Tokunation Sentai Modranger is a fanfic created by KamenRiderOOO and Kiryu of Tokunation. It tracks the exploits of the Modrangers, a group of otakus who are roped into becoming Super Sentai by Tony Bacala, boss of Tokunation, to defend the Earth from the AnonArmy.
It can be read here.
Cancelled in June 2014, due to the writers losing the notes after a long hiatus and struggling to write for such a large cast.
It has been replaced with a reboot, Tokunation Sentai Modranger R, which can be read here. This follows the adventures of a futuristic police (ala Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger to thwart ABEND.
The original Mod Ranger story provides examples of:
- A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The AnonArmy appears to be this
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Usually happens in Access Extras, mostly comedic stories that are canon and in between the main Accesses.
- By the Power of Grayskull!: Mod Access, Log In!
- Calling Your Attacks: As per Super Sentai tradition.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: As expected from a Super Sentai homage.
- Deadly Training Area: The Modrangers have access to one, it's even directly compared to the X-Men danger room. After the original base is destroyed, they have a normal training room, where they spar with each other andTony to train.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Proto Silver and Proto Gold
- Elaborate Underground Base: The Modrangers access it, from an internet cafe. After it is destroyed in 8, Tony reveals another one was directly under Jordan's store.
- Eye Catch: One is mentioned but not described
- Finishing Move: Lots-at least one for each ranger.
- Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: All episodes begin with Access.
- In the Name of the Moon
- Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe: The city the Modrangers live in and have the CPU base in is Long Beach, CA (where Reggie and the person he is based off of, actually lives.)
- Mood Whiplash:
- Access 15: The guys celebrate a victory, with Ai and Reggie getting closer... Only to leave the restaurant they were at to find Kyle being strangled by Onore Black...
- Access 20: Reggie and Ai are now a couple! But then Reggie goes berserk when he decides to use his USB...
- Real-Person Fic: All the characters are based on actual users of the Tokunation forum.
- Shout-Out: The suits of the team all take elements from different things they like.
- Red: His suit is a mix of Momotaros and Kamen Rider Den-O, while his visor is based on Gokai Red's.
- Blue: His suit is a mix of Kyoryu Blue's and Kamen Rider Decade's, with one of his weapons resembling the Landick Claw.
- Violet: His suit is a mix of TaJaDor and Kamen Rider Wizard, with his visor based on Gokai Pink's, along with his weapon resembling a combination of the Gokai Sabre and the Tajya Spinner.
- Green borrows elements of Gurren Lagann and Oh Red with Gokai Green's Visor.
- Black is a mix of Akiba Red and Go Red, with his visor based on Gokai Blue's and his extra armor being based on the Vocaloid Megurine Luka.
- Gold takes a lot of his design cues from King Ranger
- Cyan is a unique case, in which none of the parts of his/her costume is based on Tokusatsu items. Rather, he/she has a school uniform that resemble those in K-On!.
- Yellow looks like Battle Japan's Korean cousin.
- White is another unique case, but looks like a knight from World of Warcraft.
- Hunter takes his design cues from Ultraman, Baltan and Gigan.
- Navy looks like Accel traded in his leather jacket for a police suit.
- Bronze combines his armor design with Kamen Rider Knight and Dragon Ranger.
- Master is noted to look like another "Master" from a Sentai team.
- Synapse Warrior has small parts of it designed after the Titanium Ranger and Den-O Wing Form.
- Sixth Ranger: Newsie Knight and Photo Bomber fit this theme. Mod Gold and Mod Silver are the official ones though.
- Wham Episode:
- Access 9: Reggie's nightmare is proven real as Jordan takes the hit from Ono Red for him, and appears to be fatally injured.
- Access 15: The Mod Belts are destroyed, Jordan and Matt are injured, Reggie's arm and Nathan's leg are broken, and Kyle can't move at all...
Modranger R includes examples of:
- Shout-Out: The suits of the team, ironically, take cues from the original Mod Ranger suits, with Red now taking on Violet's bird theme and Blue retaining Blue's Stegosaurus theme, while taking on design cues from his evil counterpart as well. Other than that, their suits are a mix of GoGo Sentai Boukenger and Iron Man
