10[[folder:Riki Honoo/Red Turbo]]
11!!Riki Honoo/[[red:Red Turbo]] | [-Actor: Kenta Satou-]
12[[quoteright:242:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/redturbo_8122.jpg]]
13He's the leader of the team, but not exactly the brightest of the bulbs, pulling things off through sheer will. To be fair, [[BookDumb he's just not really good at studying]]. He's a star baseball player.
14
15* BookDumb: Zig-zagged. He's quite smart in battles, but not so much in studying. However, it was implied that before becoming a Turboranger, his grades were actually decent.
16* CoolSword: [=GT=] Sword, his persoal weapon
17** BifurcatedWeapon: [=GT=] Sword + Turbolaser Sword Mode.
18* DualWielding: He ends up dual-wielding his sword due to his 'special weapon'.
19* DoItYourselfThemeTune: His actor sang the theme song. (And later returned to sing the theme to ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger''.)
20* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Pick any of the male villains. Ask who killed them. [[spoiler:It was Riki.]]
21* TheLeader: The one who leads the team, despite having a hyperactive disorder.
22* SignatureMove: "''[=GT=] Crash''"
23[[/folder]]
24[[folder:Daichi Yamagata/Black Turbo]]
25!!Daichi Yamagata/Black Turbo | [-Actor: Fumiaki Ganaha-]
26[[quoteright:241:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blackturbo_6033.jpg]]
27Second-in-command, and in contrast with Riki, he is actually pretty smart. Leads the team just in case Riki is absent. Other than being a smart boy, he is also a member of the track team, sometimes called 'Running Brain'.
28
29* {{Determinator}}: He was very adamant on protecting his vehicle, to complete the Turbo Rugger.
30* GeniusBruiser: Uses lots of heavy weaponry, ends up liking a sport like sumo, ''still'' one of the smartest of the class.
31%%* TheSmartGuy
32* WhatTheHellHero: Is mostly the one to deliver it when someone does something completely improper. And when he does, he's screaming like hell.
33* WouldHitAGirl: Ended up being the one to kill Jarmin.
34[[/folder]]
35[[folder:Youhei Hama/Blue Turbo]]
36!!Youhei Hama/[[blue:Blue Turbo]] | [-Actor: Keiya Asakura-]
37[[quoteright:241:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blueturbo_5744.jpg]]
38A senior of the swimming club, giving him good relations with children. His good looks also [[ChickMagnet attracts girls]], though this is offset that he is probably the second in terms of getting on the teacher's nerves.
39
40* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Subverted. Youhei himself is a nice guy when it comes to girls, but everyone knows he's the second biggest 'troublemaker' in the eyes of the teachers. [[ChickMagnet He still magnetizes girls regardless]].
41%%* BifurcatedWeapon: J-Gun + Turbolaser Gun Mode = [[MoreDakka J Machine Gun]].
42* TheBigGuy: You will have to be keen to see this quality on him. Maybe that giant-swing on a MonsterOfTheWeek is the most shining example of it?
43* BookDumb: According to WordOfGod, he's ''even worse'' than Riki.
44* TheChewToy: Other than getting on the teacher's nerves, Youhei just had the misfortune of getting the most DistressedDude moments, or that one when he lost all the girls attracted to him because his face got switched with a DirtyCoward nerd.
45%%* ChickMagnet
46%%* FriendToAllChildren
47* {{Kiai}}: More prone to yell "CHESTO!".
48* LikesOlderWomen: When he was a kid, he had a crush on his ''teacher''.

52[[quoteright:242:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yellowturbo_4698.jpg]]

54

56%%* ButtMonkey

60[[/folder]]
61[[folder:Haruna Morikawa/Pink Turbo]]
62!!Haruna Morikawa/[[pink:Pink Turbo]] | [-Actress: Noriko Kinohara-]
63[[quoteright:240:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pinkturbo_5467.jpg]]
64She's pretty much the class' 'Miss Perfect', which includes being the StudentCouncilPresident and the smartest girl in the class. She's excellent in acting, but [[TheHeart has a kind heart and is the first one to realize how much it hurts to fight her classmates all the time.]]
65
66%%* AllLovingHero
67* FakeDefector: Her most well-known feat is this.
68* FriendToAllLivingThings: Nice with animals, as shown in the dog episode.
69* TheHeart: The most compassionate of the team, which plays heavily in the latter episodes.
70* NiceJobBreakingItHeroine: [[spoiler:When she learns about an artifact that might be able to stop her friends (the Turborangers and Nagare Boma) from fighting each other, she desperately sought it and forcefully used it... only for it to turn out that it seals both sides' powers and brings Neo-Lagorn back to Earth. She is really sorry about this.]]
71%%* OneOfTheBoys
72* StudentCouncilPresident: The girl with the best grades in their school, which earns her that position.
73%%* TheSmurfettePrinciple
74%%* StudentCouncilPresident
75* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Tomboy to Seelon's Girly Girl.
76* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: She really doesn't like frogs.
77[[/folder]]
78!Allies
79[[folder:Seelon]]
80!!Seelon | [-Actress: Mayumi Oomura-]
81* BewareTheNiceOnes: Once operated the Turbobuilder's cannons while the Turborangers were busy.
82* LastOfHisKind: She is the last surviving fairy, since most of her kind are dead.
83%%* OurFairiesAreDifferent
84* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Girly Girl to Haruna's Tomboy.
85[[/folder]]
86[[folder:Dr. Dazai]]
87!!Dr. Dazai | [-Actor: Fujita Okamoto-]
88* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Has a crush on Miss Yamaguchi.
89* GadgeteerGenius: He developed the team mecha and their arsenal.
90%%* TheMentor
91[[/folder]]
92[[folder:Miss Yamaguchi]]
93!!Miss Yamaguchi | [-Actress: Kyouko Takami-]
94* CoolTeacher: Becomes more of this as the show goes on, and she also becomes a SecretKeeper when she boards the Turbobuilder in the finale.
95* SternTeacher: Riki, Youhei, and Shunsuke are frequent targets of her admonishment.
96[[/folder]]
97[[folder:Lakiya]]
98!!Lakiya | [-Voice Actor: Creator/BanjoGinga-]
99* PhysicalGod
100* {{Stellification}}: Becomes a constellation at the end of episode 3.
101[[/folder]]
102!Hundred Boma Tribes
103[[folder:In General]]
104* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Subverted. It's heavily implied that the Boma's antagonism is born both out of resentment towards humanity for sealing them away and Lagorn's employment of various Boma to advance his goals. We meet several good-hearted Boma through the series as proof of it.
105[[/folder]]
106[[folder:Great Boma Emperor Lagorn/Neo Lagorn]]
107!!Great Boma Emperor Lagorn/Neo Lagorn | [-Voice Actor: Creator/TakeshiWatabe-]
108[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turborangerlagorn.jpg]]
109
110* BadBoss: Shows no gratitude to his underlings, despite the fact that they're the ones who unsealed him.
111* BigBad: The supreme ruler of the Boma Tribe, and the major antagonist of the series.
112* CameBackStrong: After his initial defeat, he fed off the energy of the Turboranger and Wandering Boma to revive himself, stronger than ever.
113** ClippedWingAngel: That being said, oddly he's destroyed by an attack that his normal form no-sold.
114* DidntThinkThisThrough: He realizes too late that forcing ''all'' of his generals to perform do-or-die tactics severely diminishes his forces.
115* GenericDoomsdayVillain: Has ''zero'' characterization beyond being an EvilOverlord.
116* ItsAllAboutMe: The Boma might have a species-wide grudge against mankind for understandable reasons, but Lagorn doesn't care about any of that. All he's concerned with is getting his way at the expense of everyone else's lives.
117* OrcusOnHisThrone: Justified as he's immobile for most of the series. Once he gains the ability to move around, he immediately gets off his throne and goes after the Turborangers himself. He gets destroyed by the Super Turbobuilder, but then comes back, at first behind the scenes, then openly.
118* OneWingedAngel: Neo-Lagorn. He's gold-skinned and can actually move around now. Still ugly as hell, though.
119* UngratefulBastard: As mentioned before, he treats his underlings very poorly, even though they were the ones who freed him.
120* VileVillainSaccharineShow: Despite it's lighthearted tone of the show, Lagorn's level of ruthlessness towards his subordinates makes him no different from the previous installments' {{Big Bad}}s.
121
122[[/folder]]
123[[folder:Boma Doctor Layda]]
124!!Boma Doctor Layda | [-Actor: Masami Ishibashi-]
125[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turborangerlehda.jpg]]
126* ClimaxBoss: [[spoiler:His final battle marks the end of the Boma hierarchy present since the first episodes and a turning point where the Wandering Boma eclipse the full blooded Boma as the main focus.]]
127* EvilOldFolks: An old man in a silly ammonite suit who can still go toe to toe with a Red Ranger.
128* EvilGenius: The Resident Boma Evil Genius.
129* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Riki skewers him badly during their showdown, though being Super Sentai it still takes a FinishingMove to kill him.
130* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Was killed by Red Turbo during their showdown.]]
131* TheDragon: He is Lagorn's top enforcer[[spoiler:. After his death the position goes to Yamimaru]].
132* TechnicolorDeath: No simply fall-over-and-explode for him; he float up in the air bleeding sparks and lightning, erupts with huge squibs, explodes so fiercely everything around him explodes as well, and his spirit is seen cursing in the flames before dissolving.
133[[/folder]]
134[[folder:Dark Boma Zimba]]
135!!Dark Boma Zimba | [-Actor: Seiichi Hirai -]
136[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turborangerzimba.jpg]]
137* TheBrute: The general who does most of the fighting during the first half of ''Turboranger''.
138* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: In the past, he did experience love to a princess. Which didn't go well. Even in the present day, despite hating love in general, he couldn't help but form a rapport with the equally evil Jarmin, enough that he offered himself to go for TheLastDance first before her.
139* {{Samurai}}: A dark version of the trope, full on with Yoroi armor.
140* TragicMonster: He's no doubt a bonafide evil warrior, but his origin is one big tragedy: He dedicated his life for a princess that eventually just dumped him in his dying moments. Naturally, [[LoveMakesYouEvil he took it well.]]
141[[/folder]]
142[[folder:Boma Princess Jarmin]]
143!!Boma Princess Jarmin | [-Actress: Kanako Kishi-]
144[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turborangerjarmin.jpg]]
145* AnimalMotifs: Snakes. Her method of enlarging a monster is via a snake beam she can breathe out of her mouth, her true form is a snake monster, and her weapon is that of a whip... which is pretty long like a snake. [[SnakesAreEvil Evil like a snake too.]]
146%%* DarkActionGirl
147* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Jarmin is a bonafide bitch, but when she was first in queue to be sent for a final battle by Ragorn [[YouHaveFailedMe for failing too much]], Zimba stepped up and took her place and for a moment, she was genuinely stunned at his sacrifice.
148%%* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk
149* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Was slain in her final bout against Black Turbo.]]
150* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only female member of the Boma Tribe's original roster.
151* WeaponSpecialization: She's rarely seen without her whip whenever she appears. She can also empower it with her magic.
152[[/folder]]
153[[folder:Rage Flying Boma Zulten]]
154!!Rage Flying Boma Zulten | [-Voice Actor: Creator/HideyukiUmezu-]
155[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/turborangerzulten.jpg]]
156* DirtyCoward: He is prone to use underhanded tactics in order to get the upper hand. Not to mentioned that he`s sucking up to his superiors due to his weak-willed mentality.
157* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Abruptly killed in a jet crash]] at the start of the final episode.
158%%* MakeMyMonsterGrow
159* TeamPet: Can literally be used as an ATV by the other Boma. Even Riki drove him once!
160[[/folder]]
161!Wandering Boma
162[[folder:Hikaru Nagareboshi/Yamimaru]]
163!!Hikaru Nagareboshi/Yamimaru | [-Actor: Yoshinori Tanaka-]
164[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yamimaru.png]]
165* AntiVillain
166* TheDragon: [[spoiler:The right hand man of Lagorn after the death of the TerribleTrio]].
167** DragonWithAnAgenda: [[spoiler:He plans to overthrow Lagorn and ends up making an EnemyMine with the heroes to kill him for good]].
168* [[spoiler:EleventhHourRanger: Sides with Kirika and the heroes during the finale]].
169* {{Expy}}: Like [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Char]], he's a masked man with an agenda who has a fierce rivalry with TheHero and he has the ability to change into his human guise in order to blend with the society. He also gains a red-colored battle form once he's united with the awakened Kirika.
170* HalfBreedDiscrimination: Spent his life being rejected by both humans and Bouma.
171* HalfHumanHybrid
172* [[spoiler: HeelFaceTurn]]
173* TheStarscream
174* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds - For spending years being treated badly by both humans and Boma.
175[[/folder]]
176[[folder:Sayoko Tsukikage/Kirika]]
177!!Sayoko Tsukikage/Kirika | [-Actress: Masako Morishita-]
178[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/20220113_232158_8.jpg]]
179* AntiVillain
180* DarkActionGirl: For the most part.
181* [[spoiler:EleventhHourRanger: Post HeelFaceTurn, she helps the Turborangers during the last episodes. Yamimaru tags along during the last episode too.]]
182* TheGlassesGottaGo: Because apparently this show was before the {{Meganekko}} craze.
183* HalfHumanHybrid
184* [[spoiler: HeelFaceTurn]]
185* KnightOfCerebus: Her introduction, combined with [[spoiler:the deaths of most of the Boma generals]] prior, changes the paradigm of the fight with the Boma for the darker.
186* OneDropRule: As soon as she finds out she has Bouma blood, she completely abandons her human side.
187* TheSmurfettePrinciple: [[spoiler: Following Jarmin's death, she's the sole female villain.]]
188* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds - Since a child, she's constantly been bullied by her fellow humans, while her fellow Boma reject her completely.
189[[/folder]]
