獣電戦隊キョウリュウジャー Started February 17, 2013.

ZyuDen translates to Beasts charging (in the electrical sense). Kyouryuuger is based on kyouryuu/dinosaurs. It gets its name from swapping around Kyouryuu Sentai ZyuRanger's name and changing one part.

Portrayed by Saitou Shuusuke (斉藤秀翼)
The Bullet Brave (Dangan no Yuusha 弾丸の勇者)

Partner - Parasagun
Since the character is western, their name uses the first name, then family name order.
From Europe. Uses English words frequently and is a bit of a flirt/badass. Specializes in guns.

Strong, but clumsy. Nobuharu has a younger sister and a niece named Fukui Yuuko and Rika respectively. He helps to raise Rika since her father is dead.
He works at the Jack-of-all-trades Marufuku.
In Japanese, his nickname is Nossan ノッさん, a shortening of his name and -san. He doesn't like it because it sounds like ossan おっさん which means "old man".
His partner Stegotchi lives in the arctic.

Kyouryuuger Cast4.jpgKyouryuuGreen.jpg

  • Rippuukan Souji / KyouryuuGreen (立風館 ソウジ/キョウリュウグリーン)

The Slashing Brave (Zangeki no Yuusha 斬撃の勇者)
16 years old high school student.
Partner - Zakutor
Souji wears a school uniform and carries around a pole-looking object. His specialty is wielding blades.
There's a scan that says Souji is 18, but the official site says 16.
His father wants his son to inherit the swordsman dojo that he teaches at. However, Souji has different ideas about practicing the assassin technique, the Musouken (無双剣 peerless blade). It turns out that Souji actually is practicing his own style of Musouken, the Zangeki Musouken (斬撃無双剣 Slashing Peerless Blade) which is of course being the Slashing Brave (Zangeki no Yuusha).

Her partner Dricera appears to live in an area that looks like Arizona.
The katakana for her name is pronounced more like Ami. Maybe her name is an homage to the Pink Ranger's actress from Power Rangers?

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
  • The first character of the first five Rangers' names become the Japanese pronunciation of Dinosaur: Daigo, Ian, Nobuharu, Souji, Amy, (dainosoa)
    • Also, the first letter of the first seven Rangers' (Except Nossan) names spell Dinosaur: Daigo, Ian, Nobuharu, Souji, Amy, Utsusemimaru, Ramirez.
    • 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.
  • KyouryuRed Carnival's design references both Zyuranger & Abaranger. The body "teeth" are in the same shape as AbareMax's Power Up. And the boots have the long point triangles on Dragon Ranger's suit. The chest armor may be also be referencing Power Rangers Dinothunder's Red Battlized Ranger Armor. It shares the same shape.
  • The Chevaliers have a Wizard of Oz motif, confirmed from the character designer from the movie DVD bonus. The Lion (Dogold), Tin Man (Aigallon), Scarecrow (Luckyuro), and Dorothy (Candelira). D is also supposed to be a nod towards Toto.

Actor Trivia

  • Orikasa Ai (Luckyuro) has also voiced Madou Ring Silva on Garo.
  • Nobuharu's sister is played by DekaYellow, Kinoshita Ayumi
  • Amy's butler Gentle is played by Shimazu Kentarou who has been in a number of other toku shows.
  • Ian's friend, Shirou is played by Go-On Black, Ebisawa Kenji.
  • Tessai is played by BoukenSilver, Deai Masayuki.
