Villains in Love in Super Sentai and Power Rangers

Mason and Farrah
Bioman
There was an implied relationship between Mason and Farrah. Both were androids. Farrah used to show resentment towards Mason especially in episode 12 when the task was given to him instead of her. However as time passed, the two began to get closer. Mason was disgusted that Monster had a crush on Farrah during the dream operation, fortunately for him Farrah found it repulsive. After being seriously injured in battle while using Balzion, Mason stood pause with Psygorn as Farrah died.


Igamu and Baraba
Maskman
In Maskman, it seems Igamu has secret feelings for Baraba although the two were openly rivals.


Zimba and Jarmin
Turboranger
Zimba was rejected by a princess despite the fact he saved her. When Zimba fought, it was sort of like he frequently approached Jarmin and did everything to impress her as well which is received well. When Zimba was punished, Jarmin pleaded for his release in episode 18 which he later repaid with his life in episode 28 which resulted in his death. Jarmin was deeply saddened and lost all will to live and resulted to her death.


Yamimaru and Kirika
Turboranger
In Turboranger, Yamimaru and Kirika were a couple.


Billion and Doldora
Fiveman
In Fiveman, it seems Billion and Doldora were a couple. Billion was distressed to see Doldora turn into Rose Dolgin.


Grey and Maria
Jetman
In Jetman, Grey was in love with Maria and it's implied that Maria loves Grey. Grey loved Maria enough as he was willing to let her go.


Griffiozer and Lami
Zyuranger
They were in love, she was his bride, he most grunted and would shy away when they would mention it. They ended up having a kid.

Rita and Zedd
MMPR
Ah, Rita and Zedd; an unexpected holy union that pleased fans. What didn't please fans was him turning human in the end of Countdown to Destruction. Rita then ended up being Mystic Mother and their son Thrax went on to fight the Rangers.


King Mondo and Queen Machina / Bacchus-rage and Hysteria
Zeo / Ohranger
Two marrieds replaced by another married couple for Power Rangers. They stayed together, destruction to destruction, repair to repair until they turned to dust. In Ohranger, when Bacchus-rage died, he stayed dead. Hysteria committed suicide to save her grandson.

Prince Gasket and Archerina / Kaiser Buldont and Princess Multiwa
Zeo / Ohranger
In Ohranger, it was pretty strange as Princess Multiwa was Hysteria's niece, hence Buldont's cousin. Dunno how that is possible if they are robots but them having a baby probably makes things hilarious. Prince Gasket just came into the scene with his wife Archerina and then disappeared, with no baby. Archerina was the daughter of a rival of Mondo's.


Yabaiba and Tsuetsue / Jindrax and Toxica
Gaoranger / Wild Force
The duos were an item always went together during missions when they are commanded by the respective highness to fight. Out of love, Yaba-iba/Jindrax decided to "assist" the Gaorangers/Wild Force Rangers which he tricked them into using their finishing move to get that energy needed to fish his love out from Hell. Both counterparts were the same.


LeeLee and Phineas
Mystic Force
The Troblin found someone in the annoying vampire spawn LeeLee. It wasn't an instant attraction but when they went with Clare to save Udonna, their relationship started out. Well, Phineas is not exactly a villain, neither is LeeLee but I thought I'd squeezed them in here.

Necrolai (Niki) and Toby
Mystic Force
Necrolai became Niki when she saved two heroes, she dated Toby and they moved into a condo.


Rio and Mele
Gekiranger
Mele loved Rio unconditionally, Rio never admitted it... until maybe it was too late. Mentioned again in my Heroes post.

Jarrod and Camille
Jungle Fury
Because of the footage, they had to squeeze in love between Camille and Jarrod. Somehow, Camille had to fall in love with Jarrod and not Dai Shi. It was confusing, but somehow her humanity was peaking through.

In Gaoranger both Yaba-iba and Tsuetsue perished in their headquarters. On the other hand in Wild Force, Jindrax and Toxica were able to move on with their lives.
