* ActorAllusion: Jun Fukuyama is playing [[CodeGeass a hammy, masked aristocrat associated with the color black]].
** The [=ToQgers=] dig up the real name of their hometown, Subaru Beach. Hikari was previously [[KamenRiderFourze Iseki Jiro from Subaruboshi High School.]]
** Look carefully at the Wagon helmet with its heart-shaped black visor. Does it look kinda like [[JyudenSentaiKyoryuger KyoryuPink?]] That's because they have the same suit actor!
** They bring in AkiraKushida to sing the new {{Leitmotif}} for Safari Gaoh, which is interesting as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5HOuCn4eJw Kushida actually sang a jingle for a safari park once!]]
* DawsonCasting: The show establishes that the [=ToQgers=] are approximately the same age, having been in the same class and all; which makes it kind of funny that Jin Hiramaki (Tokatti) is 27, which would make him 11 years older than the youngest cast member Moritaka Ai (Kagura).
** Minor example would be Riria (Mio), who is turning 21, while the rest of the team (sans the above mentioned) are in their late teens.
** The age difference between Tokatti's and Kagura's actors was given a major lampshade by Wagon in #2.
** HilariousInHindsight:Turns out it's [[spoiler: way more apparent as the core 5 are technically kids!]]
* FanNickname: Rainbow [[Anime/SpaceRunawayIdeon Ideon]] for [=ToQOh=], both have VerticalMechaFins.
** Rainbow Bright/Brite for Akira due to his new name loosely translating to that of the 80's [[WesternAnimation/RainbowBrite cartoon character]].
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: #3 has Wagon taking selfies with some really suggestive poses.
** #3 was also where the radar operator fell asleep. Fans already noticed this when the toys were previewed, but when the red train part is half transformed, [=ToQOh=] looked like [[http://cheezburger.com/8094420224 he's really happy to see you…]] [[http://31.media.tumblr.com/65a3b026b2d3c2f50f8e1b8b6af63d3d/tumblr_n1tcprUiQG1rjoe31o1_400.gif Oh! And they used it to get out of a coffin.]]
* HeyItsThatGuy:
** Mio ([=ToQ=] 3) is Yuna from ''[[Series/{{Garo}} Zero: Black Blood]]''.
*** She's also the love interest to a character of the day in ''Series/TensouSentaiGoseiger'', being friends with [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGoBusters Nakamura-san]].
** Hikari ([=ToQ=] 4) is Jiro Iseki from ''Series/KamenRiderFourze''.
*** Bonus points for the fact that his character in said series was best friends with someone named Ryusei.
** Akira ([=ToQ=] 6) appeared as a child in ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger''. (episode 39)
** [[JukenSentaiGekiranger GekiChopper]] shows up in episode 9.
** [[spoiler:The Emperor of Darkness]] is [[KamenRiderOOO Nobunaga.]]
** The Emperor from TheEmperorsNewClothes from #25 is [[SamuraiSentaiShinkenger ShinkenBrown!]]
* HeyItsThatVoice: They have some really famous voice actors for this series.
** [[Creator/KappeiYamaguchi Tic]][[Manga/RanmaOneHalf ket]] should probably stay away from cold water, but at least he's not using his [[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam Dragon Gundam]].
** Ticket and [[Creator/YuiHorie Wagon]] being involved in a fight against "{{Shadow|Archetype}}s" is [[VideoGame/{{Persona 4}} nothing new]]. Unfortunately for them, [[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Theo]][[Creator/JunichiSuwabe dore]] and [[VideoGame/{{Persona 4}} Do]][[Creator/UnshoIshizuka jima]] are [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monsters of the Week]] this time around, and [[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Taka]][[Creator/NobutoshiCanna ya]], [[Creator/MasayaOnosaka Jin]], and [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/{{Persona 4}} Ada]][[Creator/MitsuakiMadono chi]]]] also get turns to antagonize their side.
*** It doesn't help that Dojima, [[spoiler:Adachi]], and [[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Shin]][[Creator/KazuyaNakai jiro]] are also [[Series/ChoushinseiFlashman Ra Deus]], [[Creator/EngineSentaiGoOnger Kitaneidas, and Hiramechimedes]], respectively.
*** Ticket and Wagon also fought alongside Dojima's nephew [[Creator/DaisukeNamikawa Spee]][[Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger dor]] and, ironically enough, [[Creator/TomokazuSeki Bul]][[Series/ChourikiSentaiOhranger dont]] (who also narrated ''[[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Gokaiger]]'') and [[Creator/RomiPark Usukawa]] [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Dayu]]. Also, [[Creator/KosukeToriumi the President]] is ''[[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Junpei]]'' of all people.
*** Wagon is also a former [[Manga/LoveHina resident of Hinata Springs]] and a [[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima talented gymnast]].
*** In addition, [[VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} Nep]][[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMk2 gear]] became the Tokkyugers' ally. Funnily enough, considering that [[Creator/RieTanaka Neptune]] (who is also [[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Mitsuru]]) became [[Series/KamenRiderFourze one of the Horoscopes]].
*** Wagon sounds like Chie, but behaves like [[Creator/RieKugimiya Rise]].
** [[Creator/JunFukuyama Baron]] [[Anime/CodeGeass Nero]] seems to have joined the Shadow Line, so he can get the forces needed to fight Britannia. Then he invites [[Manga/SpecialA Kei Takishima]] and [[Manga/VampireKnight Hanabusa Aido]].
** [[Creator/HaruhikoJo General Schwartz]] [[Disney/TheLionKing killed Mufasa]].
** [[Creator/NorikoHidaka Gre]][[Manga/RanmaOneHalf eta]] looks like a maid more than a daughter. Just don't tell [[Anime/SuitePrettyCure Cure Muse]] her mom's gone evil again.
** [[Creator/AyaHisakawa Mad]][[Anime/AhMyGoddess ame]] [[Anime/SailorMoon Noir]] has also joined the dark side. As has [[Anime/HeartcatchPrettyCure Cure Moonlight]].
** [[Creator/HisaoEgawa Bag Shadow]] is [[WesternAnimation/ThomasTheTankEngine S. C. Ruffey, Derek, Cranky, Diesel, the Slate Trucks, and Jem Cole]]; and, as S. C. Ruffey, got to antagonize [[Creator/HikaruMidorikawa Aki]][[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} hiko]] (Oliver, Bertie, and Harvey) for a while.
*** [[Creator/KoichiSakaguchi Stove Shadow]] is Victor and Ferdinand.
** [[Creator/KokiUchiyama Marionette Shadow]] is [[KingdomHearts Roxas]].
** [[Creator/YuichiNagashima Hammer Shadow]] is [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Shitari]].
** [[Creator/TakahiroMizushima Jack-in-the-Box Shadow]] is [[Anime/CodeGeass Rolo]]. Thus he punched the ticket to go to [[Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia Finland]].
** [[Creator/{{KENN}} Hound Shadow]] is [[Anime/YuGiOhGX Jaden Yuki]], [[Franchise/AceAttorney Apollo Justice]], [[Literature/BrothersConflict Fuuto Asahina]], [[Manga/UchuuKyoudai Hibito Nanba]], and [[VideoGame/SoulSeries Patroklos Alexander]].
** The Emperor was [[SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Richard Brown]].
** Coin Shadow's human form was [[MiraiSentaiTimeRanger TimeGreen]] & the bath-house owner was [[NinpuuSentaiHurricaneger Mugensai]] in Station 26.
** [[Creator/TaikiMatsuno Chair Shadow]] is [[Series/RescueSentaiGoGoFive Pierre]] and [[Series/NinpuuSentaiHurricaneger Shurikenger]].
** [[Creator/NobuoTobita Fountain Pen Shadow]] is [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Kamille Bidan]], [[VideoGame/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Captain Gordon]], and [[Series/TensouSentaiGoseiger Brajira]].
* IKnewIt: Many fans predicted that [[spoiler: the Rangers were still kids taking the form of adults]].
* MythologyGag: [=ToQ=]-Oh Tank delivers [[ChourikiSentaiOhRanger punches, eh?]] [[ChoujinSentaiJetman And in a hyperactive, spastic manner?]]
** Perhaps it's a bit of a stretch, but in Go-Onger, Carrigator was Engine #6 and orange. There wasn't a Ranger based on him, but with the same color, number, and two railway lines on his suit looking a lot like the Go-Ongers' seatbelt designs, not to mention the shovel-teeth over his visor looking rather like an animal motif, [=ToQ=] #6 ends up looking ''very'' much like a Go-On Orange ''would'' have.
** Rangers toppling over in the OP counts as one to ''HikoninSentaiAkibaranger''.
* NamesTheSame: Get used to calling the red and blue [=ToQgers=] [[Series/KamenRider Ichigo and Nigo]] [[note]]''No. 1 and No. 2''[[/note]]. When said Riders as well as Series/KamenRiderV3 meet the [=ToQgers=] in the ''Gaim'' crossover special, Mio even brings up the fact that V3 isn't called "Sango" [[note]]''No. 3''[[/note]] like she is. As it turns out, [[spoiler: Sango would come [[Film/SuperHeroTaisenGPKamenRider3 later]].]]
** The [=ToQ=] Changer has the title of ''Transformation Brace'', which was previously given to the [[Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger Shift Changer used by Go-On Green and Black]].
** The Shadow Line emperor's name is Z, just like Doctor Z from ''Series/HikoninSentaiAkibaranger''.
** As it's pronounced 'zed,' comparisons to a slightly more well-known (in America, anyway) [[MightyMorphinPowerRangers lord named Zedd]] have been mentioned.
** Especially since Gritta is going to be his bride. Rita and Zedd, Gritta and Zed!
* OlderThanTheyLook: Would you have ever guessed that Tsutomu Sekine (The Conductor) is 60? The guy could easily pass for 50! [[http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-osgCoTElOO8/UuXfqQ96lQI/AAAAAAAAtgU/BbYbO9xHNZY/s1600/TsutomuSekine.jpg Maybe 40 when not in that uniform.]]
** Crossing [[IncrediblylamePun (heh)]] into HeyItsThatGuy, a past Sentai role of his: a nameless truck driver in ''HimitsuSentaiGoranger.''
* PlayingAgainstType: [[MiraiSentaiTimeRanger Sion/TimeGreen]] as the MonsterOfTheWeek anyone?
* WeInterruptThisProgram: Episode 46 failed to air in it's intended timeslot, due to breaking news about the murder of a journalist by terrorists.
** [[AvertedTrope Averted]] TheResolutionWillNotBeTelevised: This pre-emption delayed the premiere of ''Ninninger'' so that [=ToQger=] could air it's last episode.
* This is quite possibly the ONLY SuperSentai in which [[spoiler: the rangers don't directly kill off ANY of the major villains.]]
** The [=ToQgers=] dig up the real name of their hometown, Subaru Beach. Hikari was previously [[KamenRiderFourze Iseki Jiro from Subaruboshi High School.]]
