In February 1992, the sixth installment in the Super Sentai series titled Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger made its debut. It would become the first sentai series to be adapted for the first installment of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series. Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger would continue until February 1993. The footage from all 50 episodes would be used extensively in the Mighty Morphin series, which includes the core Zyuranger costumes used in three of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers seasons being used as the original costumes in the American series.
The Dragon Ranger’s costume was adapted into the Green Ranger’s costume and was used in season one and throughout early season two. Other elements from other Super Sentai shows were incorporated into the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as well.
After tragedy strikes, an unlikely young hero takes her rightful place among the Power Rangers to face off against the team’s oldest archnemesis.
