One of the weirdest Super Sentai parodies I remember was the Force Fighters V from League of Super Evil. They had different colored suits, each piloted a different vehicle that combined into a bigger mech, and even did the weird wacky poses. The funniest part is they owned a restaurant as a cover-up.
Managed? You act like JDF had been a big-name actor who would have been normally far too busy to appear in a show like We Bare Bears. Man's career was literally just Power Rangers, minor appearances in a handful of episodes of various shows, and direct to DVD movies.
Regular show had somewhat of a power rangers reference, there’s a group of returning characters that are basically baby ducks that can transform into a megazord like giant
I’m pretty sure those were like Ultraman mixed with Transformers Parody. Heck the 2nd time the Baby Ducks appeared, had a remix of Stan Bush’s The Touch.
@@jmredguppy2799there was a bit of a PR reference. As they were getting in the robot or suiting up they had a quick call out sequence in the style of Mighty Morphin. Think on "Let's cook this goose" and you might remember it being when they show up in the fanny pack in place of the Buckler
Back when I first watched Akibarangers, I had no idea Maaya Uchida who played Hiroya Hakase was a voice actor (seiyuu) since I was really into Tokusatsu at the time and was getting back into anime. Had only watch English Dub anime but got into English Subs due to watching Tokusatsu.
I think the pig character in Animaniacs was meant to parody the Mordant character from the MMPR movie rather than Goldar. Otherwise, I loved it. (And I am also a huge fan of Akibarangers!) EDIT: I checked airdates and the episode in question did air only a few months after the movie, so that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Voltron and The Mystic knights were clever shows in their own rights. Flower Rangers were the only parody I remember as a kid. Akibaranger not until way later in life.
What I remember vividly is the Power Rangers parody of the old cartoon "Walter Melone". For context: The premise of Walter Melone was that he'd take over for a certain hero if they are either unavailable, call in sick, are in the hospital, etc. . Him and his partner in one episode have to take over for 2 Rangers from the "Mighty Hippy Power Rose-Rangers", specifically they have to step in for their versions of Jason and Billy. Yes, all the rangers of that team are plant based, and they are very, very caricature-rised members of a hippy commune. also, Their plant zords combined into a gigantic lawn mower.
My favourite parody was from an Australian show called "the ferals" it was a puppet show similar to Muppets and sesemi Street, but the characters lived in dirty places like sewers, junk yards and abandoned buildings. There was an episode where all the main characters became power rangers. If I remember correctly, they even said "woah! we've transformed into power rangers!" I only ever saw that episode once when I was around 7 years old, but i still remember it 18 years later. I need to try track it down
Does anyone remember the episode of "Arthur" where there was an episode about dental hygiene and the characters watched a TV show and it was a power rangers parody
This is more for the older fans but Key and Peele did a skit called the Power Falcons that parodied PR and it was pretty funny. It even had Brenda Song who people might remember was in that movie Wendy Wu Homecoming Warrior, a movie with action scenes directed by Koichi Sakamoto of PR fame at the time, though now he's more known for his Rider and Sentai stuff.
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go was introduced to me by my cousins along with Power Rangers. I always saw them as two different shows with the former having a huge amount a lore.
A pretty new senti reference I've seen is the Niji Six from Captain LazerHawk, their leader Red is one of the funniest evil characters I've seen awhile
Viewtiful Joe was mostly inspired in Kaiketsu Zubat. Besides Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, etc. Zubat also inspired some features in Liveman, Winspector and other stuff.
So many things I wish I could say. Onoranger comes from Ono, a type of axe like Geiz’s weapon. Viewtiful Joe is Rider inspired, it’s spiritual successor Wonderful 101 is more Sentai inspired.
Love After World Domination is an anime that is a full-on Sentai/PR parody. It's a romcom about a Red Ranger dating one of the villains. Based on the likes of Zhane & Astronema, Lucas & Nadira, and, most of all, Red Racer & Zonnette of Carranger.
Dexters Lab had an episode called Last But Not Beast where Dexter tells his family that he has a lab in order to save the city from a giant monster and they become Power Rangers in giant vehicles that become a Megazord. They have a theme song called "Go Dexter Family Go"... Which was super catchy!
in jorel's brother, a latino-american cartoon, there is a parody of basically everything tokusatsu in one while also being a parody of an anime called saint Seiya, where the characters are a group of super heroes who have a giant robot, while also having a microwave for a torso
Hey Este. For the last time i heard at (14:01) can you do a video about Disney's treatment of Power Rangers because they lack any connections since MMPR started & lacked any crossovers, & please i'm begging you Este can you do a video about it.
I just thought of a Canadian satire version. There was a cartoon show called "League of Super Evil" in the 2010s and the titular League had to deal with a bunch of superheroes, including their hilarious take on the Power Rangers called the "Force Fighters V"
the video game Godhand has a boss that parodies PR, they are called the Mad Midget 5, actually a pretty funny but also hard boss since you have to fight all 5 at once
I came up with a new idea for a anime style tokusatsu series, it’ll be a power rangers parody that’s a loving tribute to all things power rangers, 80s pop culture, 90s Nickelodeon shows and Japanese pop culture. It’s called Dream Rangers. It’s a sci-fi, action, comedy series, it’s kinda like Dave the barbarian, power rangers, tokusatsu shows, saved by the bell, teenage mutant ninja turtles, anime, and video games mixed in a blender with 4th wall breaking, tokusatsu action, references to pop culture, musical number parodies, and comedy like the 90s Nickelodeon shows.
Oh god I need to watch Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce GO! Also, The Sesame Street "Mega Monsters" song reminds me of Mega Man X1's title screen. Plus the Hello Kittty Sentai Easter Egg is adorable
It is crime that ReBoot's starting the domino effect episode *Nullzilla* isn't mentioned in this. The whole premise of the episode is literally a parody to the Power Rangers and it's origin (Godzilla).
My favourite power rangers parody is from Disgaea, as you the main character is becoming the overlord in the game, there is a chapter where a group of heroes call the Prism Ranger come and they challenge Laharl for the title of Overlord in the hopes of gaining friends. Since then they appear on other Disgaea series.
If you know about the Yugioh Trading card game there Is 3 archetypes based on tokusatsu the inzektor and Masked HERO archetypes are based on Kamen Rider and the Super Quant Archetype are based on Super dental and Power rangers
The first parody of Power Rangers I've seen despite not knowing at the time, was in the Arthur animated series episode Arthur's Tooth, where it showed an educational video about a monster drilling into a tooth until the "Flighty Fluoride Scour Rangers" stops it and throws it down the throat.
There was an issue of the MLP g4 comics where Discord had the CMC become the Power Rangers which I loved to death. Seriously, my Ponysona's dad giving Scoots a chance to become a Ranger herself was awesome to see
so fun fact about the final fantasy ranger suits the helmet has a X in it, the chest is a hidden I down the middle, and silver V below the chest plate spelling out the XIV (14) for ffxiv. also if you ever add more games nexomon extension parody's them with the nexolords.
In the yugioh TCG, there are 2 archetyoed based on the power rangers. Super quant- based in the power rangers A-Z machines- based on the zords & megazords
There is a power rangers parody game that was on the Wii U and I think it's on switch too but the game is called The Wonderful 101 a game where 101 heroes fight to save a futuristic Earth from Aliens who after the popular Power Rangers color scheme like Red, Blue, Black, Pink, Yellow, Green etc. They also have a giant robot they used in the final mission of the game.
If memory serves I believe Super Mario RPG actually had two references to Power Ranger. The Turtle Bros very much made me think Power Rangers although I can see that also being TMNT
Akiba ranger is the unofficial official entry since they where made by the same studio would be suprice if they become just official like Go Ranger and JAKQ.
One i miss is the reference in the last Pokemon season (Aim to be a Pokemon master). In the 5th episode (The Squirtle Squad Episode) the Squirtle's wear Power Ranger suits
I think you should put Tom and Jerry Tales episode 'More Powers To You 'in that there's a team who look very sad to Power Rangers because they power obtained by a Ring each have different colours and Powers.
There is one such reference you forgot to mention (primarily due to the dub calling the pose a "dab" despite it not being as such). It happened in an episode of Yugioh VRains.
There are 23yugioh archetypes based on the power rangers & kamen rider series Super quant: based on the rangers/super sentai series A-Z machine deck: based on the zords & megazords masked hero: based on kamen rider
Persona 4 Golden on PSP & PS4 had a set of Ranger costumes you could put on your team. Each of the main characters were a different color and it changed their victory exclamations & poses. I believe the Persona series as a whole has a recurring parody series called Phoenix Rangers
That show was my fav saturday cartoon but sadly the show end on a cliffhanger... most show end with we meet everybody that we meet in the whole show at a party or a flash foward montage, this show cliffhanger wtih everybody prepare for a "Star Wars" level war...
Happy Halloween 🎃 esquad

Getting major Jungle Fury flashbacks
One of the zords was just a hand or foot I dont remember, I remember watching LOSE but couldnt remember the name, thanks!
They really nailed the exaggerated poses with those guys, also they had the closest thing we'll see of Bulk as a ranger
@@JAY-1-2-3-4 it was a hand lol
Okay but the fact that fucking We Bare Bears managed to Jason David Frank himself?
Legendary

And now he's dead. RIP

I’m still waiting for Phineas and Ferb to make a Power Rangers reference/crossover with them. Maybe that’s coming in the fifth season, I don’t know.
Does anyone remember the episode of "Arthur" where there was an episode about dental hygiene and the characters watched a TV show and it was a power rangers parody
Yes. And Arthur's friends were teasing him because Arthur still had his baby tooth.
Chroma squad definitely deserved at least an honorable mention it was a game made by fans for fans
This is exactly what i needed during my covid sickness. Thanks este, thank you fellow ranger fans
hope u get better soon :)
get better i loved the video to

We Bare Bears' Silver Bear, number one. "Ultra Meteorite Fighters, Forever..." Rest in Power, Jason David Frank.🐲😞✊🏻
So excited power rangers cosmic fury
Ones that need to be mentioned:
Super Freakin' Parody Rangers (Flash animation on Newgrounds)
Dexter's Laboratory (🎶Go, Dexter Family, Go🎶)
The Animaniacs episode is extra funny because it was the first episode of the Kids WB era of the series after airing on Fox Kids since the beginning.
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go was introduced to me by my cousins along with Power Rangers. I always saw them as two different shows with the former having a huge amount a lore.
HAPPY ESQUADWEEN!!!!!!

6:21 I'm sorry its not Onore, but it's Ono in Onoranger that means Axe, basically their name is Axe rangers 😅
Can wait for power rangers reboot and cartoon 2025
My favorite parody was from Arthur. Go go Scour Rangers

Morphinominal, Este! Happy Halloween!
Happy holidays!
The FFXIV reference is amazing and the outfit is killer. Since i grew up with PR Samurai, I use the Glamour on my SAM.
Best power rangers pairody
Dexters Lab had an episode called Last But Not Beast where Dexter tells his family that he has a lab in order to save the city from a giant monster and they become Power Rangers in giant vehicles that become a Megazord. They have a theme song called "Go Dexter Family Go"... Which was super catchy!
Will be obtaining 'Avengers - Tech-On #4' and seeing if I can get the 1st page blown up and posterized. Thanks!
in jorel's brother, a latino-american cartoon, there is a parody of basically everything tokusatsu in one while also being a parody of an anime called saint Seiya, where the characters are a group of super heroes who have a giant robot, while also having a microwave for a torso

Somehow Akibaranger became became official, they even appear in Super Hero Senki movie
I thought Viewtiful Joe was more of a Kamen Rider tribute and Wonderful 101 was Super Sentai/Power Rangers
What about Paw Patrol? Does that in some way count as a power ranger parody ?
If not Mighty Pups?
I just thought of a Canadian satire version. There was a cartoon show called "League of Super Evil" in the 2010s and the titular League had to deal with a bunch of superheroes, including their hilarious take on the Power Rangers called the "Force Fighters V"
Check out the anime Love After World Domination it’s a fun watch and a good parody of Super Sentai
Happy 30th Anniversary Power Rangers
1993-2023
the video game Godhand has a boss that parodies PR, they are called the Mad Midget 5, actually a pretty funny but also hard boss since you have to fight all 5 at once
I guess it just started as a parody and eventually grew to something more of its own, but Combo Rangers was amazing.
am I the only one who thought miniforce was a spin off of power rangers. I feel stupid knowing its a parody.
There is a Japanese Adult Video company who makes AV parodies of Super Sentai. The name of the company is Giga.
That's extremely funny, I am amused, scared and curious all at once
This is the best way to celebrate Halloween
i love the Bleach parody with the Karakura Rizers
Thanks for the video ❤
Chroma Squad game is a love letter to how the shows were made.
Colecting cardboard, duct tape, etc to upgrade suits & mecha.
Congrats on 100k subs i have been waiting for the day
Thank you so much 😀

Anyone Seen The anime Love after World Domination?
I love it, Happy Halloween
"onore" doesnt mean honour btw, it's one of the many ways of saying "you" in Japanese. It's in a disrespectful manner though similar to "kisama".
thank u for correcting me 🔥
Shout out to Chroma Squad for being an entire strategy RPG based on the Power Rangers formula. Baller.
8:18 There was in 2016 but it was more parodical than anything. I can show you what they looked like if you want.
Happy Halloween, Este!
cool esqaud
Oh god I need to watch Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce GO! Also, The Sesame Street "Mega Monsters" song reminds me of Mega Man X1's title screen.

Did the Animaniacs parody inspire Mordant from the 1995 movie? 😮 It’s basically the same character design…
Where's Giga TOkusatsu's various parodies of Sentai like Gokaiger and Hurricaneger etc
Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills was Power Rangers like
The first parody of Power Rangers I've seen despite not knowing at the time, was in the Arthur animated series episode Arthur's Tooth, where it showed an educational video about a monster drilling into a tooth until the "Flighty Fluoride Scour Rangers" stops it and throws it down the throat.

Honestly I loved the annoying orange parody, sour rangers, probably some of my favourite annoying orange episodes
I parody the power rangers with cats ranger of 5 cats name josh (red) Andrew (blue) Kate (pink) Michael (black) and Lizzie (green)
In the yugioh TCG, there are 2 archetyoed based on the power rangers.

The ginyu force form Dragon Ball are probably exactly . but i think they count
Hold on. This misses out a pretty big Power Rangers/Super Sentai parody, the Ginyu Force from Dragon Ball Z.

Power rangers xxx is something different you should talk about

The Wings of Justice always take flight

Happy belated Halloween my favorite is the one from regular show the baby ducks
Persona 4 Golden on PSP & PS4 had a set of Ranger costumes you could put on your team. Each of the main characters were a different color and it changed their victory exclamations & poses.
I believe the Persona series as a whole has a recurring parody series called Phoenix Rangers
Featherman, yep. And in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, Yukari from Persona 3 has her main outfit as Featherman, because she actually acts in the series.
3:34 Now that is true dedication of the marvel team.
Possibly my favorite power rangers reference of all time was Earth Force enforcement Force from the Netflix series kid cosmic
wait what the fuck, how do u get the FF14 suits? i have never seen them b4 and i want them, that's my pick for my favourite XD.
My favorite power rangers parody is probably either the new squirtle squad episode from pokemon or the hexagon brothers also from pokemon
FFXIV has a megazord in Alexander brute justice
Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go huh? Never heard of it prior but very interesting.
That show was my fav saturday cartoon but sadly the show end on a cliffhanger... most show end with we meet everybody that we meet in the whole show at a party or a flash foward montage, this show cliffhanger wtih everybody prepare for a "Star Wars" level war...
@@syabilaazri7834 I'm going to have to try to track it down.
I kinda really wish Disney still owned Power Rangers. The most recent season was.. decent but could have been way better.
i remember watching we bear bear and i heard jdf voice i was like WHAHAHAHAHAHT
The direct translation of otaku could be "obsessive fan" just that. It just so happen that most "otaku" are anime and manga and VG fans
Feral TV had an episode where they parodied MMPR and called the show Mighty Dorkey Power whingers.
My favorite parody is, "Is Morphin Time" by Brandon Rogers.
Sentai is slowly turning into Kamen rider. But with more members.
