1* Prior to this season, the Roll Call poses were always done by the suit actors. This is the first season to have the unmorphed actors strike the pose. Considering the roll call pose is one of the most complicated poses in the 41-year history of the franchise, the fact that untrained actors flawlessly pulled it off is something to be admired.
2* Jin is stronger and better than Ryou, initially. But then Ryou trains by wearing a full-body spring cast to get up to his level. And [[BattleStrip then takes it off by flexing]]. What follows is one of the best action scenes in the show, with two actors in great physical shape trading ''very'' fast blows with each other - well, mostly Ryou. Well, [[CurbStompBattle pretty much entirely Ryou.]]
3** P.S: The full-body spring training scene, on the other hand, is very much horrific. If you can stomach that, yeah, you get rewarded with an awesome scene.
4** This was so awesome that [[Series/HikoninSentaiAkibaranger Akibaranger S2]] used ''this'' scene to restore Ryuuranger's memories.
5* Here's one more in the ''second'' episode. Trying to MakeMyMonsterGrow? The team's response? ''Give a big NO U and destroy the monster before it could grow.''
6* Oh no! Daigo's been sucked into Heatwave Hood - and if the others kill the Gorma, Daigo dies too! Not only that, but the Gohma's planning to self-destruct to kill Daigo! So what can they do? They don't need to, actually, because Daigo ''punches his way out''.
7* Near the end of the series, the Dairangers lose their ability to transform and summon their mecha. They have to protect one of the two towers that is fueling their master's victory for the control of Gorma. So they do their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sozNVvtO3U intro poses out of costume]] and begin throwing down.
8** This particular suitless roll call is notable amongst the fanbase because those poses are particularly intricate, and the actors nailed them. And it becomes a SignatureScene for years to come, often imitated, never perfected.
9** It's such a SignatureScene that this episode serves as the basis of the plot and {{Aesop}} for [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Gokaiger's]] Dairanger tribute episode.
10** It was even homaged in the finale of ''Series/PowerRangersWildForce''.
11* Kazu fighting the Dairanger Copies and crippling Copy Empress' copy powers in episode 25.
12* Rin pulling ThisIsUnforgivable in episode 33 towards Gara, followed by her walking towards her in TranquilFury and then sending the villain in full retreat by just one satisfying punch.
13* Ryou[=/=]Ryuu Ranger: Can't take on your rival? Why not take off the training springs?
14* Daigo[=/=]Shishi Ranger: Stuck inside a monster's belly? Why not ''punch''?
15* The series went out of its way to give every Ranger equal time, story, and character development and usually ran episodes in a series of four filler and one that moved the story forward (usually a two-parter). Since the stories were ordered by rank, they would almost always appear in Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Pink order. This means that for this season, much of the major story elements were carried by the Pink Ranger, not the Red Ranger. This says a lot about the strength of her character when you consider that this season's red ranger is considered one of the franchise's best examples.
