Go To

1Series/MahouSentaiMagiranger is at times unabashedly silly and goofy, taking advantage of its magic motif to great comedic effect.
2* Nearly every moment after Mandora Boy/Ozu siblings/Hikaru/Smokey explains the functions of the spells. The obvious one in Stage 07 is that Kai blab that Tsubasa had a scary face but have a good heart. An angry Tsubasa then tries to make an eternal slumber elixir with a bunch of ingredients. Another one in stage 4, the siblings tried to combine into Magi King untransformed.
3* In Stage 1, Kai climbs up the side of a building to get a kid's balloon back. This also gets picked up on local news.
4** The whole conversation when they first see the news is hilarious, too--in particular, Tsubasa's reaction.
5-->'''Tsubasa''': (''seeing the news'') Man, there are reckless idiots out this early?\
6'''Makito''': I'd heard idiots and smoke like high places. Looks like it's true.\
7'''Tsubasa''': Don't sound so impressed.\
8'''Kai''': (''on news--waves at camera'') Oh yeah!\
9'''Everyone Else''': [[BigWhat EHHHHH?!?!]]\
10'''Miyuki''': Kai!!!\
11'''Tsubasa''': (''[[FacePalm Face Palming]]'') Oh, man, it's ''our'' idiot.\
12'''Makito''': What in the world is he doing?!
13* The first appearance of Mandora Boy, when the siblings are tidying up the Magic Room. He screams when pulled out (he's a mandragora, after all), causing everyone else to scream and collapse...except Tsubasa, who had headphones on and didn't hear a thing. He gives everyone a "What the hell...?" expression when he sees them collapsed.
14* Stage 5. Every moment Houka spoils the moment between her youngest brother and Yamazaki Yuka. In the end, Yuka likes Magi Red and Houka easily suggests that Kai should go out as his alter ego. But this causes Kai to completely snap at Houka, to which Houka quickly transforms into her bee form and flies away from her angry brother.
15* One time, Hikaru says Miyuki's cooking is better than Urara's, prompting her to grab his cheek.
16* Speaking of Houka, her BlatantLies about being just an ordinary post box each time Kai catches her using that form to eavesdrop on him and Yamazaki. (her shapeshifting has a MorphicResonance drawback; everything she turns into is pink).
17* Kai's CornerOfWoe for the Omake in Stage 14, as once again [[LovesMyAlterEgo Yamazaki chooses MagiRed over him.]]
18* When Tsubasa and Makito encounter an English-speaking tourist.
19--> '''Tsubasa''': "[[GratuitousEnglish Ai...kanto...supeeku...ingurishu...]]
20--> '''Makito''': [[spoiler: "[[SugarWiki/SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage Yeah, sure, where would you like to go?]]"]]
21* Magiranger VS Dekaranger - Hikaru and Tetsu [[WholesomeCrossDresser cross-dressed]] as women and Ban addressing Hoji as ex-partner.
22** Jasmine’s reaction to the above is just as priceless.
23--> “[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe I can’t believe this]]. (AsideGlance) Or would [[{{Pun}} “majii”]] be more appropriate?”
24* From Stage 10: Makito's leading a round of towel rubdowns with Kai and Tsubasa when the girls pop out from the door. Makito calls them out to join - and [[TeamMom Urara's]] jumping at the chance.
25* Stage 13: There are a few funny moments:
26** 1. Makito awkwardly admits to Urara that he lost the collection bag and tried to sneak away. He panics the moment when Urara suddenly screams loudly and covered her mouth with his hand not to make the others hear.
27** 2. Urara implementing the Ozu economizing regulations and her siblings' reaction when she's being strict on every action. When Houka asks for some money from Urara so that she could go to a hair shop, Urara tells her sister that she will cut her hair for her...with her scaring Houka by snapping a pair of scissors. Kai was taking a shower until it was interrupted by Urara, who scolds him for using too much water. Tsubasa and Makito were watching a quiz show on TV, before Urara turns it off (as well as the other light devices) and horrifies both her brothers by looking sinister with a candle.
28** 3. Flashback when Urara remembered their mother. Tsubasa asked where his boxing glove was, but if you notice beforehand, Kai was wearing the other glove his brother was searching for, unnoticed by their mother.
29** 4. When Makito explains how pitiful his siblings' attitude but has good traits, Kai strikes back with calling him 'Baka Aniki'.
30** 5. The collection bag was found. Where? Under the table where Urara sat earlier in the episode. The funny moment? Makito's response when he noticed his siblings glared at him for being careless and Kai suggest that each of the siblings should punch him 100 times. Makito's excuse, slowly sneaking away until he got chased.
31* Stage 39: The sequence when Kai and Houka first realize that they have [[FreakyFridayFlip swapped bodies]]. The capstone? [[spoiler:Tsubasa grabbing Mandora Boy to stun everyone so they calm down ([[CallBack with Tsubasa himself putting on a pair of headphones to block out the sound]]), and the very next thing we see is Mandora Boy in the corner, sobbing.]]
32** The scene begins with Kai (in Houka's body) entering completely oblivious to his situation until his siblings begin spotting mannerisms unique to Kai and not Houka. Houka (in Kai's body) comes flying in moments later in a panic (with "Kai" having her pink jacket on, on top of that). The two start piecing things together, resulting in a CrotchGrabSexCheck of utmost hilarity.
33--> '''Houka (Kai's body):''' (grabbing chest) Nothing. Nothing. (grabbing crotch) ''...Something!''
34--> '''Kai (Houka's body):''' (hesitantly feeling chest) Nn... Something, a ''little'' something, nothing...
35--> '''Houka:''' [[ACupAngst What do you mean "a little something"?!]]
36** Houka then tried to defend herself, saying that hers might be smaller compared to Urara's, and Urara (still thinking Houka is Kai) starts running up angrily to demand how he knows that information, then when Hikaru tries to figure out what's going on, Urara turns him around and starts ''shaking his head''.
37** Later on, Houka explains to Kai that she has dates (and, yes, that's plural [[ReallyGetsAround for a reason]]) that he'll have to keep in her place. Seeing as how Kai can't act even remotely attracted to any of them, he takes care of them the best way he can: he, as Houka, ''breaks up with them''! Even better, the screen divides to show fifteen boys going "[[BigWhat EHHHH?!]]".
38* Starting in 2021, [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger Umeko]]'s actress Mika Kikuchi (who also sang an InsertSong for ''Magiranger'' and is very friendly with its cast) held a series of livestreams where she recorded her live reactions while watching different Sentai series, ''Magiranger'' included. During [[https://youtu.be/5rCoxUeNB30?t=3311 the stream for Stage 36]], which Kikuchi held with Asami Kai (Urara) and Ayumi Beppu (Houka) as guests, Kikuchi, completely unspoiled for the series, caught onto the ShipTease between Urara and Hikaru and (presumably referencing from [[Film/SpaceSheriffGavanVsTokusouSentaiDekaranger her own experience with Sen and Umeko]]) started floating the idea of them getting married in some DistantSequel twenty years later. Cue a sudden, very awkward pause from Kai and Beppu, obviously thinking about Stage 47, where you can ''feel'' them trying not to say anything; you can even see Kai give an AsideGlance to the camera and grin as if to go "don't tell her!"
39** As for Kikuchi's reaction when she got to the actual relevant moment in Stage 47, [[https://youtu.be/SNwxCPjc4MA?t=1378 it's exactly what you'd expect]].
40--> '''Kikuchi:''' (''giggling'') "Legend Power going out of control"...
41--> '''Ichikawa:''' "Legend Power", [[UnusualEuphemism that's what they're calling it]].
42** Some time later, [[https://twitter.com/kaicomaru/status/1542502555028451328 this tweet]] from Kai, followed by [[https://twitter.com/kikuchi_mika/status/1542515781883154442 this response]] from Kikuchi followed by [[https://twitter.com/kzKEvzydE6zALJL/status/1542524712169132035 another]] from director Noboru Takemoto:
43--> '''Kai:''' I was looking at my phone on the sofa just now, I felt something touch my head, I thought it might be the cat passing behind me as always, but the cat wasn't there, so I was scared and asked [my husband] "'do I have something on my head?" and of all things, it was a frog... why are there frogs falling in my house. Why.
44--> '''Kikuchi''': Kiss it, ribbit.
