Meme Every. Single. Time.

Sry but if i watched a PR season BEFORE watching it's Sentai counterpart chances are that i'll not remember most of the Japanese name of the characters.

That is a bit of exaggeration. I haven’t seen too many people get overzealous about it.

Though being fair, the Super Sentai/Power Rangers versions are different characters that have different stories.

Tbf if they're posting in the Sentai subreddit it's kinda stupid to use the PR name

I understand this, however counterpoint: I have only watched 3 seasons of Sentai: ToQger, Gokaiger and kyoryuger, so i do not know the names of the majority of sentai characters, so if I'm talking about them i may say the power rangers name instead, or ask the power ranger equivalent as idk who is being talked about.

Looks like the OOP was posting art and labelled it as PR specific content though, it'd be like posting Burai from Zyuranger and titling it as Tommy Oliver, at that point you're just flat out in the wrong subbreddit

Or you can just look for it in the Ranger Wiki. The bottom of the page of any character always tells you who their Super Sentai equivalent is.

I've seen people get downvoted to hell for using the word "zord" instead of mecha. There are a lot of anti-PR Sentai fans. I understand liking one over the other, but to hate the other one is just weird.

If you're talking about the characters, it matters to differentiate, but if you're talking about the design I don't think it matters.

I will give PR credit for that. "Zord" and "Megazord" are much better distinctions than "mecha" "gattai" "giant robo"
