Synopsis

Kenta Date, a high-school student, is the ultimate champion of an arcade video game called "Megaranger". He belongs to the Cybernetics club, a group of like minded friends from his school. Miku Imamura, Kouichiro Endou, Chiasato Jougaseski, and Shun Namiki are also members of Cybernetics. The International Network of Excel-Science and Technology (INET), the games creators, invite Kenta and the Cybernetics club members to tour the INET laboratories. Following a short tour of the INET HQ buildings, the company is attacked by the Neijirejia, an evil force led by Dr. Hinelar on a mission to conquer the current reality. Dr. Kubota, INET's chief scientist, reveals that Megaranger was more than only a simple video game but actually a combat simulator to identify potential recruits for a super fighting team to combat the Neijirejia. While the INET headquarters (HQ) is destroyed by the Neijirejia warrior Yugande, Dr. Kubota gives Kenta and his friends devices known as 'Digitizers'. By entering the key-code "3-3-5" and shouting "Install, Megaranger!", Date, Endou, Namiki, Jougasaki and Imamura transform into the Denji Sentai Megaranger ("Megarangers"), a fighting team.
After fighting Yugande, the Megarangers retreat from the exploding INET HQ in the Galaxy Mega (space ship). Guirail, sent by Javious , injures Yugande. Dr. Hinelar poisons Guirail turning him into Mad Guirail. The Megarangers abandon the damaged Galaxy Mega and fly the Delta Mega (space ship) to the INET Moonbase where INET member Yuusaku Hayakawa runs the Space Mega Project. The Rangers destroy Guirail with Mega Voyager which is a new mecha created from five previous Voyager Machines. Hayakawa becomes Mega Silver, who can conquer time but only for two and a half minutes. Dr. Hinelar creates the Evil Nejirangers by draining energy from "Javious the First", after both the original Nejirangers and Javious are destroyed. Dr. Hinelar creates Nejirejia City where he resurrects the Nejirangers as data cards. Dr. Hinelar discovers the true identities of the Megaangers while Shibolena accesses the INET database and locates the moon-base. Using a special computer circuit Yugande assumes a new powerful red form and attacks the moon base. Dr. Kubota and his INET team are forced to flee in the Galaxy Mega and regroup with the Megarangers on Earth. Meanwhile, Hayakawa remains at the moon-base and salvages Voyager Machines buried in the rubble. The Megarangers kill Yugande and then Dr. Hinelar turns into a monster and the Grand Nejiros base transforms into the Death Nejiros. Hayakawa completes his salvage efforts, allowing the Megarangers to use the Mega Voyager now that is the only giant robot they have that is still operational. Hinelar sets the Death Nejiros to self-destruct in an effort to destroy Mega Voyager. Megarangers risk their lives to prevent damage to the city below by carrying Death Nejiros far away into the sky. The Megarangers survive and celebrate their High School graduation with Dr. Kubota and Hayakawa.
