   That's not unique to Magiranger alone.  Though I've watched very few   
   sentai episodes before the last two seasons, I'm sure most of the rest   
   of that is the same.  I know most of the henshins in every season used   
   English words, as early as Denjiman, the 4th sentai out of currently 29.   
      
   As far as general English words scattered in Japanese talk, I don't know   
   about Abaranger and back, but Dekaranger had English all over the dang   
   place.  Almost every final attack, Ranger or mecha, used English words.   
     And various times during normal speech, they'd throw in Engrish.   
   Tetsu (Dekabreak, their Omega Ranger) said "Nonsense" all the time.   
   Hoji, Dekablue, said "Perfect" a lot.  Hoji even attempted to say   
   "Unidentified flying object" in English in one episode, and the results   
   were not pretty.
