* I know this sounds like a dumb question, but ''why'' is the Armada invading Earth? I ''know'' this is Power Rangers, and the enemies are usually of the CardCarryingVillain sort, but there's usually a goal they have in mind. The goal is not always deep, but it makes sense, be it enslaving the population, gaining power, revenge, etc. Pure ForTheEvulz is actually rare for this franchise.

** Even when they morph directly into Super Mega Mode, the stock footage showing the Megaforce footage is played. My guess is that if they use the Legedanry Morphers and Ranger Keys even when unmorphed, it automatically forms the Megaforce suit underneath the Super Mega one.

* From what I understand, Super Mega Mode is supposedly just a powerup and not a new set of powers, which explains why the Rangers usually morph into regular Megaforce before going Super Mega. Yet, there are times where they bypass Megaforce altogether and go straight to Super Mega Mode without any ill consequences on their part. What gives with that?

** Probably to save money. Even if getting some of the pre-Zyu costumes would cost something, it still allowed them to shoehorn in some Sentai footage.

* We see suits belonging to FIVE unadapted Sentai teams. Dairanger, which is named Legendary Squadron, Flashman, which is called Prism, Maskman, Changeman (both referred to as Blitz, though the latter may be a French dub error as the English version hasn't aired yet - Maskman was also referred to as Thunder, a name more befitting the Dairangers who are the true owners of the Thunderzords, and Changeman was called the powers of the legendary dragon) and Fiveman, which appears to be called Supersonic. Dairanger was said to be rangers never before seen on Earth. Another Alien Rangers team like the Aquitians then, fair enough. The other four are never explained. In fact, Fiveman's sole appearance was in a fight that was already partly reshot to replace Sun Vulcan's red ranger with Mighty Morphin's. That's the real headscratcher - why didn't they just replace all five pre-Zyuranger suits?

** Think of Legendary Modes as instantaneous job/class/schema changes (see ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX2'' and ''VideoGame/LightningReturnsFinalFantasyXIII'') that fit whatever the situation the (Super) Megaforce Rangers are in. Reverting to Megaforce mode would not be considered a downgrade -- the mode would be treated just as another job/class/schema, but fully accessible from the get-go. Nobody raised a stink when Lightning can use her two previous outfits in ''Lightning Returns'' via OldSaveBonus, so that sort of logic must apply here.

** This troper remembers that most of the tension in Turbo came from Dimitria being less experienced and able to help than Zordon was, and Zordon was recognized, up to In Space, as a revered and all-powerful leader. Thus while we can now see that the SuperMegaforce initiative is a good plan (as Gosei was basically able to put the Armada on stand-off possible encompassing the whole series), we can't assume that Gosei was already ready to enact it during In Space or that he even felt confident enough to basically replace Zordon.
** Furthermore, we know for sure that the SuperMegaforce powers weren't the only plan Gosei had in mind: his main weapon used to be Robo Knight himself, until he lost him: as far as we know, the Megaforce initiative was just completed when the Warstar attacked, and Gosei used the extra time to work the kinks in the SuperMegarforce in time for the Armada.



*** Another possibility is that they're another alien ranger team and Gosei decided 'hey, I have to get the Galaxy, Space, and Aquatar Ranger powers, why not get the other planets while I'm at it?' and the other Ranger Teams we see are simply alien ranger teams that never had reason to come to Earth.

Added DiffLines:

*** The Dairenger powers are presented as "New modes that have never been seen before '''on this planet'''". Then the Megaforce Rangers proceed to call them "new powers". On their perspective, they were new powers. On Gosei's perspective, the keys channel powers belonging to some alien team of Rangers (like the Alien Rangers from Aquitar were) that never came to Earth, and so are new to Eartheners.


Added DiffLines:

*** According to the original source material, Vekar's flagship (the ''Gigant Horse'' in Gokaiger) is a basically indestructible flying fortress: if the same applies in the Power Ranger's universe, the best Troy could do was giving Vekar some sort of warning (by wiping out the front lines of the Armada almost effortlessly) initiating a planet-wide stalemate. The Power Rangers turned a short, one-sided invasion into a time, resources consuming siege.

* I know they're trying to match Sentai footage and all, but in "Blue Saber Saga", just why does the base have keys for the basic Megaforce Rangers? What would happen if a Super Mega Ranger used one? Would it still count as Legendary Mode? Would they only be able to stay in the mode for a brief time?

** Although it's not stated, I would imagine either Vekar's flagship retreated the moment things started to go bad (wouldn't you?) and/or it's a more advanced ship, meaning it'd be better protected against the Megazord's weapons. I think the objective here was to simply get rid of the fleet that was currently pointing all their weapons at Earth (although I would bet five Ranger Keys that a new fleet will suddenly be there by the next episode). This does provide an interesting stalemate. The villains can't wipe Earth out in one shot because the Rangers can tear through their fleet with ease, and the Rangers can't just take out the main villains right away because they're too well protected by the rest of the fleet.

* Same episode as above. After the megazord battle, the rangers decided to go to space and wipe out the armada's frontlines. The question is, why in Zordon's name didn't they just go up a bit further, find the commanding warship, and blow it to smitherness? If the warship is stationed between earth and moon, just like in Gokaiger, then why didn't they finish it off? Heck, they actually managed to get on the moon itself, so there's no excuse for them to miss the biggest and the most distinguishable spaceship. I know it's Gokaiger's first episode footage where they were running away from Zangyack, and that was justified. The problem here is that there's no justification for the rangers not going after the villains. It's like they decided to only trim the frontlines and call it a day, missing a huge opportunity to hit the villains where it hurts the most.

* In ''Earth Fights Back'', the rangers morph into RPM, then a team which has never been seen on Earth before. Gosei, where the hell did you find the GoseiSentaiDairanger powers!?!
** Well strictly speaking, how did Gosei get hold of the RPM powers if they come from an alternate universe? Or the SPD or Time Force powers which come from the future? Or even the Aquitar and Lost Galaxy powers which are also on other planets?

** For the second set of questions, look up to the answer to the above-bulleted question ("the Morphing Grid encompasses all space-time", where Gosei can harvest viable traces of Ranger energy). As for the ''Dairanger'' powers, there are several theories:
*** They could be prototypes of the [[Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy Galaxy Rangers']] powers (as ''Lost Galaxy'' originally meant to use the Dairangers but dumped in favor of the Gingamen).
*** They were fashioned out of a combination of the White Ranger's powers, the powers of the Thunderzords, and whatever remains of the original MMPR rangers' powers.

** Remember that Gosei is Zordon's apprentice, right? Zordon knew that if any ranger should fall in battle without finding an immediate worthy replacement, at least part of the essence of that fallen ranger must still remain thanks to the Morphing Grid (because once a certain team of rangers establish a link to the Grid by morphing, there will be bits and traces of the energy being transmitted that will remain, much like the way data is transmitted across networks). He eventually found out a way to encapsulate that essence into a compact object (say, a key); but he kept that technique a secret due to concerns of abuse by the forces of evil. Before he was captured, he entrusted this technique to his worthy successor. As for the alternate universe concern, let's just say the Morphing Grid encompasses all space-time.

** According to the episode previews on Ranger Wiki, sadly it does appear that they'll be skipping most of the Megazord powerups. 13 episodes into a 20 episode season, (and the thirteenth is the one where they get their Ultrazord) and all they've got is Wild Force/Samurai and RPM (Jungle Fury was just a one-time attack, not a Megazord mode). By that point in Gokaiger they had Mystic Force, SPD and Ninja Storm.

** They aren't going to be copying Gokaiger with regular cameos for each past season, but that doesn't mean they aren't going to use the zords. Episode summaries have already appeared online and two episodes in particular have indicated that the rangers will be visiting the Animarium and Corinth city where they will no doubt acquire the Lion and Falcon zords. I don't know what they're planning exactly for the Mystic Dragon, Delta Runner 1 and the Minizord, but they'll definately be introducing them, just in a different way to the Sentai version.

** They aren't going to be copying Gokaiger with regular cameos for each past season, but that doesn't mean they aren't going to use the zords. Episode summaries have already appeared online and two episodes in particular have indicated that the rangers will be visiting the Animarium and Corinth city where they will no doubt acquire the Lion and Falcon zords. I don't know what they're planning exactly for the Mystic Dragon, Delta Runner 1 and the Minizord, but they'll definately be introducing them, just in a different way to the Sentai version.

* So Malkor biting the head of a zombat made it in uncensored, but showing him getting incinerated in the ship explosion is too violent?

* So apparently, a Samurai ranger will be making an appearance but not a Wild Force ranger? That's gonna be a problem; in Gokaiger the Shinkenger megazord power-up was always used in conjunction with Gaoranger, and it was one of their most used configurations. Are they gonna just ignore the giant robot lion that shows up whenever they use it?
