Maskman joined up with Battle Fever, Denzimen, Sun Vulcan, Goggle-V, Dynamen, Biomen, Changemen, Flashmen, and the Livemen, to stand behind the newest Sentai, the Turborangers, as they faced off against the Hundred Bohma Tribes.

Gokaiger

Years later, the Space Empire Zangyack invaded Earth. This threat was so great that all of the first 34 Super Sentai, including Maskman, were needed to oppose them. The 34 Sentai put up a valiant fight against the ground forces, but when the Zangyack fleet itself attacked them, Akarenger told everyone to combine their powers and save the Earth. This destroyed the Zangyack fleet and resulted in the loss of their powers, which resurfaced as Ranger Keys, that were dispersed throughout the universe.

The keys were collected by AkaRed, and later utilized by the 35th Super Sentai, the Gokaigers, a group of five people from different planets who came to Earth in search of the Greatest Treasure in the Universe. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 1: The Space Pirates Appear The greater power of Maskman was initially taken by Basco ta Jolokia, but was granted to the Gokaigers by Akira after Basco's death. Tvicon TV STORY-Ep. 49: The Greatest Treasure in the Universe After the Gokaigers finally defeated Zangyack, they returned the Ranger Keys before they left Earth to find the second Greatest Treasure in the Universe.

"Maskman!"
―Mobilates' Gokai Change announcement[src]
The Hikari Sentai Maskman Ranger Keys (光戦隊マスクマンレンジャーキー Hikari Sentai Masukuman Renjā Kī) are what became of the Maskmen's powers after they along with the rest of the 34 Super Sentai sacrificed their powers to end the Great Legend War.

Any of these keys allow a Gokaiger to assume the form of any of the Maskmen or charge GokaiOh with Aura Power to initiate the Gokai Aura Galaxy attack. The Greater Power of this Sentai Group was stolen by Basco, but was later retrieved when Basco was defeated after he infused the Greater Power into the Maskman Keys.

Notes

  • In reference to the show itself and the order it appears, Maskman is considered the 11th Super Sentai Season. Later seasons such as Gokaiger and Zenkaiger also consider it the 11th. However, other Shōwa-era material, such as those created circa Liveman refers to it as the 9th team, as confirmed in the first episode of Turboranger, did not consider both Gorenger & J.A.K.Q. Super Sentai seasons, just regular Sentai, due to a lack of giant robots in the Shotaro Ishinomori seasons. Both seasons would later be canonized as Super Sentai seasons during the Heisei era with Ohranger, 7 years after Liveman.
  • The Maskmen were the first team to have an individual mecha for each core member.
    • They are additionally the first team whose powers are supernatural in origin, as opposed to technological, as well as the first team where there are no members with a known surname.
  • Many foreign versions of the show changed the characters' names:
    • Mikaël (Takeru), Kent (Kenta), Allan (Akira), Héléna (Haruka), Barbara (Momoko) and Néoman (Ryo, as X-1 Mask) in French. In addition, the weapons names and transformation commands were changed in the dub: The Laser Magnums and the Turbo Ranger had the prefix Bio added before the names (due to the fact that the Maskmen in the French dub are referred as Bioman), the Great Five was renamed as "Bio-Galaxy Robot," the Shot Bomber was renamed as "Bio-Canon," and the Jet Cannon was translated as "Bio-Surf d'Assaut" (literally, Bio-Assault Surf). The transformation phrase was changed to "Aura suprême!" (literally, Supreme Aura!, which was also the name used in said dub for Aura Power).
    • Takeo (Takeru), Sayaka (Haruka), Keiko (Momoko), and Liu (Ryu) in Brazilian Portuguese, though Kenta and Akira retained their characters' names in the dub.
    • Michael Joe (Takeru), Leonard (Kenta), Adrian (Akira), Eloisa (Haruka), Mary Rose (Momoko), and Roy (Ryo) were the names used in the Filipino dub.
