9!Ninja Storm Rangers

11[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sentai3378_1.jpg]]
12 [[caption-width-right:350:The Ninja Storm Rangers]]
13* AnimalMotifTeam: Including being Ninja-themed Rangers, their secondary motif is animals as all their Zords are animal-based.
14* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: The ''Wild Force'' Rangers had powers with animals as their main source from an ancient civilization and started off with a team of five. The Wind Rangers' powers are elemental and ninja based that were made in the present and started off as a trio. And while the ''Wild Force'' Rangers had a male Blue Ranger and a female Yellow Ranger, the Wind Rangers have the reverse with a male Yellow and (for the first time in Power Rangers history) a female Blue.
15* ElementalPowers: Aside from Cam, all the Rangers this season have powers connected to the elements. Shane controls air, Tori controls water, Dustin controls Earth, and the Thunder Rangers control lightning.
16* {{Ninja}}: The Wind and Thunder Rangers are ninja-themed and are more pronounced than the Mighty Morphin and Alien Rangers team ten years ago. Cam subverts this as he is known as the Green ''Samurai'' Ranger.
17* ThreePlusTwo: This is the first team of Power Rangers to begin with three members instead of five. The Wind Rangers were a team of three at the start of the season before being joined by the Thunder Ranger duo. Cam eventually becomes the SixthRanger of the team, making for an overall Three Plus Two Plus One formula.
18* TransformationTrinket:
19** The Wind Rangers morph using wrist-mounted Wind Morphers, powered by Power Discs. When morphed, the Rangers can use the Morphers to fire ninja beams.
20** The Thunder Rangers morph using wrist-mounted Thunder Morphers, again powered by Power Discs.
21** The Green Samurai Ranger morphs using the Samurai Cyclone Morpher, which normally stays as the Samurai Amulet when not in use.

24!!Wind Rangers
25[[folder:In General]]
26* LandSeaSky: The trio each use these elements that they learned in the Wind Ninja Academy: Shane focuses on wind, Tori focuses on water, and Dustin focuses on earth.
27* TwoGuysAndAGirl: The Wind Ranger trio consists of two male Rangers (Shane and Dustin) and one lone female Ranger (Tori).
28* TookALevelInBadass: Initially, the trio were the misfits of the Wind Ninja Academy that were the lower class of the school. But fighting monsters all season made them seasoned veterans, [[spoiler:eventually becoming teachers after Lothor's defeat]].
29* TheUnchosenOne: Because of their low status in the Wind Ninja Academy, it seemed that the trio were only chosen to become Power Rangers because they were the only ones Sensei could use as the others were captured. [[spoiler:This is subverted in the finale as Sensei revealed that, according to the Scroll of Destiny, they were always meant to be Power Rangers. He just never told them until then because he did not think they would believe him.]]

41--> ''Not another clone story! Didn't we already do this?''
42
43Shane was a student at the Ninja Academy, but because he and his friends were late helping a couple with their car, they escaped Lothor's invasion and getting captured. Due to his affinity with wind, he received the Red Wind Ranger powers.
44----
45* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: The second episode, "There's No "I" in Team." He lets being the Red Ranger go to his head, thinking the others should just do as he says and that he doesn't need any help. A monster fight forces him to see otherwise.
46* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: He's more serious compared to Yousuke from ''Hurricanegers'', the latter of whom was a bit of an air head.
47* BlowYouAway: He's the Ninja with the Power of Air and using a ton of wind attacks.
48* FireForgedFriends: With Hunter in "Boxing Bopp-A-Roo."
49* CoolBoard: Shane shows interest in skateboarding.
50* FreakyFridayFlip: With the Sensei in "Sensei Switcharoo".
51* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: He gets the usual Battlizer.
52* TheLeader: Shane leads the Wind Rangers in battle, and after the Thunder Rangers and Cam join the front lines, he serves as the leader of the entire Ninja Storm Rangers.
53* NobleBirdOfPrey: His secondary theme is the Hawk.
54* TheGunslinger: Shane's primary weapon is the Hawk Blaster, a gun designed as a blow drier with a hawk motif.
55* PowerGivesYouWings: The second mode of the Battlizer: a smaller version of his own Hawk Zord forms a jetpack that lets him take out Vexacus' spaceship in a dogfight. He briefly gets energy wings during the finisher to boot.
56* RedIsHeroic: After Lothor captures the students of the Wind Academy, Shane fulfills his destiny to become the Red Wind Ranger.
57* TheSpock: He's generally the most mellow guy on the team (though he and Hunter spend an episode as competition freaks).
58* SuperMode: Shane gains the Tri-Battlizer in the second half of the season. The Tri-Battlizer features two modes: a sleek armored mode, and a flight mode.
59* WellDoneSonGuy: Or in his case, "Well Done, Little Brother! Guy". He didn't get along with his older brother, a business man, because he never liked his love of skateboarding. When he finds out Shane is a Power Ranger, he starts treating him with more respect.
60* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Tori mentions that he's afraid of spiders. A childhood flashback shows Shane very hesitantly freeing Skyla from a spider web. His ''worst'' fear is his family looking down on him, particularly his older brother.

71--> ''What's wrong? Never seen a girl in blue spandex walk on water?''
72
73Tori was a student at the Ninja Academy, but because she and her friends were late helping a couple with their car, they escaped Lothor's invasion and getting captured. Due to her affinity with water, she received the Blue Wind Ranger powers.
74----
75* ActionGirl: Don't you worry, this girl definitely makes up for TheSmurfettePrinciple.
76* AdaptationalJobChange: She's a surfer, while her Sentai counterpart was a singer.
77* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: She's a tomboy, while her Sentai counterpart was very much a girly-girl.
78* ArbitrarySkepticism: The infamous first episode weirdness. She didn't believe the Power Rangers existed despite that she goes to a school of magical ninjas, or that the Earth was invaded by aliens years prior.
79* BlueIsHeroic: After Lothor captures the students of the Wind Academy, Tori fulfills her destiny to become the Blue Wind Ranger.
80* DudeMagnet: She and Blake have a mutual attraction. A surfer in episode 3 gets a crush on her. Another surfer in The Wild Wipeout calls her a babe. A couple times, Choobo says she's pretty. And when they meet the Dino Thunder rangers, Conner and Ethan both agree she’s cute.
81* HeroicDolphin: Her secondary motif is the dolphin.
82* IconicSequelCharacter: Tori doesn't appear until season 11, but many fans consider her to be one of the best Blue Rangers in the franchise.
83* ImprobableWeaponUser: The Sonic Fin. A megaphone that shoots sonic blasts.
84* TheKirk: Compared to Shane's seriousness and Dustin's wackiness, she comes off as the level headed one of the trio.
85* MakingASplash: Power of water.
86* MyCard: At the end of "Once a Ranger," Tori presents Andrew Hartford with her business card.
87* OneOfTheBoys: Subverted - she doesn't appreciate being told this in "Beauty and the Beach".
88* SurferDude: Tori spends her time surfing.
89* ShipTease: With Blake.
90* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only girl on the team for the first time in ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' history (not counting Delphine).
91* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She likes shopping and focusing on her hair but she's one of the more focused and action-based female rangers.
92* TrueBlueFemininity: Tori is a blue ranger, the only girl on her team, and is a heroic character who is friendlier to Cam than her male teammates.
93* TwoTimerDate: Non-romantic. Trying to balance Shane's skate competition and a movie with the Thunders was never really going to work, even with super-speed.
94* WalkOnWater: Part of her unique ninja powers.
95* WaterIsWomanly: Downplayed. She's the Blue Wind Ranger with the power of water and a dolphin motif, as well as the only girl among the Wind Rangers. She's a tomboy, but is more mature than her male teammates.
96* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: She is not fond of getting her hair cut.
97* WillTheyOrWontThey: She and Blake have a mutual attraction and it's implied that they are dating but they aren't official.

107
108--> ''Well, I guess no-one's laughing at the comic book geek now, ARE they?''
109
110Dustin was a student at the Ninja Academy, but because he and his friends were late helping a couple with their car, they escaped Lothor's invasion and getting captured. Due to his affinity with earth, he received the Yellow Wind Ranger powers.
111----
112* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: "Tongue and Cheek," where the Yellow Ranger is hailed as a public, solo hero for stopping some human thugs from busting up Storm Chargers. While the others (rather unfairly) give him crap about it, Dustin actually takes it in stride and just likes getting some respect for a change. However, after a solo fight against the MonsterOfTheWeek in front of some reporters, Dustin starts letting the fame go to his head. When he encounters the monster again (who, by this point, has captured Hunter and Blake), he refuses to morph or fight until the press are about to arrive--baffling Shane (who ''is'' jealous), Tori, and even the monster. Dustin gets over it, though.
113-->'''Shane:''' Take it from someone who's been there. There's no "I" in team.\
114'''Dustin:''' Maybe there should be.
115* AscendedFanboy: He was already a big fan of the Power Rangers.
116* AuthorAvatar: Showrunner at the time Doug Sloan wrote Dustin to be like himself when he was a teenager, as Sloan did motocross and was as happy-go-lucky during that time.
117* BadassBiker: In addition to riding a motorcycle into combat like so many other Power Rangers, Dustin is an impressive dirt bike rider (which is why he gains the power of Earth).
118* TheBigGuy: Out of the core three and later six, he has the most gung ho attitude to becoming a ranger. He's physically much stronger than his teammates and can send a monster flying with a single blow. Dustin also has the most ninja attacks and move-sets: Ninja Clones, earth mines, slashing through the earth, and his Storm Striker's finishing move is dropping 100 tons on the opponent.
119* CarryABigStick: His signature weapon is the Lion Hammer, a gigantic hammer that helps him use stronger ninja attacks and does tons of damage.
120* DatingCatwoman: With Marah in "All About Beevil".
121* DishingOutDirt: Power of Earth.
122* DoppelgangerAttack: "It's two!" "Two!" "Rangers in one!"
123* EmbarrassingFirstName: His real name is Waldo.
124* FreakyFridayFlip: With the Sensei in "Sensei Switcharoo".
125* TheHeart: While Blake falls into this by not filling any other time, Dustin is the one that really brings the two Ranger factions together.
126* KingOfBeasts: His secondary theme is the lion.
127* TheMcCoy: Is definitely the most emotional of the Rangers.
128* MeaningfulName: His name is ''Dust''in and he's a ninja lot of dirt and earth attacks.
129* NiceGuy: He’s unfailingly friendly and trusting towards everyone he meets. This is deconstructed several times throughout the series as it makes him a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter when he becomes too trusting of enemies such as Hunter, Blake, and Marah. However, it could be said that it’s a Decon-Recon Switch and ability to see the good in others as every enemy he trusts becomes an ally by the end of the season.
130* PrimaryColorChampion: After Lothor captures the students of the Wind Academy, Dustin fulfills his destiny to become the Yellow Wind Ranger.
131* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: He's afraid of heights.

134!!Thunder Rangers
135[[folder:In General]]
136* AdaptationalNiceGuy:
137** In ''Hurricaneger'', the Gouraigers were antagonistic to the main trio by their own choice and only joined them afterwards after realizing that gaining the Evil Will was not a good deal. In ''Power Rangers'', the Thunder Rangers only fought the Rangers because Lothor manipulated them and once they learned the truth about their parents' real killer, they easily joined the Rangers after some soul searching.
138** This also extends to their attitudes. The Gouraigers had a haughty attitude towards the Hurricanegers even after their HeelFaceTurn and it took awhile for them to befriend them. Here, Hunter and Blake are more affable towards the Wind Rangers and are seen hanging out with them shortly after their reformation.
139* BadassBiker: Both Rangers are trained motocross bikers, and they own their own Tsunami Cycles.
140* BashBrothers: They may not be blood related, but Hunter and Blake are strongest when they work together and always have each others back.
141* EvilSoundsDeep: They originally had their voices deepened while morphed to maintain their secret identites. Once the Wind Rangers discovered they were Hunter and Blake, the aspect was dropped.
142* JapaneseBeetleBrothers: While its not stated outright, the Thunder Rangers main AnimalMotif are beetles with the Crimson Ranger themed after the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Navy Ranger themed after the Stag Beetle.
143* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: The Gouraigers were blood brothers in the Sentai, but Hunter and Blake are adopted brothers.
144* ShockAndAwe: True to their name, the Thunder Rangers control the power of lightning.

169* TheLancer: He's the standoffish, charismatic, and powerful member who believes he has the right to become the leader of the team due to being the current head of the Thunder Ninja Academy which often puts him in conflict with Shane as the leader.
170* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Since he is a Red-like ranger, he also gets a special power up: a Glider Cycle.
171* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: In "Shimazu Returns, Part II", Hunter enters a talent competition and shows off his rapping skills.
172* PuppyDogEyes: Of all people, Hunter seems the least likely to do so, but....

174* ShockAndAwe: Shares Power of Thunder with his brother.
175* SwornBrothers: With Blake.
176* TroubledButCute: About as "troubled" as [[AffectionateParody this year]] got, anyway. Blake calls him the "dark and brooding" one.

221--> '''Sensei:''' You have your mother's courageous heart...and your father's stubborn head.
222
223Cam was the son of Sensei Watanabe, and the creator of the Wind Ranger's powers and zords. While he strongly desired to join the Rangers in the battlefield, his father forbade him due to a promise by his late mother. However, after certain events led him to inherit his mother's Samurai Amulet, he was finally able to join the Rangers as the Green Samurai Ranger.
224----
225* AntiNepotism: Cam is the son of the dojo's sensei and wants to be a Power Ranger, but his father tries to keep him from doing so because Cam's late mother didn't want him to risk his life that way.
226* AsianAndNerdy: The smart one of the team.
227* BadassBookworm: The other rangers have a hard time believing this. When Shane sees this at first, Cam responds "Grew up in a Ninja School, do the math". His badassery gets emphasized even further when he becomes a Ranger.
228* BigRedButton: Has one in the center of his keyboard.
229* CompositeCharacter: He's basically a male version of Oboro who gets the Shurikenger suit. It's even lampshaded in a ''PRNS''/''Hurricaneger'' [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1705909/1/Kaze_to_Hariken_Kaminari_to_Raijin crossover one-shot fanfic]].
230* DeadpanSnarker: He has a snide comment or witty comeback for just about anything that's said to him.

243* OnlyChildSyndrome: In "Down and Dirty", seeing Hunter and Blake constantly arguing, Cam remarks he's glad he's an only child.
244* PolarOppositeTwins: With Cyber Cam.
245* SamuraiShinobi: He is identified as the Green Samurai despite the team being ninjas. He has a SuperMode that increases his speed by discarding his armor and giving him an appearance more in line with the other Rangers' suits. It should be noted that Cam's ''Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger'' counterpart is called a ninja not a samurai.
246* SixthRanger: Despite being TheSmartGuy since the first episode[[note]]Actually, he's completely unique among the other official examples of this trope in both ''Super Sentai'' and ''Power Rangers'' as he is the only SixthRanger in either franchise that is not a new character, but an established part of the main cast, in this case since the first episode, that graduated to being the actual SixthRanger later. There are [[Series/PowerRangersSPD other]] [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger add-ons]] [[Series/PowerRangersJungleFury from]] [[Series/PowerRangersDinoCharge both]] [[Series/ZyudenSentaiKyoryuger sides]] of the Pacific that are similar in graduating to Ranger status, but none of them are the actual [[SixthRanger Sixth Rangers]] of their teams, though we [[WhatCouldHaveBeen very nearly]] had a repeat with [[Series/PowerRangersSamurai Spike Skullovitch]] before the more traditional new character was used instead. The next actual example would only come [[Series/PowerRangersBeastMorphers sixteen years later]], with an {{Expy}} of Cam's, no less[[/note]].
247* TheSmartGuy: He created all of the Wind Ranger's powers and zords. Even after becoming a Ranger, he still created Power Spheres for the Rangers to use.
248* SparedByTheAdaptation: He doesn't die like his sentai counterpart.
249* StoicSpectacles: The snarky variety.
250* SuperMode: Super Samurai Mode
251* TeenGenius: He's the one responsible for developing all of the Wind Rangers' Zords. Later in the series, he figures out how to combine the Storm and Thunder Megazord using the Minizord component just by reading through the schematics of the latter. And that's not getting into him taking full advantage of the Samurai Star Chopper, among which includes creating two AttackDrone versions of it, once he gains the Green Samurai Ranger powers
252* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: In "The Samurai's Journey", [[spoiler:he defeats Kiya in battle over the Samurai Amulet.]] Unfortunately for him, this leads to [[spoiler:Lothor deducing his identity and kidnapping him to complete his EvilPlan]].
253* UnwittingPawn: At the end of the series, [[spoiler:Lothor uses him as one of his pawns to complete the final stages of opening the Abyss of Evil in his favor.]]

369
370The head master of the Wind Academy and the father to Cam. During Lothor's first attack, he was turned into a guinea pig due to their attacks clashing.
371----
372* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Played with. While they're both still human, Kanoi's Sentai counterpart, Mugensai Hinata, transformed into a hamster and stayed that way for most of ''Hurricaneger'', while Kanoi was forcibly transformed into a guinea pig by Lothor.
373** On a meta level, Mugensai alternated between a puppet and an actual hamster, while Kanoi is CG.
374* AlwaysWantedToSayThat: "Go for Sensei!"
375* BigGood: He's Cam's father and the Rangers' sensei. And he's had experience dealing with Lothor before.

377* DisownedSibling: [[spoiler:He no longer considers Lothor his brother.]]
378* FreakyFridayFlip: With Shane and later Dustin in "Sensei Switcheroo".
379* {{Hypocrite}}: Says his reasons for forbidding Cam become a ninja was because it was a life of constant danger, yet he has no qualms about subjecting other teens to such dangers, without their parents consent, or even their knowledge. [[spoiler: Somewhat justified, since his wife, Cam's mother, was the one who asked that he not be trained, in what may have been a DeathbedWish.]]

419----
420* AmbiguousSituation: It's never explained why he lives in Blue Bay Harbor while his brother lives in Reefside.
421* CannotKeepASecret: He apparently didn't bother to hide that students at the Academy could potentially become Power Rangers themselves, having told at least Conner.
422* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: He only appears in the last two episodes of ''Ninja Storm'', but his twin brother is one of the main characters of ''Dino Thunder'' and even encounters the ''Ninja Storm'' Rangers.
423* PolarOppositeTwins: Downpalayed, as Conner thinks they're this as he describes Eric as being an airhead and that the two of them are completely different, being oblivious to the fact that this is how his friends see him. However while they share many similar qualities, Conner is very passionate about soccer and becomes a better leader through CharacterDevelopment while Eric flunked out of the Academy, suggesting that Conner was more serious than his brother.

448
449--> ''The next person who uses a made-up word has to put a dollar in the made-up-word jar!''
450
451A ninja and alien conqueror who was banished from Earth but has returned to seek his revenge with his army of dark ninjas. His less-than-serious, chatty, and irreverent demeanor hides the fact that Lothor is a ferociously powerful warrior, armed with dangerous dark ninja magic and unrivaled hand-to-hand combat skills. He is introduced assaulting Wind Ninja Academy, and capturing all but three of its students, who now act as a thorn on his side as the Wind Rangers, later joined by the Thunder Rangers he initially decieved into helping him, and one more, whose journey inadvertedly reveals his past.
452
453[[spoiler:Years ago, a Wind Academy student named Kiya wanted to steal a pendant from another student, only for his brother Kanoi and a young man, Cam, to stop him. As punishment, he was stripped of his rank, and exiled into space. Years later, Kiya would return, now under the name Lothor, and capture his brother's students before setting his sights against the Wind Rangers]].
454----
455* AdaptationalBadass: Tau Zant didn't get a chance to personally fight the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers without being fused with the "Evil Force". Lothor on the other hand, doesn't need the "Evil Force" to fight the Ninja Storm Rangers and is competent enough to force them out from their transformation. Also unlike Tau Zant he has no AchillesHeel for anyone to exploit and is only beaten when the Rangers sacrifice their powers to seal him in the Abyss.
456* AdaptationalComicRelief: Downplayed, but Tau Zant is a legitimately threatening BigBad and ''not'' a LaughablyEvil NotSoHarmlessVillain.
457* AdaptationalIntelligence: Unlike Tau Zant's one-route plan to awaken the Evil Will, Lothor had two plans for his conquests: either one of his monsters defeat the Ninja Storm Rangers ''or'' the Ninja Storm Rangers fill up the Abyss of Evil to let him resurrect every minion he's had and perhaps more, then use his regained army to take over the world.
458* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Whilst Tau Zant was an alien from outer space, Lothor is a human originally from Earth who was banished into space.
459* ArchEnemy: He's more than earned enmity with the Wind Rangers for kidnapping the rest of their classmates and the Thunder Rangers for causing the deaths of their parents, but he has a clear and personal hate for the Sensei. [[spoiler:The two were brothers, or at least before Lothor was disowned, and the two share the same amount of hate for each other.]]
460* BewareTheSillyOnes: He spends more time [[OrcusOnHisThrone sitting on his throne and cracking meta-jokes]] than actually fighting, but when he does fight he's quite clearly out of the Rangers' league. He even gives Mesogog trouble when their alliance falls apart, before the more serious villain manages to get the drop on him.
461--> '''[[WebVideo/HistoryOfPowerRangers Linkara:]]''' Lothor was one ''hell'' of a fighter!
462* BeyondRedemption: [[spoiler:Kanoi's attempts to reason with him in the first episode go nowhere. He's long since accepted Lothor is no longer the brother he knew.]]
463* BigBad: The main villain of ''Ninja Storm'' and leader of his own army to take over the world.
464* BreakingTheFourthWall: "This is the most fun I've had all season!"
465** And "What did you expect? He wasn't going to get SMALLER!"
466* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler: He's the twin brother of {{Mentor}} Sensei Kanoi Watanabe]]. By extension, this makes him [[spoiler: Cam's EvilUncle and Kanoi's EvilTwin]].
467* TheChessmaster: Throughout the series he uses everyone as pawns. [[spoiler:He manipulated Vexacus, Marah and Kapri to kill his generals save for Choobo, had his monsters destroyed by the Rangers, and tricks Cam into stealing the Samurai Amulet so that he can open the Abyss of Evil]].
468* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He has betrayed everyone who has placed trust in him, [[spoiler:including his monsters that he sent to battle the Rangers, Vexacus and most of Lothor's generals, Cam, as well as Marah and Kapri]].
469* TheCorrupter: He corrupted the Thunder Rangers into thinking that Kanoi killed their parents.
470* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Lothor might not be the most evil villain, but he's one of the best in terms of combat as the Rangers never defeat him in hand-to-hand. Mesogog also only beats him with a dirty trick.
471* TheDarkArts: [[spoiler:He practiced them in his youth. His powers have become even greater as an adult.]]
472* EvilPlan: Wiping out Kanoi's ninja academy because of TheDarkSide and revenge for exiling him. [[spoiler: Family rivalry too.]]
473* ExactWords: In the past, Kiya told Cam that he knows that his brother Kanoi can be defeated, which he later demostrates by attacking him with his dark ninja powers.
474* {{Expy}}: Of the first big screen villain of the franchise, Ivan Ooze. Lothor's mannerisms, his lisp, higher pitch, down to his comedic yet menacing tone and specially his costume design heavily implies this. Further, on the crossover with Dino Thunder, Cam indagues whoever else besides Lothor would leave a trace of purple goo whenever appearing.
475* FauxAffablyEvil: Initially despite his supposed reputation, his plans tend to be sillier and his attitude is more of a sitcom uncle; in his youth he was initially friendly to Cam, that's until he tried to frame him of theft. And soon after it turns out that he is much more malicious than he let on, as he willingly let Vexacus kill a lot of his forces and [[spoiler:ultimately leaves Marah and Kapri to die out of paranoia that they could betray him]]. He also is fully unrepetant of his villainous acts.
476* FinalBoss: At the end of the series, he becomes the very last villain our heroes have to face, with all his other generals and competitors biting the dust.
477* FrameUp:
478** Lothor framed [[spoiler:his own brother]] for the murder of the Bradley brothers' parents which he himself committed.
479** [[spoiler:In "The Samurai's Journey", his younger self frames Cam for the theft of Miko's Green Samurai amulet. Fortunately, Kanoi is able to expose Kiya's treachery. Lothor seems to have a penchant for framing his own family member for crimes he commits.]]
480* FromNobodyToNightmare: [[spoiler:Lothor was once Kiya, a student of the Wind Ninja Academy until he was banished for practicing TheDarkArts. When he returns as Lothor, he has amassed an army capable of taking on both the Wind and Thunder Ninja Academies.]]
481* IWasQuiteALooker: As a teenager, Kiya was good looking while being a Ninja student, but ironically Kiya thought that only his brother Kanoi got the good looks in their family. He later lost this after his banishment.
482* {{Karma}}: He imprisoned his brother's ninja students twice, the second time in a bottle, also he shrinked and turned his own brother into a guinea pig and betrayed his nieces Kapri and Marah. Later in the Dino Thunder team-up, ''he'' is betrayed by Marah and Kapri, is imprisoned into a crystal jar and while not turned into a guinea pig, he's still shrunk into a toy size by Mesogog.
483* KilledOffscreen: In ''[[Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder Dino Thunder]]''. Since Mesogog sealed him in a canister at the end of the two-part team-up episode, he was most likely killed when Hayley destroys Mesogog's fortress in the finale.
484* KungFuWizard: Lothor is a ninja who has mastered martial arts and magic.
485* LargeHam: He loves hamming up the screen (even when he's dealing with incompetence from his nieces and generals) and just having fun being evil.
486* LaughablyEvil: His personal plans are... eccentric, to say the least. [[Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder Mesogog]] has a complete lack of respect for him for a reason.
487* MakeMyMonsterGrow: He has a Personal Alien Manager, or P.A.M, that allows him to send out the Scroll of Empowerment and grow the monsters this season. Although it's later revealed that he can only grow one monster at a time due to forgoing the extra memory upgrade.
488* ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler: He deserves this title and [[MagnificentBastard more]] for his insane the final stage of his EvilPlan alone]].
489* MotiveDecay: Inverted once his master plan is revealed.
490* MoodWhiplash: Being sandwiched between [[Series/PowerRangersWildForce two truly]] [[Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder horrifying]] {{Big Bad}}s makes his LaughablyEvil and LargeHam traits stick out a bit.
491* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Keeping the The Wind Ninjas prisoner instead of destroying them ultimately lead to the tables being turned against him during the FinalBattle.
492* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Despite not being as serious as the two previous Big Bads before him, Lothor proves he's at least competent in terms of long term plans and hand-to-hand combat. He's one of the few villains in the franchise that his respective Rangers never actually beat in a real fight. Same goes for Mesogog; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc2pHuMamyg when the two battle]], Mesogog ends up having to use his telepathy to gain the upper hand.
493* ObfuscatingStupidity: He's not as dumb as he personifies and is one of the most competent of the villains, even being able to realize the EnemyCivilWar within his generals. That being said, his endgame proves he played both sides for fools.
494* OrcusOnHisThrone: But as it turns out, he has a reason.
495* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Tau Zant had no familial ties to anyone, let alone Furabijo and/or Wendinu, Shurikenger, or the Oboro family. Lothor is Marah, Kapri and Cam's uncle as well as Sensei Watanabe's brother.
496* PetTheDog: In the Dino Thunder team-up, Lothor is annoyed to see Marah and Kapri joined the Wind Ninja Academy and tries to imprison them as well, but he spares them when they offered to help him again, and Lothor agreed but on a trial basis. [[spoiler:It bites back at him, when Kapri and Marah only pretended to join his army to get close to him and free the captured Sensei Kanoi and the ninja students.]]
497* SealedEvilInACan: A DoubleSubversion, as he is sealed in the Abyss at the end of the series, and then breaks out in the [[Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder next season]], during the team-up episode. By the end of that episode, after Lothor's plan fails, Dino Thunder's BigBad Mesogog defeats him in a fight and seals him in a canister.
498* SurroundedByIdiots: One of the best examples of the franchise, he's fully aware he's trying to take over the world with the aid of total morons and just puts up with it. [[spoiler: Just because it all plays into his endgame doesn't mean the whole process doesn't give him a migraine or two.]]
499** Partially subverted when it turns out that [[spoiler: Marah and Kapri are actually highly intelligent and ruthless and just playing the morons.]]
500* ThatManIsDead: [[spoiler:He renounced his identity as Kiya Watanabe before he was exiled into space.]]
501* WouldHitAGirl: In his youth, has no problem attacking Miko with his dark ninja powers, attacks the Blue Ranger who is a female and has no problem abandoning Marah and Kapri in his self-destroying ship.
502* VillainHasAPoint: Mocks Hunter and Blake for believing him when he said that Sensei killed their parents. Hard to argue with him given that they readily believed him without any evidence.
503* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: He has virtually everyone who has helped him with his EvilPlan killed, [[spoiler:almost including Marah, Kapri and Cam.]]
504* YouKilledMyFather: He killed Blake and Hunter's adopted parents, then convinced them that Sensei was the real murderer.

517Lothor's ditzy and fashion-conscious nieces who aspire to be members of their uncle’s army.
518----
519* AdaptationalComicRelief: {{Downplayed}} as their basis are still comedic goofy villains, especially next to most of their fellow villains but Wendinu is also TheVamp and Furabijo is a PsychopathicManchild with both girls having legitimate moments of competence despite their usual bumbling (mostly Wendinu). Here, they're portrayed as a pair of [[WellDoneSonGuy "Well Done, Daughter!" Girls]].
520* AdaptationalHeroism: Not really heroism per se, but Wendinu and Furabijo never bothered to pull a HeelFaceTurn, preferring to resume their "mischief" on the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers in ''VS Abaranger'' and ''10 Years After'' even after Jakanja is destroyed.
521* AdaptationalModesty: Kapri's costume is more or less the same as Wendinu's, but with her chest covered up.
522* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Their Sentai counterparts are much more effective in doing their jobs than them.
523* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: Marah and Kapri's parents are never seen and mentioned only once throughout Ninja Storm and they are stated to be Lothor's nieces, not his daughter, and they are definitely not the daughters of [[spoiler: Kanoi's]] as Cam is their cousin, and Cam is Kanoi’s son. Lothor says that he is their uncle only by marriage, suggesting Lothor was once married.
524* [[TheBaroness The Baronesses]]: They try to be the Sexpot variety at times, with Kapri attempting the Rosa Klebb personality, but they're too immature and incompetent to really count as either.

528* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: They can be amazingly competent, under the right circumstances.
529* DarkActionGirl: They occasionally show themselves to be competent fighters.
530* DarkMagicalGirl: They lack a MagicalGirl to contrast but they have other components such as [[WellDoneSonGuy seeking their uncle's approval]], lacking any friends save each other and [[spoiler: a HeelFaceTurn when a Ranger offers to accept them as family.]] Though one could say they contrast Cam because his relationship with Kanoi is the opposite of their's to Lothor's.
531* DatingCatwoman: Marah does this with Dustin in "All About Beevil". While she later invokes TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou meaning that she wasn't pulling a HeelFaceTurn for their sake, she isn't all that happy when everyone congratulates her on such a perfect plot later, which prompts Kapri to tease her.
532--> You ''like'' him!
533** Later on in the finale, Marah asks Cam if Dustin's still mad at her for the whole backstabbing thing, at least partially confirming feelings on her end.
534* TheDitz: Silly, airheaded and incompetent, most of the time.
535* EvenEvilHasStandards: They were pretty grossed out that Lothor had General Trayf's remains cooked for a barbecue. The incident even made Marah decide to be a vegetarian.
536* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The entire season they're belittled by their uncle for not being evil and competent. [[spoiler: Once they prove to him otherwise, he says he can't trust them and leaves them to die.]]
537* GoodCostumeSwitch: After their HeelFaceTurn, they drop their alien ninja outfits and adopt their natural hair color (blonde for Kapri and brunette for Marah). In the PRNS/PRDT Team-up, when they pretend to rejoin Lothor's army, he changes their outfits and hairstyles back to their villainous ones and later they drop them for good, when [[TheMole they revealed to their cousin Cam and the other rangers they were only pretended to be evil to rescue the ninja students and Sensei Kanoi]]
538* HeelFaceTurn: at the end of the series.
539* HighHeelFaceTurn: Marah and Kapri are the only ''Ninja Storm'' villains who turn good at the season's end.
540* LoveAtFirstSight: Marah finds Dustin cute from the first time she lays eyes on him, well before their DatingCatwoman dynamic develops.
541* MasterOfDisguise: In several episodes, the sisters employ an UnlimitedWardrobe and various different hairstyles to interact with the Power Rangers incognito. How successful said disguises are varies, but the two have some talent (particularly Kapri, especially the time she impersonates a male doctor).
542* ObfuscatingStupidity: Revealed that much of their ditzy persona has all been an act, they're far smarter and capable than they've been letting on and wanted to be underestimated. However, they do retain their ValleyGirl personalities.
543* {{Perky Female Minion}}s: Marah certainly is. Kapri seems more vindictive than her sister.
544* RelatedInTheAdaptation: They're sisters as well Lotor's nieces, Cam's cousins and Sensei Watanabe's nieces as well; Wendinu and Furabijo have no familial relation with each other, Tau Zant, Shurikenger or the Oboro family in ''Hurricaneger''.
545* {{The Starscream}}s: They tried to pull this out of ObfuscatingStupidity. As a result, they were left to die in Lothor's self-destructing base in "Storm Before The Calm", but Cam, Hunter and Blake saved their bacons. [[spoiler: Double Subverted as Lothor admits [[TheChessmaster he told them to]], but felt they were a little to enthusiastic about it.]] [[spoiler: They were able to pull it off more successfully in the Dino Thunder crossover, resulting in Sensei being freed just in time to keep the BrainwashedAndCrazy Wind Ninjas from wreaking havoc on their Dino Thunder counterparts]].
546* SparedByTheAdaptation: They survived the season unlike their Hurricanger counterparts.
547* TangledFamilyTree: Marah and Kapri are Lothor's nieces by marriage, but it's unclear whether their aunt/uncle used to be married to Lothor, married an unmentioned Watanabe sibling, or was Lothor's sister-in-law (Cam's mother).
548* UnwittingPawn: By the end of the series, Marah and Kapri have come to realize that [[spoiler:Lothor is using them for his plan to open the Abyss of Evil.]]
549* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: When Tori's Dolphin Zord bites Kapri's zord, the latter says that she hates fish. However Kapri's ''worst fear'' is spiders, while Marah's is being laughed at.
550* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: In the finale, [[spoiler:Lothor abandons Marah and Kapri, along with Cam, on his self-destructing ship after activating the Abyss of Evil]].
551* YourMakeupIsRunning: After Marah's pet fish dies, her mascara runs down her face and she goes through several dozen tissues crying after her pet fish dies. In another episode, both girls have their makeup smeared when they get sprayed with a hose.

571
572--> ''Will there never be a day that is marked for victory? Will I always have to suffer at the hands of the Power Rangers? Tell me, when will it end?''
573
574A kabuki robot and Lothor's main general. He's one of the few serious villains, and often has to keep his boss and his fellow generals on-track when it comes to battling the Rangers. He would fight the Rangers on his own on both the ground, and in the Megazord battles with his own series of Zords.
575----
576* AllThereInTheManual: The toyline states he's actually an ant-like alien creature controlling a mechanical body on the inside (like his ''Hurricanger'' counterpart). Nothing in the series even remotely suggests such a thing. [[spoiler: The tiny alien creature controlling a mechanical body on the inside idea was used for General Tynamon in ''[[Series/PowerRangersNinjaSteel Power Rangers (Super) Ninja Steel]]'' ]]
577* {{Bowdlerize}}: His death scene is a bit less violent than in Hurricaneger, editing out Vexacus stabbing him in the gut.
578* TheDragon: Lothor's second in command and the only one who seems to take defeating the Rangers seriously.
579* DualWielding: He wields two swords stored in his shoulders.
580* TheEvilGenius: He makes robots, enlarges the MonsterOfTheWeek and does the scheming.
581* HyperCompetentSidekick: Is, at least early on, the main reason why Lothor's plans tended to work.
582* NoMouth: He often finds himself mocked for this.
583* NotSoAboveItAll: Zurgane is typically TheComicallySerious OnlySaneMan of Lothor's army, but he drops this persona at times.
584** He displays some dancing moves for his fellow villains on two occasions. The first time Lothor orders him to to improve morale, but the second time he does so on his own accord and clearly enjoys it.
585** He laughs at a sarcastic quip Lothor makes while chewing out Choobo.
586** He introduces a new monster (General Trayf) in the style of a fight promoter.
587* OnlySaneMan: Until Vexacus joined, he was the only villain who took the Rangers seriously and his plans and ideas were more successful. He's the only villain, one of the few in the franchise, who suggested attacking the Rangers when they ''can't'' morph.
588* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Zurgane is a literal translation of his Japanese name, Sargain.
589* SurroundedByIdiots: Even more so than his boss.
590* UndyingLoyalty: No matter how... odd Lothor's plans and mannerisms are, Zurgane never ceases his loyalty and fears disappointing him.
591* AVillainNamedZrg: The first syllable in his name is pronounced ''Zurg''.
592* VillainousBreakdown: He suffers one during the finale of "General Deception." Considering what happened to him immediately afterward, it doubles as TemptingFate.
593* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Zurgane urges Lothor to kill the captured Thunder Rangers rather than brainwash them.
594* WreckedWeapon: Both of his swords are broken when he is mortally wounded by Vexacus.

606Lothor's green-skinned lieutenant. The ButtMonkey of Lothor's army, not particularly bright but with a lot of strength.
607----
608* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Choobo is a DumbMuscle with the personality of a MommasBoy. Chuzubo on the other hand, is not.
609* AdaptationalDumbass: His Sentai counterpart is a GeniusBruiser.
610* TheBrute: Choobo is the dumb and powerful comic relief. Outside of his plan against the Thunder Rangers, he's mostly there for laughs until the finale.
611* DumbMuscle: Blake's quote above says everything you need to know about him.
612* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Choobo is an incredibly unlucky dimwit who doesn't take part in many battles, but he also strikes some significant blows against the heroes.
613** He's the one who shrinks and captures all of the other ninja students in the premiere.
614** He's willing to help kill [[spoiler:Marah and Kapri]] in the finale.
615** He tricks the Thunder Rangers into being brainwashed.
616** After Lothor banishes him, he steals a scroll of empowerment and almost defeats the Rangers.
617* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: In the finale, Choobo flees Lothor's ship after it's rigged to self-destruct.
618* SimpletonVoice: As per usual with fat Power Rangers villains.
619* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Like Zurgane above, Choobo is a direct translation of Chuzubo.
620* SparedByTheAdaptation: Chuzubo is the first of the Jakanja to die, and that's even before Shurikenger comes into play. Here, Choobo is merely shrunken after his great plot to turn the Thunder Rangers back against the Wind Rangers fails. He returns to normal a few episodes later, and is demoted back to comic relief.
621* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:Interestingly, he's not shown exploding when hit by Shane's Battlizer, and he's never shown being thrown into the abyss like the other villains. There's the possibility he just chose to run away, or his defeat was just off screen.]]
622* VillainousCrush: In the filler "Snip It, Snip It Good", one line suggests he has one for Tori. However, unlike most examples, he doesn't make moves on her or become an AbhorrentAdmirer towards her, though given his personality it's unlikely he'd have gone through with it.
623* YouHaveFailedMe: In "Return of Thunder", Lothor banishes him from his ship once he finds out about Choobo's plans.

634--> ''I don't have time to waste with an over-the-hill ninja warlord.''
635
636A shark themed bounty hunter, Vexacus originally came to Earth to hunt for Skyla and take her powers. However, after Shane gained them, he joined Lothor's forces as the head general, although he himself had plans to take the latter out for his own goals.
637----
638* AdaptationalWimp: His sentai counterpart Sandaaru is a master manipulator and enough of a threat he usurps his master, Tau Zant and is effectively the BigBad of the final stretch of the series. In contrast, Vexacus is still cunning and competent, [[spoiler:but gets totally outplayed, manipulated and disposed of by Tau Zant's Power Rangers counterpart Lothor.]]
639* ArchEnemy: To Shane Clarke.
640* {{BFS}}: He wields a long, nasty-looking sword.
641* BountyHunter: Self-described, although he's only hunting Skyla so he can take her power for himself. After Shane destroys his spaceship, he joins up with Lothor for lack of any other options.
642* {{Bowdlerize}}: Him and the Thunder Megazord stabbing each other was (rather clumsily) edited to have them slash each other instead.
643* ComicallySerious: In contrast to the more LaughablyEvil characters of the series, this provides his moments of levity thanks to his serious nature.
644* CurbStompBattle: Almost every fight he takes part in has him dishing out these.
645* DragonWithAnAgenda: Takes this place in Lothor's army after his debuts.
646* KnightOfCerebus: The shows rears into dark territory once he arrives. He murders Skyla, his plans are more menacing, he's the strongest of Luthor's generals, and he even attempts to betray his own generals to become a serious typical ''Power Rangers'' villain.
647* NoodleIncident: He has a nasty history with Lothor.
648* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Takes down Zurgane and Motodrone this way.
649* TeamKiller: He takes out Zurgane and Motodrone on his way up the ladder to Lothor.
650* ThreateningShark: He can summon a "land shark" construct to ride on. He even looks like one.
651* TheSociopath: Even Lothor, with his own hidden master plan and rather callous regard for his own family, is unable to come to his level given his LaughablyEvil demeanor, which Vexacus doesn't have.
652* TheStarscream: He was planning on it, but was taken out by the Rangers ahead of time. [[spoiler: Ultimately revealed to be part of [[TheChessmaster Lothor's]] EvilPlan.]]
653* TookALevelInBadass: Shane was able to hold out against him in his debut, even when a fight with him using Ninja Sword Gold Mode. Vexacus' later fights have him easily defeating the Rangers single-handedly.
654* VileVillainSaccharineShow: Although ''Ninja Storm'' is the first ''Power Rangers'' series to have a truly light-hearted tone, Vexacus is still a very dark and dangerous villain - he destroyed both Zurgane and Motodrone on screen, tried to upstage Lothor as leader and never showed any remorse for any of his comrades.
655* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: By the end of the series, he disposes of virtually all the generals [[spoiler:as part of Lothor's plan to open the Abyss of Evil.]]

669Perry was a motorcycle mechanic that, in a freak accident, became Motodrone, a mutant mechanical entity. While Hunter was able to save Perry from his alternate personality, Zurgane took the scrapped parts and rebuilt Motodrone into a new general.
670----
671* AdaptationalLateAppearance: Motodrone's ''Hurricenger'' counterpart appeared in the premiere episode. Here, Motodrone appears well into the second half of ''Ninja Storm''.
672* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Manmaruba was an insectoid alien who metamorphosed into various forms, Motodrone is instead a cyborg that was once a human.
673* AdaptedOut: Manmaruba's first form, a small insect, was not adapted as either a form of his or a separate character.
674* AIIsACrapshoot: Perry wanted "the perfect rider", but it turned out to be a supervillain and went real bad after he merged with his intelligence. Go figure.
675* ArchEnemy: To Hunter Bradley
676* BadassBiker: "I'll show you what this "heap" can do!"
677* BadassLongcoat: He tends to wear one for no reason other than to look cool.

679* DecompositeCharacter: In ''Eye of the Storm'', he fights alongside a powerful monster called Eyezak, who is actually his OneWingedAngel from from ''Hurricaneger''.
680* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Because of the decomposite trope above, Motodrone dies at Vexacus' hands as opposed to the Hurricane Megazord like his Sentai counerpart did (which befell Eyezak).
681* TheEvilGenius: As long as it is related to cars or motorcycles.
682* ImMelting: How Vexacus killed him. His remains stayed around until they were discovered by a disgusted pair of Marah and Kapri.

697An ancient warlord that attacked the local village 2,000 years ago, he was accidentally awakened during a battle between the Green Ranger and Motodrone, and immediately joined Lothor's forces.
698----
699* AdaptationalJerkass: Satarakura is more of a comic relief villain than TheStarscream in ''Hurricanger'' and even his brief treacherous stint was out of loyalty to Sandaaru than his own ambitions.
700* TheBeastmaster: Shimazu can control a trio of wolf monsters called the Wolfblades.
701* TheComicallySerious: Like Vexacus, he attempts to use his expertise as a former Japanese warlord as a threat, easily capable of defeating four rangers at once. His calm, sneaky, and cunning nature are indeed notable, but in a series where the comic relief characters have more prevalence, he's often seen as the butt of jokes.
702* DeathByIrony: He allies himself with Marah and Kapri to save himself from Vexacus, only to be killed by them under Vexacus' orders.
703* EliteMooks: His Wolfblades are in between the strength of the Kelzaks and a MonsterOfTheWeek.
704* TakenForGranite: Until the crossfire from a battle brought him back to life.

727* AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Like with ''Lost Galaxy'', ''Ninja Storm'' decided to throw away the faction-based monsters from the Sentai and have the monsters under one banner. [[note]]For curiosity's sake, the factions included: the Bionin Corps (led by Choobo), the Mechanic Corps (led by Zurgane), the Mask Corps (led by Shimazu), and the Phantom Beast Corps (led by Vexacus). Each group also had a different method to [[MakeMyMonsterGrow enlarge the monsters]] (the Bionin Corps used the Scroll of Empowerment, the Mechanic Corps used a missile that turned into a "Copy Giant" robot that would scan a defeated monster and turn into a duplicate, and the Mask Corps used a mask that fused to the remains of a monster and grew it); only the Scroll of Empowerment was used in ''Ninja Storm'', albeit fired from Lothor's ship with a handheld device a la the Copy Giant method, as opposed to a bazooka.[[/note]]
728* BackFromTheDead: All of them (minus Inflatron and Eyezak) were brought back in the finale.
729* ConservationOfNinjutsu:[[spoiler: Throughout the season, even the "weak" were still strong enough to take on a Ranger one on one. When they all return as an army in the season finale, they are so easily defeated that they are virtually indistinguishable from the Kelzaks.]]
