Justified, though- they needed to leave Earth before they died, and either they or other denizens of the Flash system could always go back and retrieve the base and mecha later.

-->''On one fateful day, five children from Earth were kidnapped and sent to the far reaches of outer space. Twenty years later...''
''Chōshinsei Flashman'' (Supernova Flashman) is the tenth SuperSentai show, airing from 1986 to 1987.
In 1966, the Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess authorized the abduction of five kids for the purposes of their experiments. The benevolent beings from the Flash Galaxy saved the kids, and took each of them to a different planet of their solar system. Twenty years later, with the abilities they gained from the training on these planets, the now-grown kids return to Earth to fight the Mess as the Flashmen. There's just one problem: since they've been away from Earth for so long, the planet's atmosphere has become deadly to them, so they can only stay for a year; otherwise, they die of the Anti-Flash Phenomenon.
!!!The Flashmen are:
* Jin ('''Red Flash'''): TheLeader, who is the [[TeamDad oldest member on the team]] as well as a [[TheSmartGuy scientist]].
* Dai ('''Green Flash'''): TheLancer, who is a [[TheBigGuy strongman]] with [[SuperStrength inhuman strength]].
* Bun ('''Blue Flash'''): KidAppealCharacter, who is a [[TheSmartGuy survival expert]] and is [[WallCrawl able to scale walls]].
* Sara ('''Yellow Flash'''): TheChick, who possesses a [[TheSmartGuy sharp, analytical mind]] [[SuperSenses for exposing enemy weakness]].
* Lou ('''Pink Flash'''): TheHeart, who is an ActionGirl with [[TheBigGuy real great strength]] and [[InASingleBound the best leaping skills]] of the team.
!!!The members of Mess consist of:
* Great Emperor Ra Deus : The BigBad.
* Lee Keflen: The EvilGenius, [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monster Maker]] and Ra Deus' right-hand man.
* Ley Wandar: The Zebra-Striped [[TheDragon Dragon]].
* Ley Nefel: The leopard-like [[DarkActionGirl Dark Action]] [[DarkChick Chick]].
* Wolk and Kilt: ThoseTwoBadGuys and {{Dark Action Girl}}s.
* Ley Galus: TheBrute.
* Kuragen: A squid monster summoned to [[MakeMyMonsterGrow bring the monsters up to size.]]
* The Alien Hunters: The QuirkyMinibossSquad, led by the quite-competent Sir Cowler. They were the ones who abducted the Flashman team when they were infants.
* Zolors: The insectoid {{Mooks}}.

** KidAppealCharacter: Bun
** TheChick: Sara
** TheHeart: Lou
** TeamPet: [=Mag=]; also their mentor.
* HomeBase: The Round Base, a large building that can go into space.
* HumongousMecha: The first Sentai team to have a second giant robot. The first robot was the usual combining mech, while second was of the transforming kind.
** CombiningMecha: Tank Command (Red) + Jet Delta (Green and Yellow) + Jet Seeker (Blue and Pink) = Flash King
** TransformingMecha: The Flash Titan truck, which transforms into the support robot Titan Boy, which can then combine with its trailer to form the Great Titan.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Nastily subverted once the Anti-Flash Phenomenom causes the Flashmen to temporarily lose their powers; Jin is the first to go.
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Kuragen's reason for living. [[spoiler:Interestingly, it's a strange variety of LiquidAssets. It's like there's only so much "big" to go around, so ginormous scary-looking Kragen appears, makes the monster big... and then ''shrinks down to the size of a gerbil'' and has to scurry away from the battlefield as fast as his little tentacles can carry him. It's hilarious.]]
* MonsterOfTheWeek: The ''Jūsenshi'' or Beast Warriors, creatures created by Lee Keflen's genetic synthesizer from the genes of Earth's animals ([[spoiler:the final series of monsters were created by combining the genes of Ra Deus himself with those of his underlings]]).
* {{Mook}}s: The insectoid Zolors, complete with acid webbing.
* TheMovie: Two, although the second was a CompilationMovie of Titan Boy's intro arc (ep. 15-18).
* OnTheNextEpisodeOfCatchPhrase: "Prism Flash! ''Chōshinsei Flashman!''"
* RegularCaller:
* RobotBuddy: [=Mag=].
* SupervillainLair: Reconstructive Experiment Base Labor, a sort-of flying saucer.
* ThemeMusicPowerUp:
* TransformationTrinket: See ByThePowerOfGrayskull
* TransformationNameAnnouncement
* TwoGirlsToATeam: The third Sentai team with two girls and the second with a Yellow and Pink duo.
* WeaponOfChoice
** BifurcatedWeapon: The Prism Shooters. [[note]]Splits from a [[{{Handguns}} blaster]] into a [[CoolSword sword]] and [[LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe shield]].[[/note]]
** {{BFG}}: The "Vul" guns, one for each Flashmen and named after each of their respective color.
** Jin: [[CoolSword Prism Seiken]] [[hottip:*:''Prism Holy Sword'']]
** Dai: [[PowerFist Prism Kaiser]]
** Bun: [[BarrierWarrior Prism Ball]] and [[FlechetteStorm Star Darts]].
** Sara: [[SimpleStaff Prism Batons]] and [[ImprobableWeaponUser Shocking Beads]].
** Lou: [[ArmedLegs Prism Boots]] and [[ImprobableWeaponUser Shocking Hearts]].
!!Tropes specific to ChoushinseiFlashman:
* BizarreAlienBiology: Their years on the Flash planets have altered the Flashmen's genetic makeup, giving them superpowers but making it impossible for them to stay on Earth for more than a year.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Sara finds her real family, she and the other Flashmen destroy the bad guys, but they have to leave the Earth for the sake of their lives.]]
** [[spoiler:It was never stated that they couldn't return after recovering for a year or two, though. Thus, making it not as quite as bad.]] However, it is still the one of the only two sentai so far to not end on an overly happy note. The other being Timeranger, which is probably worse.
* CompetitiveBalance
** JackOfAllStats: Jin
** MightyGlacier: Dai
** FragileSpeedster: Bun
** LightningBruiser: Sara
** GlassCannon: Lou
* DontThinkFeel: How the team deals with Dai's sight being turned upside-down in Episode 4, despite Mag wanting him to undergo TrainingFromHell on a handstand.
* DubNameChange: Dai is called "Dan" and Bun is called "Go" in Brazil.
* EverythingTryingToKillYou: [[spoiler:Anti-Flash Phenomenon. To wit: You touch fellow humans? You get electrocuted. You touch flowers? The flowers gas you. You try to drink? The water chokes you. You stand around in the open? The sun burns you.]]
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Every single member of the Flashmen.
* HeelFaceTurn: Baraki used to work for Mess, until his life was saved by Titan the Hero.
* {{Homage}}: The interior of Round Base looks an awful lot like [[Series/DoctorWho the TARDIS]], down to the hexagonal console.
* LegoGenetics: This is how the Mess creates their monsters.
* MeaningfulName: Ra Deus. With a name like that, do you think [[AGodAmI he considers himself a god]]?
** The name "Tokimura" means "time village". Dr. Tokimura is a time machine inventor.
* MidSeasonUpgrade: The Flashmen's power source is given a boost when they are weakened by the Anti-Flash Phenomenon. In the finale, new monsters are created with help from Ra Deus's DNA.
* NamesTheSame: ''ChoushinseiFlashman'' has nothing to do with either [[{{Flashman}} George [=MacDonald=] Fraser's series of novels]] or the [[VideoGame/MegaMan2 Robot Master]].
* OddlyNamedSequel: The fourth and final Sentai not to use the word "Sentai" in its title.
* OnlyOneName: The first Sentai team to have its members lack surnames, [[spoiler:though we find that Sara's last name is Tokimura]].
* [[PrecursorHeroes Precursor Hero]]: the Hero Titan, the one who the Flash Aliens based the Flashman technology on.
* TheSpeechless: Ley Galus and the other monsters can only growl.
* StockSuperpowers
** SuperStrength: Dai
** WallCrawl: Bun
** SuperSenses: Sara
** InASingleBound: Lou
* TakingYouWithMe: [[spoiler: The Flash King is crippled when one of a pair of monsters blew up on it after being dealt the death blow; this necessitated the need to get Great Titan. [[UnexplainedRecovery It does get better a few episodes later.]]]]
* TimeStop: Ley Wanda later gains this ability.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Lou and Sara.
* TouchedByVorlons
* TheVoiceless: The Alien Hunters, with the obvious exception of Sir Cowler.
* WeCanRuleTogether: Invoked by Lee Keflen at the very last episode to the Flashmen. Much to everyone's surprise, it's Sara who's the first to [[ShutUpHannibal call shenanigans on it]].
