* AlternateAesopInterpretation: "Those who believe in the idea that it is the right of the strong to rule over the weak are fools just waiting to be used and exploited." The Kenma, who embodies the sterotypical mindset of TheSocialDarwinist and founded their school on this philosophy [[spoiler: are revealed to be [[UnwittingPawn Unwitting Pawns]] to Long as he's the one who convinced them to go through with the School Rebellion and to create Rin Juken Akugata all so they can help mold Rio into the god of destruction, deposing of them once he deemed their role finished. Rio and Mele themselves were pawns to Long until they came to see the folly of the ideals of Rin Juken and pulled an HellFaceTurn, directly leading to the defeat of the seemingly invincible Long.]]
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
** [[https://youtu.be/nTGSHFVRcUM The Opening]]. It... just ''has'' to be the best of SS openings ever.
** What better music for the Super Gekiranger transformations? Hit it, "''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OpI9IRg8c0 Kageki!]]''"
* CompleteMonster: [[spoiler:[[OurDragonsAreDifferent Long the Infernal Dragon]] is the [[BigBad true leader]] of the Genjūken. Growing bored of his ancient immortal life, Long [[ManipulativeBastard manipulates humanity]] and is responsible for hundreds of years of war and strife. Eventually deciding to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the world]] to alleviate his boredom, Long tries to corrupt Maku into the god of destruction, succeeding in turning him to the dark side, though his omnicidal goals are stopped. Trying the same with Jan and Rio, years later, Long destroys their hometown, killing Jan's parents and brainwashing the soul of his dead father into becoming one of his generals and trying to get him to murder his own son. Also corrupting Rio, [[TreacherousAdvisor Long acts as his right-hand-man, while truly guiding him down the path of evil]] in the hopes of cultivating the destruction he desires.]].
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Gou Fukami exemplifies this for being the very first Violet Ranger. He debuted mid-season.
* EvilIsCool: Rio is one of the villains in this show, but his cool, arrogant character, his sheer martial arts prowess, his monster form, his wardrobe and his redemption leave many fans awed by him.
* FanNickname: Gou received the nickname "[[GoroawaseNumber 523]]" (''Go-Ni-San'') in Japan, as he was most often referred to in the show as "Gou Nii-san" (Older Brother Gou) by Retsu.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff:
** For a Sentai series with less-than-impressive ratings (ending with a 5.2% series average) and low toy sales in its home country, Western Sentai fans ''really'' love Gekiranger, with many calling it the best Sentai.
** Unlike Japan, Gekiranger was overwhelmingly successful in terms of toy sales and TV ratings in Korea.
* HarsherInHindsight: In its 1st episode (episode 2), the mecha is in ankle deep water... while standing in the middle of the city during the monster fight. Fun unique visual when the episode aired Feburary 25, 2007, NOT after the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and the resultant tsunami.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** Yellow's suit actress also played Lily in episode 36. Guess what name was given to Geki Yellow's [[Series/PowerRangersJungleFury American counterpart]].
** The Akugata symbol vaguely resembles a pizza slice, and guess where the Gekirangers' American counterparts work at?
* OneTrueThreesome: Jan/Ran/Retsu.
* TearJerker:
** [[spoiler:Rio's and Mele's deaths in episode 48.]]
** After finding out that Suugu is none other than the soul of [[spoiler: Jan's father Dan]], from episode 40 - 44 Jan tries to do everything to get Suugu to remember his past life. It all culminates in 45 where Jan [[spoiler: [[MercyKill must destroy Suugu in order to free his father's soul]]. Jan follows through tearfully and his father's soul is freed]].
* TooCoolToLive: [[spoiler:Rio and Mele.]]
