Deboss Army
デーボス軍
- Hundred-Faced Priest Chaos 百面神官カオス- Voiced by Sugou Takayuki 菅生隆之
The commanders in the Deboss Army appear to take their names and theme from the word KiDoAiRaku which means "The spectrum of human emotions". The kanji for that word is 喜怒哀楽 which is the first kanji in their titles, each kanji meaning Joy, Fury, Sorrow, and Enjoyment respectively. Also the sound forms their names. Ki in Kya/Ca, Do, Ai, and Raku becomes Luck.
- Chevalier of Joy Candelira 喜びの戦騎キャンデリラ - Voiced by Tomatsu Haruka 戸松 遥
- Name is possibly a combination of Ki for joy, Lira, and maybe Candy.
- Character design motif is hearts.
- http://www31.atwiki.jp/sentai-kaijin/pages/3948.html
- Chevalier of Fury Dogold 怒りの戦騎ドゴルド - Voiced by Tsuruoka Satoshi 鶴岡 聡
- Name is possibly a combination of Do/Anger, gold, and Doru/dollars.
- Looks like an oni with nuclear signs on his body.
- http://www31.atwiki.jp/sentai-kaijin/pages/3949.html
- Chevalier of Sorrow Aigallon 哀しみの戦騎アイガロン - Voiced by Mizushima Yuu 水島 裕
- Name is possibly a combination of Ai/sorrow, and gallon, the unit of tears that he sheds. Eyegallon is another possible variation on the name, since he appears to have eyes all over his body, and it would fit his crying motif.
- Motif is an umbrella?
- http://www31.atwiki.jp/sentai-kaijin/pages/3950.html
- Emissary of Enjoyment Luckyuro 楽しみの密偵ラッキューロ - Voiced by Orikasa Ai 折笠 愛
- Name is possibly a combination of Raku/enjoyment, Luck, and Euro.
- Has the body of a patchwork figure.
- http://www31.atwiki.jp/sentai-kaijin/pages/3951.html
- Zourima ゾーリ魔 - Foot soldiers of the Deboss Army
- From the Japanese word for Zourimushi, a species of unicellular organisms, and ma/demon. Going along with the money theme, the symbol on their chest looks like the cents ¢ symbol flipped around. Along the middle are the three masks of emotions.

Trivia
- The dinosaur themed Sentai are almost separated by 10 years. ZyuRanger 1992, Abaranger 2003, Kyouryuuger 2013.
- The show name is almost a perfect anagram for Kyouryuu Sentai ZyuRanger. It just has the r turned into a d.
- Kyouryuu Sentai Jyurenjaa
- Jyuden Sentai Kyouryuujaa
- If this were written in katakana, taking the first character of their given names gives Dinosaur (Da-i-no-so-a ダイノソア) Daigo, Ian, Nobuharu, Souji, Amy.
- And their family names spell Kyouryuu (キョウリュウ) which is the Japanese word for dinosaur. Kiryuu, Yorkland, Udou, Rippuukan, Yuuzuki, Utsusemimaru
- Toei producer Oomori Takahito stated that there's no yellow in this series because they wanted the characters to seem strong (and manly) because of the dinosaur theme. And they didn't want to have a male yellow since modern kids associate yellows with females. [1][2]
- The vamola in the show is from Portuguese. The correct way to write it should be "Vamos lá".
- The restaurant above the team's base is called Tiger Boy. This is probably a reference to TigerRanger Boi. Plus the sign is on a bright yellow background. This year's Sentai may not have a Yellow, but it's got one spiritually.
- Might be a stretch, but Amy being from America might mean that her name is a reference to the actress for Pink Ranger in Power Rangers.
