## Errors

* The new footage created for the Lion Thunderzord has two extra rear legs during the American-produced transformation from the Mastodon. Neither the toy itself nor the adapted Dairanger footage featured these extra legs. Additionally, the head of the Lion was recolored black for the new footage but remained green in Dairanger footage, as that series did not actually have a Black Ranger.
* Due to the need to splice footage between Zyu2 and Dairanger, Zord battles would occasionally show bits and pieces of the original Megazord rather than the Thunder Megazord, usually obscured by explosions, sparks, or smoke.

## Notes

* This is the first season to begin with eight Rangers.
* In Gosei Sentai Dairanger (which Season 2 was based on), Tommy's White Ranger counterpart, Kou of the Howling New Star, is actually a child, which is why Tommy appears shorter in his first fight as the White Ranger.
* This is the only season where a part of the Rangers' arsenal was directly upgraded from a previous season's tools, with the seven original Dinozords from season 1 being used as foundations for the Thunderzords of this season.
* Before deciding to use the *Dairanger* footage, sketches were created for original Thunderzords, essentially updated Dinozords, though an updated Tigerzord was used as part of this as well.
* Despite being adapted from *Gosei Sentai Dairanger*, the core Zyuranger costumes from the previous season and Zyuranger are still used rather than replacing them with the Dairanger suits, though Tommy's new White Ranger costume is from the sixth Ranger of Dairanger.
* Due to a combination of splicing footage and lack of props, the Rangers' previously established weapons and sidearms cease to be used, the only exception being Tommy's sword Saba due to the available Dairanger footage. Although a prop of the Dragon Dagger was created for new scenes, it was never used in battle.
* Most footage for this season was not produced for Super Sentai.
* This is the first Power Rangers series to feature a Red Ranger who does not serve as the team leader.
* This is the first season where the Rangers' Zords have a cockpit that differs from the Sentai version.
