Despite only having a few episodes out, Go! Go! Loser Ranger! has already entered the running for anime of the season. The popular series is based on the famous manga written by Negi Haruba. The series follows Footsoldier D, a member of the evil organization who tried to enslave the earth. However, they are defeated by the dragon keepers and forced to put up fake reenactments every week.
Foot Soldier D vows to destroy them by infiltrating the ranger force to destroy it from within. Fans praise the popular anime for putting a unique spin on the Super Sentai genre. Moreover, the anime is an excellent watch for fans looking for a more, darker superhero-themed story. With that said, here are some animes similar to Go! Go! Loser Ranger!
Tiger & Bunny
The anime takes place in its own version of New York City, Stem Bird. 45 years ago, people with powers, called NEXT began popping up, changing the world’s landscape. It follows veteran hero Kaburagi as he is assigned a new partner with the same powers as him, Barnaby. Due to their different views on how a hero should act, they butt heads frequently. However, the two must coexist to uncover the mystery behind Barnaby’s parent’s murder. The story highlights the vices that most people with too much power tend to have.
Symphogear
This popular magical girl series drew much inspiration from Super Sentai with its epic transformations, soundtracks, and fighting style. The anime follows pop idols Tsubasa and Kanade as they battle against aliens using their symphogear, powered by music. After Kanade’s tragic passing while saving Hibiki, the latter inherits Kanade’s powers and teams up with other users to battle the Noise.
The Special Duty Combat Unit Shinesman

The Shinesman are an elite group of heroes tasked with repelling the attacks from the aliens and their leader, Voice.
Love After World Domination
Love After World Domination may seem like a fairy tale compared to the dark and terrifying nature of Go! Go! Loser Ranger!. However, both anime share many similarities. The story takes place in a world where the criminal group Gekko has already destroyed half the world and is looking to kill the other half. However, their plans are thwarted by the Super Sentai squad Freezing Sentai Gelato 5. However, things get complicated when Princess Desumi and the Red Gelato, Fodo, fall in love. Now, the pair must protect their secret from their groups while spending time together.
Sailor Moon
Sailor Moon is arguably one of the most popular animes in the world today. The anime draws many references from the Super Sentai, such as their transformations and fight scenes. The story follows the life of Usagi Tsukino, who meets a magical cat named Luna and is given the ability to transform into a magical girl. Now, she and her fellow Sailor Scouts defend the world from the forces of darkness.
