''Mirai Sentai Timeranger'' (Future Squadron Timeranger) is the twenty-fourth installment in the ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' series, running from 2000 to 2001.
By the year 3000AD, TimeTravel has been discovered and thoroughly developed. To prevent possible abuses of this technology, it is regulated by the TimePolice, an intergalactic organisation that also captures dangerous alien criminals and holds them in [[HumanPopsicle cryogenic stasis]] for the length of their sentence.
One such criminal, Don Dorneiro, escapes from the Time Police, hijacks a prison ship full of convicts and flees to the year 2000AD. Captain Ryūya of the Time Police sends four cadets to the past to capture him and his minions, Lira and Gien.
Unfortunately, the cadets have been deceived by Lira (masquerading as their captain) and are almost killed upon reaching the 21st century. With their [[TimeMachine Timeship]] destroyed, the cadets are trapped in the past until they can apprehend Don Dorneiro and his gang. To aid their mission, they have access to powerful transformation devices called Chrono Changers. However, the Timeranger Project requires all five Chrono Changers to be activated at the same time.
Enter Tatsuya Asami, an idealistic young man yearning to break free from his oppressive father and future as the heir of the prestigious Asami Group corporation. Happening upon the cadets, he becomes their fifth member and vows to change the future for the better even against the [[YouCantFightFate pessimism]] of the other four Timerangers. Later on, an old university acquaintance of Tatsuya called Naoto Takizawa seizes some of the Timeranger technology for himself and becomes Time Fire, a [[TheRival Rival]] and {{Foil}} to Tatsuya himself.
A major theme in ''Timeranger'' is the nature of fate. The characters of the future, being from a period where TimeTravel has been extensively researched, [[TheFatalist are resigned]] to the fact that [[YouCantFightFate the future is entirely predetermined]]. On the other hand, the characters from the present day are determined to change their own destinies: Tatsuya wishes to break free from the future that has been decided for him since his birth, while Naoto wants to gain power in a world where connections and nepotism mean more than hard work. Eventually, the team discover that the entire story was set in motion by [[TheManBehindTheMan one solitary person]] whose only wish was to [[ScrewDestiny change his own future]].
!!The Heroes:
* Tatsuya Asami: ('''Time Red'''): TheHero and a LonelyRichKid who wants to run away from the Asami name. Got roped into the whole Timeranger thing when [[RookieRedRanger he stumbled into the rest of the team while jogging]]
* Yuuri: ('''Time Pink'''): The [[{{Tsundere}} Tsundereish]] ActionGirl. The team's effective leader. Has an ItsPersonal issue with Don Dorneiro.
* Ayase: ('''Time Blue'''): A DeadpanSnarker racer and TheLancer in second-in-command. Because he has [[IllBoy an incurable disease]], he has given up on life and become a DeathSeeker.
* Domon: ('''Time Yellow'''): TheBigGuy and sometimes a HandsomeLech. Used to be an [[MixedMartialArts MMA]] grappler but he was banned from the ring for being late to matches.
* Sion: ('''Time Green'''): TheSmartGuy and MrFixIt. An alien from the DoomedHometown of Planet Hummard and LastOfHisKind. [[KidAppealCharacter Childish]] and [[{{Adorkable}} cute]]. Has empathetic powers. Changes his hair colour every few episodes.
* Naoto Takizawa: ('''Time Fire'''): SixthRanger, from the present. A {{Jerkass}} [[TheRival Rival]] to Tatsuya who seizes the power of [=TimeFire=] so that he can take control of his own destiny and advance up the professional ladder. Resents Tatsuya because he believes he was given everything on a plate, while Naoto had to work hard to be acknowledged (and never was to the same level as Tatsuya).
* T.A.C.: A robot owl that acts as MissionControl.
* Time Robota: TeamPet sort of. Has a VerbalTic, adding 'Time!' in her sentences.
!!The villains, who call themselves the Londers Family after the name of the prison ship they have hijacked:
* Don Dorneiro: [[BigBad The Big Bad]]. Likes money, power, women and money (in that order). Yes, he's ''that'' kind of [[TheMafia Don]].
* Lira: [[DarkChick The Dark Chick]]. Employed by Don Dorneiro to provide some fun and refreshment to his dark and dismal life. Freely admits that she is a GoldDigger.
* Gien: An EvilGenius robot who acts as Don Dorneiro's right-hand man. He later goes AxCrazy and becomes TheStarscream.
* Zenitts: Robot {{Mooks}}.
Adapted as ''Series/PowerRangersTimeForce''; the adaptation is one of the closest ever done to the original Sentai.

!!'''Recurring''' Franchise/SuperSentai tropes:
* AllYourPowersCombined
* ByThePowerOfGreyskull: "Chrono Changer!" For Naoto, it's "Time Fire!"
* CallingYourAttacks
* CombinationAttack
* CoolBike: Averted. This was the first Sentai without a proper road vehicle. The closest thing was the Time Flyer, a small hovercraft that was at least large enough to carry the main team.
* {{Crossover}}: ''Timeranger vs. [[RescueSentaiGogoFive GoGoFive]]''
* EvilCounterpart: Naoto to Tatsuya. There's a reason they both get the red suits. [[spoiler:But a ''second'' EvilCounterpart exists in Ryuya, who also wishes to change his own fate. But he does so out of purely selfish reasons and by changing the past instead of the future.]]
* FinishingMove: Slight subversion; the finishers are meant to shrink, not kill, their adversaries.
* FiveManBand:
** TheHero: Tatsuya
** [[TheChick The Female]] [[TheLeader Leader]]: Yuuri
** TheLancer: Ayase [[hottip:*:While Yuuri the effectual leader would've been TheLancer, Ayase directly contrasts the optimistic Tatsuya by being one of the most melancholic, standoffish lone wolf guy (Aside of Naoto)]]
** TheBigGuy: Domon
** TheSmartGuy: Sion
** SixthRanger: Naoto
* HomeBase
* HumongousMecha: After several shows with multiple combining robots, ''Timeranger'' went back to having one individual mecha per ranger. Instead, their main set of mechas now have three possible combined forms (two robot forms and a jet).
** AMechByAnyOtherName: The Time Jets.
** CombiningMecha: Time Jet 1 (Red) + 2 (Blue) + 3 (Green) + 4 (Yellow) + 5 (Pink) = Time Robo Alpha, Time Robo Beta or Time Jet Gamma
** RobotBuddy: Providus
** TransformingMecha: The Time Shadow, which transforms between Stealth Mode (jet) or Time Mode (robot), and the [[AnimalMecha V-Rex]], which transforms into the V-Rex Robo.
** MechaExpansionPack: The Time Shadow, which combines with either Time Robo formation.
*** Time Robo Alpha + Time Shadow = Time Robo Shadow Alpha
*** Time Robo Beta + Time Shadow = Time Robo Shadow Beta
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Episodes are called "Case Files," and each one has a date attached to it.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: "Timeranger! (Prisoner)! You're under arrest!"
** They do a combined roll call with [[RescueSentaiGoGoFive GoGoFive]] during their team-up movie.

!!Tropes specific to MiraiSentaiTimeranger:
* TenMinuteRetirement - [[spoiler: Tatsuya, when Ryūya took his Chrono Changer and he had to lead his father's company.]]
* ActingForTwo - Tatsuya and Captain Ryūya are both played by Masaru Nagai.
* AlmightyJanitor - Sometimes the rangers get jobs that involved cleaning.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter - Naoto to Tatsuya. However, Tatsuya also feels the same way: because Tatsuya comes from a rich family with great social influence, no one will take him seriously.
* BelligerentSexualTension - Arguing every step of the way while being chased by your enemies should certainly make them qualify...
* BigEater - Domon.
* BittersweetEnding - [[spoiler:The disaster in 2000AD that would have wiped out two-thirds of the Earth has been averted, and Tatsuya and Yuri finally confess their love to each other. But the Time Agents have to return to the future, and depending on whether or not Captain Ryūya was telling the truth about the changes made to history, it may be the same future they came from: one where Domon is still banned from the ring, Ayase is definitely going to die and Yuri's family is still dead]].
* BrokenAesop - In episode 17, an aesop is taught that fighting is wrong, even in self-defense - in a ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' series, where fights are the preferred method of problem solving.
* BrokenBird - Yuuri has hints of this as her family was murdered when she was ten.
* CasanovaWannabe - The reason why Domon never seems to get a student for his self defense class.
* CatchPhrase - 'Time's Up' and 'The End'
* TheChessmaster - [[spoiler: Ryūya. But he still fails]]
* ConspicuousCG: Used slightly jarringly for the transformation sequences of the main five, but they try to cover it up by heavy use of rotating the angle at which the viewer sees the CG Timerangers (this works better for some than others).
* CorruptCorporateExecutive - Dorneiro actually manages to get rich enough and becomes an executive of a company.
* CookingDuel - Not exactly between two cooks but an iron soba chef Domon against a food taster Londers.
* CrimeFightingWithCash - The City Guardians and when Naoto became [=TimeFire=].
* DarkerAndEdgier - ''Timeranger'' is quite possibly the most straight-faced and serious ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' series in the Heisei era.
* DeadlyDoctor - One episode had a mad doctor monster taking over a hospital.
* DefrostingIceQueen - Yuri, thanks to CharacterDevelopment
* DeathSeeker - Because Ayase has the incurable Osiris Syndrome, he practically chooses to completely forget his well-being to protect people.
* EvaFins: Time Robo Beta has very tall shoulders.
* TheFatalist - The characters from the year 3000AD. Augmented by the fact that they are from a time period where TimeTravel has been greatly researched and accept it as common knowledge that [[YouCantFightFate the future cannot be changed]]. [[spoiler:The series never answers the question of whether it ''is'' possible, but it does instil the message that whether or not time is predetermined, you have to possess hope for the future]].
* FirstNameBasis - Every Timeranger whose suit color isn't red.
* FlungClothing - Sometimes part of the rangers' transformation sequence to reveal their Chrono Suits. They usually throw said clothing on their opponents' faces.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Lira's specialty.
* GadgeteerGenius - Sion. His usually odd job is also fixing broken electronics.
* GoldDigger - Lira even tells Dorneiro outright that she'll keep loving him if he keeps giving her money. [[spoiler: But when Dorneiro died she also said that even without the money she will still have liked Dorneiro a little]]
* HeroicBSOD - [[spoiler: T.A.C. in a very late episode. Because he just doesn't seem to have the crucial data the rangers needed.]]
* HeelFaceTurn - [[spoiler: Dorneiro, who attempts to help the City Guardians and the Timerangers in order to stop Gien. [[RedemptionEqualsDeath his final attempt to stop Gien results in his death]], but not before handing over all of the remaining Londers prisoners to the Timerangers]]
* IdenticalGrandson - Ryūya says he came from the Tatsuya's bloodline and they're both played by Masaru Nagai (although Nagai changes his hairstyle when playing Ryūya).
* InstantAwesomeJustAddNinja - [=TimeShadow=], a stealth jet which turns into a gigantic ninja robot.
* IHaveYourWife - Well your RobotBuddy alarm clock in one episode.
* IWasJustPassingThrough - Naoto used this excuse once.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold - Ayase and Naoto. Naoto borders a lot more on the JerkAss though, but gradually becomes more willing to work with the other rangers as the series progresses.
* KilledOffForReal - [[spoiler: Naoto and Ryūya.]]
* LethalChef - Yuuri. She got better in the later episodes. Domon's soba chef friend Sugara also counts and he got better.
* LittlestCancerPatient - A kid named Taichi in one episode.
* MadScientist - Gien, especially in the later episodes where he completely went bonkers for death and destruction.
* TheManBehindTheMan - [[spoiler:Captain Ryūya. He orchestrated everything, including Dorneiro's release and Naoto's death, because he saw a glimpse of two possible timelines - in both of which he would die - and wished to change history so that he would survive. He succeeds in changing history, but is killed in a different way instead]].
* MeaningfulName - All three main villain are named after forms of currency; specifically, Dolnero from ''dinheiro'', Lila from ''lira'' and Gien from ''Yen'', the former two are currencies of Portugal and Italy, respectively (and the first one is still the Portuguese word for "money").
* MomentKiller - [[spoiler: There was a breakfast scene where Tatsuya and Yuuri were alone and enjoying themselves over pancakes when Sion suddenly bursts in, making the couple bounce several inches from each other.]]
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone - [[spoiler: Dorneiro's reaction after Gien's conversion to a robot.]]
* MultiformBalance: The red, sword-wielding Time Robo Alpha is generally sturdier and better in close combat, while the blue, gun-wielding Time Robo Beta is more agile. Time Jet Gamma is for [[StoneWall sturdy defenses]] and safe time travel.
* OfficialCouple - [[spoiler: Honami and Domon (They even have a child!) and Tatsuya and Yuuri via LastMinuteHookup in the finale. But of course Yuuri and Domon still have to return to the future...]]
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou - It came to the point that Yuuri shielded Dorneiro from [[spoiler: Gien]]'s attack because she wants to be the one to arrest him and complete her revenge.
* OnlySaneMan - There was one episode where the rangers drank a 30th century wine and rendered them to think like playful children. Sion, being an alien, wasn't affected.
* PapaWolf - Domon beats the living crap out of the MonsterOfTheWeek that kidnapped Sion...
* PetTheDog - Naoto has his moments, especially when it involves a little girl and his pet birds.
* PrisonShip: The villains hijack a Prison Ship and name themselves after it.
* PsychicPowers - An alien that Sion befriended had telekinesis.
* RedOniBlueOni - Tatsuya and Naoto.

* RobotBuddy - T.A.C. and then later Robota.
* ScrewDestiny - [[spoiler: By the end of the series, "You were also told that you can't do what you want to do. You can't return to the future. Even if you can't save the future, let's just save tomorrow."]]

* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan - Sion and Domon.
* ShoutOut - The G-[[Franchise/PowerRangers Zord]].
** There are some obvious nods towards ''Film/TheMatrix'', including a BulletTime scene in the first episode, along with Time Robo Beta's first fight containing a 360-Degree camera spin as the mech fires on the [=MotW=] in midair.
** The Time Robo is a {{homage}} to Jet Icarus from ''ChoujinSentaiJetman'', which also had a jet mode for its mecha.
*** The similarities to ''Jetman'' don't end there. The Timerangers themselves are sort of an inversion of the Jetmen, with a RookieRedRanger and four more experienced time cops, whereas Red Hawk was the only Jetman with actual training. Gien also has some parallels to Tranza.
* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish - The V-Commander, Naoto's TransformationTrinket, speaks several complete sentences of ''perfect'' English.
* SheCleansUpNicely - Yuuri in one episode, after a lady Londers made fun of her tomboyishness (Can't cook or do feminine things).
* SomeoneToRememberHimBy - [[spoiler: Honami has Domon Jr in the finale. Though of course Domon didn't die but just went back to his time...]]
* ThisIsADrill - The City Guardian's Raimei battle tank had a drill but never got to use it.
* TimeyWimeyBall - The last 4th of the series, once [[spoiler: Captain Ryūya and the G-zord]] show up.
* TyrannosaurusRex - Time Fire's V-Rex
* UglyGuyHotWife - Not exactly married to Lira, but Dorneiro is not exactly handsome at all. Well to humans anyway.
* VerbalTic - Robota ends most of its sentences with the word "time."
* WasOnceAMan - [[spoiler: Gien, who was originally a simple, but good natured young man who ended up trying to help Dorneiro out. After he was nearly killed, Dorneiro had his brain transferred to a robotic body, only to result in making Gien into a psychopath.]]
* WifeHusbandry: Averted in episode 33; guest character Emily, whom Ayase guarded, asks if she can marry him later. Ayase [[IllBoy ''sort of'' agrees, but he knows he can't do it]].
* WillTheyOrWontThey - [[spoiler: Yuuri and Tatsuya]]
* YouCantFightFate - [[spoiler: Despite manipulating everything to change history and avoid his death, Ryūya still dies on the same date he would have originally died, just a thousand years later and by a different method]].
** As for Tatsuya, [[spoiler: he will eventually become the head of the Asami Group just as history dictated... but on his own terms]].
* YourDaysAreNumbered - Ayase having an incurable disease means he only has around a year or two to live.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Lira, even more than Shibolena and Denus up to point that she "always has it" (basically, never appear without one), but she has [[RoseHairedGirl pink hair]]. Sion, on the other hand, tends to dye his hair colors like blue and green.
* YouKilledMyFather - Dorneiro also killed Yuuri's mother and younger sister.
* VillainTeleportation - Actually, this is only one to show "how" that the villains teleport themselves (Gien used his device to teleport).

-->''"Even if we can't change the future, we can change tomorrow."''
''Mirai Sentai Timeranger'' (Future Squadron Timeranger) is the twenty-fourth installment in the ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' series, running from 2000 to 2001.
By the year 3000AD, TimeTravel has been discovered and thoroughly developed. To prevent possible abuses of this technology, it is regulated by the TimePolice, an intergalactic organisation that also captures dangerous alien criminals and holds them in [[HumanPopsicle cryogenic stasis]] for the length of their sentence.
One such criminal, Don Dorneiro, escapes from the Time Police, hijacks a prison ship full of convicts and flees to the year 2000AD. Captain Ryūya of the Time Police sends four cadets to the past to capture him and his minions, Lira and Gien.
Unfortunately, the cadets have been deceived by Lira (masquerading as their captain) and are almost killed upon reaching the 21st century. With their [[TimeMachine Timeship]] destroyed, the cadets are trapped in the past until they can apprehend Don Dorneiro and his gang. To aid their mission, they have access to powerful transformation devices called Chrono Changers. However, the Timeranger Project requires all five Chrono Changers to be activated at the same time.
Enter Tatsuya Asami, an idealistic young man yearning to break free from his oppressive father and future as the heir of the prestigious Asami Group corporation. Happening upon the cadets, he becomes their fifth member and vows to change the future for the better even against the [[YouCantFightFate pessimism]] of the other four Timerangers. Later on, an old university acquaintance of Tatsuya called Naoto Takizawa seizes some of the Timeranger technology for himself and becomes Time Fire, a [[TheRival Rival]] and {{Foil}} to Tatsuya himself.
A major theme in ''Timeranger'' is the nature of fate. The characters of the future, being from a period where TimeTravel has been extensively researched, [[TheFatalist are resigned]] to the fact that [[YouCantFightFate the future is entirely predetermined]]. On the other hand, the characters from the present day are determined to change their own destinies: Tatsuya wishes to break free from the future that has been decided for him since his birth, while Naoto wants to gain power in a world where connections and nepotism mean more than hard work. Eventually, the team discover that the entire story was set in motion by [[TheManBehindTheMan one solitary person]] whose only wish was to [[ScrewDestiny change his own future]].
!!The Heroes:
* Tatsuya Asami: ('''Time Red'''): TheHero and a LonelyRichKid who wants to run away from the Asami name. Got roped into the whole Timeranger thing when [[RookieRedRanger he stumbled into the rest of the team while jogging]]
* Yuuri: ('''Time Pink'''): The [[{{Tsundere}} Tsundereish]] ActionGirl. The team's effective leader. Has an ItsPersonal issue with Don Dorneiro.
* Ayase: ('''Time Blue'''): A DeadpanSnarker racer and TheLancer in second-in-command. Because he has [[IllBoy an incurable disease]], he has given up on life and become a DeathSeeker.
* Domon: ('''Time Yellow'''): TheBigGuy and sometimes a HandsomeLech. Used to be an [[MixedMartialArts MMA]] grappler but he was banned from the ring for being late to matches.
* Sion: ('''Time Green'''): TheSmartGuy and MrFixIt. An alien from the DoomedHometown of Planet Hummard and LastOfHisKind. [[KidAppealCharacter Childish]] and [[{{Adorkable}} cute]]. Has empathetic powers. Changes his hair colour every few episodes.
* Naoto Takizawa: ('''Time Fire'''): SixthRanger, from the present. A {{Jerkass}} [[TheRival Rival]] to Tatsuya who seizes the power of [=TimeFire=] so that he can take control of his own destiny and advance up the professional ladder. Resents Tatsuya because he believes he was given everything on a plate, while Naoto had to work hard to be acknowledged (and never was to the same level as Tatsuya).
* T.A.C.: A robot owl that acts as MissionControl.
* Time Robota: TeamPet sort of. Has a VerbalTic, adding 'Time!' in her sentences.
!!The villains, who call themselves the Londers Family after the name of the prison ship they have hijacked:
* Don Dorneiro: [[BigBad The Big Bad]]. Likes money, power, women and money (in that order). Yes, he's ''that'' kind of [[TheMafia Don]].
* Lira: [[DarkChick The Dark Chick]]. Employed by Don Dorneiro to provide some fun and refreshment to his dark and dismal life. Freely admits that she is a GoldDigger.
* Gien: An EvilGenius robot who acts as Don Dorneiro's right-hand man. He later goes AxCrazy and becomes TheStarscream.
* Zenitts: Robot {{Mooks}}.
Adapted as ''Series/PowerRangersTimeForce''; the adaptation is one of the closest ever done to the original Sentai.

!!'''Recurring''' Franchise/SuperSentai tropes:
* AllYourPowersCombined
* ByThePowerOfGreyskull: "Chrono Changer!" For Naoto, it's "Time Fire!"
* CallingYourAttacks
* CombinationAttack
* CoolBike: Averted. This was the first Sentai without a proper road vehicle. The closest thing was the Time Flyer, a small hovercraft that was at least large enough to carry the main team.
* {{Crossover}}: ''Timeranger vs. [[RescueSentaiGogoFive GoGoFive]]''
* EvilCounterpart: Naoto to Tatsuya. There's a reason they both get the red suits. [[spoiler:But a ''second'' EvilCounterpart exists in Ryuya, who also wishes to change his own fate. But he does so out of purely selfish reasons and by changing the past instead of the future.]]
* FinishingMove: Slight subversion; the finishers are meant to shrink, not kill, their adversaries.
* FiveManBand:
** TheHero: Tatsuya
** [[TheChick The Female]] [[TheLeader Leader]]: Yuuri
** TheLancer: Ayase [[hottip:*:While Yuuri the effectual leader would've been TheLancer, Ayase directly contrasts the optimistic Tatsuya by being one of the most melancholic, standoffish lone wolf guy (Aside of Naoto)]]
** TheBigGuy: Domon
** TheSmartGuy: Sion
** SixthRanger: Naoto
* HomeBase
* HumongousMecha: After several shows with multiple combining robots, ''Timeranger'' went back to having one individual mecha per ranger. Instead, their main set of mechas now have three possible combined forms (two robot forms and a jet).
** AMechByAnyOtherName: The Time Jets.
** CombiningMecha: Time Jet 1 (Red) + 2 (Blue) + 3 (Green) + 4 (Yellow) + 5 (Pink) = Time Robo Alpha, Time Robo Beta or Time Jet Gamma
** RobotBuddy: Providus
** TransformingMecha: The Time Shadow, which transforms between Stealth Mode (jet) or Time Mode (robot), and the [[AnimalMecha V-Rex]], which transforms into the V-Rex Robo.
** MechaExpansionPack: The Time Shadow, which combines with either Time Robo formation.
*** Time Robo Alpha + Time Shadow = Time Robo Shadow Alpha
*** Time Robo Beta + Time Shadow = Time Robo Shadow Beta
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Episodes are called "Case Files," and each one has a date attached to it.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: "Timeranger! (Prisoner)! You're under arrest!"
** They do a combined roll call with [[RescueSentaiGoGoFive GoGoFive]] during their team-up movie.
---> '''Tatsuya''': "The lives of people are the ''future'' of this planet!"
---> '''Matoi''': "Burning ''Rescue'' spirits!"
----> '''[=GoGoFive=]''': "''[=Kyukyu=] Sentai - !''"
----> '''Matoi''': "''Go! Go!''"
----> '''All''': "''Five!''" "''Timeranger''!"
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Each prisoner has a seal on their body that was used to shrink them; breaking it off has the ''opposite'' effect.
* MonsterOfTheWeek: Actually prisoners.
* {{Mook}}s: Zenitts, the MechaMooks. Gien even calls the cannon fodder troops!
* OnTheNextEpisodeOfCatchPhrase
* RobotBuddy: T.A.C. and Robota.
