Before it was known as Power Rangers Zeo it was Cho-Riki Sentai OhRanger, a series designed to pay homage to old military shows and featured every series head writer for the previous Super Sentai seasons as contributors to the scripts of OhRanger. Sadly, the Aum Shinrikyo terrorist cult attacked the Japanese subway system, releasing tear gas that killed 15 individuals and injured another 30. Their leader’s thoughts closely aligned to what OhRanger‘s story line was intended to be (an ancient civilization giving super powers to people of today) and the show’s direction was scrapped and the series re-written, becoming one of the least successful and least popular Super Sentai shows of its time.
But thanks to Millionfold Curiosity FanSubs, and the ever popular translator MegaAnon, the series Cho-Riki Sentai OhRanger is now being subtitled and released to fans around the world. This is an incredibly excellent chance to catch a series that, as far as I know, was either never subtitled in its entirety or was long ago and has since been lost (or it was just a bad sub/bad quality video).

This is relevant to my interests.
Wait, didn't OH Ranger almost kill Sentai in japan?

But that's attributed to the fact the show had a rather serious theme at the beginning, but due to the terrorist attack and the fact their leader's views (he would be granted special powers by an ancient civilization and OhRanger's story was they were granted special powers by an ancient civilization) caused the show to make a dramatic 180 in the theme, which didn't resonate well (and probably because anything military was bad bad bad after that).

Ohranger did do poorly though and thus kinda did almost kill it off. Ohranger was an anniversary series and the original idea of the show was to be one big dark war epic. And it started that way and bits of that still remain throughout the show. However unfortunately for Ohranger Japan hit a rough patch and because of events like the Hanshin earthquake and the Sarin gas attacks, people were kinda turned off of anything that was dark, serious, and connected to anything dealing with war, terroism, and invasion. So Ohranger was rewritten a bit and made the show very weird and confused, and thus alienated enough fans that the ratings suffered.
Luckily toy sales helped save the show enough to warrant Carranger, which due to it's popularity for being goofy led to Sentai continuing.
I've always been interested in OhRanger's original premise before the terrorist attacks that caused it to take a massive change in premise and theme.
I'm also rather curious about how bad the quality drops after the change, but I'm more interested in the former.
Don't forget they also have released the first 27 episodes of Gingaman.
As for Sentai, the 90s were the best because they were doing experimentation with the show after Jetman. If it weren't for that, there would be no Zyu, Dai, and Kaku. There would be no Car, Ginga, GoGoV, or Time. It would just be as generic as it was in the 80s had it made it that long.
I love Kakuranger. It's probably 2nd in my heart after Gekiranger.
But aside from being led by White, what were they experimenting with?
