History MythologyGag / ZyudenSentaiKyoryuger

* In #41, Daigo twirls his Gaburivolver with both hands, in a manner you may not be familiar with - if you didn't follow ''Series/Power Rangers Samurai''.

* Episode 22 features the awakening of the BigBad in an "Incomplete Form", [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga sound familiar]]?
** This one sounds more like a ShoutOut than a MythologyGag.

* Amy is ''forced'' to stick with the traditional formal speak, which [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Ahim]] was known for all season.[[note]]To illustrate, Gentle calls her out for using the decidedly informal ''[[JapanesePronouns atashi]]'' instead of the much more formal ''[[JapanesePronouns watakushi]]'', which one FanSub [[{{Woolseyism}} equates to the use of contractions in English]].[[/note]]

* Torin's human disguise in #43 is basically Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa cosplaying as [[JAKQDengekitai Big One]].

Mostly to ''Series/BattleFeverJ'', ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger'', and ''Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger'':

*** A Pteranodon mech emerges from a volcano?
*** The restaurant where Amy works is called "Tiger Boy" and has a yellow sign; a reference to the Yellow Tiger Ranger named Boi.
*** [[Series/JukenSentaiGekiranger Jan]] also called himself a tiger boy (tora no ko, literally "tiger's child").
*** Kyoryuzin's chest resembles that of Daizyujin... as does the -yujin name. [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Not the first time]] Daizyujin has been homaged with a similarly-named mech.
*** ThePsychoRangers are {{Mooks}} disguised as Rangers and have no special powers, sent impersonate the real team rather than fight them on even terms. (Difference is, Zyuranger's were to get the public against the heroes, while Kyoryuger's were to get the heroes against each other.)
*** Yayoi[[spoiler: /Kyoryu Violet II]]'s dress and hairstyle is very similar to Mei (Ptera Ranger)'s
*** The first Kyoryu Change with all five of the main Kyoryugers was prefaced with TheMentor tossing the part of the TransformationTrinket that makes it function to the group atop a rooftop, much like how Barza did it for his team's first battle so many years ago.
** ''Abaranger'' ones include the dinosaurs being living partners of the heroes, the {{Mooks}} [[DancingTheme dancing]] during the ending theme (though this time joined by our heroes), a restaurant that every hero has entered[[note]](though in ''Abaranger'', it was their base of operations; in ''Kyoryuger'' it's Amy's workplace and the others' occasional hangout.)[[/note]], and [[spoiler:a pterosaur-themed SixthRanger]].
*** And the Ranger rollcall sequence looks more like the end of the TransformationSequence for ''Series/PowerRangersDinoThunder''. Also, due to the DebutQueue, Black was stuck in suit for the longest period.
*** The upgrade mode where the suit gets spikier, though it's only on one arm so far.
*** Blue's "weapon" is a shield.
*** The design of Raiden Kyoryuzin is practically identical to Killer Abaren-Oh, minus Stegaraidon. The pteranodon robot piloted by the SixthRanger transforms into its beast mode and docks with the main robot's back.
*** The Tuperanda Zyudenchi represents an obscure pterosaur called a ''Tupandactylus'' and is colored white, just like Abarekiller.
*** Both series also have an individual named Mikoto, although one's a doctor and the other's a pop idol. They both predominantly wear white, and had been evil at one point.
** Related to both ''Zyuranger'' and ''Abaranger'', there's yet another dino mecha with a [[ThisIsADrill huge drill]] just like Gouryuzin, Abarenoh, and ''Gokaiger'''s Gozyujin; as well as [[spoiler:another Red Ranger SuperMode that borrows powers from teammates like Armed Tryrannoranger and [=AbareMax=].]] Also, dinosaur series seem to like their zigzag patterns.
** The order in which each member reveals their identity roughly follows the order in which the members of [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Jetman]] are recruited (at least in their character archetype): the first is of course [[TheLeader Red]], followed by [[TheOjou Pink/White]], [[TheBigGuy Blue/Yellow]], [[KidHero Green/Blue]] and lastly [[TheCasanova Black]].
** Amy is ''forced'' to stick with the traditional formal speak, which [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Ahim]] was known for all season.[[note]]To illustrate, Gentle calls her out for using the decidedly informal ''[[JapanesePronouns atashi]]'' instead of the much more formal ''[[JapanesePronouns watakushi]]'', which one FanSub [[{{Woolseyism}} equates to the use of contractions in English]].[[/note]]
** The characters seem to have lot of characteristics of past sentai heroes:
*** Red is hot blooded and gains respect from his team mates little by little. Seems like a combination of [[Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman Red Hawk]] and [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger DekaRed]].
*** Black is a sniper who is a ladykiller. Seems like a mix of Black Condor, [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger DekaBlue]] and [[Series/GoGoSentaiBoukenger BoukenBlue]].
*** Blue is a family man who's is older and very strong. Appears to be [[Series/HyakujuuSentaiGaoranger Gao Black]], [[Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger Aba Red]] and [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGoBusters Blue Buster]].
*** Green has issues with his father regarding his fighting style and reverse grip. [=Gao White=] and [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Shinken Gold]] are the ones here, and even RJ from ''Series/PowerRangersJungleFury!''.
*** Pink is a rich lady, who is American and fights with kicks. Seems to be like Miss America, White Swan and [[Series/TokumeiSentaiGoBusters Yellow Buster]].
*** An ActionGirl who's largely raised by her butler and is the only girl on her team until a scientist shows up? Sounds like [[Series/PowerRangersRPM Ranger Operator Series Yellow]]...
** Souji's father Genryu knows Barizorg[[spoiler:/Sid (later Joe)]]'s SignatureMove.
** Ramirez's TransformationSequence calls him a [[Series/PowerRangersJungleFury Spirit Ranger]]. Also a rare male Ranger in the lighter blue color, just like one of PRJF's Spirit Rangers, and an older member of the order just like all of 'em.
** The Kentrospiker is a ramped up Goggle Golden Spear from ''Series/DaiSentaiGoggleFive'', it's a spear and using it involves Black, Blue, Green, Pink put their hands together and catapult a leaping Red even further to the air where he throws it to the MonsterOfTheWeek.
** Utsusemimaru is a member of the previous generation of the team, survives into the present day by being possessed by one of the villainous lieutenants, is responsible for that lieutenant's erratic behavior, and goes all IWorkAlone once freed. It's word-for-word from ''Gaoranger's'' Shirogane.
*** Not to mention that his mecha changes its appearance when it turns from evil to good, just as [=GaoHunter=] did.
** Riku Sanjo expressed a wish to write for ''Series/KamenRiderWizard'' before it aired - and some of the Zyudenchi perform similar functions as Wizard Rings - some pairings include [[FastTunnelling Deinosgrander & Drill]], [[RubberMan Beyonsmo & Extend]], [[{{Fartillery}} Ovirappoo & Smell]], [[Attackofthe50FootWhatever Pukuputor & Big]] and [[SelfDuplication Futabain & Copy]].
*** It comes full circle in Super Hero Taisen Z when Wizard boards Kyoryuzin and has Wizardragon combine with it!
** Episode 10 was not the first time [[spoiler: a member of the team had his soul loaded into one of the team's special items and fired at a teammate who was under an enemy's control. It was how [[Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger Sousuke]] got his body back after being the victim of GrandTheftMe.]]
** The upcoming movie-exclusive ranger, [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Deathryuger]], is an evil extra ranger. Apparently, dinosaurs and evil [[SixthRanger extra rangers]] go hand-in-hand, just like [[Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger Dragon Ranger]] and [[Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger Abare Killer]].
*** Deathryuger's [[ImprobableWeaponUser personal weapon]] doubles as a boomerang and a flute. Another nod to Zyuranger, and the call to force a Snap-together combination sounds a lot like Dragonranger's song to summon Dragon Caesar.
** Episode 21 had the three revived [[PhlebotinumKilledTheDinosaurs Zetsumates]] make their entrance by first showing them flipping through the air in front of the sun. And they had a FinishingMove that involved them passing a ball (in this case, one of Debo Nagareboshi's meteorites) to each other with the third one shooting it at their enemies. [[Series/TaiyouSentaiSunVulcan Where have we seen this before?]]
*** In the same episode, after the Kyoryugers manage to steal said meteorite as their enemies try to do the same attack again, the way they returned the favor looked a lot like the [[Series/HimitsuSentaiGoranger Goranger Storm.]]
** Episode 22 features the awakening of the BigBad in an "Incomplete Form", [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga sound familiar]]?
*** This one sounds more like a ShoutOut than a MythologyGag.
** The Summer Special DVD has two past Debo Monsters BackFromTheDead and planning to turn the Summer Festival into a Blood Festival, read as [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger "Chimatsuri"]].
** Torin's backstory evokes [[Series/GoseiSentaiDairanger Master Kaku]], what with the [[spoiler: being part of the bad guys until he becomes the heroes' mentor thing]].
** The MonsterOfTheWeek from #31 has an ice cream cone [[ThisIsADrill drill arm]]; its special attack? [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Triple Drill Cream]]. (Of special note, both Gojyujin and the Kyoryu mecha being hit, Plezuoh, triple-change from flying vessel to dinosaur to humanoid.)
*** The ''Gokaiger'' mecha homage continues in #32, where Kyoryuzin wielded the Zyuden Bat to become Kyoryuzin Baseball. Gokai-Oh wielded the one-off Gokai Bat weapon in ''Gokaiger'' #8.
** #33 homages an episode of ''Series/GoGoSentaiBoukenger'', where not only is the focus on the Black and SixthRanger, but the Sixth comes in a metallic color ''and'' they display their newfound caramaderie by morphing via contacting their morphers together!
** #36 is an homage to ''Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger'' with the main focus being on the non-humanoid mentor becoming a Ranger. And it's probably not a coincidence that like Dekamaster, [=KyoryuSilver=] is a MasterSwordsman.
*** There's also an homage to ''Series/GoGoSentaiBoukenger'', as both have a silver ranger who is able to perform a FlashStep officially joining the team.
** #40 has Nobuharu's sister, Yuko, taking out mooks with her own SuperStrength, all while [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger sirens are blaring in the background]].
*** She also says in a moment: "What an Emergency"
*** We also have Utsusemimaru, as a cop, saying "Perfect" with an {{Engrish}} that would make Hoji proud (though "Perfect" is a minor CatchPhrase for Ucchi; he learned the word from Amy, and liked it enough to use it correctly even without knowing what it means. [[spoiler:Even as he's dying]]).
*** There's another point where everyone is forced into a high-school movie. Daigo's outfit looks [[Series/KamenRiderFourze familiar]].
*** Take a close look at the [[http://i.imgur.com/5uk29Wp.jpg cover of Amy's Monster Movie DVD]]. The monsters in the cover are [[Series/JukenSentaiGekiranger Infinity Dragon Long]] and [[Series/SeijuuSentaiGingaman Demon Beast Daitanix]].
** Torin's human disguise in #43 is basically Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa cosplaying as [[JAKQDengekitai Big One]].
** #45 continues another tradition in a dinosaur-themed Sentai in [[spoiler:killing off a SixthRanger, although [[EtTuBrute the method in which it was done]] is much different than how it happened the first two times.]]
** The ''Gaburincho of Music'' movie has a scene with Utsusemimaru ordering Pteragordon to [[Series/ChoushinseiFlashman shut his goggles]].
