** Unless their numbers are being multiplied by special effects, you only seem to see a maximum of three Jaryuu on the screen at once, much like ''Series/LandOfTheLost,'' where you only saw three Sleestacks on camera at once because that's how many costumes they could afford.

Added DiffLines:

** The first episode establishes a rivalry between Satoru and Masumi. This all but disappears by the next episode and for the rest of the series, they get along perfectly fine, until the endgame arc where Masumi reads his diary and starts being a jerk towards Satoru for no reason.

* {{Narm}}: The way Gajah talks, from his intonations to his facial expressions, makes it damn near impossible to take him seriously.

* DesignatedHero: Satoru earns this title in Task 11. He lied and alienated his teammates, betrayed Souta's trust, hurt Natsuki's feelings, overall kept everyone in the dark, jeopardized the mission and purposefully got their mecha captured, thus potentially risking the lives of millions of innocents (he didn't, but it was out of pure luck), all of that just to satisfy his adventure boner.

*CompleteMonster:
** [[EmperorScientist Creator King Ryuuwon]] is the ruler of the [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Jaryuu Clan]] and a former human alchemist who desires to supplant humankind with his own genetically-engineered MasterRace. Believing [[TheSocialDarwinist strength is everything]], Ryuuwon frequently sacrifices his men in ritualistic duels to the death to create Wicked Dragons, once even making 3000 of them kill each other for a ritual, and also blows several of them up in an attempt to kill the Boukengers. For one scheme, Ryuuwon partnered with the Questers to brainwash Natsuki Mamiya into using the Sun of Lemuria to wipe out humankind. When his mutation wears off and Satoru offers him a chance at redemption, Ryuuwon [[RedemptionRejection rejects it]], not content to live if he can't be superior to others.
** [[EnigmaticMinion Yaiba of Darkness]] is the deputy leader and [[DragonInChief most dangerous member]] of Dark Shadow. Having slaughtered Masumi Inou's adventure party in the past, Yaiba only spared Masumi in the hopes of corrupting him. Championing [[TheDarkSide the power of darkness]] above all else, Yaiba eventually [[TheStarscream betrays]] Gekkou of Illusions and unseals the Demon Bird from within him to kill the Boukengers, delighting at getting to witness its world-destroying power. He later coerces Masumi into helping him [[ColonyDrop summon a meteor to crash into Earth]] and plunge the planet into darkness, creating an environment where only darkness beings like himself can thrive.

%%* * TearJerker: Episode 25.25 sees Eiji befriend Akutagami, an ineffectual [[MonsterOfTheWeek Tsukumogami]] who becomes intelligent through eating the episode's {{Macguffin}}.

Eiji is happy to seem him alive, only to find that the Macguffin's effects wore off and Akutagami doesn't recognize him. The episode ends with Eiji telling Akutagami to hide in a forest and live freely away from Dark Shadow.

to:

%%* * BadassDecay: Eiji.Eiji starts off the series a no-nonsense hunter able to fight Ashu even without being a Boukenger, but after he joins the team he becomes a less serious and much more comedic.



* EvilIsCool: ''Boukengers'' definitely has some of the coolest villains in the franchise.
** Yaiba of Darkness, a badass shadow-themed ninja who's a competent and formidable threat to the Boukengers whenever he appears.
** Creator King Ryuuwon is a bloodthirsty dragon man who [[FrontlineGeneral frequently battles the Boukengers himself]] and comes off as tough and dangerous each time.

** In #23, Gai reads Souta's mind to get information on a {{Macguffin}} and Souta trolls him by thinking of cute girls he's met instead. When Gai threatens him, Souta imagines ''Satoru and Masumi shirtless'' instead and asks him if he's happy.



* LoveToHate: The Questers and Gai in particular, whose hamminess and {{troll}}ish charm make him a very fun villain to hate on.

That annoying kid from Task 5.5, who fails to recognize that Sakura is [=BoukenPink=] despite all the obvious clues.
** The adventurer from Task 29, who spends most of the episode being whiny and irritating and berating Satoru and the other SGS members.



* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: A couple episodes imply that the SGS doesn't fully trust the Boukengers and may be hiding things from them. This leads to... absolutely nothing.

to:

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Ouga, an Ashu King who leads a separate tribe from Gai's and is implied to be ''more'' dangerous than him, who also shares history with Eiji's mother. Despite this, he only serves as the MonsterOfTheWeek for a single episode and gets no further development.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
**
A couple episodes imply that the SGS doesn't fully trust the Boukengers and may be hiding things from them. This leads to... absolutely nothing.
** TheMovie for the series begins with all four Negative Syndicates gunning for an extremely powerful Precious. The Negative Syndicates battling each other and the Boukengers having to elude them while working to obtain a Precious could have easily sustained the plot of an entire film, but instead they mostly serve as {{Starter Villain}}s and an unrelated villain serves as the BigBad.

** Episode 35 gives us a version of Momotarou. The ''Franchise/KamenRider'' [[Series/KamenRiderDenO season]] that would air after ''Boukenger'' gave us a new twist on the concept.
