Mighty Morphin Mecha Rangers! is a fanfic written by Thaeonblade. It is a Mega Crossover, featuring characters from various franchises, including Neon Genesis Evangelion, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, The Big O, Zoids, Vision of Escaflowne and many others.

The story takes place in Angel Groove which is administred by Seto Kaiba and he entrusted Simon the Digger, Roger Smith, Bit Cloud, Van of Fanelia, and Shinji Ikari as the protectors of the city, by blackmailing them into the job. Without means to refuse, they join forces to defend the city, which seems to have more than eyes meet.

The story has also a spin-off, the Parallel Works, which details the backstory of the plot and many characters.

Mighty Morphin Mecha Rangers! contains the following tropes:[]

  • Adaptational Badass: The main team, Kaiba himself and even much of the side cast show shades of this.
    • The villains count as well: Asuka is basically The Dragon to Lelouch alongside Zero (impied to be Suzaku) and Makarov apparently had a plan that involved METEOR.
  • AI Is a Crapshoot: The new Jet-Alone.
  • Alternate History: As detailed in Parallel Works #5, the main differences start during the American War of Independence (also name Washington Rebellion as a continuity nod to Code Geass) Benedict Arnold (and Benjamin Franklin) remain loyal to the independence movement and the slaves are freed to fight against the British, and the United States earns their independence with much more favorable terms. And Britannia emerges after a coalition of European countries defeated Napoleon.
    • Minor in the grand scheme of things, but Nia joined the Dai-Gurren Brigade without Kamina dying.
    • The Autobots and Decepticons awakened Adam and may have accidentally caused Second Impact. (Albeit Megatron was the one who accidentally awakened Adam.)
  • And I Must Scream: Deathwing is angry because he was caught in the Second Impact and trapped inside the Earth, while being forced to hear Barney and Friends's theme song during his confinement.
  • Badass: Take your pick.
  • Barrier Warrior: Shinji in Unit 01.
  • Better Than It Sounds
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Pick a member from the team, really pick one.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: So far we have Gendo Ikari, Lord Genome, Kaworu, the Decepticons, and possibly that thing in Kaiba's basement.
    • With the recent Parallel Works perhaps we should add Makarov?
  • Big Brother Mentor: Who else besides the mighty Kamina?
  • Big Damn Heroes: Kamina and Gurren in the battle against Deathwing and Heero Yuy in the battle against the zord.
  • Black and White Morality: The Mecha Rangers and the Angel Groove Defense Force have to go up against various enemies that would most likely destroy the town For the Evulz...
  • Butt Monkey: Shinji
  • Co-Dragons: Asuka and Suzaku/Zero appear to be this to Lelouch.
  • Cold-Blooded Torture: Shinji gives Deathwing a good bit of this that wouldn't be out of place in his own series.
  • Combining Mecha: All of the main mecha combine into the MechaLord and it keeps combining with Gurren and Kaiba's Blue Eyes White Dragon jet.
  • Crapsack World: To put it lightly.
  • Curb Stomp Battle: The entire second-half of the Deathwing crisis (which eventually culminates with MechaBreakerLordtearing the Dragon's humanoid form apart...AFTER HE BARELY SURVIVES A GIGA DRILL BREAKER!)
    • ( Blackout vs Eva Unit 03 and an entire US army base armed with tanks and mobile suits, guess who wins?)
    • Britannia-backed Germany (lead by the Baroness and Dilandau) against Luxembourg. Then they discover that Luxembourg has a Planet Buster. It doesn't work.
  • Deconstruction Crossover
  • Deconstructive Parody
  • Despair Event Horizon: Shinji managed to stay next to it two times, but never passed it.
  • Epic Fail: Mecha Lord's initial deployment against Ramiel
  • Even Evil Has Standards: Neither Kaiba brother approves of how Shinji is treated by his father.
  • Five-Man Band: The Rangers:
  • Gambit Pileup: Kaiba has a plan, Gendo has a plan, Lordgenome has a plan, Lelouch has a plan, Zechs has a plan...
  • Gorn: Not that much, but the violence is notably a bit more graphic when Shinji's the one doing it.
  • Government Conspiracy: What the underground mines seems to be.
  • Groin Attack: Shinji uses the horn of Unit-01 to strike the crotch of Cloverfield. His teammates then get horrified for this, though it was the only way he could see to destroy the creature.
  • Hand Wave: Some minor issues such as how the pilots all end up in the same cockpit sometimes is told off with awesomeness or nobody even cares enough to ask.
  • Hidden Depths: Kaiba initially seems like his abridged self, but gradually turns out to be as much a Chessmaster as his canon self.
  • Ironic Echo: During the battle with Deathwing, Shinji basically throws his Hannibal Lecture / "The Reason You Suck" Speech back in his face.
  • I Was Told There Would Be Cake: How Kaiba tricked Simon into joining. Simon claims that in the underground village he's from, people will die for a cookie.
  • Jerkass: Kaiba is the most obvious example, but there are a few others.
  • Large Ham: Lots, due to the nature of the fic, but Deathwing excels everyone.
    • In the battle against Cyclopisis, everyone, even more stoic characters like Roger and Heero turns into hammy hotbloodeds.
  • Ludicrous Gibs: The aftermath of the battle against Cloverfield.
