Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger/Trivia

• Defictionalization: Z-Cune Aoi is being made into a real manga series.
• Hey, It's That Guy!:
  • Karin Ogino (Yumeria Moegi) played Belle in the Kamen Rider OOO Wonderful movie.
    • And her mom is Rica Matsumoto!
  • The two men who walk into the Sentai Cafe in #3 are friends of the director--Ryuta Tasaki--and have a history in tokusatsu. Shocker Ono (the bandana'd one) is a famous Japanese personality, former toku stuntman and was once Ishimori Pro's manager. The other one, Kaneko Yoshinobu, played Aokage, the young sidekick of the title character in Kamen no Ninja Akakage.
  • Douji/Bishop appears in #8.
• Hey, It's That Voice!: Hatsune Miku can be heard in the background music.
  • Professor Hiroyo may also be known as the voice of Sankarea
  • The singer of the OP is Halko Momoi and Yukio Yamagata, who sang Gaoranger's OP.
  • Hikaru Midorikawa is the #3 monster (and #5, same guy revived). Takaya Kuroda is this in #4.
  • Taiki Matsuno is #6's monster.
  • Tomokazu Seki voices #8's monster and is also the Toei security guard.
• No Budget: Compared with other modern Sentai, there's a noticable drop in quality across the board. From the CGI & effects to the monster/mook design to the fight choreography to even the Akibaranger suits themselves.
  • May be justified in that the show targets an older demographic, and of course by being an Affectionate Parody.
  • Also consider the time they spend in their suits is more to set up gags and in-suit related humor as opposed to just fighting.
  • Then again, the Akibaranger helmets are much more uniquely detailed (the anime hair would require a more elaborate molding procedure then the standard Super Sentai helmets,) the costumes contain full armor instead of just the usual spandex, and instead of the standard rubber costume, the mecha is done in much more costly CGI, so YMMV on this one.
    • That's why the mecha is only used in episodes 2 and 7 so far.
