The plot involves the three Warner siblings, Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, defending the Warner Bros. studio lot from a giant bug created by a Rita Repulsa lookalike.

The episode also utilizes theme music similar to that used in MMPR. In addition, the episode pokes fun at the morality of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers by having the normally mischievous Warner siblings randomly handing out bags of money.

Megagourd, the spoof of the Megazord.

The popular Youtube channel, The Annoying Orange, made a spoof of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in four videos featuring the Sour Rangers, a team of sour gummy kids based on the candy Sour Patch Kids. They piloted robotic Gourds in place of Zords, which could combine into Megagourd, who fought with lightning rays and with the mighty Power Knife, a spoof of the Megazord's Power Sword. In their first appearance, they fought Marshmallow's evil cousin, Marshageddon, who was armed with a raygun and wore a headpiece based on that of Rita Repulsa.

In their second appearance, they fought Lord Bread, a spoof of Lord Zedd, who was armed with a pretzel staff that fired energy beams. Their third appearance saw them battle evil forces at Comic-Corn (a parody of Comic-Con). Their fourth and most recent appearance saw them in a parody of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, where they battle Chivan Stews (a parody of Ivan Ooze), with the help of new powers granted by Dorcea (parody of Dulcea; voiced by Ciara Hanna, who portrayed Gia Moran in Power Rangers Megaforce). Some main characters in the series took the roles of supporting characters from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers; Orange became a parody of Zordon and was called Oron, Midget Apple spoofed Alpha 5 and became Midget Apple 5, and Grapefruit took the role of Ernie, whose juice bar was destroyed by Megagourd in battle.

In a similar case, in an episode of Ask Orange, a video series where Orange responds to fan-submitted questions and comments, Orange, Marshmallow, Midget Apple, Grapefruit, and Pear morph into Rangers, referencing Mighty Morphin, Time Force, Dino Thunder, Megaforce, and Beast Morphers, respectively, with their morph sequences. Orange's Zord is Orange Orangutan, Marshmallow's Zord is Marshmallow Mastadon, Midget Apple's Zord is Apple Alligator, Grapefruit's Zord is Grapefruit Great-White, and Pear's Zord is Pear Pear.

Additionally, in a HOW2 episode, Lord Bread made a cameo.

Like Power Rangers/Super Sentai, each member is referred by their respected colors, with Red as leader, as well as they each have their own separate skills, arsenal, personalities and capabilities which are boosted from a strict diet of Vita-Z Bananas, special bananas that can genetically enhance whoever eats them.

Sebastian Hernandez and Ignacio, after a tough day at school, create a fantastical reality in Ignacio's blanket fort. They imagine turning into Power Rangers to fight off their bullies and later battling a supervillain named Sharita Repulsa (A very obvious parody of Rita Repulsa). In their imaginative play, they face numerous whimsical scenarios, including building a giant robot from the blanket fort. Ultimately, it’s revealed that the boys were playing with toys in the fort all along. Their adventure concludes happily when Ignacio’s dad announces they’re having tacos for dinner, much to their excitement.

Go Go Dagwon Rangers

The Dagwon team

Dagwon, the seventh entry in Takara Tomy and Sunrise's Brave series, is heavily influenced by Super Sentai and in some aspects, Ultraman. It centers around a group of teens chosen by an alien police officer to become the defenders of Earth after the wardens of a space prison rebel and hijack it to unleash the most dangerous alien criminals to attack the planet. The heroes use special braces to become armored superheroes upon the call of "Try Dagwon!" and pilot their own robots by fusing with them. The robots all combine with other mechs into stronger robots in specific configurations for each team member.

Bug rangers poster

A poster of the Bug Rangers seen in game.

In the game, a group of heroes known as the Bug Rangers are acknowledged at various points through the story, either through their merchandise or NPCs who are fans of the team. Much like those who are portrayed in Power Rangers and Super Sentai, the Bug Rangers are explicitely stated in game to be fictional characters who are portrayed by actors. They are primarily known for their plays, but also have a comic book series as well as a toyline. Kabbu is a huge fan of the Bug Rangers, stating that they "inspire young bugs all over the land."

Team Snakemouth bear a striking resemblence to the Bug Rangers, as both teams consist of a bee, beetle and moth with similar coloring. This is acknowledged when a wasp named Jayde mistakes the team for the Bug Rangers during their initial travel to the Wasp Kingdom.

In the Bugaria Theater, a merchant can sell Kabbu a rare plushie of Bug Ranger Green for 40 berries. The toy can be shown to various NPCs or used in certain in game events for unique dialouge. In the Termite Kingdom, Kabbu is able to give the plushie to a young termite outside of the Colosseum. This event is based on the choice of the player, and no reward is given if the player decides to give the toy to the termite.

Cho Ninjatai Inazuma!Icon-crosswiki[]

Cho Ninjatai Inazuma! (超忍者隊イナズマ! Chō Ninja Tai Inazuma!, Super Ninja Force Lightning!) is a 2006 tokusatsu moive made by Toei. It is about a producer in the year 2076 creating the 100th entry in the Hyper Hero Team Series by going back in time and getting three people from the Edo era of Japan to star in the show. It was followed a year later by Cho Ninjatai Inazuma!! SPARKIcon-crosswiki. It features many actors from Super Sentai, including Atsushi Hashimoto, Hiroya Matsumoto, Asami Kai, Mika Kikuchi, and Yuki Ito.

The Hyper Hero Team Series is an obvious parody of Super Sentai. Additionally, assuming Sentai's schedule remains constant, 2076 will be the year Super Sentai will celebrate its 100th season. Predating Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger, Cho Ninjatai Inazuma! is Toei's first attempt at a parody of their Super Sentai series.

CollegeHumor[]

The video "Zordon is a Racist" spoofs the untinentionally politically incorrect connotations of Zack Taylor being African-American and the Black Ranger as well as Trini Kwan being Asian and the Yellow Ranger by depicting Zordon as a complete bigot who is blatantly appointing Ranger colors to his recruits based on what minority they belong to. After kicking out a second black recruit and a Jewish recruit, the remaining recruits call out Zordon on his bigotry and walk away in disgust.

Moreover, the games true antagonist is her superior, a villain simply named "Z". Z's costume is heavily based off of Lord Zedd's design. Additionally, Z's name could be a reference to the fact that "Zedd" is an alternate pronunciation to the letter "Z".

He has two robots, Robo-Dexo 2000 and 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 and 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[]

Original Universe[]

Dinosaur King[]

Dino Troopers

Dino Troopers from Dinosaur King (Japanese and Dub versions)

In the episode, A Game Show Showdown, there is a show set called Dino Troopers. It was a play on either Power Rangers or Super Sentai. A lone ninja-themed hero is later seen facing the same villain as the Dino Troopers during a live stage show in Ninja Nightmare!. Dinosaurs and ninjas are two of the most commonly recurring team motifs in both Sentai and Rangers, and stage shows that reuse any suits available are also a common staple of the genre.

UFO Rangers

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 particular story came out on August 10th, 1976.

Doraenger

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

Coincidentally, it aired on the same network as Super Sentai and two of the characters (Suneo and Gian) were voiced by the same VAs as the devices of Gokaiger and Kyuranger.

Another sentai team is called Sokuryo Sentai Kirameasure (測量戦隊キラメジャー Sokuryō Sentai Kiramejā) which is similar to the name Kiramagers.

Downtown no Gottsu Ee Kanji[]

Seikimatsu Sentai Gorenjai

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) often stopping for a friendly chat with the lady's friend before attacking the lady (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.

The Ginyu Force (Ginyu Tokusentai/Special Squad) that serve as the henchman for their 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. Turns out in the fighting game Dragon Ball FighterZ that Ginyu Force’s posing is the main reason why Gohan become the superhero Great Saiyaman. In the video game Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, which uncover the untold stories that are not in either manga nor anime, the Ginyu Force use to have had a sixth ranger, who is a female.

One of the plans for the DLC expansions of the game Final Fantasy XV was the Magitek Exosuit, multi-colored Sentai-like armors that would enhance the four different characters of the game. This suit gives the player invincibility for 30 minutes and improves fishing, but can only be used once every 24 hours.

However, their original design was too similar to the costumes of the 2017 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie and Saban threatened to sue Square Enix if they did not change it. This resulted in the Magitek Exosuit DLC being delayed until the suits could be re-designed. Fans reacted negatively to Saban's copyright claim as it ruined a pre-determined DLC release that players were waiting for.[3].

France FiveIcon-crosswiki[]

FranceFiveLogo

France Five official picture.

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. It became extremely popular in Japan and Akira Kushida even sang a new theme song for it that was used in the show's last three episode.

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.

Killer 7[]

Handsomemenlineup

The Handsome Men

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” Tokumei Shioki Sentai Hansamuman) 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.

The King of Fighters[]

Only in The King of Fighters '97 and '98, Ralf Jones and Clark Still have a special intro in which they both do the Cross Changer pose. This is likely a nod to Chojin Sentai Jetman in which they use this pose to transform.
