Hyakujuu Sentai GaoRanger (百獣戦隊ガオレンジャー Hyakujū Sentai Gaorenjā), translated as 100 Beast Squadron GaoRanger (gao is Japanese onomatopoeia equivalent to a roaring sound, yet the Gaoranger roll call uses the kanji 牙吠, which mean "fang" and "howl", respectively), was TOEI Company Limited's 25th production of the Super Sentai television series. Its footage was used in Power Rangers: Wild Force.

Plot

The series follows the adventure of five people chosen by the Power Animals to become the Gaorangers to defeat the sinister Org Tribe, led by the Grand Dukes, in a war that started & paused from 1000 years ago.

Characters

Gaorangers

"Where there is life, there is a roar of justice! All-Animal Squadron Gaoranger!"

The Gaoranger during the series and some of the movies refer to each other by color rather than name. Hurricanger Vs. Gaoranger is the only production where the Gaoranger refer to each other by name. Colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, Black, White, Silver.

  • Kakeru Shishi (獅子走 Shishi Kakeru)/GaoRed (ガオレッド): Nickname, "Blazing Lion" (灼熱の獅子 Shakunetsu no Shishi). He was chosen by GaoLion to become leader of the Gaorangers. Before Kakeru became a Gaoranger, he was a veterinarian, and loved animals, especially his golden retriever Choco. Kakeru had the empathic ability to reach out to animals, he understands them. He thought he could do the same with Orgs, but discovered he couldn't since they were without souls. He is in charge of forming the upper body in the Gaoranger mecha formations. After the final battle, he returned to his formal animal hospital.
  • Gaku Washio (鷲尾岳 Washio Gaku)/GaoYellow (ガオイエロー): Nickname, "Noble Eagle" (孤高の荒鷲 Kokou no Arawashi). At first, Gaku was very humorless, he was upset that Kakeru has been chosen leader, and not him. As time went on, Gaku opened up to everyone, and became especially close to Kakeru, often teasing him good naturedly. Gaku is the one who insists that the Gaoranger refer to each other by color and not use their personal names as a nod to his military training as a pilot. He is in charge of forming any leftover parts for the Gaoranger mecha formations. After the final battle, he became a pilot once again.
  • Kai Samezu (鮫津海 Samezu Kai)/Gao Blue (ガオブルー): Nickname, "Surging Shark" (怒涛の鮫 Dotou no Same). An energentic, and suspiciously playful guy. He doesn't like being called him a kid. He is also an accomplished bowler. His motto is "Never Give Up!" which he taught to GaoBlack. He is in charge of forming the right arm for the Gaoranger mecha formations. After the final battle, he became a clerk in a surf shop.
  • Soutarou Ushigome (牛込草太郎 Ushigome Sōtarō)/GaoBlack (ガオブラック): Nickname, "Iron Bison" (鋼の猛牛 Hagane no Mougyuu). A gentle soul who came a Gaoranger before Kakeru joined the team. A knee injury caused him to retire from his sumo career. He is in charge of forming the Lower Body for the Gaoranger mecha formations. After the final battle, he worked on a ranch with Shi-chan, the girl he used to work with at a flower shop.
  • Sae Taiga (大河冴 Taiga Sae)/GaoWhite (ガオホワイト): Nickname, "Belle Tiger" (麗しの白虎 Urawashi no Byakko). She is an incredibly level-headed young woman. Her father runs a dojo and taught her various combat techniques. She is in charge of forming the Left Arm for the Gaoranger Mecha Formations. After the final battle, she continued her martial arts training. Ironically, she had never changed her clothing in the blink of an eye (a skill shared by all Super Sentai heroines) until she met up with Miku Imamura/MegaPink.
  • Shirogane/GaoSilver (ガオシルバー): Nickname, "Sparking Silver Wolf" (閃烈の銀狼 Senretsu no Ginrou). 1,000 years ago, Gao God was defeated by the particularly dangerous Grand Duke Hyakumaru, a fusion of 100 Orgs. In desperation, Shirogane donned the cursed mask of Loki, which gave him the extra power they'd need to defeat the mighty Org. He got three magical Power Animals (Wolf, Alligator and Hammerhead Shark) and combine them with his own companion. Despite frantic warning from their priestess, Murasaki, that the mask would possess him, he did it. He lasted long enough to defeat the Org. Then the mask transformed him into Loki. He begged his former companions to stop him while he still had a vestige of control. He was released by Ura centires later to destroy the present day Gaorangers of present-time. But once freed of the mask, he became GaoSilver & helped in any way he could. He also adopted a modern name for himself, Tsukumaro Ogami (大神月麿 Ōgami Tsukumaro). After the final battle, he traveled across the nation. He was the only Gaoranger who was not present in Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai as the movie was set before he was introduced.

  • Tetomu: The Shrine maiden of the Animairum who serves as mentor to the current Gaoranger team, succeeding the role from her great-grandmother, Murasaki.
  • Futaro: A mysterious boy that the Gaorangers befriend. Later he is revealed to be the human form of the reborn GaoGod. It turned that as GaoRed & GaoSilver were fighting Ura, the other four were resurrected when awakening GaoFalcon. But the four unknownably resurrected GaoGod as well. However at one point he took the Power Animals (Except for GaoSilver's) away from the Gaorangers, deeming that humanity does not deserve their help because humans are wasteful creatures and only pollute the earth. But later he had a change of heart and returned the Power Animals and then left. He later showed up in the finale to help against the revived Grand Duke Orgs.
  • Murasaki: Tetomu's great-grandmother who served as the mentor to the original Gaoranger team.

    • Miku Imamura/MegaPink (From Denji Sentai Megaranger): Miku met up with Sae, and lectured on the Super Sentai franchise's other female warriors and their shared mastery of disguise and habit of changing their clothing in the blink of an eye, something that Sae had never done before.
    • Yuusuke Amamiya/Red Falcon (From Choujuu Sentai Liveman): After fighting Yabaiba and some Orgettes after Yabaiba set his foot on one of four graves that Yuusuke was visiting (all four people underneath these grave were murdered in the mid- to late-1980s), Yuusuke himself met up with and briefly dueled Gaku and lectured on the Super Sentai franchise's other swordspersons.
  • Red Warriors: The Red Warriors of old from the 24 Sentai teams that came before the GaoRangers.

Arsenal

  • G-Phone: Henshin device of the five main Gaoranger. Transforms into an animal and then human mode when the Gaoranger activate the change function. Also can be used like a regular Cell phone and is used by the Gaoranger to communicate with each other. Each Gaoranger has a different identification number; 1. GaoWhite, 2. GaoBlack, 3. GaoBlue, 4. GaoYellow, and 5. GaoRed.
  • Jewels of Gao: Round gems that, when inserted into the hilt of a JuuOuKen, enable the Gaorangers to summon Power Animals from Animalium.

The Laser Pool can also be used for GaoSilver to summon his Power Animals.
  • Wolf Roader: A wolf themed Motorcycle that is used by GaoSilver.
  • Falcon Summoner: A bow weapon that is used by GaoRed, that was received in Episode 31.

It has two modes, a gun mode when the bow ends are closed, and an arrow mode when the ends are opened. The arrow mode can shoot a falcon shaped arrow. This weapon can summon GaoFalcon by connecting Red's JuuOuKen (which is equipped with the GaoFalcon Orb) to the Falcon Summoner when it is in arrow mode. Once in Episode 35 the Jewels of Gao for the other Power Animals that form GaoIcarus where placed into the empty slots in the Falcon Summoner.

  • GaoRanger Storm: A ball of light created by the Gaorangers, the Dream Sentai, and the Red Warriors. GaoRed kicked it to annihilate Rakshasa once and for all.

Power Animals

Each of the Gaorangers possess a Totem Power Animal to whom their powers are based. They also possess additional Power Animals as well. They are fully sentient physical manifestations of the planet's life energy and look metallic in their appearance due to the absorption of metals during their creation from the elements of the Earth. Each Power Animal possess an orb it entrusts the Gaoranger it bounded with. The central five Power Animals are younger than most of the others. Although there are numerous Power Animal Combinations, what is listed here in this section is the combinations that appeared in the show, the movies, and a few other sources. A list of all 100 Power Animals and design sketches for combinations which didn't appear in the show was included as part of an art book showing renderings of all sentai mecha up through Hurricanger. All 100 Power Animals appear in the last episode, but all of those that weren't seen before appear only as colorful spheres.

  • GaoKing Sword and Shield: Combination of GaoKing and GaoElephant, where it can provide some protection and stike the Org with an energised Sword Attack.
    • GaoKing: Combination of the Five main Gaoranger's Totem Power Animals. It's Finisher Attack is called Animal Heart which is an energy blast fired from the mouths of the component Power Animals. It becomes Super Animal Heart when they acquire the Soul Bird.
      • GaoLion: GaoRed's Totem Power Animal. Becomes GaoKing's Upper Torso or GaoKentaurus's Lower Torso and Feet.
      • GaoEagle: GaoYellow's Totem Power Animal. It can transform into GaoKing's head or become a waist for the GaoMuscle/GaoKnight Formations.
      • GaoShark: GaoBlue's Totem Power Animal. Becomes a Right Arm Part. Its formation special attack is Shark Shot which can be used alongside GaoTiger's attack and it can also use its dorsal fin as a small knife-like weapon called Fin Blade.
      • GaoBison: GaoBlack's Totem Power Animal. Becomes GaoKing's, GaoMuscle's, and GaoKnight's Lower Torso and Feet. It's formation special attack is called Bison Kick where it can kick an Org.
      • Gao Tiger: GaoWhite's Totem Power Animal. Becomes a Left Arm Part. It's formation special attack is called Tiger Burn, a punch attack that can be used alongside GaoShark's attack.
    • GaoElephant: One of GaoWhite's additional Power Animals, its orb was found with a scroll in a temple. GaoElephant rested within a cave until it was awoken. GaoElephant can transform into a sword and shield weapon that can only be wielded by GaoShark and GaoTiger.
  • GaoMuscle: Combination of GaoGorilla, GaoBear, & Gao Polar with usually GaoBison & GaoEagle. But it can also combine with GaoRhino & GaoArmadillo to form GaoMuscle Striker. GaoMuscle also wields an anchor & chain, called Muscle Anchor, which it can use to knock its target out. It's finishing move is called Bear Punches where GaoBear and GaoPolar can strike the Org with Energized Punches. While GaoMuscle Stiker's finishing move is Rhino Shoot.
    • GaoGorilla: One of GaoRed's additional Power Animals. Becomes GaoMuscles Upper Torso and Head. Awakened by a woman the Gaorangers befriend when they unknowably travel back in time during their journey to find a mushroom that will heal GaoLion after GaoKing is forced apart when the GaoBear and GaoPolar don't accept him.
    • GaoBear & GaoPolar: GaoYellow's additional Power animals who originally appeared as mysterious twin boys in black and white outfits. Two Bear twins, GaoBear uses the power of fire and GaoPolar uses the power of ice. GaoBear transforms into a left arm part and GaoPolar transforms into a right arm part. Combine with either GaoKing or GaoHunter & add the word Double Knuckle to that formation's name. If only one of them joins a formation, add Knuckle to said combination. Their speciality move Bear Strike is where they can bombard the Org with beams of Fire and Ice. They didn't initially accept GaoLion.
  • Soul Bird: A special creature that can increase the power of the Gaoranger's Power Animal combinations (Except for GaoHunter). Originally the mushroom that is supposed to heal GaoLion transformed into an egg which hatched into a small bird named Pyon. In episode 14, Pyon evolved into the Soul Bird in order to help the Gaorangers defeat Shuten. Since then the Soul Bird has been used with every one of the Gaorangers formations. When used with GaoKing it can allow it to use Super Animal Heart an enhanced version of Animal Heart. This is where the blast attack is not only shot from GaoLion's mouth, but also from GaoSharks, GaoTigers, and GaoBisons mouths as well. But in order for it to work all four of the mentioned Power Animals must be in good condition. In the GaoRanger Vs. Super Sentai Movie, Super Animal Heart was enhanced by the power from the Mecha Formations of the previous Sentai (The First Mecha Formation for the Sentai that had more than one formation are only seen) during the battle against Rakushaasa. Once when Vase Org transported GaoKing and GaoHunter into another Dimension a part of the Soul Bird split from it and became Yon an evil version of Pyon. But thanks to Tetomu who convinced it, Yon becomes the Soul Bird and GaoMuscle Striker is formed for the first time. Afterwards the two Soul Birds became one again. In the official Toy lines it can become a Left Arm Part as well.
  • GaoHunter: Combination of GaoSilver's Power Animals. It's Weapons are Moon Bommerang and Ligator Blade. It's finishing moves are Beast Hurricane, a blast attack from GaoAlligator's mouth, similar to GaoKing's Animal Heart and Revolver Phantom where it dashes into its opponent with a spinning Ligator Blade. At one time it was cursed while it was under the control of Loki. But after the curse was broken the Org horn on its head dissolved and it regained its true face so GaoSilver decided to rename it to GaoHunter Justice. After GaoGod took away the other Gaorangers Power Animals, GaoHunter had a tough time against Tinplate Org. But with the energy that the other Gaorangers drew in from their Totem Power Animals, GaoHunter was temporarily powered up into GaoHunter Blue Moon and with GaoGod's help Tinplate Org was defeated.
    • GaoWolf: GaoSilver's Totem Power Animal. Can act as a Left Arm part. Can also act as a Left Arm Part to another mecha adding the name Another Arm when the GaoHunter Formation is not possible.
    • GaoHammerhead: One of GaoSilver's additional Power Animals. Acts as a Right Arm part. Like GaoWolf it can also combine with another mecha if the GaoHunter Formation is not possible.
    • GaoAlligator: One of GaoSilver's additional Power Animals. It becomes GaoHunters main body and feet. Its Tail becames the Ligator Blade weapon for GaoHunter.
  • GaoGod: The God of all Power Animals. It's attacks are Tenchi Power Arrow (Where GaoGod shoots its sword like an arrow) and Haramariken sword slash (An energized sword slash). It was used by the ancient Gaorangers and was made from older versions of the current main Gaoranger's Totem Power Animals: GaoLeon (Forms the Upper Torso), GaoBuffalo (Forms the Lower Torso and Feet) GaoSawShark (Forms the Right Arm and its nose is used as GaoGods weapon), GaoCondor (Forms the head) and GaoJaguar (Forms the Left Arm). He was killed 1,000 years ago by the Grand Duke Hyakumaru, which forced Shirogane to become don Loki's mask. Later on he appeared in spirit form to help the Gaorangers restore Shirogane to normal, including temporarily blocking the full moon that caused Loki to temporarily revert back to Shirogane. He was later revived as the human boy Futaro. In the Gaoranger Movie, GaoSilver piloted GaoGod during battle.
  • GaoKnight: This and GaoKong are exclusive only to the Gaoranger Movie. It is combination of GaoKong, GaoEagle, GaoShark, GaoTiger, GaoBison, and GaoElephant.
    • GaoKong: red version of GaoGorilla.
  • GaoIcarus: Combination of GaoFalcon, GaoGiraffe, GaoDeer, GaoRhino, and GaoArmadillo. Using GaoFalcon's Wings it can fly into the sky or act as a shield from Org attacks—the latter of which is essentially a mimicry of the Wing Gundam Zero Custom from Gundam Wing. Some of its exclusive techniques are Icarus Bind where the eyes on GaoFalcons Wings can bind an Org in place and its finishing move is Icarus Dynamite which is an enhanced version of Rhino Shoot that is performed as a flip kick from midair. Once when all the other Power Animals that make up GaoIcarus except for GaoFalcon were badly damaged from Steam Engine Org, GaoFalcon fused with GaoWolf, GaoHammerhead, and GaoBison to create GaoIcarus Another Foot and Arm. Although for some reason GaoIcarus Another Foot and Arm could use GaoHunters Ligator Blade even though GaoAlligator was not part of the combination.
    • GaoFalcon: One of GaoRed's additional Power Animals. Becomes GaoIcarus/GaoKentaurus's Upper Torso and Head. After the Grand Duke Ura killed all the Gaorangers except for GaoRed and GaoSilver, the other Gaorangers in the afterlife were able to put a puzzle together that not only awakened GaoFalcon's power but it also returned them to life.
    • GaoGiraffe: GaoBlue's Additional Power Animal. It was originally in the form of a crane and sent dreams to GaoBlue where GaoKing was no match for Boat Org. During the GaoKing battle Tetomu realizes that a Power Animal was calling to him. So GaoBlue calls out to the Power Animal and the crane GaoBlue used earlier during their fight against Boat Org revealed its true form as GaoGiraffe. Can transform into a right arm part where it becomes a Spear, It adds the word Spear to that mecha's name when used with the GaoKing, GaoHunter, or GaoMuscle Striker formations.
    • GaoRhino & GaoArmadillo: GaoBlack's Additonal Power Animals. They were summoned by GaoBison to help against Loki after it was badly damaged from Lawnmower Org. GaoArmadillo originally appeared in a miniaturized form when it gave their orbs to Gao Black. Its special move Rhino Shoot is where GaoRhino kicks GaoArmadillo at its opponent like a soccer ball. Other than being used as the Lower Torso and Feet for Gao Icarus it can also replace GaoBison in the GaoKing formation or GaoBison and GaoEagle in the GaoMuscle Formation adding the word Striker to either of those mecha's names. GaoArmadillo was once used by GaoKing Another Arm as a Bowling Ball in order to counter Bowling Org's Bowling Ball.
    • GaoDeer: One of GaoWhite's Additional Power Animals. Has healing Powers and transforms into a left arm part where its antlers are a weapon. When used with GaoKing and GaoMuscle Striker it adds the word Cross Horn to that mecha's name. At one time in the past Shirogane and Murasaki used to play music for it. But after Murasaki's throat was injured from some Orgettes, when Shirogane failed to protect her, it became angry at him and left. With some help from Tetomu, Shirogane was able to help it forgive him and it gave Shirogane its Gao Orb. Afterwards Shirogane gave it to GaoWhite. During its first battle against Gravestone Org it used Bubble Capture to remove the Power of 1,000 years ago (Loki's energy) and sent it into the sky, until it was released by the Org in the following episode. It can also use its Antler Rings to bind an Org. Once against Flute Org, while in the GaoIcarus formation, GaoDeer used a move called Horn Crush where it binded and killed Flute Org with its antlers by crushing it to death.
  • GaoCentaurus: Combination of GaoFalcon, GaoShark, GaoTiger, GaoElephant, and a giant GaoLion. When ToruToru trapped the Gaorangers in Hell where the spirits of the previous fallen Orgs were, they were cut off from their Power Animals when ToruToru became giant. At that time Tetomu was Rasetsu's prisoner who wanted her to cook for him. But Tetomu was then rescued by the Power Animals. Remembering how the Gaoranger loved her cooking she casts a spell on a piece of food and sends it into GaoLion's mouth causing it to grow several kilometers. GaoCentaurus then saved the GaoRangers from ToruToru. GaoCentaurus was also used to finish off Rasetsu in the following battle.
  • Gao Panda: Exclusive only to the Gao Access CD.
  • GaoCracker: It is where GaoShark and GaoTiger could replace GaoBear and GaoPolar in the GaoMuscle Formation that would create GaoCracker. Although there was an official picture, it never appeared on the show.

Org Tribe

A race of Oni born from the sadness and madness of humans. They often take the forms of idols deep within an underground cavern known as the Matrix.

  • Org Master: Within the cavern is the Org Master, a stone face worshipped by the Orgs due to its power to create new Orgs. It was soon revealed in the finale that the Org Master was a figurehead, only symbolic of power within the Grand Duke Orgs.
  • Grand Duke Orgs:The Grand Dukes are the rulers of the Orgs, using the Org Master which gives life as a figurehead. One by one, a Grand Duke awakens only to be killed by the Gaorangers.
    • Highness Grand Duke Hyakumaru (23, flasback): This Grand Duke Org is what destoryed GaoGod 1,000 years ago, but he was killed by GaoHunter, powered by Loki's evil energy. As by its name, Hyakumaru was created by many Orgs joining into a single form.
    • Hell's Grand Duke Senki (50-51): In the finale, the three Grand Dukes were resurrected and then merged into Senki, fullfilling the prophecy of the "Last Org Advent". Stronger than his three compoments, he overpowered the Gaorangers, destroyed all the Power Animals, and bringing the Animalium down. He attacked the city, but the Power Animals were all revived and countless others arrived to help. All the Power Animals were able to destroy Senki's physical body, while the six GaoRanger contributed their energy to the Hyakujuuken and used it to destroy Senki's heart so he could not revive himself. The Grand Dukes' combined weapon, which is also Senki's default weapon, is the Shurahyakiken (Carnage-All Demon Blade). This weapon is the Grand Dukes' own version of the Gaoranger's Hyakujuuken, which is a combination of Shuten's axe, Ura's fan, and Rasetsu's knife.
      • Grand Duke Shuten (1-14, 47-49): The first of the Grand Dukes to be awaken, this multi-eyed Org wanted to take over the world. Short-tempered, he wields an axe & can strech his arms. Shuten was killed by Ura, who drained and absorbed all his power after losing in battle against GaoMuscle & GaoKing. Shuten was later resurrected in the series finale to be fused with the others to become Senki.
      • Grand Duke Ura (14-24, 26-31, 47-49): The 2nd Grand Duke to be awaken, with a nose-like face & ear-like projections on his back. Obsessed with collecting beautiful things, he was the one who woke Loki. He used a magic mirror to see things at a distance & carried a fan as his weapon. Through Loki, Ura gained the four Power Animal orbs used them to create Chimera Org. However, the Org is beaten by the newly transformed GaoSilver, who also takes out Ura. Ura's crown is then used by Tsustsue to become the Grand Duke Onihime. But Ura regenerated himself from his crown and captured GaoSilver to have him reabsorb the power of 1000 years' rage (Loki's energy). However after GaoSilver rejected it, Ura was able to absorb it to evolve in a more powerful form, Ultimare Form Ura, which was his actual plan. However, Ura was regressed by GaoIcarus and killed by GaoRangers. Ura was later resurrected in the series finale to be fused with the others to become Senki.
      • Grand Duke Rasetsu (32-44, 47-49): The Final Grand Duke to be awakened, a mass of mouths with both male & female voices. It was ravenous with an unsatisfiable appetite for anything in its reach, wanting to eat & using a knife as his weapon. He treated the Org Dukes like dirt, painfully transferring their powers to certain Orgs. Rasestu died at the hands of the Power Animals, first by using GaoMuscle and GaoHunter Justice to weaken him, and then finishing him off with GaoCentaurus. Rasetsu was later resurrected in the series finale to be fused with the others to become Senki.
    • Hagura Highness Rakushaasa (Gaoranger vs. Super Sentai): A hairy Org whose power was so immense that it damaged his horn and sent him into a coma. He needed the fighting spirit of strong-willed warriors to awaken him and heal his horn. He took the fighting spirit of Gaku, Kai, and Soutarou (and almost Sae). It took the combined force of all previous Sentai to destroy him. Defeated by the Hajahyakujuuken, then again by the mecha of all of the Red Warriors, and finally killed by the GaoRanger Storm. He was the only Grand Duke not to be revived in the series' finale.
  • Duke Orgs
    • Duchess Org Tsuetsue (1-42, 47-Hurricanger vs. Gaoranger): An arrogant Org priestess whose magic is great. She developed an instant hatred of GaoWhite for calling her "Grandma". She uses the seeds fires from her staff to revive/enlarge Orgs. When Ura was seemingly died, she temporarily used his crown to become the Grand Duke Onihime. She and Yabaiba later received super forms from Ura, Tsuetsue became Armored Tsuetsue, which lasted until he was dead for good. Tsuetsue later died when the Duke Org Torutoru tricked her into removing her horn when she was sent to capture Tetomu, and then was used by Rasetsu as a shield from the Rangers. Yabaiba then energized Tsuetsue's severed horn, and used it to bring her back from hell. But she was more insane and driven for their kind's one goal, serving the Grand Dukes. With that, she brings the three Grand Dukes with her, rewarding her loyality with a new staff. She created the Org Heart that fuses the Grand Dukes into Senki. After surviving the cave-in of their base, TsueTsue & Yaibaiba teamed up with the Jakenja in Hurricanger vs. Gaoranger. They were finally defeated by the two teams.
    • Duke Org Yabaiba: A crazed master of knives who claimed himself to GaoYellow's greatest rival (Though the feeling wasn't mutual). When Ura gave Tsuetsue and Yabaiba super forms, Yabaiba became Armored Yabaiba. Yabaiba fell in love with Tsuetsue over the course of the series. Though begun question the intention of their masters', he followed Tsuetsue out of love. After surving the cave-in of their base, Yaibaiba & Tsuetsue teamed up with the Jakenja in Hurricanger vs. Gaoranger. They were finally defeated by the two teams.
    • Duke Org Loki (15-23, 26, 30): An Org who corrupted the Power Animals that form GaoHunter & was imprisoned within a cursed mask. When Shirogane put on an evil wolf mask & became Loki, their spirits became intertwined. Shirogane was freed from the curse when the GaoRanger used GaoKing Striker to force GaoHunter apart. However, it was after Shirogane was freed from the mask's curse that Loki was released from his imprisonment & he attempted to kill Silver for using him and his power. During the battle against Loki, Shirogane was relucant to accept help from the other Gaorangers. But once he opened up, Shirogane managed to defeat Loki. Loki was eventually killed by GaoHunter Justice. But this was all part of Ura's plan to take Loki's energy. Shirogane later briefly became Loki again when the Org forced him to reabsorb Loki's energy, but was able to reject the power, unaware that it was all part of Ura's plan. Also, he welds the Mikazuki Ken (Crescent Moon Sword) which can perform the Crescent Wave and Moonlight Sonic attacks.

Torutoru then used his ninja powers to create shadow-clones of the Gaorangers called the Shade Rangers. An irrate Yabaiba upset Torutro's plans by reflecting one of his blasts back at him, creating a clone that the Gaorangers destroyed. Torutoru returned as a giant, and fought the Rangers in another dimension. However, Torutrotu was destroyed with the formation of GaoKentaurus.
  • Shade Rangers (43): Torutoru used his ninja powers to create shadow-clones of the Gaorangers, whom they could not destroy without killing themselves in the process. After GaoRed used his Falcon Summoner to kill Torutoru, the Shade Rangers died along with him.
