** In general a lot of the story's comic relief was provided by the villains, which is usually more common in ''Power Rangers'' than it is in the original Japanese versions.

* FollowTheLeader: The villains’ first evil act of the series is to blow up a manned space station. In one episode a monster goes around stealing women’s voices prompting the guys to set a trap by dressing in drag. Near the midpoint of the story the rangers get an unpiloted robot that turns into a giant gun, which Carmen steals while pretending to betray the team to trade it for MAYHEM captives. Something about these situations makes one think of [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman jets]].
** In the first episode the soon-to-be rangers are snatched up by their future mentor, who tells them about the imminent arrival of evil aliens on Earth, that they've been chosen to wield superpowers to repel the aliens, and who lets the disbelieving youths go when they don't quite buy it. The youths are then forced to fight the aliens' soldiers and take a chance on their supposed powers when they find themselves outmatched. That sounds more like "Day of the Dumpster" than most Sentai pilots (where they either see evidence of the villains' invasion first, or already belong to the organization), which is really weird considering the original point of this story.
** The story started in [[Series/DenjiSentaiMegaranger 1997]], and has its SixthRanger in a silver suit and a wisecracking creature that bites the monsters to enlarge them.
** The writer had sections of his site devoted to ''Series/KamenRiderBlack'' and its sequel ''Series/KamenRiderBlackRX''. And his villains have an insect-like space fortress.
* MissingEpisode: Abduction of the college president.
