Awesome / Kousoku Sentai Turboranger

Go To

  • There are too many to list, but the one that comes off as being most awesome is where Red Turbo fights Yamimaru to a duel to the death.
    • Don't forget the fact that he also managed to kill the Big Bad of the series single-handedly, although said Big Bad got better, though.
  • If there's any feat that's always mentioned in Haruna's portfolio, it would be her Fake Defector stint, suddenly acting like she's amnesiac and pulled a massive Faceā€“Heel Turn just to reveal an antidote she's looking for to cure a poisoned Youhei, hamming it up with Evil Laugh and complete with the costume. And it is awesome.
  • Kenta Satou, the actor portraying Riki Honoo, is also known for singing the Turboranger theme himself. What a multi-talented individual.
  • According to a poll filled out by 30-something Japanese sentai fans, Riki Honoo/Red Turbo is the most popular Red Ranger in Japan, beating out luminaries like Captain Marvelous/Gokai Red, Takeru Shiba/Shinken Red, and Sasuke/Ninja Red. TyrannoRanger is in 6th place, by the way.
  • The first formation of the Super Turbo Robo in episode 30 and everything leading up to it. Dr. Lehda's final monster, the mighty Super-Majin Boma (the "guardian god" of the Boma Tribes), has been kicking the Turborangers' butts, and they've barely been able to affect repairs to the Turbo Truck (damaged the episode prior). Because of Lehda's forcing Yamimaru out of the area (he had taken Dr. Dazai hostage and wanted the Turborugger in exchange; the Super-Majin Boma's arrival made Yamimaru flee), Dazai had to pilot the Turborugger against the Boma while still handcuffed. He made a valiant effort, but Lehda buried the Turborugger in sand. The Super-Majin Boma then turned its' attention to the Turbobuilder, but Seelon held it at bay with the Turbobuilder's numerous cannons until the Turbo Truck is fully repaired. While the other Rangers rescue the Turborugger from the sand pit, Riki takes on Leyda in solo combat. The tide begins to turn when the Turbo Robo is flung near the buried Turborugger by the Boma — their hands meet, causing an energy surge that distracts Leyda (causing him to lose control of the illusions he'd been attacking Riki with). He slashes apart Ledya's cape (the source of the illusions), and impales Leyda with the GT Sword, before finishing him off with the GT Crash. That taken care of, Riki returns to the cockpit and initiates the combination sequence. The Super Turbo Robo is shown to dwarf the Boma in sheer height, sending the latter stumbling back from its' sheer presence. They promptly finish off the Boma with the Super Mirage Beam, leaving Lagorn with no generals.
