History Series / KaizokuSentaiGokaiger

* CurbStompBattle: The Monster in #11 manages to easily defeat the Gokaigers even in their ''Zyuranger, Dynaman, and Gingaman forms.''

** This is taken UpToEleven in ''199 Heroes'', where, when the Humongous Mecha of all the previous Sentai robots join forces, the extended Goranger theme song plays throughout the fight as they beat down multiple previous enemies that were brought back to life.

*** DualWielding: Joe and Luka's speciality. Luka has shown to use the Gokai Sabres in two different ways: a DoubleWeapon by combing the two sabres by their hilt, and an EpicFlail by using the wires in the sabres. It's currently unknown if these are exclusive skills or if the others can do them too. Joe, on the other hand, sticks mostly to "regular" but complex swordplay... [[spoiler:Except for when #4 has him [[UpToEleven upping the ante]] by doing this with ''all five'' Gokai Sabres, becoming two- and three-bladers each with a single handle, presumably to make the quint-wielding easier on the suit actor.]]

* {{Nice Hat}}s: Built into the Ranger helmets!
** [=GokaiOh=] gets a rather fancy one as well, not to mention the additional ones for [=Shinken GokaiOh=], [=Hurricane GokaiOh=] and [=Kanzen GokaiOh=].
** Gokai Silver's helmet has a [[NiceHat Nice Bandana]].

* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: Some of the previews to the following episodes show images that wind up giving away important plot points.

* EleventhHourSuperpower: In #50, Gai finally uses Megaranger's Grand Power -- it gives [=GoZyuJin=] the Mega Winger's flight wing.

* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In #23, during the team attack on Rio, Mele, and Zubaan as [=GoGoV=], after Don attacks, you can see him running off into the distance in slow-motion, V-Lancer waving without a care in the world, as Luka and Ahim step in to attack.

** Pay attention during the OP when the five fall through space and Marvelous is reaching for his Ranger key - Ahim is more concerned with ''holding her skirt down.''
** Don is basically a walking supplier of Funny Background Events; in any battle, expect him to do something silly, like mess up a pose or fight in a bizarre way. Gai provides some as well, often in the form of fanboyism.
*** In #33, when the team does the Dairanger pose (which involves hitting your open palm with your fist), Don breaks the pose to shake his hand in pain. Then when they do the Sentai-standard "leap over the camera" shot, he flashes a peace sign at the camera as he flies by.
** In #29 when the MOTW enters Gokai Yellow's suit as tiny being, the rest of team tries to remove him (sans Gokai Silver, as he was in [=GoZyuJin=]), Gokai Blue however is heard muttering incoherently and appears uncertain what to do help. He even tries to do his signature pose as this happens (holding his right hand up to his helmet) but can't even do it properly.

** In #45 during the all-Blue Gokai Change, Joe as Shinken Blue can be seen polishing his Shinkenmaru with a cloth which he then throws to the floor.

* TheWorfEffect: In #31, the very first thing that [[spoiler:Final Form Basco]] does is break Gai's arm (with an ''audibly sickening crack''), then knock him out in one shot.

** Turns out [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger Doggie Kruger (Deka Master)]] is close friends with [[Series/SpaceSheriffGavan Retsu Ichijoji (Gavan)]]. In fact, it's one of the reasons [[http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/294630_242223739163245_111195458932741_732664_25156731_n.jpg this picture]] was taken during the filming of ''199 Heroes'' even though Retsu is not in the movie. Though it seems that according to Creator/TetsuInada's twitter, [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot Dekamaster/Doggie Kruger will not be in Gokaiger vs Gavan at all.]]

* PokemonSpeech: The DVD special has Karizorg[[note]]blank[[/note]]/Nyarizorg[[note]]cat[[/note]]/Sugozorg[[note]][[EliteMook Sugormin]][[/note]], whose speech changes whenever it is combined with another object.

** Inverted in #41 when Zatsurig, with his GameBreaker ability and ''the destruction of planet Famille to his name'', is taken down in the same ep he appears in.

* FauxbaFett: #28: Kiaido is a space-faring bounty hunter employed by TheEmpire who looks like a red-colored Boba Fett.

* HybridMonster: The monster from TheMovie is a fusion of the {{Mooks}} from the 34 previous series.

* JokeCharacter: In #29 (the ''Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger'' episode), Emiri gives Ahim a Ranger Key for Abare Pink...which, if one remembers ''Aba'', was just a home-made costume. The outfit is so goofy (and completely useless) that Ahim refuses to fight.

* PostVictoryCollapse: After finally defeating Ackdos Gill, the Gokaigers do this when celebrating their victory.

Instead of being directly adapted into a ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' series, elements from the show were incorporated into the second half of ''Series/PowerRangersMegaforce.''

->''"The 34 Super Sentai who have protected the smiles of the people! They lost their powers fighting as the [[TheEmpie Space Empire Zangyack]]…but their powers have been inherited by these unbelievable rogues!"''
-->-- '''OpeningNarration ([[{{Narrator}} by]] Creator/TomokazuSeki'''

->"''On a search for adventure and excitement, these youths went on a journey through the universe. They faced the Space Empire Zangyack and took the title of 'pirates'. They are...[[TitleScream Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger!]]''"

** [=GoZyuJin=] seems to have a few nods to ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'' in its design. Its robot mode has a dinosaur head and tail for hands, not unlike Megatron; its tail opens up into a spinning blade with a smaller pointy bit inside, just like Dinobot and it has a DrillTank mode similar to ''Anime/BeastWarsII'''s Galvatron (who, interestingly enough, flies a SpacePirate ship).

** Gai: [[SwissArmyWeapon Gokai]] [[ProngsOfPoseidon Spear]][[note]][[BladeOnAStick Spear]], [[RayGun Gun]], and [[AnchorsAway Anchor]] modes.[[/note]]

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Did you ''see'' the page picture?

* PantyShot:
** Ahim in #11.[[note]]Of course, this being ''Super Sentai'', Yui Koike is wearing shorts underneath.[[/note]]
** In a rare costume example, Luka in ''Gokaiger vs. Gavan'' as Hurricane Yellow[[note]]Which is compounded by the fact that the original Hurricane Yellow was male[[/note]].

** DressedToPlunder
** GhostPirate: In the movie, complete with GhostShip (Ghost [=GokaiOh=], no less).
** APirate400YearsTooLate
** PirateGirl: Luka Millfy/Gokai Yellow
** PirateParrot: Navi.
*** Sally, although he's more of a Pirate Monkey.

** SpacePirates
