Weird, even though Super Sentai has been a part of pop culture for a lot longer, some of its shows are not yet suitable for the anglophone audience. Power Rangers is mainly different from super sentai due to its more culturally diverse characters and its use of Anglophone references.
Galaxy Star Knights
Ironically the first ones to appear in Super Sentai history, the Galaxy Star Knights are going to be set fifteen years after MegaForce.
LoveHeart Jackers
Among the most interestingly costumed Power Rangers, LoveHeart Jackers are the only ones not to fight giant monsters. Funnily enough, their time was thirty years before the Mighty Morphs appeared, therefore they’d be among the originals.
Battle Fever
Along with Electric Fighters and Sun Vulcan, Battle Fever will be first in the Marvel-Toei trilogy to get adapted into a video game. Unlike almost all power rangers, the Battle Fever team consists of multicultural people, 4 of whom are males but not Americans, except for Miss America. The costumes are also among the most humanised in history.
Electric Rangers
One of the Ishinomori-Marvel gems, Electric Rangers would be set four years after Power Rangers SPD.
Sun Vulcan
Being the second upcoming Power Ranger show in history to retain a Super Sentai name, Sun Vulcan is both a sequel to and a continuation of Electric Rangers.
Hexagon
The first Power Rangers show to feature two teams, one of delinquents and the other of police trainees.
Goggle Rangers
Set sixteen years before SPD and four after Hexagon, the Goggle Rangers are inventive young policemen who would save their world from the net’s most nefarious attacks.
Techno Academy
Even though Maskman is its super Sentai counterpart, the Techno Academy is set fifteen years before the Mighty Morphs.
BioMorphers
Funnily enough, in super Sentai it’s long before Go Busters, but in Power Rangers it’s a few years after Beast Morphers!
Geo Changelings
Consisting of stranded young soldiers, the Geo force finds solace in the magic of morphing into and communicating with creatures.
Train Jackers
Children of LoveHeart Jackers, these guys have strong interest in trains and would like to fight against Wild West monsters in a time of public transport recession.
Electric Flashers
The first Power Rangers team in history to permanently have a double life inside and outside their birth world, they were kidnapped by the Mess Organisation for research, but got saved and then raised by some Flash aliens.
Liveman Heroes
One of the few in history to combine a super sentai name with another, the team consists of five members, two of whom are children of the Techno Academy’s power couple.
Jet Force
Two years before the ZooMan Camp, the Jet Force team consists of five bickering but mostly funny friends, who join forces together in order to save their world with avian magic from habitat loss exacerbated by an illegal logging company in the Andes. They are also the first bilingual team.
Turbo Junior
Set two decades after Power Rangers Turbo, the team consists of the Blue Turbo Ranger’s protégés. They are all high school students like their super sentai counterparts.
Five Force
Five siblings from the Talley family have had their parents killed by monsters invading the Californian heat, but got rescued by and then grew up with aliens in another world called Sidon.
ZooMan Camp
The ZooMan Camp consists of anthropomorphic animals in a preteen book coming to life (with human disguises), in order to surprise a birthday boy whose grandma got killed by the same logging company from Jet Force.
Constellation Knights
The constellation Knights have nine members whose shared motif is Greek mythology.
Fossil Force
A sequel to Dino Charge, Fossil Force’s motif is dinosaurs, even though they are also good archaeologists.
Say hello to new things such as the smokeless Popeye and other around the world innovations!

Nice tidbits
Once upon a time in a far, far away land, Emma Lazarus made poetry within the worthy flowery tongue of light.
Her poems were pretty of values dissonant. They’re wonderfully lippy and crackly.

Cast of Argentine telenovela Teach Me to Live
Clodine / Asai (Violeta Urtizberea): She is the daughter of the Fernández Salguero couple and the true granddaughter of Amanda. She was raised by monkeys in the jungle and is a natural, fresh, tender and wild young woman unaware of evil. Since she cannot speak, she repeats everything she hears.

Lorena Beatriz Benítez / Clodine (Julieta Zylverberg): she is the true daughter of Benítez and Emilia, but after the accident they made Amanda believe that she was her granddaughter.

Amanda (Adela Gleijer): She is Clodine's tender and kind grandmother. After the accident, the Benítez family make her believe her granddaughter is Lorena. Seeing on the news that a girl was found in the jungle, he decides to bring her to the mansion, since he believes she is the daughter of the servants.
Benítez (Jorge Suárez): He is the cruel butler of the Fernández Salguero family mansion, and the true father of the false Clodine. All his life he envied Agustín's economic well-being, but that, he exchanged with the babies after the accident that killed him. When the fake Clodine turns 21 and becomes the heir to the fortune, she plans to reveal her true identity and live like a king. He is Emilia's husband, the maid, and he stays by her side only to prevent her from revealing the whole truth.
Emilia (Patricia Etchegoyen): She is the wife of Benítez and mother of the false Clodine. Although she agreed to the exchange of the babies, she thought that the true heiress had died in the accident. She is very afraid and wants to tell the truth, but her husband does not allow it. Day by day she endures the mistreatment of her daughter, who despises her without knowing that she is actually her mother.
Minerva (Ana María Picchio): She is Amanda's lady-in-waiting, for whom she left her life in the background. She is reckless and does not express herself very well, but she is the only one in the house who dares to face Clodine. Although she closed her heart, she does not know that love will soon come again into her life.
Goyena (Germán Kraus): Correct and always very willing to solve any family issue, he is the attorney for Amanda. Although he is married, he will fall in love with Minerva, and next to her he will be in charge of unmasking Benítez.
Farsa (Pepe Monje): He is a corrupt lawyer who knows the secret of Emilia and Benítez, and is allied with him because he hopes to obtain an economic return when Clodine inherits the fortune.
Cristóbal Linares (Felipe Colombo): He is Lucas's younger brother, with whom he lives. He promised to mature and help with spending, but he can't handle his instincts. He escapes commitments and his weakness is women, until he meets Ro and falls hopelessly in love. Since she constantly ignores him, she resorts to the false Clodine to help him conquer her, promising to intervene so that her older brother can notice her.
Macu (Fernando Dente): He is a handsome young man and in a good position who is hopelessly in love with the false Clodine, but the appearance of Lucas makes the picture more complicated.
Ro (Laura Cymer): She is the best friend of the false Clodine. Although she is not very graceful, she has a very high ego. Together with Clodine, she will make life impossible for Asaí.
Ana (Valeria Lorca): She is the doctor who took care of Asaí when she was brought to Buenos Aires. By a request she is fired from the hospital, and will be in charge of warning Lucas about the dangers Asai is running in the City.
Marcela (Laura Azcurra): She is a teacher and is Lucas's girlfriend. Asaí's appearance will put her relationship at risk, so she will carry out all sorts of macabre plans to keep her at all costs.
