PLOT


170,000,000 years ago, five ancient human kingdoms, with the protection of the Shōgozyu, coexisted peacefully with the dinosaurs. This ended when an evil witch named Bandora started a war on the dinosaurs because of the death of her son Kai. Bandora decided that the only way her son Kai's death could be avenged was if she sold her sould to Dai satan, an evil almost ice head creature who had immense power and who in the later series could be summoned to help Bandora. In the end, five kingdoms were ruined and the dinosaurs became extinct. The Shōgozyu sealed Bandora and her minions on the planet Nemesis before going into hibernation. In 1992, Nemesis returned to near Earth's orbit. Two Japan ese astronauts exploring the planet accidentally released her and her minions from their prison. With Bandora free, her enemy, the wizard Barza retreated to his underground lair 2,000 metres below the apartment building where he worked as a front. There, he revived the five warriors he had been guarding, who had been in suspended animation to be awakened when they were needed. These five were each a member of the ancient human tribes, who co-existed with the dinosaurs. With the aid of the Shōugozyu, the ZyuRangers fought Bandora and her Dora Monsters.


ZyuRangers

The ZyuRangers were the five greatest warriors of the ancient kingdoms. They went into suspended animation to be ready in the event Bandora escapes her prison.

  • Geki (ゲキ)/TyrannoRanger: He was a prince of ancient mankind's Yamato kingdom, symbolized by the Tyrannosaurus . He was called the Seigi no Senshi (正義の戦士 "Warrior of Justice"). After the death of Burai, the '''Dragon Armor''' is succeeded to TyrannoRanger. When TyrannoRanger wears the Dragon Armor, he is called '''Armed Tyranno''', and can generate his power three to five times higher than usual.

  • Goushi (ゴウシ)/MammothRanger: He was a knight of the Sharma tribe, symbolized by the Mammoth . He was the serious member and was called the Chie no Senshi (智慧の戦士 "Warrior of Wisdom"). He had an older sister named Otome, whose death by Bandora made him vow to avenge her.

  • --- Legendary Weapon: Mothbreaker.

  • --- Attacks: Power Crush, Mothbreaker Change Attack


  • Dan (ダン)/TriceraRanger: He was a knight of the Etof tribe, symolized by the Triceratops . He was a flirt and was called the Yūki no Senshi (勇気の戦士 "Warrior of Courage").

  • --- Legendary Weapon: Triceralance.

  • --- Attacks: Jump Attack, Triceralance Typhoon


  • Boi (ボーイ)/TigerRanger: He was the youngest of the team and a Knight of the Daim tribe, symbolized by the Smilodon . He was called the Kibō no Senshi (希望の戦士 "Warrior of Hope").

  • --- Legendary Weapons: Saber Daggers

  • --- Attacks: Pinpoint Thrust, Saber Daggers Lightning Shoot

  • --- Legendary Weapon: Ptera Arrow

  • --- Attacks: Turn Off Attack, Rolling Arrows


  • Burai (ブライ)/DragonRanger: Another warrior who was in suspended animation in a cave outside of town. He was resurrected by Gnome's' grandson and attacked the ZyuRangers. Geki soon learned that Burai was his older brother, the son of the Black Knight. Their father, the Black Knight, was a prideful man who showed utter disrespect to his monarch, Yamato King. The childless King, rather than executing him, penalized the Knight with his younger son, Geki, adopting the boy as his heir. Black Knight was unable to come to terms with this loss and led a rebellion to take back Geki only to be killed in a duel by the Yamato King. Burai, witnessing his father's death, swore revenge by stealing the Yamato kingdom's Dragon Armor treasure and vowed to kill his younger brother. Burai eventually made peace with Geki and joined the team, helping every once and awhile. It turned out that Burai's life was limited; his sleep chamber had caved in and crushed him, but the gods had brought him back to life because his Dragon Caesar would be needed by Zyuranger. When he eventually died, he gave Geki his Zyusouken (to summon Dragon Caesar) and the Dragon Armor. He was called the Chikara no Senshi (力の戦士 "Warrior of Power").

  • --- Legendary Weapon: Zyusouken (Beast Play Sword). The Zyusouken can be used by Burai to command and control Dragon Caesar.



Arsenal

  • Dinobuckler: Each Ranger wears a Dinobuckler which is a detachable golden buckle placed on each ZyuRanger's waistband. The Dinobuckler is two-sided: the folded grip-side is out before the ZyuRangers transformation, and the side showing the golden medallion on which the figure of his/her own Shōgozyu is carved after. Before the transformation, the Dinobuckler can be used in battle as a knuckle cover. The golden medallion is the vital source of ZyuRangers power; it stores '''Gaiatron''' energy, a mysterious and perpetual power-source derived from mother nature. With its internal energy, the medallion also has the power to heal a wounded person. While inside their Shōgozyu, the ZyuRangers can turn their medallions into '''Dynocrystals''' which help in the tranformation process of Daizyujin and Gouryuujin.


  • Ranger Slinger: Each Slinger can be combined with the Ranger Gun to form a mightier blaster called Ranger Slinger. When the ZyuRangers shoot their Ranger Slinger simultaneously to the target, the combined attack is the ''Ranger Slinger Final Shot'', which brings critical damage to enemies, even to giant-sized Dora Monsters.

  • ---Ranger Stick/Gun/Sword: Other than being used individually, the Ranger Sticks are used together in the '''Babel Attack'''. The five ZyuRangers form a tower, bring the tips of each Ranger Stick toward the center, and then shoot the combined, powerful shock-wave.


  • --RangerStick: Emits shock waves from the tip to electrify enemies.


  • --RangerGun: Fires strong Gaiatron lasers.


  • --RangerSword: Powered with the super-frequency energy of Gaiatron.

  • ---Thunder Slinger: Obtained in #29, the Thunder Slinger, is a slinger-shaped blaster, and is a common weapon for the Rangers. By pulling and releasing the energy shaft in the back of Thunder Slinger, the ZyuRangers can shoot the energy arrows from the upper muzzle and smash enemies. They can also shoot paralysing beams from two lower muzzles.


  • Howling Cannon: When the five '''Legendary Weapons''' are combined, the Howling Cannon, a powerful bazooka which can easily demolish a multi-storied building, is formed. The Howling Cannon is often used to bring critical damage to normal-sized Dora Monsters.



Vehicles

The ZyuRangers own three special motorcycles called Zaurer Machines. The Zaurer Machines are,
  • Roadzaurer 1: motorcycle for Geki/TyrannoRanger. It is equipped with a powerful machinegun in front, and can run up to 320km/h.

  • Sidezaurer 2: motorcycle for Goushi/MammothRanger, with a sidecar for Boi/TigerRanger. It is equipped with two mini-cannon in front, and can run up to 280km/h.

  • Sidezaurer 3: motorcycle for Dan/TriceraRanger, with a sidecar for Mei/PteraRanger. It is equipped with two mighty machineguns in front, and can run up to 300km/h.



Allies

  • Barza (バーザ ''- Baaza''): He was the immortal wizard who looked after the ZyuRangers during their long sleep. He worked as an apartment manager in the building above their resting place. He was known as the Priest of Snow.


  • Gnome: He was an old friend of Barza, and the holder of Burai's key. He hoped that Burai would simply die inside the cave so that he would not be unleashed upon the world.


  • Ryota: Gnome's grandchild. 170 million years ago, Burai saved him from a rock that threatened to crush him. In the present day, he took Gnome's key, and unsealed Burai, against his grandfather's wishes.


  • Klotho (クロト ''- Kuroto''): the goddess of fate. When the ZyuRangers went into suspended animation, Burai followed them in his own chamber. However, the ZyuRangers had Barza to look after them while Burai had no one. This proved tragic as an earthquake caused the cave where Burai was sleeping to collapse, crushing the helpless Burai to death. Daizyujin asked Klotho to restore Burai's life, because the ZyuRangers would need his Dragon Caesar. However, his life force was limited. Soon after Burai was revived, and after he betrayed Bandora, Klotho took him to the Lapseless Room and gave him the Zyusouken. Klotho told him he had about 30 hours left, and left him with a green candle that would represent his remaining life force. The Lapseless Room is a chamber were time stood still, and every time Burai went out to aid his brother a portion of the candle would melt away.



SHōGOZYU (''GUARDIAN BEAST'')

The Avatars of the Dinosaur Gods, who were all original one entity. Even though the Shōgozyus are shaped as such, they are not robots. They are the agents of the ancient gods which the ZyuRangers and their tribes worship. Therefore, each Shōgozyu has its own will and possesses a mysterious power which even ZyuRangers cannot fathom.

  • Kyuukyouku Daizyujin (''Ultimate Great Beast God''): When Zyutei Daizyujin and King Tankor are combined, the colossal Kyuukyoku Daizyujin is formed. Although Kyuukyoku Daizyujin was the last to be introduced, it is the original form of the ancient god, and the mightiest form in all Shōgozyu combinations. Final attack: ''Grand Banisher'', a massive barrage of energy. It has immense power, enough to defeat Dai Satan in the finale.

  • --- Zyutei Daizyujin (''Emperor Great Beast God''): Daizyujin and Dragon Caesar can combine to form Zyutei Daizyujin. Zyutei Daizyujin attacks enemies with a blast of mighty beams called the ''Kaizer Burst''. Final Attack: ''Empire Attack'', a massive ball of energy blazen with a "Z" on it.


  • -- Daizyujin (大獣人 ''Great Beast God''): The combined form of the five Shōgozyu. Daizyujin has his own will as an agent of the Gods, and sometimes gives challenges or suggests the right directions for ZyuRangers to help their quest to be real heroes. He wields the ''Mammoth Shield'' and the ''Dinosaur Sword Godhorn'', which he uses in his ''Super Legendary Lightning Cut'' attack. Daizyujin can flexibly change into the '''Dinotankor''', which attacks enemies with its two powerful cannons the ''Zyusensha Cannons'', or with laser blasts from the eyes of each Shōgozyu called the ''Zyusensha Storm''.



  • - Tyrannosaurus: Bigger and mightier than the other primary Shōgozyus, it has finished several giant Dora Monsters with its ''Tyranno Sonic'' shockwave.



  • - Zyumammoth: It can blow glacial gas called ''Moth Blizzard'' of -200°C from the trunk to freeze enemies.



  • - Triceratops: Its two horns can be shot to capture the enemies with chains. It is also equipped with two ''Tricera Cannons'' on its back.



  • - Sabertiger: Its running speed excels that of all the other Shōgozyus. It also has two mighty laser gun called the ''Saber Gun'' on its tail.



  • - Pteranodon: It is the only Shōgozyu with flying ability, and its flying speed can go as high as Mach 2.5. It emits ''Ptera Beams'' from its wings.


  • -- Dragon Caesar (ドラゴンジーザー): Its superb combat ability matches that of Tyrannosaurus. It has a strong drill on its tail, and its ''Dragon Hurley'', a blast of missiles launched from the fingertips, is powerful enough to smash giant Dora Monsters. Dragon Caesar is shown emitting a pentagon-shaped force field from the lights on his chest in design sketches, but never did so in the show. He can combine wih Zyumammoth, Triceratops, and Sabertiger to form Gouryuujin.



  • - Gouryuujin (''Strong Dragon God''): The combined form of Dragon Caesar with Zyumammoth, Triceratops, and Sabertiger, who uses the ''Strong Dragon's Lance Dragon Antler'' for his ''Super Blast Dragon Thrust'' attack.


  • -- King Brachion (キングブラキオン): The seventh Shōgozyu, which resembles a Brachiosaurus. King Brachion is no one's Shōgozyu. It's called the Zyukishin (''Creature Knight God''), and has its own will just as the other Shōgozyus. When its two ''Tail Cannons'' are slid forward, it forms the '''King Tankor'''.



OTHERS


  • Jin (ジン)/Dora Jin (ドーラジン) (11): A genie who has the power to grant wishes. Bandora stole the lamp and turned Jin into a DoraMonster, shattering the lamp in the process. After his lamp was restored, Jin returned to normal. He was sealed away to prevent any further use for evil.



  • DonDon (ドンドン) (14): An elf who was applying for a job as Puripurikan’s assistant, but was kicked out by Bandora. DonDon met a kindred spirit in Toshio, a boy who also got frequently picked on. They become friends and go around sucking things into Dondon’s magic bottles--including planes and buildings with people inside. After seeing Dondon trapping Boi and Dan in his bottle, Bandora decided to recruit DonDon, promising to both him and Toshio the power to get back at all the people who push them around. It took Toshio’s mother convince him & DonDon that there are people who care about them. After he and Toshio return everything to normal, DonDon goes on his way, but not before giving Toshio a black toy replica of Daizyujin.



  • Goda (ゴダ) (39): A underground monster who was powerful, but had a gentle heart. Goda rarely lays eggs, so he was extremely protective of his line. He lost it when two of his eggs were devoured by Bandora's gang, who then gave the blame to the ZyuRangers. After Goda ran off, Bandora toyed with Goda's emotions by saying she'll restore his eggs if he destroys the ZyuRangers for her. He agreed, being filled with a hatred of humans as he enlarges. Despite their plea, Goda was too hate-filled and had to be killed, with the help of Gouryuujin. But the last egg would hatch eventually, with a new Goda to be born.



VILLAINS

  • Dai Satan (30-31, 48-50): The ultimate evil, a floating blue-skinned head. He used Bandora to try to lay the Earth to waste 170 million years ago and uses her again to finish the job. He even brought Kai back to life to cement the deal. He was finally killed by his arch-nemesis, Kyuukyouku Daizyujin in the finale.



  • Witch Bandora (魔女・バンドーラ - Majo Bandora) : An evil witch who was queen of the Dal (Fairy) Tribe, until her son Kai was inadvertently killed by a dinosaur.

She has seemingly unlimited magical abilities, including enlarging her Dora Monsters. She & her minions are usually located at '''Bandora Palace''', which was on the moon. Loses her powers after shreding a tear over Kai's death and is sealed away by Daizyujin along with all her henchmen. During the last time we see her, she is overwhelmed by the cuteness of Lammy and Griffozer's son and cradles him around. She occasional sings her theme song, ''Dolla! The Song of Witch Bandora''.

  • Dora Talos (47-50): A giant mecha piloted by Kai, Bandora's resurrected son. It has various weapons and could use Kai's telekineses. Daizyujin, Dragon Caesar and Gouryuujin were of no match for this new menace. After being destroyed by Kyuukyouku Daizyujin, Bandora casts a spell that caused the ground to callapse from underneath King Brachion, causing him to sink into the ground. Dai Satan later rebuilt Dora Talos into a more powerful form with extended blades from its arms which it used to severe Daizyujin's left arm and half of Dragon Caesar's tail, living Bandora free to cast a spell that causes the two mecha to disappear. The ZyuRangers later learn from Burai's ghost that Daizyujin, Dragon Caesar and King Brachion are trapped in Bandora's magical world. After the ZyuRangers escaped after smashing globes containing their mecha, they were back at full strength and attacked Dora Talos through several quickly-asceding stages: separate Shōgozyu, Daizyujin, Dragon Caesar, Gouryuujin and finally Kyuukyouku Daizyujin destroying both Dai Satan and Dora Talos forever.
