* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Animus can get hit with a heavy dose of this during his arc. Is he just upset that the humans who were supposed to defend the planet are destroying it instead or is he just an environmental terrorist who has the tendencies of a fascist? When Animus revealed that taking away the Rangers' powers was just a test to see how dedicated they are to protecting the Earth, did he ''really'' intend for there to be a test, or did he just say that to avoid getting called out by the Rangers?
* {{Anvilicious}}: The Animus Arc.
* CompleteMonster: Master Org. "I finished off your parents, and I ''enjoyed every single minute of it!''"
** Worse? He's the first villain in ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' history to [[spoiler:willingly become a monster. All previous villains either come from a race that was AlwaysChaoticEvil, were kidnapped and ''raised'' to be evil, just generally raised to be evil to begin with, or otherwise having had no control over the consequences of their reasons for being a monster. Dr. Adler ''willingly'' ate the seeds for the expressed purpose of brutally murdering Cole's parents, all for a petty grudge.]] Taking this into consideration, he is quite possibly one of the most sickeningly evil villains in ''Power Rangers'' history. Cole outright says he can't sense a heart in the man.
* CreatorsPet: Cole, so much so that when rumors began his actor, Ricardo Medina, Jr., might be appearing in ''[[Series/PowerRangersSamurai Samurai]]'', a season whose source material (''SamuraiSentaiShinkenger'') fans are rabidly protective of, people began having fits.
** That is, until the fans met [[EnsembleDarkhorse Deker]]. And for some fans who consider ''Samurai'' one of the franchise's ''worst'' seasons, Medina as Deker is one of the ''only'' highlights.
* CrossoverShip: Taylor/Eric, when the Time Force Rangers are in town.
** ShipTease: It also implies that Lucas and Nadira got back together.
* EarWorm: The Wild Force theme song.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Zen-Aku.
** Not coincidentally, Merrick is one of the most popular {{Sixth Ranger}}s since [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Tommy]]. Must be the general [[BadAss Badassitude]] and [[BadassBeard goatee]].
* EpilepticTrees: Danny Delgado has the same last name as the [[Series/PowerRangersSPD SPD]] Yellow Ranger, Z. Since ''SPD'' takes place TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture and Z's parents were canonically scientists involved in creating Ranger powers, people think Z might be Danny's daughter.
** Also, Venjix shares the same name as [[Series/PowerRangersRPM the virus that destroyed 99.9% of the world]], thus launching trees discussing whether or not the two are the same.
* EvilIsCool: Zen-Aku. Fans [[EnsembleDarkhorse adore him]], so much that he was brought back for another episode and again at the end of the series as a being separate from Merrick... [[FridgeLogic somehow]].
* {{Fandumb}}: There are many in the fandom who vehemently deny that Wild Force has any connection to Disney (calling it and counting it as a Saban season) when the buyout happened in pre-production, and the first four episodes had a ''Disney Enterprises'' copyright.
* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: When Onikage helps Toxica and Jindrax infiltrate the Animarium in the middle of the night, the Rangers end up confronting them in their pyjamas.
-->'''Onikage:''' So these are the famous Power Rangers... interesting outfits.\\
'''Jindrax:''' (to Danny) Nice teddy bear.
* FoeYay:
** Zen-Aku and Merrick.
** Cole and Master Org.
* HilariousInHindsight: This won't be the last time we would see [[TensouSentaiGoseiger an environmentally conscious mecha]].
* ItsTheSameSoItSucks: As mentioned above, the show was largely criticized for being too similar to ''Gaoranger''.
* MagnificentBastard: Onikage.
* {{Misblamed}}: People have noted that a lot of ''Wild Force'''s problems are actually coming from a direct translation of ''Gaoranger'', such as the blunt GreenAesop.
* NightmareFuel:
** How [[spoiler:Cole's parents died. The newly formed Master Org unleashed vines that ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice.]]
* RunningTheAsylum: Mostly when it comes to the teamups (see, TropesAreNotBad.)
* TearJerker: No matter what you think of Cole, you gotta admit that the episode where [[spoiler:he finds out the truth about his parents's deaths]] is genuinely sad.
* TheScrappy: Kite. A whiny little brat who completely disparages the Rangers' efforts and sacrifices, rants on and on about how HumansAreBastards, is perfectly willing to abandon them and Shayla to die, hammers in the GreenAesop in the most annoying, tedious and {{Anvilicious}} way possible, is of little help when actually needed, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and has an annoying, whiny voice]].
** Doesn't help that he was Animus (which makes him a scrappy by proxy), who because of his hatred for humanity who even after revealing that him taking the Zords and the rangers' powers away, and him putting Shayla in a coma was a SecretTestOfCharacter, still didn't take back any of the things he said about humanity.
*** It also doesn't help the fact Animus is surprisingly weak in combat and that if the Rangers die the nature is doomed.
* ToughActToFollow: Got a lot of this, having to follow fan favorite ''Time Force''.
* VillainDecay: Remember that HUGE planet-destroying serpent robot that completely dwarfed the other zords and couldn't be fought, only ran away from? Yeah well, now it's about 1/5 of its size, and can be defeated by 1 guy on a flying motorbike. And its planet-destroying laser won't even kill the guy flying inside its mouth. Though to be perfectly fair, this was due to ExecutiveMeddling forcing them to axe a far more impressive Serpentera fight.
** Considering both comments above about Kite and Serpentera I thought they were connected. Thus Kite A.K.A. [[spoiler:Animus]] gave Cole the new vehicle to defeat Serpentera because [[spoiler:as a god he knew that Cole would need a godly weapon to stop Serpentera]]
