Line 82:
'''{{color|black|Master}}''': "Cutting down hundreds of evildoers! Hell's Police Guard Dog, Deka Master!" }}
* [[Make My Monster Grow]]: Significantly averted this season; instead of growing to giant size, nearly every [[Monster of the Week]] pilots his/her own [[Humongous Mecha]]. Only a small number of them can grow on their own.

Line 156:
* [[Gun Kata]]: Ban's Juu Kun Do, "The Way of the Gun".

* [[Heir to
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Apparently Tetsu's superior DekaBright [[Kamen Rider Kuuga|has had experience leading the Grongi.]]
** And the Alieniser in the pilot arc modelled his human disguise from [[Kamen Rider Agito|a certain unlicenced-doctor-cum-Rider.]]
** In [[The Movie]], the [[Big Bad|antagonist]] is the same actor as Gashadokuro from ''[[Ninja Sentai Kakuranger]]''.

Line 185:
** The last episode has an inversion of roles with Hoji calling Ban partner and Ban (jokingly) putting him down.

* [[Putting

* [[Double Standard Rape (Male
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Ban and Hoji. Also, Umeko and Jasmine, to a lesser extent.

Line 207:
*** One episode has the DekarangerRobo stopping an incoming missile by invoking the [[Barehanded Blade Block]] (complete with [[Jidai Geki]] terminology).
