Line 14:
Asuka soon recovers from being [[Brought Down to Normal]] and joins as the fourth Abaranger, only to have his resolve tested as he is forced to fight Jeanne, a [[Dark Action Girl|vicious Evolian general]] who [[Identical Stranger|shares the appearance]] of his lost love. Later on, a powerful [[Evil Counterpart]] appears in the form of Mikoto Nakadai, an [[Evil Genius|amoral genius]] who uses a [[Super Prototype]] of the Abaranger technology to become "AbareKiller", a nemesis that challenges the Abaranger's belief in the [[Rousseau Was Right|basic goodness of humanity]].
 
The theme of the series is, [[Meaningful Name|quite obvious from the title]], [[Everything's Better with Dinosaurs|dinosaurs]], lots and lots of [[Hot-Blooded|hotbloodedness]], and [[Stuff Blowing Up|explosions]].<ref> Just for starters: The word "AbaRanger" is from "''Abare''", meaning "riot/rampage/outbreak/run wild".</ref>
 
Oh, and did we mention that the Dinosaurs ''[[Talking Animal|talk]]''?

Line 49:

{{quote|'''Ryouga''': "Bursting energy!<ref> Genki Bakudai!</ref> ''AbareYellow''!"
'''Yukito''': "Explode Seriously!<ref> Honki Bakuhatsu!</ref> ''AbareBlack''!"
'''Ranru''': "Dashing with courage!<ref> Yuuki de bakushin!</ref> ''AbareKiller''!"
'''Asuka''': "The invincible soul of the Dragon People! <ref> Muteki no Ryujin tamashi!</ref> ''Evoliens''!"
{{spoiler|1='''Mikoto''': "[[The Stoic|The finest example of excitement.]]<ref> Tokimeki no haku.</ref> ''AbaRed''!"}} <ref>The work "Haku" is a wordplay; "Haku" means "Doctor", among other things, and the Kanji used here for "Ha" stands for "White".</ref>|'''All''': "The Iron AbareBlue! ''Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger''!"}}
** Brachio has his twist; his lines are different every time he goes through his [[Stock Footage]].
* [[Law of Chromatic Superiority]]: {{spoiler|1=Ryoga later obtains the power to become [[Shonen Upgrade|AbareYellow]].}}
* [[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]]
* [[Mook]]s: Baomea soldiers; anagram for "[[wikipedia:Amoeba|Amoeba]]".<ref>Read as "A-mee-ba".</ref>.
* [[The Movie]]: ''Abaranger Deluxe: Abare Summer Kinkin Chū!''
* [["On the Next Episode of..." Catchphrase]]: Averted; the phrases are different each time.
Line 112:
** Mikoto: [[Cool Sword|Wing Pentact]] <ref>Can also function as a laser-shooting [[The Pen Is Mightier|quill pen.]]</ref>
 
== Tropes specific to [[Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger]]: ==
* [[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.
Line 193:
* [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!]]: Ryoga has a moment in the Abaranger vs. [[Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger|Dekaranger]] special:
{{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|portmanteauxportmanteau]]x 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).
** For example, the first Trinoid to appear in the series is created from "''Bakudan''/Bomb", "Dandelion" and "Lion". Its name? Bakudandelion.
** Taken to its logical extreme with the Hexanoid's six-piece name: Hanabi<ref>fireworks</ref> + Bi<ref>bee</ref> + Bikini + Nikibi<ref>pimple</ref> + Binasu<ref>Venus</ref> + Nasu<ref>eggplant</ref> = [[Overly Long Name|Hanabikinikibinasu]].
