As someone who saw Super Sentai for quite a while, the timer was a really nice touch that made sense for Go-Busters to me especially with the covert ops element of the show. The closest one we had was in an episode or two in Megaranger, which I won't go into detail because I hope Die watches it in the future as I pray that he tolerates the film quality.
Fun fact.
This one I should've said last episode but didn't to give Komiya and Baba more of the spotlight. Hiromu's sister Rika Sakurada is played by Risa Yoshiki who had a guest role in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger back in 2004, so 8 years prior to this show. She later came back to the series in this show and after the show went on to marry Masato Wada who played male lead Nobuo Akagi/Akiba Red in Hikounin Sentai Akibaranger. Wada is part of D-Boys, an acting troupe of Watanabe agency that is also home to many tokusatsu actors since 2005 starting with ex-member Yuichi Nakamura who played Kyosuke in Hibiki and Yuuto/Zeronos in Den-O.
Some buddyroid trivia.The names of buddyroids are a combination of their motif animal and a food (which, for this I'll go with the Asian formatting of Surname first). Also, this is a personal observation, but their surnames seem to be wordplay on Japanese surnames as well. Cheeda seems to resemble Shida, Gorisaki sounds similar to Horisaki, and Usada resembles Utada to me. But here are the motifs:
Cheeda Nick > Cheetah + Niku, as in the Japanese word for meat
Gorisaki Banana > Gorilla + Banana
Usada Lettuce > Usagi, the Japanese word for Rabbit + Lettuce
They are all voiced by known voice actors. Nick was voiced by the late Keiji Fujiwara who is most known for being Hiroshi, Shin-chan's dad, in Crayon Shinchan, the narrator of Sgt. Frog, Maes Hughes in Fullmetal Alchemist to name a few. He was also Tony Stark in the Japanese dub for the MCU movies until his unfortunate passing not too long ago.
Banana was voiced by Tessho Genda, a veteran most known for being Optimus Prime since G1, or Convoy for pre-Michael Bay movie era Japan, as well as Action Mask (Action Bastard in the English dub) of Crayon Shinchan (of course, do check his creds in Wikipedia or AnimeNewsNetwork to learn more.
Lettuce was voiced by Tatsuhisa Suzuki, who most toku fans will know as the Japanese voice of Kit Taylor in Kamen Rider Dragon Knight before this show. He was a rising star around this time and shot up to being a big name after, his other notable works being Ohma Tokito in Kengan Ashura on Netflix and Noctis in Final Fantasy XV. He is also the husband to LiSA, the singer who probably is most known for singing the themes to Sword Art Online, Fate/Zero (the anime penned by Gen Urobuchi aka the dude who wrote Gaim) and freakin' Demon Slayer.
One more. Tohru's actor Naoto Takahashi has also been in a few other toku shows as well. The first one being Gokaiger as a small guest role where he plays the pupil of a legacy ranger who guest stars. After this show he went on to be in another regular supporting cast role in Ultraman Orb, the 50th anniversary show.
