    • Daigo's father was Billion, The Brute of Zone in Chikyuu Sentai Fiveman.
    • Ian's friend in Europe was Go-On Black.
    • Noboharu's sister was Deka Yellow.
    • Souji's father was both Goggle Black and Dyna Black.
  • Amy's butler was the Nouveau Riche with the gold-bearing tree in Episode 6 of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Talk about your Laser-Guided Karma.
  • In the flashback of Daigo as a child with his father, the young Daigo is played by Itsuki Shibuya, who played the child version of Saburo Kazeta (the new Inazuman) in Movie War Ultimatum.
  • Also, Ramirez is Gordo.
  • Nobu's late brother-in-law is Decade!Kabuto... suddenly being stuck in Clock Up seems better...
• Hey, It's That Voice!: They pick a big name for the team Mentor Torin: Toshiyuki Morikawa. The team is gonna get crazy being mentored by none other than Dante...
  • BUGGY IS THE NARRATOR!!!
• Name's the Same: Ramirez, a centuries old warrior with a big beard and ponytail training our heroes.
  • There was previously an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy named Souji... but you know him better as Tendo.
• What Could Have Been: Because of The Smurfette Principle, having the Yellow ranger male have been considered for this series.
  • The head writer Riku Sanjo originally wanted Blue to be a 45-year-old family man. The idea was vetoed, but some elements of it seem to have been used nonetheless, and it was even given a reference in Episode 8 when KyoruyBlue's "old man jokes" cause Yuko to speculate on his age:
    Yuko: He might be a hero, but he's got to be at least 40!
    Nobu: No way Blue is already 40 years old! He's definitely younger than that. ...I think.
• What Measure Is a Non-Badass?: The creator realized that after the majority of the previous series have Yellows who are female. Predicting that the target audience would consider Kyoryu Yellow too feminine regardless of gender, yellow was ultimately excluded from the main team.
