A 2009 [[Tokusatsu]] that is a direct sequel to the successful ''[[Tomica Hero Rescue Force]]''. Like its predecessor, it takes the [[Rescue]] genre and tries to make it as [[Rule of Cool|ridiculously cool]] as possible, but this time it focuses on firefighting.
The series focuses on the Super-Fire Specialist Team, a newly-created division of the United Fire-Defense Agency (which Rescue Force was a part of). Due to global warming, an insidious group of demons known as the Fire Tribe have been released from captivity inside the polar ice caps. The Fire Tribe have the power to create [[Kill It
It's just as [[Merchandise-Driven]] as ''Rescue Force'' was, but the level of [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|sheer undiluted awesomeness]] is just as high as ever.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Actor Allusion]]: In one episode, Fire-2/Yuuma shows off a few yo-yo tricks before attempting to talk to Gaia Leon. Prior to becoming an actor, Kawada Yu participated in yo-yo competitions.
* [[A Day in The Limelight]]: Episode 34 is Tama-chan's time to shine.▼
* [[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]: In episode 47 Joukaen takes Mie-sensei, Captain Taiga, and [[Children Are Innocent|a bunch of cute kids]] hostage so that he can take control of Fire Phoenix.
* [[Arc Words]]: The villains keep saying they'll turn somewhere into a "Sea of flames".▼
* [[An Axe to Grind]]: Fire2 uses Rescue Breaker in axe mode as his [[Weapon of Choice]], he also gives it a [[Finishing Move]] called "Axe Storm".
▲* [[Arc Words]]: The villains keep saying they'll turn somewhere into a "Sea of flames".
* [[Badass Grandpa]]: But what did you expect when it comes to [[Hiroshi Fujioka]]?
* [[Badass Normal]]: Though Captain Taiga Riku is incapable of wearing a Fire-suit after testing them all himself, this does ''not'' stop him from taking on ''[[Ax Crazy|a powered up]]'' [[The Brute|Sakaen]].
Line 29 ⟶ 27:
* [[Catgirl]]: Tama dresses as one while visiting a zoo.
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl|Clingy Jealous Guy]]: Tsubasa to Ritsuka
* [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: Taken literally with the 'cool' part. When the big bad punishes his underlings, the punishment always has something to do with ice, since the villains are fiery demons▼
** Not always, in some episodes they also get a punishment related to their last scheme.▼
* [[Combining Mecha]]: Much like the season before it. One of the big combos of the year is Great Wyvern, which combines five rescue vehicles into a lightning-spouting dragon.
** And that's nothing. Great Wyvern can combine into [[Up to Eleven|an even bigger combo, Great Wyvern GX]], courtesy of additional vehicles X Dragon and Gaia Leon. Tomica Heroes surely like One-Upping themselves constantly!
** While Great Wyvern GX is still their '''Big''' Guns, Fire-1 now has the Keroberos Dragon, Fire Dragon combined with the auxiliary vehicles from ''Rescue Force''.
▲* [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: Taken literally with the 'cool' part. When the big bad punishes his underlings, the punishment always has something to do with ice, since the villains are fiery demons
▲** Not always, in some episodes they also get a punishment related to their last scheme.
* [[Crossover]]: With [[Tomica Hero Rescue Force]] near the end of the series, albeit limited to R1 and R5. (R2 to R4 are just in suit.)
* [[Dancing Theme]] - The second ED theme.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Ritsuka.
* [[Fastball Special]]: A fastball-within-a-fastball. Dozer Dragon tosses Fire Dragon up into the air, then Fire Dragon launches its car, Rescue Dash 1, out at the enemy.
Line 51 ⟶ 50:
** [[The Lancer]] - Tsubasa/ Fire-4
** [[The Chick]] - Jun/ Fire-5
* [[
* [[Genki Girl]]: Tamami Sugiyama, super-happy cafeteria worker.
* [[Go
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Jokaen does a [[Heel Face Turn]] in episode 48, and then attacks Donkaen after learning that the reason for his original [[Face Heel Turn]] was Donkaen's fault and not the humans'. Donkaen, who has fully revived by this point, almost literally swats Jokaen like a fly, making the attack rather ineffective, and making the [[Heroic Sacrifice]] toe the line with [[
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[Hiroshi Fujioka]] plays the UFDA director.
* [[Hot Blooded]]: No pun intended. (Though Yuma/Fire-2 is more [[Hot Blooded]] than the others, even using the good old "Ora, ora, ora!" battle cry.)▼
* [[Ho Yay]]: In episode 37, [[Hopeless Suitor|Tsubasa]] fails to ask [[Oblivious to Love|Ritsuka]] to a cruise and Jun offers to go with him, prompting a similar [[Fetish Fuel|romantic fantasy]] [[Imagine Spot|similar to his previous ones about Ritsuka]]. Needless to say, Tsubasa is [[Brain Bleach|naturally]] [[Squick|repulsed]] by this.
▲* [[Hot
* [[Humans Are
* [[I Found You Like This]]: In episode 36, when Tatsuya exhausts himself while swimming and Ritsuka pulls him out and makes sure he's okay (creating a rather [[Ship Tease|cute scene]]). Once he wakes up, however, even as she's being kind to him while he catches his breath, she essentially kindly berates him for doing something that stupid before walking off.
* [[Infernal Retaliation]]: If only while this show is on the air, every [[Monster of the Week]] can have the words "on fire" added to it. The first enemy is a giant firebreathing one-eyed sentient motorcycle with a tail. That is on fire.
Line 63:
* [[Informed Ability]]: Ritsuka is known as "Miss Perfect". In training she gets perfect scores, but so far on the field she's been slightly less than effective.
* [[JAM Project]]: Provides both opening songs and two insert tracks.
* [[Kill It
* [[Lady of War]]: Ritsuka Yuki/Fire-3.
* [[Last Breath Bullet]]: {{spoiler|What the three commanders do after getting beat for real, resulting in Yuuma being given a free trip to Death's door, with Ritsuka, Tusbasa and Jun not doing so well ether.}}
* [[Magic Skirt]]: No matter how many times Ritsuka drops down a five-story chute to her vehicle with the camera [[Male Gaze|framing her from below]], you will never [[Panty Shot|see anything]]. For situations where the skirt loses its magic powers, she naturally wears convenient undershorts for further "protection".
** Said shorts have been nicknamed "Rescue Shorts" in the fandom.
Line 74:
** Even though episode 13 didn't use it. It's still a cool catchphrase
* [[Playboy Bunny]]: Tatsuya imagines Ritsuka dressed like this in one episode. (The illusion shatters when he remembers her personality.)
▲* [[Power Trio]]: Qsuke, X-Dragon and Gaia Leon form an odd one. They're "Brothers" in a sense though they don't showcase it it seems that Gaia Leon is [[The McCoy]] since he's passionate and animalistic, X-Dragon being stoic and mechanical unlike the other mecha of the series would be [[The Spock]] which leaves Qsuke as [[The Kirk]] (Which seems to fit as he's passionate and has a rescus soul but works to balance out Tatsuya).
▲* [[Put On a Bus]]: The original Rescue Force has been "sent overseas".
* [[Roar Before Beating]]: Normally this is an enemy trope, but all of the friendly mecha do it here as well.
* [[Rule of Cool]]
Line 82 ⟶ 81:
* [[Sixth Ranger]]: Fire-4 and Fire-5, the Sky Team.
* [[Small Annoying Creature]]: Q-suke.
* [[So Last Season]]: Both Rescue Striker, originally given to Fire-3, and the Rescue Breaker start out being used fairly often, though they're not good for much. The Rescue Breaker is slowly phased out in favor of the Tri-Basher, and Ritsuka eventually gets her own new vehicle in Turbo Dragon. Though Rescue
** The Rescue Breaker is still Fire-2's preferred weapon of choice. Fire-1 is Tri-Basher Sword while Fire-3 is Tri-Basher Gun. Their backpacks hold both weapons though.
** Rescue Striker, {{spoiler|Rescue Diver, and the combined Super Rescue Max}} come back in a [[Crossover]] team-up worldwide [[Combination Attack]]. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teOKgjQxB-g\]
* [[Spank the Cutie]]: No seriously, Ukaen spanks Nana-chan (The sister of Tsubasa's sempai) in episode 46.
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: Both ''[[Madan Senki Ryukendo]]'' and ''
** The Blue Dragons look a lot like the Madan Weapons soul ... dragon ... thingies.
* [[Super Mode]]: Fire-1 X. He fights with a sword called the Ryudoken, which sounds [[Madan Senki Ryukendo|very familiar...]]
* [[Talking the Monster
* [[Theme Music Power-Up]]
* [[Transformation Sequence]]: However only Fire-1 and Fire-4's are ever shown in full.
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Chukaen, Ukaen, and Sakaen have the tendency to end all of their sentences with "de shii (C)", "de aru (R)", and "de eru (L)" respectively.
** If you look into it a bit closely, each of them represents their position. Chukaen literally translates into "'''C'''entre Fire" Ukaen literally translates into "'''R'''ight Fire" and Sakaen translates into "'''L'''eft Fire".
