* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Has anyone else heard a tiger howl?
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Episode 18. How to deal with an annoying [[Bratty Half -Pint]] who barges into your apartment? Fool him into thinking his long-lost mom has come back to see him again, of course! Ha ha... ha?

Line 161:
* [[Pun-Based Title]]: The title ''Dairanger'', could be interpreted as a reference to the "Dai" tribe that the heroes are descended from, or as the "Great Rangers". It's also worth noting that ''Dairenja'', the Japanese pronunciation of the title, shares a partial namesake with ''Dairen'', the Japanese name of the Chinese city of Dalian. While Dalian is never directly referenced on the show, the name of the team's mecha, ''Dairen-oh'', uses the same kanji used to write the city's name.
* [[Sdrawkcab Name]]: The name "Wong Tiger" is derived from a backward reading of the kanji characters used to write Kiba Daioh's name. "Wong" comes from the Chinese reading of the kanji for "king"<ref>王</ref>, while ''tai'' and ''ga'' are alternate pronunciations of the kanji for "great" or ''dai''<ref>大</ref> and "fang" or ''kiba''<ref>牙</ref> respectively.
* [[Shout -Out]]: [[The Three Stooges|The Three Gorma Stooges]], a [[Harmless Villain]] trio who simply want to defeat our heroes in competitions, rather than kill them.
* [[Spell My Name With an "S"]]: Lin, or Rin? You'd think it's "Lin" since she's Chinese, but the Media Magician episode plasters "Rin" all over the place.
* [[The Starscream]]: Shadam, who's overall motive throughout the series is to kill the Emperor and take over the Gohma Empire.
