Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger/Fridge: Difference between revisions

* GokaiSilver's [[Super Mode|Gold Mode]] armor, when not in use, is shaped like an anchor. The same is true for the key used to summon it, as evidenced by scans of the upcoming action figures.

** The first recognized [[Sixth Ranger]] in Sentai, [[Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger|DragonRanger]], also wore gold armor for that matter.

* The Action Commander in Episode 9, which introduces Gao Lion, is dog-themed. No wonder the big guy swipes him away.

* ShinkenGokaiOh's weapons include scaled-up [[BFS|Rekka Daizanto]] and the mech's normal swords attached end-to-end. The latter makes little sense, until you rewatch the Shinkenger's first use of their Kajiki Origami.

* When the team changes into Liveman they have three guys and two girls, in the first episode of Liveman what was the group of friends? Three guys and two girls, in a way this shows what it could have looked like.

** The Liveman tribute includes Gokaiger Joe's [[Manly Tears]] over the fact that they cannot reverse [[Evil Former Friend|Barizorg's]] [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul|cyborgization]]. Megumi, the original Blue Dolphin, was [[Never Live It Down|known for crying a lot on that show]]. [[Darker and Edgier|Not that]] [[Tear Jerker|it wasn't justified...]]

** He's also the son of Speedor (Engine No 1) and BearRV (Engine No 3).

* In episode 31, when Gai defeats his Extra Ranger Key enemies, they were able to grow into large versions of themselves. At first I asked why was that possible? Then I remembered who he was battling, [[Mahou Sentai Magiranger|Wolzard Fire]] and [[Go Go Sentai Boukenger|Zuban]]. Those two had the ability to grow big in their original series! With Wolzard Fire being Wolzard at the time of course

* Gai's Gokai Supernova contains one when you realize what happens to a star as it goes...supernova. If you watch the effect, it sheds off energy as it heads toward the MotW; a supernova does the same thing, in what's called a helium flash.

* All of Ahim's transformations in episode 41 bear some sort of reference:

** Ahim and Don transform into the [[Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger|Gouraigers]]. Reason: The Gouraigers were the fourth and fifth members of the Hurricangers just as Don and Ahim are the fourth and fifth members of the Gokaigers.

** Ahim and Luka transform into [[Tensou Sentai Goseiger|Gosei Pink and Gosei Yellow]]. Reason: Yellow and Pink are usually reserved as female roles in previous Sentai.

** Space Sheriffs being linked to Super Sentai may seem to be confusing considering they were called Galactic Union Police not Space Police but watch Sun Vulcan episode 45 it references a Galactic Union and Galactic Police. Shaider episode 17 shows Galactic Police is another name for the Space Sheriffs. Shozo Uehara who wrote for Sun Vulcan would also write for Space Sheriff Gavan, Space Sheriff Sharivan and Space Sheriff Shaider.

*** Thus SPD being an offshoot of the Space Sheriffs make sense given like the Space Sheriff's combat suits Dekaranger Deka Metal suits are teleported from their baseships.

* [[Evil Knockoff|Gavan Bootleg's]] name may imply the notion that the Zangyack wanted someone who could ''pirate'' Gavan's power without using the P-word; after all, they're fighting pirates!

* Why does Gai have a [[Super Mode]] while the other Gokaigers don't? Because [[Sixth Ranger|Sixth Rangers]] generally don't have [[Super Mode|Super Modes]] and the other Gokaigers can access the [[Super Mode|Super Modes]] of the other rangers. As a [[Super Sentai]] fanboy, Gai is aware of this and created Gold Mode as a way to compensate this fact and catch up with the rest of the team.

** They probably weren't stranded though. Even if the Round Base was destroyed during the war, they could have easily gotten a lift back to the Flash planets from the SPD, assuming that Zangyack didn't get in their way of course. Once the Gokaigers appeared, they might have sent Dai back to Earth to make sure that the Gokaigers got their power, and if it had taken more than a year for the Gokaigers to collect the powers he would have left and another member would take his place. Of course he ran into Basco, so he might have ended up leaving Earth earlier than he expected, unless he felt like staying around for the year...

* The villains in ''vs. Gavan'' are imprisoned by the Zangyack because they were not completely evil, sympathetic, and/or comic relief villains. Keep in mind that one of Super Sentai's [[Strictly Formula|tradition]] regarding these kinds of villains, and you'll start to wonder what happened to a couple of others like them...

** One has to note as per Gokaiger episode 5 SPD has a delete order for Zangyack action commander Bramdo. So the Space Police does fight Zangyack in some capacity. As noted in the movie in attempted negotiation with Gavan SPD cleared the Gokaiger as the piracy charges were fake. The Space Sheriffs and SPD work for the same organization, the Space Police. Signalman is also a Space Police from Police Planet. Thus while Super Sentai may serve as Earth's super heroes, the Space Police are more akin to the Green Lantern Corps. That makes them more of a overall threat to Zangyack than Earth's heroes. Which why Zangyack had Space Police Director General Weeval replaced with an impostor to spy on them and have them fight their enemies for Zangyack. Likely SPD higher ups and Gavan had their suspicions but they can't act without luring the impostor, Ashrada, out in the open.

* Rio and Mele {{spoiler|condemned their own souls as the price for going briefly [[Back From the Dead]]}} to help the Gekirangers in ''Vs. Go-Onger''. If they ''were'' the same ones in the Legend War, you'd actually be ''thankful'' for the writers to not reveal how they came back.
