Trivia
- The previews for series in the website showcase cartoon silhouettes, similar to when Sailor Luna was first previewed for the live action version of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon.
- The series logo bears a striking resemblance to classic sentai logos, most notably that of Himitsu Sentai Goranger.
- The series is a homage to the Super Sentai and the Power Rangers series.
- This series starts with Red, Blue and Yellow, like the official series that it airs alongside (Go-Busters) and six series before it (Sun Vulcan, Liveman, Hurricaneger, Abaranger, Gekiranger and Go-onger).
- Even though this is an unofficial series, it is the first Sentai series in which both the Blue and Yellow Ranger are female, as in the four previous series with female Blue Rangers (Liveman, Jetman, Hurricaneger and Magiranger), the Yellow Ranger was male.
- This is also the first season in which there is more female rangers than the male rangers similar to the Sailor Moon series.
