* Why is the SixthRanger called Starninger, not Ougonninger, Koganinger or something else equivalent to the colour gold? Kinji is half-American and his motif is Western-influenced is one thing, but again, the series name is Series/ShurikenSentaiNinninger. And what do Western people call the shuriken in English? Throwing ''star''.

** As to why Shurikenger still had his powers, episode 28 of ''Gokaiger'' specifically showed ''[[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Jetman's]]'' [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Gai Yuki/Black Condor]] transformed while Don was holding the Black Condor Ranger Key. If going by ''Gokaiger's'' theory that dead Sentai heroes can come back, then it's possible for both Shurikengers to still have their powers.

* At first, it seems this series does not take place in the same universe as the movie ''[[Series/NinpuuSentaiHurricanger Hurricaneger: 10 Years After]]'', with the movie introducing a new Shurikenger while episode 43 of ''Ninninger'' featured the original Shurikenger, who died in the original ''Hurricaneger'' (necessitating ''10 Years After'' needing a new Shurikenger). However, knowing from ''Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger'' that dead Sentai heroes can return temporarily as spirits to the land of the living and that [[spoiler:Yoshitaka Igasaki was DeadAllAlong]], it becomes possible that ''Hurricaneger: 10 Years After'' still took place but the original Shurikenger may've been easier to bring to the Ninningers at that moment.

* The Yokai with the ability to go online is Mokumokuren, the hundred-eyed demon, which is strangely appropriate considering rising concerns over online surveillance in RealLife.

* The whole thing with the Ninningers standing on top of their Otominin is basically what mythical ninja would do with ''summoned creatures'' (basically all the time in ''Anime/{{Naruto}}''), which is why they even do it when the Otomonin is clearly a vehicle. Whether it has an actual driver's seat has nothing to do with it.

* Yakumo's tendency to run off into tangents about non-existing drama might seem weird, like when he began to monologue on episode 2 to Kasumi about his differences with Takaharu, or when he felt conflicted about making Kasumi give up her studies on episode 5. It seems rather weird for a character who's supposed to be the realist to just blindly ignore reality. It becomes MUCH clearer, however, if you realize that Yakumo is a drama-sentai character stuck in a comedy-sentai show. He's like [[HikoninSentaiAkibaranger Nobuo]] when it comes sentai character development tropes!

** #28 enforces this further, when Yakumo cheats with his magic and makes everyone infiltrate a kindergarten by turning them all into toys - the others wouldn't be out of place at all, but Yakumo becomes a dragon that looks more like a high-end collectors' item, and winds up being ignored by the kids. And to think these collectors' items often say "Not A Toy" on the box!
