Sentai fans say that Sentai is superior and that PR can never beat it, while this is true to some extent, lets not forget WF was better the GaoRanger, GaoRanger was lame and didnt have much of a story, and the addition of MO was great to WF. Forever Red was better then GR vs SS, I thought the fight on the moon was better. Now, PR fans say they like PR more, not becuase they think its better per sa, but becuase an all american cast appeals to them more. That and they can understand what there saying. Well, I think the Sentai casts are better actors, so they appeal to me more, and the language thing isnt an issue becuase i have sentai dubbed and subbed. PR has the ability to make a Sentai 10x better or 10x worse. Sentai fans need to learn PR fans are a fanbase too and they have there personal tastes and PR fans need to learn that America does not make everything better and that Sentai makes PR what it is. Those are my thoughts.

PR I think takes itself way to serious sometimes.

I'm not much of a big fan of subs either.. and dubbing live action stuff is never as good if they just talk English. Sentai is cool, and I like a lot of things about it, but in my opinion it's hard to compare it to Power Rangers. It's just much more convenient.

I guess I just like the higher level of maturity it has, it makes it seem less kiddish and I was always more impressed with the acting abilty. I can understand why some people perfer PR over Sentai however. Becuase some people dont have access to Sentai in english, and they have nothing to compare too, or maybe some things about the Japanese culture alienate them, which I think are the two biggest drawbacks for some people.

The way they did it seemed so ordinary to me... but that's just what I think.

If so, then I agree with you, they never explained how Master Org got his Body and why Toxica and Jindrax had to live because it was obvious that Master Org's head was Jindrax, the staff was a part of Toxica, and she helmet type thing was on his wrist. They really should have explained his new bodily form, it would of give WF the final umh it needed

There were no explanations given, just a super-powerful monster that will destroy all of our zords but we'll defeat by an amazing twist of fate. It would have been unordinary is they had explained it.

Posts: 2,621 Group: Members Member #5 Joined: January 18, 2003	This is someone at PRC wrote: The sentai/PR debate is starting to heat up with die hard fans of each genre hammering it out with insults, flamings, and threats. PR fans like the way sentai has been re-made to suit their tastes while sentai fans are somewhat insulted at the fact that their favorite artform has been altered. Sentai fans are, IMO, self explanatory, for these are people who have move away from the norm and has ventured out to explore a different culture and a different world. But why does some people hate sentai? Why do they insist that the American re-creation is better? Some people in this world, no matter what culture, race, creed, or color, can be easily intimidated by things unknown. The human brain can act in two ways to adapt to the unknown. One, it can try to understand it, explore futher, and learn. This reaction is called curiosity. It is a brain function that allows for the brain to absorb and process data. Sentai fans began when they saw a medium that they first did not undersatnd, but something in their brain began to take in interest. It then allowed them to explore further leading to an expanded view of the world. Curiosity, when used properly, will lead to brain function that marks an increase in enlightenment; understanding. Two, the brain will sense something unknown and instead of adapting to the uknown, it begins to reject it. This reaction, in its mild state, is called indifference. The brain will not make the effort to analyse the unknown. Instead, it will fight against it and want to be away from the subject, a similar reaction as fear (though to a lesser extent). In turn, the person will want to stay in the boundaries of the familiar, making his world smaller. Anything new to him will be rejected, even destroyed. The worst case scenario is the next step in the brain function of indifference; bigotry. In the history of mankind, indifference and bigotry has led to the downfall of civilizations, loss of knowledge, and reversal of society. *People here have called me a sentai snob. Well, OK, that's understandable. For the record, I don't entirely hate PR (except for PRLR, many people can empathize with me on that). I want more PR episodes to be made and I wish good luck to Disney in bringing Abaranger here. I have praised PR before, especially Time Force. But the truth is, I love sentai more. I have always been fascinated with the Japanese culture (that's why I chases Japanese women in College). For the anti-sentai people, I totally understand you. But if you are going to be against something, back up your reasons. Don't just say sentai sucks.
