The new series(s) began pretty good and being videotaped instead of filmed as later series. This can have an affect on viewing as it gives a very particular atmosphere.

Kuuga and Agito are two KR series I want to watch, but they aren't complete as fansubs by the one group I favor most.

I didn't watch Hibiki yet, but otherwise, I've watched them all (present era shows) except for the latest, Fourze.

Watching them in production order seems to be a good route. You'll see an evolution in formula and story execution.

Any questions, just ask.

I don't watch Power Rangers. I watched... two? episodes of Shinkenger (Japanese series name for current PR). The first was raw, when it debuted since i was in Japan at the time. The second was the same week's episode that they had when Decade had its special crossover. Didn't care for it much.

But that's not Power Rangers so :smt102

Maybe Dragavon or SilverPhoenix might know.

Crap. It's really weak compared to some of the other seasons. The Red Ranger is unlikable. And the sixth Ranger acts like a douche.

Last series I enjoyed was Power Rangers Jungle Fury.
