An Introduction to Super Sentai!!!

[@NerdySatyr]

Highly recommend Gokaiger, despite it being my first Sentai, it honestly makes you feel like part of the fanbase, it's so welcoming and amazing

[@thepronoob4039]

Gokaiger and Mebius are what in my opinion are the two best places to start Tokusatsu in general, on Sentai and Ultraman's side of things at least. They are both solid stories on their own but incorporates characters and stories of previous seasons as both are anniversary seasons. From watching both you learn of the history of both shows and could allow you to pick on what you should watch next.

[@tulpabubble2453]

Id also recommend Akibaranger, its like Gokaiger but far more meta, and comedy focused. AkibaRed is the best character

[@NerdySatyr]

@@tulpabubble2453 Yes I've heard good things about it, though lots of inside jokes about the franchise, and a tad more adult haha!

[@atulgupta2595]

Mine too

[@DIVECRAFTVODS]

I’ve already finished both Gokaiger and Goseiger atm, and I’m currently watching Shinkenger, Go-Onger, Zyuranger, Fiveman, Jetman, Ohranger, Gorenger, etc. for the Super Sentai side of things atm

[@gokairedwillcipher]

For new SENTAI fans I recommend Gokaiger. The anniversary episodes help you learn about the previous SENTAI

[@abangjago7119]

Kiramager truly does have everything that makes a great Sentai. It puts the "fun" in "fundamentals". Why did I say that? Because I think that Sentai is a "back to basics" season, but it doesn't feel cliched. It has everything you could expect from a good Sentai tbh.

[@bruntass]

My first sentai was Zyuranger 20+ years after watching MMPR and boy was that an experience. All these characters that I knew, but now they're all called something else and exist in a different context altogether.

[@thatoneslushieaddict]

Gekiranger being recommended was just amazing. I thought it was a more meh series to the community but I’ve always loved it.

[@ruv2777]

same, people in my toku community also have the season that meh for them but awesome for me. Zenkaiger. i just love robots and thats the reason XD

[@dyldog8837]

Timeranger is the first Sentai I've ever watched fully all 51 episodes and the vs movie and it is so damn good I've also watched Kyuranger but haven't completed it fully yet only have about 8 episodes left but those 2 I'd have to highly recommend as a good starting point

[@_Claus_]

Kinnikuman is so much fun. A vid on it would be pretty cool. In terms of sentai, I recommend Timeranger, it's pretty good

[@lombardi4]

Gokaiger and Dekaranger are always the GOAT

[@Dantheman11281]

Well, Zyuranger wasn't the first USA introduction for Toku. The USA network aired voice dubbed episodes of Dynaman. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously and only lasted 7 episodes. It was referred to as a dubbed parody using original footage but the English overdub was meant to be comical. This was back in 1987.

[@HordikaNate3821]

Megaranger is a great for MMPR fans as it has sorta the same set up as that show(almost feeling like a Sentai version of MMPR), it's about a group of highschoolers being given digital powers by Inet to fight virus monsters. It's got a fun cast of characters and episodes, and it's final arc is a legitimate tearjerker

[@sketchpen777]

Kakuranger is literally my favorite thing ever, I love Gokaiger also, Jetman is cool cuz well Gai ofcourse, Flashman is cool Dai is best cuz of his brass knuckles. Dynaman is the oldest I've seen,I like it too can be slow but the amount of explosions that happen constantly will keep u awake. I'm currently watching Lupinranger VS Patranger and damn is it cool.

[@tulpabubble2453]

Gokaiger is an amazing starting point, but I'd say the absolute best for someone getting into Sentai, would be Akibaranger, an "Unofficial" sentai but probably the biggest love letter to it. Plus it has the "American Powerful Rangers" the thing that cemented my love of Sentai

[@Dragonnitequeen]

I recommend Dekaranger

[@maingamer6846]

Any season from the 90s is a good introduction. Jetman, Dairanger, Kakuranger, Carranger, Megaranger or Timeranger

[@chaosleo815]

Hey Mr.FalconPunch! Great video! It's been a long time hasn't it. I've decided to comeback to KZbin with a new look and start from the beginning again. Super Sentai is great and you provided a great introduction for newcomers. I've been watching Sentai since 2006 with Boukenger and I've been going back and watching the older ones from the 90's and early 2000's and there's just something about the shows and demographic back then they were able to get away with and character deaths to some senshi like TimeFire, Shurikenger, Abare killer and others. I never thought I'd see the day you talk about Super sentai and Kamen Rider. Keep up the great content my friend and I'll try and do the same:)

[@stephencastro4723]

Some Super Sentai shows were aired in other countries like Brazil, France and the Philippines during the late 80's and early 90's. Our country the Philippines had the privilege of watching GoRanger, JAKQ, Goggle V, Bioman, Maskman, Turboranger, Fiveman and Jetman.

[@boba3597]

I grew up watching Power Rangers and got into super sentai with my ex a few years ago. We watched Kakuranger and i absolutely love that series

[@thatonedude5277]

My recommendations are Liveman if you want an older show and Abaranger for something a little more familiar to PR fans

[@seileen1234]

Love Liveman, the villains are so funny and dramatic

[@RedRanger1]

i love your video introduction an music theme....by the same time your documentation about sentai was excellent , thank to you Sentai fan ; MrFalconPunch !!! yeaaaahhh!

[@itsgaimtoduel695]

My first sentai series was Toqger, which is my favorite because of my bias. But my other favorites in my top 5 are Gokaiger, Kyuranger, Go Busters and (usually a toss up between Lupin v. Pat, shinkinger, and kyoryuger depending on the day.)

[@MrFalconnpunch]

I’ve been meaning to check out Toqger for awhile, heard loads of good things.

[@itsgaimtoduel695]

@@MrFalconnpunch it has a really great blend of silly and fun. Its not one to take seriously, but it does at some point tackle serious topics. Its just overall a good time. It got me into toku as a whole excluding just power rangers as a kid

[@MrFalconnpunch]

@@itsgaimtoduel695 I actually like more sillier Sentai series so it’s right up my alley in that regard

[@HeIsTheBluesCat]

My first Sentai has to be Dairanger or Kakuranger. I'm super happy Super Sentai has blazed a looong trail in Tokusatsu that will burn for years time come!

[@frankqueno5852]

5:25 that clip is so out of context that it is scary I love it hahaa

[@hkpika9730]

ALRIGHT SO THIS IS AN UNPOPULAR ONE BUT. I highly HIGHLY recommend ToQger! It’s very underrated. It has awesome train fights! The main gimmick of the Sentai not only being trains but also that the team members can SWAP colors around. Which is why they go by numbers instead of colors. So red can turn green and green can turn yellow and so on. But it has an amazing cast of characters that feel like they’re all actually friends that would do anything for each other. Their 6th is a great character as well. AND THE VILLAINS OH THE VILLAINS. They’re so good because 90 percent of the time they’re just in-fighting and trying to sabotage each other. The suits for the villains are also the coolest I’ve ever seen in a Sentai. The connection between the villain and the red is also SUPER interesting. The cast and their friendship will grab you by your throat and won’t let go. The ending WILL make you cry. If you know, you know.

[@konamiman87]

I have watched about 20 shows in the Super Sentai Series so far over the years and it's a really series. But now I have decided to start at the beginning with Go Ranger and watch/rewarch every sentai up to this point.

[@seileen1234]

For drama: Liveman, Jetman, Dairanger For fun: Hurricanger, Gaoranger, Megaranger, Dekaranger

[@christophergomez2016]

I watched Zyuranger Because I watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers season 1 because I’m always been a Sentai fan.

[@brandonsmith1198]

I really enjoy the super sentai

[@Vrinara]

I discovered Super Sentai in 2010. but I didn't actually get the courage to watch any sentai till around 2013. (Possibly earlier) When I watched Goseiger, which even though people give it a lot of shit. I love the idea of Angels fighting to protect the earth. I've seen the following Sentai from Start to finish. Gokaiger, Kyoryuger, Goseiger, Abaranger, Timeranger, Gaoranger, Hurricanger, Dekaranger, Magiranger and Shinkenger. ALl of these I can strongly recommend any fan watching. I am currently watching Baukenger, and Plan to go through the series from there to the newest one. Now the ones I have no real interest in are sadly Gobusters, and Kiramager. The reason for these is while yes, I might give them a chance, their themes just by looking at them doesn't appeal to me. I've heard a lot of good things about them, but sometimes, something just isn't for you you know? Still I may give them a shot. I can't wait to get into the older seasons honestly.

[@OtakuKokiri]

Hell yeah! Shinkenger is great. I'm currently watching it as my first sentai series as I grew up with Power Rangers Samurai. Also everyone in Shinkenger acts like they're in an anime which I love so much as I watch an immense amount of anime lmao

[@Vrinara]

If I had to make a list of the sentai seasons I've seen from what I enjoyed to what I didn't It would go something like this. Enjoyed to didn't enjoy: 1. Gokaiger 2. Kyoruger 3. TimeRanger 4. Goseiger (Yes! I enjoyed Goseiger! leave it alone!) 5. Dekaranger 6. Abaranger 7. Gaoranger, 8. Hurricanger 9. Shinkenger 10. Magiranger. Ill be honest. I enjoyed every season I have watched. But the ones in the 8, 9, and 10 slots are the ones I enjoyed but not as much as the others.

[@monster-mecha_enthusiast_2002]

Dispite that it was Power Rangers growing up? My first introduction to Super Sentai was the 2000's ones from Hurricanger to Go-onger along with the other Sentai seasons in the late 90's from Gingaman to Gaoranger :D I mean, don't get me wrong I know nobody's a fan of Power Rangers but in my unpopular opinion, my favorite parts about the series were the Battlizers, cuz' why not? lol.

[@AceRebelUnderground]

I would recommend tensou sentai goseiger & kaizoku sentai gokaiger

[@hilarioph]

In the Philippines on RPN 9 or 9 the leader back in the ’80s. They aired Goranger or better known as Starrangers they dubbed in English. Sadly it aired only 10 episodes due to all the dubbers focusing on Anime dubbing or I don't know. But when Superbook aired on GMA 7. People say this could be the first anime, Jesus to appear on Philippine television right after Marcos banned Voltes 5. But many Filipinos never like Superbook Anime. I like the Superbook Anime I watched as a kid. Then when ABS CBN aired in 1986 they aired Bioman. It was aired every Friday before TV PATROL at 6 pm. Bioman reached the top of the final episode and they kept on repeating until 1990 when Maskman aired after IBC 13 aired in 1989. Jetman aired on RPN 9 in 1996. It ended before ABC 5 aired now TV5. But sadly to say they never completed their episodes like Maskman, Turboranger and Fiveman

[@earltan7067]

If you want to watch the entire series and want some sort of good introduction to seasons pre Zyuranger/MMPR, I recommend Denziman, Bioman, or Flashman. I see people recommending Liveman and Jetman but it'd be better to watch them chronologically.
