Flowerpowerrangers

Flower Power Rangers

A cartoon where an overweight middle-aged man runs an agency where he is hired to impersonate more competent but unavailable heroes. In one episode he and his sidekick replace members of the "Far Out Flower Power Rangers" when two of them, Mason and Willy, get too excited during a jump and go flying all the way to Saturn.

Action Heroine Cheer Fruits

Hinanectar

CF-Hinanectar

In this series, Japan has a system of "Action Heroines" where cities can form teams to perform Tokusatsu stage shows and promote local tourism, complete with national popularity rankings. The protagonists are a group of high school girls who become the official Action Heroines of their hometown of Hinano and try to help revive its failing economy. The group's production team is named the Cheer Fruits, while the name of their stage show is Seika Senshi (Holy Fruit Warriors) Hinanectar.

Terra Green Mana Midorikawa
Sein Blue Yuki Aoyama
Nitro Pink Hatsuri Momoi
Platinum Misaki Shirogane

The remaining members of the Cheer Fruits team have their own Hinanectar uniforms despite the fact that they aren't part of the team within the stage shows; they typically wear the costumes when they perform the show's theme song. In Episode 9, the Cheer Fruits' leader Misaki Shirogane appears on stage as a Sixth Ranger-type character named "Platinum" who wears a white dress rather than a uniform. Roko Kuroki and Kanon Shimura play the show's villains, while Genki Aoyama handles the audio and special effects and doesn't play any role within the show itself.

Locomo Black Roko Kuroki
Deep Purple Kanon Shimura
Blue Genki Aoyama

Because this series was penned by Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger's head writer Naruhisa Arakawa, it contains many references to Super Sentai as well as other tokusatsu franchises including Kamen Rider and Metal Heroes.

Aho Girl

Super Pachi Rangers

In episode 4, Charge! Aho Girl!, the titular character, Yoshiko, takes the three recurring child characters, Nozomi, Mamoru and Tadashi to a hero show featuring Pachi Rangers (パチレンジャー), a sentai team consisting of three members; one blue, one red and one pink. The actor for the villain arrives on stage, taking Nozomi hostage, as the Pachi Rangers don't arrive on cue, Yoshiko decides to fight the villain herself, wearing a red mask, Mamoru and Tadashi also come on stage and Yoshiko gives them blue and yellow masks, declaring themselves to the Super Pachi Rangers, the Red Pachi Rangers watches from backstage, cheering the boys on to defend the girl's future. When the eyecatch for Aho Girl arrives, it resembles the logo for Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive.

Veggie Ranger Robo

The Veggie Ranger Robo.

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

Gobuster x Aldnoah Zero Octantis Type Beta and Hershel Type Epsilon

Martian Kataphrakts and the Vaglass MegaZord's comparisons.

Two of the Martian Kataphrakt mechas, Herschel and Octantis bears resemblances to the Vaglass's MegaZords, MegaZord Epsilon and MegaZord Beta respectively from Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters.

The Amazing World of Gumball

Gumball Rangers

Bro-Squad

In the episode "The Guy", Gumball and Darwin had a fantasy where they transformed into Sentai superheroes called the "Bro-Squad". 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.

In the episode “The Spinoffs”, one of the proposed ideas Rob has for replacing Gumball as the star of the show is a Power Rangers-like show called Techno Power Teenage Warriors. When the main heroes shout “Techno Power Activate!”, a brief modified sound byte of the opening guitar riffs to Go Go Power Rangers can be heard in the background.

American Dad

American Dad Blue Ranger

A kid dressed as the Blue Ranger.

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).

The Rangers

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

Ssswarnersiblings

The Super Strong Warner Siblings.

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 Tress MacNeille with the voice inflections of fellow voice actress Barbara Goodson). They defeat the monster, but end up destroying the Studio lot in the process. The episode ends with a health warning to children about "playing with giant bugs." 

Blue Blowfish Yakko Warner
Red Anteater Wakko Warner
Yellow Platypus Dot Warner

In addition, Dr. Scratchansniff parodies Zordon, Rita Repulsa parodies herself, a humanoid pig parodies Squatt (but looks more like Mordant from the first movie), a Scottish coyote parodies Finster (but vocally sounds similar to Klank), and a green alien parodies Baboo. Rita's Warriors - stick figures wearing white jumpsuits and giant glasses - parody the Putty Patrollers. The Warner Brothers Water Tower parodies the Megazord. However, 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.

The Annoying Orange

Megagourd, the spoof of the Megazord.

The popular Youtube channel, The Annoying Orange, made a spoof of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in two 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. 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.

Terrific Turbo-Trooper Toy T-Bot Team

Scour rangers

Flighty Fluoride Scour Rangers

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.

Badults

Badults Blue Ranger

Ben as the Blue Ranger.

In the sixth and last episode of the first season of the BBC Three 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."

Karakura-Rizer Team

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.

Green Lantern and the Deputy Lanterns of the DC Universe

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.

Dexter's Laboratory

Megabot 1000

The Megabot 1000.

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.

Digimon

In the English dub of the 39th episode of the second season of Digimon, known as Digimon Adventure 02, a news reporter mentions a Power Rangers Arbor Day Special. Later, in the Japanese dub of that same season, in episode 42, one character refers to herself and her group as a "Digimon Sentai" and "DigiRangers".

After Digimon Tamers the third season of the series, Digimon brings with the fourth season called Digimon Frontier which they have their Digivices called D-Tector (D-Scanner in the Japanese version). When they begin to digivolve, Humans transformed into Digimon when they use the beast spirits to transform each form. The motif of elements, stars and planets make it similar to Uchu Sentai Kyuranger.

The team follows as Takuya by Lucky, Koji by Naga Rei, Zoe by Raptor 283, J.P. by Spada, Tommy by Kotaro Sakuma as a child member and Koichi by Champ were followed by the Kyurangers.

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:

White Supreme Dalek
Red Drone Dalek
Blue Strategist Dalek
Yellow Eternal Dalek
Orange Scientist Dalek

A toy Mythical Chi Warrior Won Tiger/White Tigerzord can be seen on a shelf in Mickey's apartment durning Series 1 episode 5, World War Three.

Doraemon

JAKQ in Doraemon

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.

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) 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 Super

Dragon Ball Super, the official sequel to Dragon Ball Z, introduced not one, but two groups in the Universal Survival Arc. The first group is the Pride Troopers of Universe 11, who act like parodies of Super Sentai heroes. While they do not have special colored costumes, they are quite fond of posing and fighting for justice. Their leader, Toppo, is heavily into this, chewing out Android #17 for attacking opponents while transforming.

The second group are the Kamikaze Fireballs of Universe 2, who are parodies of magical girls (and most likely Pretty Cure in particular). They are a three-woman team who fights for love and justice and hold the same love for posing.

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.

In Dynasty Warriors 8, there are DLCs for Shu Dynasty characters which was inspired from Power Rangers/Super Sentai. The 5 characters that got Power Ranger-like costumes are Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Huang Zhou, with a colorset very similar to Engine Sentai Go-Onger / Power Rangers RPM. Liu Bei gets a Ranger commander-type costume. Furthermore, Zhuge Liang and Yue Ying get villain costumes with color schemes very similar to Rita Repulsa from the Power Rangers 2017 movie. Lastly, Wei Yan got a monster-like costume.

In the episode "Fists of Furry", Sharky the Sharkdog is seen watching a parody of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, called Mighty Boring Shower Strangers. The aptly named Shower Strangers are a bunch of people wearing helmets and towels meeting, but not recognizing each other in a shower, after which they are attacked by soap themed monsters.

Also parodied in this episode is the controversy that Power Rangers would promote the use of violence in children, as Sharky is seen hurting himself after imitating the moves he saw in the show.

The team is kind of a spoof of Super Sentai/Power Rangers.

Final Fantasy XV

Exosuit

Magitek Exosuits (Original Design)

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.[1].

Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

During one episode, Will is antagonized by a larger man and he decides to finish the fight, but gets knocked down in a single punch. Lisa comes in and mercilessly beats up the bully. When Will comes to, he finds out Lisa saved him and asks where she learned her fighting moves. Lisa responds: "Well I've been meaning to tell you that ..I'm a..Um.."'

Will then responds with: "A what? A Power Ranger?!"

France Five

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.

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

File:The Ganbare Team.jpg

The Ganbar Team

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.

Ghost in the Shell

A tribute anthology manga of Ghost in the Shell created in 2017 placed the characters in situations and scenarios that are out of the ordinary fare for the Ghost in the Shell universe. One story made by Tony Takezaki placed the Section 9 team in a tokusatsu show universe where Motoko Kusanagi was the Red Ranger of a Sentai team. Designwise, their suits resemble a hybrid of Bioman, Sun Vulcan and Battle Fever J.

The style of some of the manga pages of this story refects those of real world Japanese kids promotional magazines such as TV-Kun, as its displays the weapons of the team, thier mechas and certain panels showcase some of thier Ranger powers such as Mokoto's invisibility.

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:

  • 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.

At her right side of her waist, there is also a gun that is similar to the AbaLasers/Thundermax Blasters.

League of Super Evil

Force Five

Force Fighters Five

In this Canadian animated TV series, a group of 5 heroes known as The Force Fighters Five are known to protect Metrotown from the forces of evil. They were the first superhero 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 (or 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. While meant to be a parody of Super Sentai, the only footage of the fictional series shown involved the UFO Fighters sharing an apartment. The characters are never seen out of uniform.

Legend Quest

In the episode "Kaiju", the Japanese Prince Akihito wields an object called the "Sword of Dawn" and transforms into a large, robotic looking samurai complete with a Super Sentai-Power Rangers style transformation sequence. Once shrunk down to human size, his samurai armor is reminiscent to a stylized Red Ranger suit.
