AKRangers
In the AKB48's show (AKBINGO!), they have a segment called the 48 second Sentai AKRanger (48秒戦隊： AKRanger) where the team must finish a certain challenge in 48 seconds to save the hostage (usually played by Atsuko Maeda) from White Satan.

Veggie Rangers
In their latest television ad for Kagome’s vegetable juice, “Yasai Ichinichi Kore Ippon”, idol group AKB48 is seen transforming to “Balance Sentai Veggie Rangers.” It began airing June 9, 2012.

In the commercials, the 30 members of AKB48 fight for justice and rescue citizens from unhealthy diets, complete with fighting poses, transformation CG and a giant robot! The outfits were designed by Trigun's Yasuhiro Nightow.

The first commercial started when the AKB48 members found an office lady (played by Atsuko Maeda) that is about to eat a whole bench full of hotdogs and fried chickens for lunch. They immediately transform into “Veggie Rangers,” and hand her the vegetable juice, saving her from an unbalanced diet.

ALDNOAH.ZERO

The overall look of them is a fusion of the costumes of Bioman and Sun Vulcan with a bird logo emerging from the brace when transforming and behind them after posing like the Jetmen.

AMD Radeon graphics card advert
Advert for AMD's XFX Radeon R7970 graphics card. References MMPR, Zordon, and in particular, the episode "Day of the Dumpster".

The Adventures of Hello Kitty and Friends
In the 2-part episode of "The Fabulous Five", Hello Kitty and her four friends became superheroes, and they are called the Fabulous Five and they will face the evil ogami. In 1975 started by Sanrio from Japan along with Super Sentai Series started by Toei as well.

American Dad
In the Halloween-themed third episode of American Dad season 6, Best Little Horror House in Langley Falls, a boy is seen dressed as the Blue Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger (Zyuranger's TriceraRanger), although the helmet is more similar to the Red Ranger (TyrannoRanger)

Amino Supli
A parody of Himitsu Sentai Gorenger was presented as a series of Commercials for the Japanese Energy Drink "Amino Supli", the Main Mascots of this Ad Campaign are the Silly, & Wacky looking Ranger team. T-shit commercials after the 27 Years ago Akaranger's fat and the other four are normal.

Animaniacs
The popular kids cartoon show Animaniacs did a spoof of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in an episode called "Super Strong Warner Siblings". The plot involves the three Warner Siblings, Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, defending the Warner Brothers Studio lot from a giant bug created by a Rita Repulsa lookalike (coincidentally voiced by Barbara Goodson). They defeat the monster, but end up destroying the Studio lot in the process (which parodies all the Megazord fights in the show, where many buildings in Angel Grove get destroyed). The episode ends with a health warning to children about "playing with giant bugs." The episode also features the Command Center and Dr. Scratchensniff in the role of Zordon, but unfortunately, there is no equivalent for Alpha 5.

In addition, Dr. Scratchansniff parodies Zordon, Rita Repulsa parodies herself, a humanoid pig parodies Goldar (but looks more like Mordant from the first movie), a Scottish coyote parodies Baboo, and a green alien parodies Finster. Rita's Warriors - stick figures wearing white jumpsuits and giant glasses - parody the Putty Patrollers. The Warner Brothers Water Tower parodies the Megazord. However, again, there is no parody or equivalent for Alpha.

Other parody elements include the Warner Siblings constantly shouting "Right!" at random moments (including the moments in which they would actually say it), Rita protesting that "This never works!" after her monster is defeated (making fun of the show's monster-of-the-week motif she and Zedd use on the show), and an irate Mr. Plotz complaining about how much it's going to cost him to repair the damage to his studio (pointing out MMPR's tendency to ignore the excessive destruction wreaked on Angel Grove in every episode). The episode also utilizes theme music similar to that used in MMPR.

The irony of this episode is that the 3-member team consisting of Red, Blue, and Yellow Rangers did not happen until Power Rangers: Ninja Storm, which was the first Power Rangers show that aired after Disney (Warner Brothers' main rival) acquired the franchise from Saban. Super Sentai has done this motif even before Power Rangers starting with Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan and Choujuu Sentai Liveman.

Arthur
The first time was during the episode, "Arthur's Tooth", when the class was learning about teeth by watching an educational video. A team of four heroes called the Flighty Fluoride Scour Rangers (an obvious nod to MMPR) were fighting a monster who was trying to damage a set of teeth from the inside.

The second was in the episode, "Attack of the Turbo Tibbles". This episode had seen a TV show called "Terrific Turbo-Trooper Toy T-Bot Team". The heroes wear uniforms with a MMPR-like theme, though the TV show title resembled Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad and had hand signatures similar to Ultraman.

Atomic Betty
The first part of the seventeenth episode of Atomic Betty is called Power Arrangers.

In the sixth and last episode of the first season of the comedy about three immature flatmates, there is a flashback to their schooldays where Ben is dressed as the Blue Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger (Zyuranger's TriceraRanger). Reminiscing about this in the present day, Ben notes "Dressing as the Blue Power Ranger for PE, what an idiot. Everyone knows the Red Ranger's the fastest."

Balala and the Fairies
Since 2008 started with the chinese Magical Girl with the two twin sisters and their friends and with the prince to use their magical powers to defeat from the dark magic to save the world. They are very similar to Power Rangers/Super Sentai and could be considered a "clone" of Pretty Cure. Like Mahou Sentai Magiranger in the magical rainbow land followed by Magitopia. And the fourth season in 2016 they put Balala the Fairies: Over the Rainbow, they will have a trio of three girls with Red, Blue and Yellow follow as Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan, Choujuu Sentai Liveman, Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger, Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger, Juken Sentai Gekiranger, Engine Sentai Go-Onger, Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters and Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger like they use their strong Colorful magic powers.

Bakugan: Battle Brawlers
During the second, third, and fourth seasons of the anime Bakugan: Battle Brawlers, new combinations of the Bakugan were revealed, and were called Ultimate Weapon Formations. They are very similar to the Mecha and Zords.

Batman Incorporated
In Batman Incorporated #11, Jiro Osamu, the Batman of Japan, fights a gang of female bikers in colored leather outfits who work for Lady Tiger Fist. When they prepare to fight Batman, they perform a variety of poses that resemble the Zyurangers/Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers poses.

They will invite the main character, Sagi, to join them, and if you accept then after some dialogue you will receive the "Toy Sword" or the "Real-Deal Helmet", depending when in the game you play with them (The "Real-Deal Helmet" resembles a Sentai/Power Ranger helmet).

On Day 62 (Tuesday June 13th), Gina commented in the Diary Room, "I feel like a Power Ranger."

Big Hero 6
The CGI animated Disney film based on the Marvel Comics property features a Japanese themed superhero team of 5 kids in multi-colored high-tech outfits, and a robot. The Big Hero 6 movie also has references to Japanese pop culture; as the target audience for the original comic book was manga readers and fans of anime. In a brief scene in the film, among the toys and collectibles in Fred's room, there is a red case featuring different Sentai masks.

Bihada Sentai Sparanger
Toei has also parodied their work by using it in a series of shorts on various spas and onsen (hot springs) around Japan as the Bihada (Handsome Muscle Spring) Sentai Sparanger. This series has tokusatsu actors such as Takashi Hagino ( and of ) as SpaRed, Kento Handa  as SpaBlue, Kengo Ohkuchi (Z in Ressha Sentai ToQger) as SpaGreen, Masashi Meikami (BoukenBlue) as SpaYellow, and Kohei Murakami  as SpaMurasaki ("purple" or "violet" in Japanese, a running joke would involve people referring to him as SpaPurple).

Bionicle
In several toylines, the Bionicle sets features all Toa Teams composed of 6 (though if referred to many storylines, some are more than 6) members, each of different color and element. Like the Super Sentai, it traditions with females are the least gender in the member. One example of a Toa Team, the Toa Nuva was shown to have honorary members such as Toa Takanuva and Toa Ignika. Thus, the two latter seemed as an equivalent of Sixth Sentai and Bangai Heroes.

Bleach
Karakura-Raizer Team is a team of superheroes created by Kisuke Urahara to help protect Karakura Town from Hollow attacks.

Additionally in the earlier filler episodes of the anime, a similar superhero team called the Karakura Superheroes were set up by Don Kanonji to help protect Karakura Town as Ichigo and his friends were busy rescuing Rukia Kuchiki from the Soul Society. Much like Super Sentai they were given different colors and would do different traditional poses when introducing themselves. However as both Karin Kurosaki and Jinta Hanakari would constantly fight over who would by Karakura Red, it led to the team disbanding.

Ururu Tsumugiya, Don Kanonji, and Kon are the only characters to have served on both teams (though Kon was not in Ichigo's body during the Karakura Superhero event).

Ichigo Kurosaki's English dub voice is provided by Johnny Yong Bosch, who played Adam Park, while his original Japanese voice is provided by Masakazu Morita, who (ironically) voiced Debo Tanabanta.

In the Blue Exorcist movie, there is a scene where a blue Gokai Silver Gold Mode mask is seen.

The show once spoofed Power Rangers with their own version of Flower ArRangers.

Among those from Super Sentai featured in the short was Dyna Robo battling and losing to the Daicon bunnygirl mascot, Jaguar Vulcan colliding into Mougera from the Godzilla franchise and the Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan team doing their battle poses, followed by Prince Megiddo and Princess Chimera eating rice balls.

A recent issue of The Dandy featured a Madvertisement spoof of MMPR called Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers.

DC Comics' Blackest Night
Some of the most popular heroes and villains of the DC Universe, in the arc Blackest Night, were made into deputy lanterns of the six other colors of the lantern powers and fought alongside Green Lantern. Their appearance in the comics as well as their dominance of one entire wave of DC Universe Classics figures have sparked fan comparisons to Power Rangers.

In the Brightest Day storyline, a comic series called Green Lantern: The New Guardians, a new team was assembled with a similar arrangement:

In the New 52 line, with the reboot of the DC Universe, the New Guardians' formation was almost entirely rearranged:

Detroit Metal City
The vulgar comedy manga featured the "Seigi Sentai Victory Three" performing on an amusement park's stage show until Johannes Krauser II, the leader of the eponymous death metal band, appeared. A kid among the audience mistook Krauser for a kaijin and began attacking him. Victory Red, actually one of DMC's most hardcore fans working to earn for concert tickets, joined his idol in the harassment.

A three-man team like Sun Vulcan, the costumes of the "Seigi Sentai" bears resemblence to those from Gorenger.

Devil Summoner
In the Megami Tensei franchise, Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers has the Frost Five. They belong to the Ranger race.

Dexter's Laboratory
In Dexter's Laboratory, the Super Sentai and the Power Rangers shows are parodied in different episodes. Like, in "Big Sister" and "Last But Not Beast", both episodes have giant monster battles that parody the ones in Super Sentai and Power Rangers. Also in "Last But Not Beast", Dexter has a poster of a Super Sentai/Power Rangers like team in his bedroom. He has 2 robots, Robo-Dexo 2000 & Multi-Forming Megabot (which has a finisher, as well as 4 pieces to form the robot: a helicopter, jet, van, and boat). Both are parodies of Super Sentai Robos & Power Rangers Megazords. Also, in "Last But Not Beast" the song "Dexter's Family Go" also parodies Go Go Power Rangers. In the episode "Sister Mom", just before Dexter activates the machine he uses to turn DeeDee into their mother, he says "It's Morphin Time!".

Digimon: The Movie
In the English dub, Kari says she got her friend a Pink Ranger Action Figure for her birthday.

Doctor Who
Though not referenced in show, the re-design of the Daleks as introduced in 2010, has caused some fans to compare them to Power Rangers/Super Sentai, giving them nicknames such as the "Mighty Morphin' Dalek Rangers" and "Extermination Sentai Dalekranger", as they have a color code with five ranks:

A toy Daijinryuu/Serpentera and a toy TimeRobo Shadow Alpha/Shadow Force Megazord Mode Red can be seen at some point during Series 6 episode 9, Night Terrors.

Doraemon
In one chapter of the long running manga series, Nobita and Doraemon watch TV and an image of a Sentai show called "UFO Rangers" appears on the screen before they decide to go outside and play. The UFO Rangers bear an uncanny resemblance to J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai, which coincidentally was still on the air at the time this particualr story came out on August 10th, 1976.

In the opening panel of one manga chapter, Doraemon witnesses a film crew shooting what seems to be a Gorenger movie.

Downtown no Gottsu Ee Kanji
In this show, there was a recurring sketch named Seikimatsu Sentai Gorenjai. Translating to English as End of Century Heroes Five Range-i, it is a parody of Himitsu Sentai Gorenger -- the last syllable in renjaa ("ranger") is replaced to avoid copyright issues. Each episode begins with the evil Dokuro Kamen ("Skull Mask", played by Hamada) attacking a woman (played by You) in her home. The sentai heroes, the five renjai, then burst into the scene one at a time to save her and attempt to fight Dokuro Kamen, who is too distracted and unable to fight due to their appearances.

In the first episode, they have three red renjai and two yellow (breaking the usual sentai convention of having each hero in a different color). Dokuro Kamen lectures them and tells them to try better next time. Each subsequent episode has Dokuro Kamen attacking the same woman in the same room (often stopping for a friendly chat with the lady's friend before he attacks her), and the renjai appearing in mismatched costumes -- such as Tiger Mask, Falkor, and a waitress from a No-pan Shabu shabu-- or ridiculously modified versions of their uniforms. The episodes end with Dokuro Kamen scolding the renjai, pointing out exactly what is wrong, and sending them off home.

Dragon Ball Z
The Ginyu Force (Ginyu Tokusentai/Special Squad) that serve as the henchman for the villain Frieza in the anime and manga series Dragon Ball Z often do Super Sentai based poses when they introduce themselves. They also have have different colors based on their skin. Notably when Captain Ginyu later faced Goku, not only did Goku imitate the pose, he also made a note that doing the pose was a big waste of time that angered Ginyu as a result.

Dragonman
Dragonman (ドラゴンマン) is a set of 'local heroes' loosely based on the Super Sentai and the Power Rangers series. As local heroes, they engage in advocacies and perform live.

Eight Ranger
Eight Ranger is a 2012 film that they have the seven core team like Ressha Sentai ToQger and Shuriken Sentai Ninninger. And this is a parody of Super Sentai.

The Episode of Fish Hooks: Fish Out of Water

Force rose etc.
Virgin Mary, new pop icon Force rose etc. (Pink Power etc., as French dub of Sentai called each Ranger "[Color] Force") is an artist rendition, customizing Virgin Mary figures with Choudenshi Bioman outfits, but keeping the dress. Contrary to most Sentai conventions, Pink Ranger is in front.

France Five


Shin Kenjushi France Five (translated as New Sword Musketeers France Five), is a French affectionate parody of the Sentai genre. Its heroes have names which are major clichés about French life, especially food.

Because producers where unsure how far the project could go, first episode was written as a typical mid-season episode (actually, first sixth ranger appearance) rather than a real introduction. However, after a 8-years hiatus, it ended with a real final. Color pattern, including sixth ranger, is exactly the same as Denji Sentai Megaranger/Power Rangers in Space.

Futurama

Gaia Online

Grand Theft Auto V
The Kung Fu Rainbow Lazerforce is a tv show that is within the game Grand Theft Auto V in the Grand Theft Auto franchise. It is a parody of both the Super Sentai & the Power Rangers and is aired on its TV network Weazel, which is a parody of Fox, the network that first aired the Power Rangers from 1993 through 2002 on its Fox Kids block. Its title parodies Power Rangers Megaforce with a theme of conservative "family values", such as sex after marriage, unflinching belief in God and homophobia.

Genki Bakuhatsu Ganbaruger
Ganbaruger is a 1992 mecha series animated by Sunrise and is the second entry of the Eldran Series, a short lived franchise to promote Tomy toys that competed against the more popular Brave Series of mecha shows/toyline by Takara which was also animated by Sunrise. The difference was that the Brave series mostly used vehicle mechs while Eldran's were animal themed, both motifs a staple of Super Sentai mechas at the time of this series airing.

The show features a trio of young kid superheroes called the Ganbar Team who must battle evil demons who want to rule the Earth. They do so by calling upon three animal mechs, (an eagle, an elephant and a tiger) and then transform into their superhero identities using special braces that call upon their Ganbare Suits.

The mechas in the show can change into a humanoid combat mode (making the anime precede Dairanger on this concept) or combine into the titular Ganbaruger. Despite the Sun Vulcan-esque line up of Red, Blue and Yellow, Ganbar Yellow is the leader of the team and main pilot of Ganbaruger instead of the traditional Red.

In an unusual coincidence, the main ninja mentors of both The Ganbar Team and the Hurricanger/Ninja Storm Rangers are transformed into talking animals (a dog and a hamster/guinea pig) and are stuck in that form until the final episode.

Girls und Panzer
In the 6th OVA, the girls dress up in Sentai costumes and do the kata roll call poses of the Dairangers, dubbing themselves as the Panzer 5.

Albeit, the rollcall is notably out of order, going from Green to Blue to Black (the only switched color) to Pink to Red.

Johranger

They have a color scheme of Red, Blue, Yellow, Pink, but rather than the usual Green or Black, the fifth Ranger has a rather over the top costume. special fifth Ranger. The first commercial shows a monster causing havoc, the Johrangers spring into action and henshin. The team then notice that one of their members has an abnormal outfit. The Red Ranger says how they agreed that they wouldn't wear that suit and asks the Pink Ranger if she had phoned him about that. The fifth Ranger then storms off and leaves the team.

Keroro Gunsou
The series makes multiple references to Super Sentai/ Power Rangers throughout the series, including their own Giant Robo called Great Keron. In one episode, Keroro even went off to see a live stage show.

In the 2005 video game killer7 by Capcom (released for the Nintendo GameCube and PlayStation 2), the Punishing Rangers Handsome Men (匿名仕置戦隊 “ハンサムマン”) were developed by the US military in order to combat the global Heaven Smile threat. In addition to being an official assassin organization, the Handsome Men are also featured as characters in a comic book created by Trevor Pearlharbor and published by ZTT Comics. When the real-world group appears and begins to carry out the stories he writes in reality, Pearlharbor believes himself to be controlling them; in actuality, he is only a seer, and his comics are simply predictions of what they will do. LOVE Wilcox, a teenage girl and participant in the underground Internet, may be the actual coordinator of the Handsome Men's actions.

A television news announcement reports that a group resembling the comic book characters has assassinated Democratic Party member Steve Thunderson during a meeting of Congress. As a result, Mills dispatches the Killer 7 to kill Pearlharbor, who is writing their adventures into his comics in the week preceding their actual actions, and therefore appears to be controlling them, or at least some sort of terrorist. The Killer 7 tracks Pearlharbor to his studio in the Dominican Republic, where he is in the midst of drawing a scene of himself killing Dan Smith, and thus believes he cannot die. However, Handsome Black suddenly appears and fires his Handsome Wink at Dan, who successfully dodges; the attack hits Pearlharbor, killing him.

Dan kills Handsome Black in retaliation; Handsome Red appears on the scene and, surveying it, concludes that Dan killed both Pearlharbor and Black unprovoked. He calls for a revenge match to determine which of the groups is stronger, naming Broadway, New York as the site of the challenge. A series of one-on-one matches ensues:
 * Harman Smith kills Handsome Red with his rifle.
 * Handsome White Pearl outshoots Con Smith.
 * Coyote Smith shoots and kills Handsome Gold.
 * Handsome Light Brown shoots KAEDE Smith as she reloads.
 * Handsome Dead beats Kevin Smith when his knife throws miss.
 * Dan Smith shoots Handsome Blue in the head.
 * Handsome Purple seemingly defeats MASK de Smith, but the latter is suddenly reborn in a more stylized luchadore outfit and with more powerful, faster-firing grenade launchers, and kills Purple with a charged shot.
 * As Garcian Smith is about to fight Handsome Pink, however, she suddenly transforms into the shape of LOVE Wilcox, and the two call a truce. She tells him that she "wrote the story," and seems to believe that the company she works for, Electro Inline Inc., was responsible for her mentor Pearlharbor's death.

In episode 21 of Kill la Kill, Mako Mankanshoku makes a reference to Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger/Power Rangers Dino Thunder, when she tried to reason with Ryūko Matoi by quoting part of the Abaranger theme. She also did the Abarangers'/Dino Thunder Rangers' roll call posing with the spikes that are common in Abarangers' Abare Mode/Dino Thunder Rangers' Super Dino Mode. At her right side of her waist, there is also a gun that is similar to the AbaLasers/Thundermax Blasters.

League of Super Evil
In The YTV Series, League of Super Evil, A group of heroes are named as Force Fighters V who protects Metrotown from the forces of Evil. They were the first super hero team that the League of Super Evil "unintentionally" defeated when they hijacked Commander Chaos' robot fighter (though Doomageddon really caused their victory). They're the only other group in the series to have their own logo be displayed. Voltar, so far, is the only one who noticed it though. In Metrotown's theater, a poster with their logo can be seen, implying they are renowned enough to have their own movie. They are an obvious parody of Super Sentai (Power Rangers, as they are known in America), and they share similarities to other mecha-using heroes like Voltron.

Legend of Black Heaven
Within the series, main character Oji "Gabriel" Tanaka's son Gen is obsessed with the in-fiction show UFO Rangers Flying Five.
