well thats why im saying perhaps its a different climate now, why not just seperate the kids and the adult? if they cant put 'passion' in anymore then give us late night super sentai with all that in and let the kiddies have tonnes of 'enthusiasm'. maybe its something to do with the people producing the shows?? maybe they just wernt brought up on good enough toku to want to emulate it?? or the writers simply dont have enough experience to write passion?? some of the earlier writers worked on various shows in the industry and lots ofother sentai - Noboru Sugimura worked on 17 sentai!! 9 of which he was the main writer!... maybe nowadays its just down to rookies?? the 80's era and 90's era best acomplish the things youre talking about in my opinion, for sentai at least ,as the feel of it lends itself to the drama and emotion acted with passion -it just doesnt seem out of place despite the fact they then go on to jump about in coloured lycra and fight rubber monsters..but nowadays i think if the same scenes were played in a sentai as in the past it would seem overacted and too dramatic for what reson i do not know at this very moment... im guessing this all changed after Dekaranger and Kamen Rider Kabuto.

what really made me want to watch super sentai in the beginning, was the same thing that keeps me reading naruto. the characters have heart and depth and there is a cool factor. to various things such as the gouraijers and abarekiller. then mixed in with that is the odd occasions where they tug on the old heart strings. I think this is the sort of things that keeps people interested in the sense of 'otaku' as well. this has been made very apparent in some shows like akibaranger and also densha otoko. I think it's this 'passion' that really makes a show. I think akibaranger highlights how this passion and imagination, is the driving force behind a successful show or at least a show an adult would want to watch. is this passion being lost? maybe this passion is being replaced by 'enthusiasm.' .. this type of enthusiasm that kindergarten teachers bring to the table. it's bouncy, it's 'fun' but is it genuine? does it really bring a feeling of hope and positivity?
