A [[Toku]] show that aired in 2006. [[Naive Newcomer|Kenji Narukami]] comes to the small town of Akebono, where the city's Power Spot is of great interest to the demonic Jamanga. [[Evil Overlord|Dr. Worm]] and an assortment of others send down monsters that defy description in an attempt to gather [[Emotion Eater|"Minus Energy"]] - the negative feelings from people- to revive the [[Big Bad]].
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
 
Despite constant rumours of a sequel (though it had extremely low television ratings compared to ''[[Super Sentai]]'' and ''[[Kamen Rider]]'', it amazingly sold far more toys) it never came to be. It later got a [[Spiritual Successor]] in ''[[Tomica Hero Rescue Force]]''.
----
'''This program provides examples of:'''
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[A Day in Thethe Limelight]] - Many minor characters get focus near the end.
* [[Adjective Noun Fred]] - The series itself, and the heroes' full titles - Madan Swordsman Ryukendo, Madan Gunman Ryuguno, and Madan Fighter Ryujino.
* [[Antagonist in Mourning]] - {{spoiler|The Madan Warriors do follow Dr. Worm's wishes to come to Rock Crimson's funeral. The funeral gets interrupted partway through for a battle, and that's when Dr. Worm snaps.}}
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]] - One episode has the Mooks swarming the city and committing acts of villainy, from general vandalism to [[Crowning Moment of Funny|reading Kaori's diary out loud.]] It's funny 'cos they're usually [[The Unintelligible]].
* [[Attack of the 50 -Foot Whatever]] - Including one square-off between Ryukendo and a giant version of himself.
* [[By the Power of Greyskull]]
** Ryukendo: Gekiryu Henshin!
Line 30 ⟶ 28:
* [[Elaborate Underground Base]] - SHOT HQ
* [[Eldritch Abomination]] - DaiMaOh
* [[Elemental Powers]] - [[Playing Withwith Fire|Fire]], [[Making a Splash|Aqua]] and [[Shock and Awe|Thunder]] Ryukendo. Later, his [[Super Mode]] upgrades them to Burning, [[An Ice Person|Blizzard]] and Lightning Ryukendo respectively.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better Withwith Monkeys]] - Fire Kong and its upgraded form, Burning Kong.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Even Worse Withwith Sharks]] - Averted. Aqua Shark, and later its upgraded form, Blizzard Shark, are one of Ryukendo's Juuoh.
* [[Exclusive Enemy Equipment]] - Sort of. Dr. Worm creates new Monsters of the Week from Madan Keys, which are in turn taken and purified by SHOT, leading to Kenji getting more powerful, leading to Worm sending down more monsters.
* [[Fire, Ice, Lightning]] - Fire, Aqua, and Thunder Ryukendo. I'm not sure it can be played any straighter.

* [[Hermetic Magic]]
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]] - In the final episode, {{spoiler|the three [[Empathic Weapon|Empathic Weapons]] sacrifice themselves to seal the Power Spot that was the cause of the town's problems in the first place}}.

* [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]] - the Jamanga, of course.
* [[Serial Escalation]]- Kenji's power increases as the series goes along. Just over halfway through the series he gains a [[Super Mode]] that is actually called "[[God|God Ryukendo]]"... and ''that's not even his most powerful form''!
