Power Rangers Season 2 vs Gosei Sentai Dairanger - What's the difference? | Pomelo Retro

I've always wondered what was the difference between Power Rangers and Super Sentai. Following on from my first video that compared Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers with its Japanese (Super Sentai) counterpart; Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger - this time we turn our attention to the basis of Season 2 - Gosei Sentai Dairanger.

I will say this: Whoever at Saban thought up of Lord Zedd's design should be given several raises.

Maybe they should have switched to the Dairanger suits when they introduced the White Ranger. Could have sold more toys as well. Make it about giving all the rangers new powers instead of just Tommy. Probably didn't want to have to explain why the green ranger had to go away, but Dairanger had a green ranger and not a black ranger type of thing.

I’m one of those who wish for the diaranger suits in season 2.

[blackphoenix]

They definitely should've used the Dairanger suits for Power Rangers

I grew up in japan as a kid and Dairanger was so dope! Can’t believe they didn’t use the martial arts theme of this in the us ranger series

Rip to shishi ranger a.k.a green dairanger a.k.a daigo.. He died in 2017

It's a shame they didn't go with the ranger footage, I love the dairanger suits.

I feel Saban not useing all the dairanger suits was a mistake on their part so much they could have done.

Dairanger is basically a Japanese take on Chinese mythology and history. Qi or chi is pretty much the same stuff in Dragonball Z.

That isn't a fart at the end of fortification

It's a japanese anime shine sound effect

A lot of Japanese series use cartoony sounds

[andrewwales]

IMO they totally could have used the Dairanger suits and footage. imagine an alternate Season 2 where Zedd changes his strategy and sends down the Dairanger henchmen (which can SHAPESHIFT, automatically making them more of a threat) to fight the rangers instead of slightly different looking putties.

No mention of the Dairanger suits' out-of-nowhere appearances in Super Megaforce?

[jdb]

There's some concept art that show that they pitched updating the Dinozords rather than using the Thunderzords (and the upgraded zords would even combine with the White Thunderzord). Toei was on board, but it would cost extra. So they just decided to go the cheaper route and use Thunderzords instead.

[Aibadenshi]

Imagine they give everyone the Dairanger instead of just Tommy.

[hunterkiller]

Awesome review. I love how you fairly compared the two.ratherbthan destroying one series.

[Henners]

They got so lucky that the Dairanger suits were close enough

[rcarfang]

Serprenterra was used to attack the Power Rangers in a few episodes but it couldn't finnish the ranbgers off cause it kept having to recharge. Now i understand why since in dairanger the Dragon god was neutrural.

I’ve been watching Dairanger over at the Shout Factory site. It was a fun show! It reminds me a lot of old-school superhero comics by the likes of Stan Lee or Roy Thomas. (And yes, I’m aware of Stan’s interesting connection to the Power Rangers franchise, before that name itself had even existed.)

[MattParker]

There was a plan to use the Dairanger suits in Lost Galaxy as the Magna Defenders original team of Rangers. I believe it's why Mike uses an AuraChanger to morph but the idea was scrapped when the actress who played Kendrix was diagnosed with cancer and had to leave the show.

I did not know that the differences were this big. Very good content!
