (that’s the imperial fortress captail) called the iron dictator so the iron dictator decided to attack one of the important bases that only five survived the five are our main heroes one who friends with a brother who lead the base passed away honorably,a guy who doesn’t hesitate to attack and ask questions later but he is cool,the comedic relief character who he or she friends with this kid who is very smart,a woman who in love with star 1 (red) but she went through but she uses her heart,and finally a person who cocky and a loner but learns in time to be a team player,so a muti colored meteor comes to earth into commander eagle base so he says”scientists convert that into power we can use against the imperial fortress” so the scientists convert that into five star Morphers and commander eagle tells the five to come here and make them into super soldiers that are called starrangers (the first ever power rangers) so with their ball and their commander disguises they gave the iron fortress a headache but they are scary and very calculated commander eagle reveals the truth about why he did this to save his brother but turns out his brother is iron dictator so,near the finale there was a spy who worked for the iron regime but the pink star loves him and shock and hurt that he was evil so the finale has the iron dictator more powerful then ever I mean he attack hard and evade their attacks but the starrangers found a way to defeat him with the kid help and commander eagle by the super power muti color ball and topple the iron regime and create the star grid the end Sorry but this is my summary of my version I tried my best to figure out btw I love your summaries keep up the great work

this is my new favorite series on yt. keep on keeping on young blood

1:25 bad news, now it's not just Toei who do copyright strike to Sentai video, Hasbro has joined the battle(yes even the one that didn't get adapted into Power Rangers)

Guy from that Toku tuber reddit thread here, plz keep making theses I love them

I absolutely love that you are so upfront with your inspiration!

I was just wanting a simple and fair resume about this really old and cringe show and this dude delivered. Thank you so much, this is great work

Glad to see someone taking Linkara's History of Power Rangers and using it for Sentai. Definitely gonna get more people interested in Sentai.

You may not be the first to do a Super Sentai retrospective, but I really like this and I'm looking forward to seeing more!

Your journey just began

We in the Philippines watched this in the late 70s redubbed as Star Rangers. It's fondly remembered by my generation who were lucky enough to get tokusatsu shows delivered straight from Japan before Power Rangers was made.

I know it will be a LONG time before we get to it but Akibarangers going to be hilarious

The Gorenger manga (one of them anyway, there were actually two by Ishinomori) does explain why Akarenger's suit looks a bit different; it turns out it was the prototype the other suits were based on. Random bit of trivia, allegedly the reason Peggy is "Momorenger" and not "Pinkurenger" so because momo can be short for "futomomo," and the staff thought Lisa Komaki had very nice thighs

I loved this retrospective, I hope Toku community to come and appreciate you

The gorengers is good start for the super sentai series/franchise

Himitsu Sentai Gorenger is pretty much a Kamen Rider Squadron (S.H.I.E.L.D. type heroes) vs. a Hydra like Kaiju super-criminal organization. And I love it for that premise alone.

Peggy certainly is in my top 5 Pink rangers and the best for quite a few years.

my my, what do we have here. now this video series is gonna be something great i can tell. goranger for me was always a comfort food kinda show; whenever i had a spare hour id just put on an ep or two of this to fill the void, a purpose which it suits perfectly, but binging the whole thing is just taxing, at least the ost is good. from a personal viewpoint i feel that sentai's most consistantly great period is the 80s to the 90s, which obviously some good stuff before and after, but itll be instereting to see someone who actually cares about this stuff discussing them in-depth like this. looking forward to more, just a shame that approximately 84 people are gonna watch this series until you get to jetman.

They got the Klans member as a villain 😮😮

Love this man, can’t wait to see more, but I have a bit of constructive criticism if you feel like hearing it. Your speaking cadence was a bit fast at times, perhaps slow down a bit? Also idk if it’s me but there were times were your voice got louder than I expected like around 13:31

This is pretty good work dude can’t wait to see more

really excited for this series always wanted to see a sentai version of hopr cant wait for magiranger

I thought that the first few episodes weren't too shabby, and since I became interested in it after having seen Power Rangers....and this was back in 1995, after I had read an article about Super Sentai in an issue of an anime rag called Protoculture Addicts. Of course, I didn't actually watch the show until the Internet became more widely available etc., and even then when I first saw the series there were no subtitles, the video quality of the source tapes at the time were pretty bad, and you're lucky if you get to see the occasional Japanese commercial.

This was a great review. This might come as a surprise to you but Goranger is actually my favorite sentai along with Flashman and Dairanger. When I first got into Sentai Goranger stood out to me the most because it was the original and it’s were the franchise started. It show also had certain charm to it that no other sentai had.

Yo I just shared ya video to my Facebook page so you get a little more support for your channel bro much luv btw I have a soft spot when it comes to Power Rangers and Super Sentai

25:34 but hey he returns in 199 hero battle (gokaiger vs goseiger) as a more modern momsterous version and at the end he becomes a kingdom hearts final boss giant thingy

0:00 Montreal Olympics (1976) mentionned!

Surprisingly Momoranger got alot to do and she's great in my opinion, especially compared to the pink rangers for the next five seasons that have pinks

I have just started subscribing to you because I want to see the Super Sentai breakdowns.

I love Poison Gas Mask. He's really cool.

Ayi, this was pretty good!

Great video. I can’t wait for the next one

Great first video, but I do have a question for this series. Are you planning on giving the series a regular schedule or are you just going the same way linkara did by release the videos when there done?

i learn about Sentai, when US dub Bioman in the US

I was going to do my own Super Sentai series of videos, with a counter for the number of Green Rangers who die and are then revived. It happens more often than you'd think at first...

I would love to get this Sentai on DVD and would love to get a figure out two.

This was really good, I'll gladly follow you along for this ride. Do you think it's worth watching Gorenger?

Could you do a Kamen Rider retrospective

Looking down on this show is not the mindset.

Check the gorenger /secret squad English cover theme song

Easily the most iconic senti.

Was just wondering if you plan on covering like the spinoffs of a season or sequels (like the 10/20 years later for some seasons) or plan on reviewing the unofficial sentai series?

Another question if you don’t mind but where did the gun man mask line come from?

If you don’t mind me asking but why do you say history repeats itself when you said that about the yellow goranger?

M

Goranger was first made as Kamen Rider's spinoff

I watch go sentai and stop at 70+ epsiode because i got bored 😂😂

I will personally dedicate a website to letting you post the videos getting taken down

What is your favorite sentai season? And do you watch Kamen rider?

Kamen rider stronger is the seventh series, not the fifth

To be fair, I don't know if it is because my age or something else, but I can't just watch those Sentai, Riders and old Tokusatsu shows, the early years just look ridiculous in my eyes. The costumes are ugly, the characters are lame, the monsters are worse than now, the series itself aged like milk (At least is not that crappy as Battle Fever). The true Sentai evolution started with Liveman and Jetman. You're doing good for humanity watching this shows so people doesn't have to.
