I really liked this show when I was young and it was ...
I really liked this show when I was young and it was originally on the air. I remembered it fondly. I almost didn't rewatch it because I did not want to ruin those memories and often shows do not hold up to nostalgia.Luckily, I did. This was a fun show. It is well executed. Like Power Rangers, this American show merges action sequences from a Japanese show to mesh with American teenage actors. However, I have the unpopular opinion of thinking that Superhuman Samurai did it better. One of my gripes with both American and Japanese super sentai shows is that toppled buildings often go unnoticed. I hate that in most superhero shows. If a monster and a robot are fighting and topple a building it should be noticed. Only intermittently did anyone in Power Rangers seem to deal with that. Luckily, Superhuman Samurai places the Japanese fight footage inside of a computer system. It makes more sense why it goes unnoticed.Still, like many kid focused shows you have to over look some illogical story elements. Apparently the local high school only has about three rooms. Some of the jokes are lame. Most are still funny.I like that it feels dated. I love that this show shows the misunderstanding of how computers and internet work. That is not a negative but a nice setting detail.This show is not for everyone but clearly, after all these years it is still for me.

The 90's
I don't know how many people actually watched this when they were young, but I watched the show until it stopped airing and wore the VHS out! I couldn't stand the anticipation for this thing. My local stores had almost every CookieJar logo show out except this one, so I ordered it via Amazon, and I'm glad I did! The show is top-notch when it comes to Power Rangers-Like shows and even flows a little better than the Power Rangers in terms of story and action. (Now if I can just get them to re-release the old toys...)If your kid is a Rangers nut and you can't afford the newest DVD set then get him this and he will be rocking to electric metal while an Ultra Man spin-off tears into Godzilla-like creatures in computer circuts. How can you go wrong?

SO glad this is finally on DVD!!!!
I used to wake up before 5:30am to watch this show daily, and LOVED it (I was in my early 20s no less lol). I've had some of the VHS shows that were available from this, and have been waiting for this to be on DVD for SO long now. I've already pre-ordered. This show definitely counts as cheesy, but it's just so much fun, and at the time it came out, was a very unique premise. It's also a load of fun to say the name of it really fast to people who've never seen it ;-) lol. SO excited to get my DVDs - my son will be watching these with me - a new generation of fans =)

Relive 1994 in style!
Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad sees Matt Lawrence in arguably the best role he ever had, fighting digital Megavirus Monsters created by... Tim Curry?! It doesn't get any better than that. Give this show a chance for a true feeling of the care-free 90's at their best. If you were born between 1984 and 1988, this is a must-have. If not, it's something worth seeing as a portrait of what early 90's "computers" were all about in a predominately pre-internet world. It makes Power Rangers look timeless! I highly recommend picking this up for a good laugh and some legitimately (okay, maybe not "legitimately") good storytelling. Grab the DVD set, pour yourself a bowl of cereal and travel back in time.

It goes well with a glass of Bourbon.
I bought this for nostalgia. I used to watch it everyday before school. It's definitely worse than I remember it, but it's not a bad show. The first few episodes were weak, but there is a continuous storyline that is not just monster of the week. For it's time, the battles were actually pretty well done. Some of the Kilokahn logic progressions didn't make sense to me, especially since he is suppose to be a program. Overall, this is now a guilty pleasure of mine. It goes well with a glass of Bourbon.
