{{quote|"''The iron DinoGuts!''"}}

Oh, and did we mention that the Dinosaurs ''[[Talking Animal|talk]]''?

 

* Ryōga Hakua / '''{{color|red|AbaRed}}''': An environmental protection investigator from the US. An easygoing [[Nice Guy]].

* Yukito Sanjyo / '''{{color|blue|AbareBlue}}''': A charismatic chiropractor with legendary skills. Stands too far in [[The Stoic]] territory.

* Dr. Mikoto Nakadai / '''{{color|silver|AbareKiller}}''': A [[Deadly Doctor]] who's bored out of his wits until he saw the Evoliens invading Earth, but was disappointed that the Bakuryu are used for good. [[Chaotic Evil|Guess what happens when he got his hands on his own Bakuryu]]...

 

* {{spoiler|Dezumozorya}}: The [[Big Bad]]; Evoliens' God.

* Rije: Apostle of Dawn, and later, {{spoiler|Queen of the Empire}}. Finally revealed to be {{spoiler|Asuka and Mahoro's daughter}}.

* Mikela: The [[Art Initiates Life|painter-themed]] [[Monster of the Week|Monster-Of-The-Week]] maker, from combination of a plant, an animal and a man-made appliance.

* Voffa: Also a [[Monster of the Week|Monster-Of-The-Week]] maker, but with a musician-theme. He creates giant monsters directly, named after classical music pieces.

 

Check/help build the [[Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger/Characters|character sheet]].

Adapted as ''[[Power Rangers Dino Thunder]]'' which gave a nod to the original sentai in one of their episodes.

 

* [[All Your Powers Combined]]: The Superior Dino Bomber, once Abare Killer joins the team.

** Dino Bomber: Combination of the main trio's weapons.

* [[Make My Monster Grow]]: Whenever a Trinoid is defeated, the Life Berry used in its creation breaks and summons a rain which revives them in giant form. Averted with Voffa's Giganoids, ''[[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|which start out in giant form already]]''.

* [[Mix and Match]]: {[[Super Sentai]] + ([[Everything's Better with Dinosaurs|Dinosaurs]] * [[Talking Animal]]) + [[Stuff Blowing Up|Explosions]] + [[Alien Invasion]]} * '''[[Hot-Blooded|HOT BLOODED!!!]]''' = [[Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger]]

* [[The Movie]]: ''Abaranger Deluxe: Abare Summer Kinkin Chū!''

* [["On the Next Episode of..." Catchphrase]]: Averted; the phrases are different each time.

* [[Robot Buddy]]: All the Bakuryu can qualify in a sense, despite their size.

* [[Super Mode]]: Abare Mode. In a twist from the usual, it comes with the suit and doesn't actually need to be unlocked.

** And {{spoiler|1=AbareBlack}}.

** Asuka: [[Royal Rapier|Dino Thruster]] <ref>Has 4 different [[Elemental Powers|elemental]] attacks.</ref>

** Mikoto: [[Cool Sword|Wing Pentact]] <ref>Can also function as a laser-shooting [[The Pen Is Mightier|quill pen.]]</ref>

 

* [[And I Must Scream]]: the victims of the Ep. 38 Trinoid are turned into Rafflesia flowers, known for smelling like rotting meat and relying on ''flies'' to be pollinated. [[Fridge Horror|Think about it.]]

* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: AbareMax.

** Tyra also revealed in episode 3 that he had a child, all the while teaching Ryoga a parental aesop.

* [[Power Walk]]: in the final scene from the opening.

{{quote|I'm! I'M! A FATHER! I CAN'T BE KILLED HERE!!!!!}}

* [[Punny Name]]: Each Trinoid comes from three concepts: a plant, an animal and a man-made appliance, not necessarily in that order. Naturally, their names are punny [[Portmanteau|portmanteaux]] of all three. For the pun to work, however, each concept's last syllable(s) must be the same as the next concept's first syllable(s).

* {{spoiler|[[Sealed Evil in a Can|Sealed Evil In A Man]]}}: {{spoiler|Half of the Evolien's [[Eldritch Abomination|God]] is sealed away inside Mikoto Nakadai, which triggers his [[Villainous Breakdown]]}}.

* [[Shonen Upgrade]] / [[Mid-Season Upgrade]]: {{spoiler|1=AbareKiller and Bakuryu Styracosaurus / TopGaler}}.

** For those unable to read Japanese, Brachio's referenced songs from ''[[Space Sheriff Sharivan]]'', ''[[JAKQ Dengekitai]]'', ''[[Battle Fever J]]'', ''[[Bishoujo Kamen Poitrine]]'', ''[[Denshi Sentai Denziman]]'', ''[[Jikuu Senshi Spielban]]'', ''[[Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan]]'', ''[[Kagaku Sentai Dynaman]]'', ''[[Space Sheriff Shaider]]'', ''[[Kaiketsu Zubat]]'', ''[[Dai Sentai Goggle Five]]'', ''[[Dengeki Sentai Changeman]]'', ''[[Yuugen Jikkou Sisters Shushutorian]]'', ''[[Rescue Sentai Go Go Five]]'', ''[[Space Sheriff Gavan]]'', ''[[Kamen Rider Skyrider]]'', ''[[Tokusou Robo Janperson]]'', ''[[Seiun Kamen Machineman]]'', ''[[Kikaider]]'', ''[[Kamen Rider Faiz]]'', ''Abaranger'' itself, ''[[Gekisou Sentai Carranger]]'', ''[[Kamen Rider Kuuga]]'', ''[[Captain Ultra]]'', ''[[Kamen Rider X]]'', ''[[Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger]]'' (in the [[Crossover]] with that show), and ''[[Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger]]'' (again, in the [[Crossover]] with that show).

** Ranru using different disguises to get past the ep. 35 AbareKiller is straight out of [[Scooby Doo]].

* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: {{spoiler|In the final episode, the Abarangers have a reunion some time after defeating the Evoliens. Asuka and Mahoro (now back on Dino Earth) cannot be there, nor can Mikoto (dead) and Rijewel (de-aged ''past Rije'' into an infant, back on Dino Earth), so all five (counting Rije/Rijewel as two separate characters) are replaced by identical-looking customers who just happen to wander into Dino Curry at the right moment.}}

* [[Take That]]: the [[Captain Ersatz]] [[Ultraman]] in episode 8.

* [[These Hands Have Killed]]: episode 30, when we learn that {{spoiler|Asuka was not only the first to become Geildon, but killed scores of fellow Ryujin.}}

* [[Unwinnable Training Simulation]]: episode 30.

* [[Verbal Tic]]: ''Every''. ''Single''. Bakuryu. Except Styracosaurus, Carnoryutus, and Chasmoshieldon.
