3
4	The GIDES are an evil group of AlienInvaders from the Andromeda galaxy who go from planet to planet gathering data on their lifeforms before destroying them when they're [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness no longer of use]]. When the GIDES come to Earth, a [[SpaceX space rabbit]] named Prapine recruits five humans from Earth to each wield the power of a different planet in the solar system and form the Kyuusei Sentai Wakusaver to defend the Earth against the forces of GIDES.

A DVD for the complete series was released on August 27th.

9
10	!Tropes:
11	* AliensAreBastards: The GIDES, being a group of HumanAliens from the Andromeda Galaxy who want to invade Earth.
12	* BossSubtitles: Whenever a major villain first appears, these pop up to introduce them.
13	* ButtMonkey: Prapine, who gets manhandled by the GIDES {{mooks}} quite often in the series.
14	* CaptainErsatz:
15	** The Wakusavers are obviously meant to be stand-ins for a generic Franchise/SuperSentai team, with their suits resembling a combination of the [[Series/GekisouSentaiCarranger Carrangers]], [[Series/GoGoSentaiBoukenger Boukengers]] and the [[Series/KaitouSentaiLupinrangerVSKeisatsuSentaiPatranger Patrangers]], though the numbering on their helmets brings to mind the ''Series/ChoudenshiBioman''.
16	** The GIDES seem to be based off to the Reconstructive Experiment Empire Mess from ''Series/ChoushinseiFlashman'', particularly in how their goal is to gather data on various lifeforms with the aim of creating the ultimate body for their leader. One of their executives even looks like Lee Keflen, the EvilGenius of Mess.
17	** Prapine meanwhile seems more based on Luna and Artemis from ''Manga/SailorMoon'', even wearing a SailorFuku as a nod to it.
18	** As the leader of an evil organization who communicates through his faction's symbol and keeps his true form hidden, [[BigBad Emperor Giga GIDES]] definitely takes some cues from [[Series/KamenRider the Great Leader]].
19	** One of the GIDES kaijin looks like the Film/{{Predator}}.
20	* TheChosenMany: The Wakusavers all appear to be this, as each holds an object that's precious to them that's really a brace changer that lets them become a Wakusaver.
21	* DisappearedDad: Yuuki's father was an astronaut who disappeared on a mission to space.
22	* DoNotAdjustYourSet: A variant. Otoha first tries reaching Reion, the candidate for Green Earth, by taking over his computer to send him a video message. Leon, a {{salaryman}} working at his father's company, ignores her and tries to keep on working until GIDES {{mooks}} burst into the room.
23	* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:The fifth episode ends with the forces of GIDES defeating and capturing the Wakusavers, with Otoha being the only one who gets away thanks to Prapine sacrificing himself.]]
24	* EverybodyLaughsEnding: The final episode of season 2 does this in a really ridiculous manner. From the point that Yuuki ends his final speech, the Wakusavers laugh together for ''45 seconds straight''. Not counting all the laughing they were doing beforehand.
25	* FiveManBand: As a five man {{Sentai}} team, the Wakusavers form one.
26	** Yuuki Katori/Red Mars is TheLeader of the team.
27	** Satoshi Mizusaki/Blue Mercury, a stoic photographer, is TheLancer.
28	** Leon Kido/Green Jupiter, a geeky salaryman who loves his computer, is TheSmartGuy.
29	** Makoto Hibino/Yellow Sun is TheBigGuy, given how his ballet moves make him great at fighting.
30	** Otoha Nishina/Pink Earth, the lone female and the one who gathered the team, is {{The Smurfette\|Principle}}.
31	** Prapine is the TeamPet as their animal companion.
32	* ImAHumanitarian: Larjula tells the Wakusavers they look delicious in her first encounter with the entire team.
33	* InMediasRes: Each episode of the first season shows a different Wakusaver being recruited, before flashing forward to the Wakusavers fighting against GIDES.
34	* MsFanservice: Larjula seems to be modeled around the "sexy villainess" archetype, wearing a {{Stripperiffic}} outfit that even shows off part of her buttcheeks.
35	* NoOneSeesTheBoss: TheEmperor of GIDES only communicates through a swirling projection of the GIDES emblem and doesn't actually appear in person.
36	* OddNameOut: The Wakusavers are all based on planets from Earth's solar system except for Yellow ''Sun''.
37	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: The second GIDES monster appears to be vampire themed, and is able to drain the Wakusavers powers by biting them.
38	* PaintingTheMedium: There are a few little details that give the series the appearance of an actual ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' program broadcast for children. Most notably, at the top-left corner of the screen is a clock indicating that the episodes are supposed to start airing in the Sunday morning 7:30 a.m. time block.
39	* PornWithPlot: While 5/6 episodes don't feature any pornographic content whatsoever, the sixth episode is a porno and serves as the conclusion to the series.
40	* RealMenWearPink: Makoto Hibino is a devoted ballet dancer. At the same time, he also managed to fight off a GIDES monster all by himself, partly by using ballet moves.
41	* {{Sentai}}: Barring the porn final episode, ''Wakusaver'' is a fairly standard take on the concept, being about a team of five multi-colored heroes assembled to fight monsters.
42	* StandardEvilOrganizationSquad: The Three Demon Lords of GIDES, who lead the forces of GIDES on the field.
43	* TransformationTrinket: The Planet Cubes, which the Wakusavers use to transform by inserting them into their brace changers.
