Hahahahaaa,the Rider secrets are coming next~

The one on the left is Abaranger (2003) and the one on the right is Go-Busters (2012). Abaranger was adapted into Dino Thunder (seriously, I was so disappointed in JDF coming back that I was 100% unable to judge Dino Thunder on its own merits); Go-Busters got no adaptation.

Abaranger is a dinosaur series; the gist of the story is that Earth was split into two by a meteor 65 million years ago. On our Earth (aka Another Earth), dinosaurs died out. On Dino Earth, weird shit happened. (I realize that this was the plot of the Super Mario Brothers movie. I also realize that this makes Asuka Princess Peach. I find this hilarious.) Dino Earth gets an apocalypse in the form of a bunch of demons, the remnants of society build some cool shit, and then the one guy who has the ability to use it gets punted over to Another Earth as the demons try to invade over there, too. Series start. (Fair warning, the CGI is awful. It was 2003. Try not to judge too harshly.) Keep in mind that there is a SHIT TON of absolutely ridiculous, and then there are some of the darkest themes in Super Sentai before or since (this happens around episode 30, when the entire series does a Face Heel Turn).

Go-Busters is a spy series; in 1999, a bunch of researchers were dragged into hyperspace by what essentially amounted to a digital god. They managed to get three of the kids in the building out by infecting them with a nanobot vaccine that gave the kids superpowers and also the ability to psychically link to a specific robot. Fast-forward to 2012 and the company sponsoring the research has been training these kids as secret agent superheroes for the past 13 years so that when the digital god figures out how to send things out of hyperspace, the kids can go kick the shit out of them (Ttey're 16, 20, and 28 as of the series start). The tone of this one is a bit more, ah, even than Abaranger, but it also has some dark themes by the time the eight-episode-long finale rolls around. It also tried to demonstrate a more realistic tone (they showed the support staff it takes to keep the mechas operational, for example), but there was also a fair bit of slapstick comedy.
