- Americans Hate Tingle: Bei Miao (Mike in English dub) is hated by American fans, for being Jerkass toward his other teammates.
- Awesome Music: Armor Hero has plenty of awesome soundtrack!
- Badass Decay: Two Armor Heroes of XT, Mars and Aero are well-regarded as some of the iconic Armor Heroes ever existed in history. Their return in Hunter wasn't well-received, whereas they ended up being beaten up so easily by the new villains of the said entry.
- Critical Backlash: The most recent entry, Star Ray is not safe from the mass criticisms from the fanbase, due to various factors such as the usage of AI to create the opening song, poor special effects, and more negative aspects of the show. The fact that Star Ray also resulted in one of the production companies Herobox, receiving harsh criticism for the behind-the-scenes issues and meddling, which resulted in the messy result of the show overall.
- So Bad, It's Good: The English dub has hilariously stale voice acting that sounds like the voice actors are bored out of their minds.
- They Copied It, So It Sucks!: A few tokusatsu fans claim that Armor Hero is a rip-off of Kamen Rider, due to the similar elements and formula featured.
- The monsters designs of Armor Hero Lava and Captor suffers from this problem. While the hero designs are well-known and liked, the monsters on the other hand looked somewhat unoriginal in terms of design choice:
- Some Ocasers and the villain generals has copied designs from the design works by Yasushi Nirasawa for the Undeads, Worms, and Imagins
- Also, some of Captor's zombie puppets heavily resemble either the Kamen Riders' monsters like Dopants, Greeed & Yummies and Zodiarts.
- It is recently known that the Nether Legion generals (Amix, Joseph, Cuffs, and Lucius) from Armor Hero XT's designs are taken from two online games Atlantica Online and Soul of the Ultimate Nation respectively without permission from the creators of the game.
