All three have still maintained some popularity. I'm doing rankings since I assume Pokemon will dominate. Power Rangers has been more consistent than TMNT, but seems to have lower highs.

As a franchise, Pokmon is in a different league to the others.

This, and I hate Pokmon. Its just Shin Megami Tensei but with cute baby monsters instead of cool demons.

This, grated Power Rangers probably trumps the two in how many series alone it has. Turtles tend to come and go more randomly and Pokemon is Pokemon

Pokemon IIRC is the most profitable franchise of all time so it's the clear winner.

TMNT does well though, there's pretty much always a show or movie in production.

Power Rangers is still around but IDK how successful it is, seems like it's nowhere near as big as the other two but I'm pretty sure it's still a big money maker

Pokemon > TMNT > Power Rangers

Pokemon is one of the biggest media franchises in the world.

TNNT is probably more identifiable than Pokemon, but has lulls between reboots. Its media success is kind of all over the place.

Power Rangers has been niche for decades, and most people wouldn't be able to name any of the characters since MMPR/Zeo.

how did you come up with this big 3?

TMNT started in the late 80s
Power Rangers was early 90s
Pokemon craze happened in 1998-1999

Why not Batman TAS for example?
Or Dragonball Z ?
Ghostbusters and on and on

Was expecting Bleach/Naruto/One Piece or something.

To which, One Piece > the other two as its been going forever and thus is pretty much always relevant, even if the western fandom is dwarfed by the Japanese one. Naruto finished and is now on its sequel series, which generally is pretty hit and miss even among Naruto fans. Bleach was mostly absent until recently when they started animating and airing the last arc.

This is what I was expecting too, and youre not wrong. One Piece is also just consistently higher quality than the other two.

Nah between TV shows, video games, movies and comics, the TMNT franchise stays pretty active.

Is TMNT being rated higher than Power Rangers just because there's a new movie out, or is it actually a more successful franchise than Power Rangers?

I think its more successful in terms of what it presents. Outside crossovers and Jason coming in to be Tommy really the first five seasons are the bulk of an ongoing story.

Right? Like how is this even fair? No one from that era cares about anything but MMPR, and the Turtles are still everywhere lately. Pokmon is the highest selling franchise in history so that's an obvious number 1.

Pokemon
Power Rangers
Ninja Turtles

Just check how much the latest TMNT movie has made in the box office PR came out like 2017-2018 or so and has made more than TMNT

Nah. I firmly believe that TMNT has done a better job at remaining relevant.

TMNT has been out 5 days. You can't compare it to a movie that came out 7 years ago.

A better comparison would've been TMNT: Out of the Shadows from 2016. That and Power Rangers (2017) both made between $82-85 million Domestically, and TMNT blew it out of the water internationally ($163 Mil vs $56 Mil).

Once Mutant Mayhem gets widespread international distribution, it will also surpass the 2017 Power Rangers movie.

Pokemon has been consistently hugely popular for decades now. TMNT has its periodic reboots but people are still hung up on that late 80s version despite pretty much every reboot being superior (except for the Bay version). Power Rangers isn't really relevant any more.

I mean if you ignore the recent anniversary Power Rangers movie they did and the fact the show is running and still releasing toys.

That's odd.

My kids were born in 06 and 08, my nephews in 03 and 06.

None of them give a crap about the Power Rangers, but all 4 of them went to see TMNT on Sunday.

I honestly don't know a single person under the age of 30 that watch/are a fan of the Power Rangers.
