Story

Four thousand years ago in ancient China, a form of Chinese styled-like kenpō martial arts called Jūken (獣拳, Beast-Fist) was developed. It was created by a man named Bruce Ee, who came to Japan and built the hidden village Jūgenkyō (獣源郷, Beast Origin Village). Jūken is a martial art in which one mimics the abilities of animals as well as trying to attain spiritual peace. However, dissent grew among the creator's ten students. Three of them believed that they should use the suffering and hatred harnessed within humans to increase their power, using their power to assume their monstrous forms; the Three Kenma. After Brusa Ee was murdered, the Kenma gathered followers to practice an evil form of the Jūken style known as Rin Jūken Akugata. The other seven students believed that true strength should come from within and engaged their former friends in a great war, ending the fight with a forbidden technique to seal the Kenma powers at the cost of losing their human forms in the process, becoming the Seven Kensei. Followers of the Kensei created the Geki Jūken Beast Arts school: the Jūken of justice whose sport discipline enhances the human body with the self-produced positive Qi called "Geki." It is taught by Grand Master Sha Fu, one of the Seven Kensei, using a sports goods company named SCRTC (スクラッチ, Sukuratchi) as a front. Presently, a fallen student from the Geki Jūken school named Rio turned to the Rin Jūken style. He rebuilds the Rinjū Hall and brings the long-dead Rin Jūken users back to life as kyonshi to collect Rinki, Geki's polar opposite Qi, to resurrect the Three Kenma so that through them, he can become stronger. To fight the new Rinjū Hall, Sha Fu trained two youths: Ran Uzaki and Retsu Fukami. Along with Jyan Kandou, a feral boy raised by tigers in the woods near Jūgenkyō, the Gekiranger team is formed and later joined by two other Geki Jūken users, Gou Fukami, Retsu's brother and master of the Geki Jū Wolf-Ken style, and Ken Hisatsu, a genius master of the Geki Jū Rhinoceros- style, to save the world from the Akugata's ambitions. However, an even greater evil uses the two sides for its plan.

Characters

Main

• Gekirangers: Students and associates of the Geki Jūken Beast Arts martial arts schools. The primary Gekirangers utilize the Geki Changer (ゲキチェンジャー, Geki Chenjā) arm guards, which harness and amplify their Geki, to transform and store their weapons, such as the Geki Bazooka (ゲキバズーカ, Geki Bazūka). After becoming Super Gekirangers, they gain the use of the Super Geki Claw (スーパーゲキクロー, Sūpā Geki Kurō) and jet engine-like vents on their suits that channel their Kageki and enable various feats of speed and aerial maneuverability. Furthermore, the Gekirangers can use their Geki to manifest the auras of their fighting styles' totem animals into physical forms and combine them to form Kenpō Giants (拳法巨人, Kenpō Kyojin).
  • Jan Kandou (漢堂 ジャン, Kandō Jan): A feral child raised by tigers in the forest outside the Beast Origin Village (獣源郷, Jūgenkyō) who narrowly survived an attack by Long, who intended to kill him due to his lineage, and repressed the memories of the incident. As a result of his upbringing, Jan's vocabulary became limited, leading to him incorporating "Jan-ish" phrases such as "niki-niki", "zowa-zowa", and "waki-waki" in his speech. In the present, Master Xia Fu begins training Jyan as the latter embodies the "Unbreakable Body" (アンブレイカブル・ボディ, Anbureikaburu Bodi) aspect of Geki Jūken, which allows him to withstand most forms of pain, but requires assistance in mastering the Heart aspect. Soon after, Jan joins the Gekirangers as Geki Red (ゲキレッド, Geki Reddo) and becomes a practitioner of the Geki Jū Tiger-Ken (激獣タイガー拳, Geki Jū Taigāken) and Geki Jū Shark-Ken styles. While transformed, he wields the Geki Nunchaku (ゲキヌンチャク, Geki Nunchaku) and the Geki Sabers (ゲキセイバー, Geki Seibā). As Super Geki Red (スーパーゲキレッド, Sūpā Geki Reddo), Jyan embodies the "Extremely Unbreakable Body" (過激にアンブレイカブル・ボディ, Kageki ni Anbureikaburu Bodi) aspect of Geki Jūken and utilizes the Geki Jū Gorilla-Ken style. Jan Kandou is portrayed by Hiroki Suzuki (鈴木 裕樹, Suzuki Hiroki) as a young adult and Arashi Fukasawa (深澤 嵐, Fukasawa Arashi) as a child.
  • Ran Uzaki (宇崎 ラン, Uzaki Ran): An employee of SCRTC who comes from a high-class family and initially focuses heavily on her willpower and keeping her heart in the highest place, to the point where she embodies the "Honest Heart" (オネスト・ハート, Onesuto Hāto) aspect of Geki Jūken. However, a combination of these and her inability to attend to small details leaves her technique lacking. In time, she becomes happier and more relaxed and is appointed leader of the Gekirangers. Additionally, she is a practitioner of the Geki Jū Cheetah-Ken (激獣チーター拳, Geki Jū Chītāken) and Geki Jū Elephant-Ken styles. As Geki Yellow (ゲキイエロー, Geki Ierō), she wields the Geki Tonfa (ゲキトンファー, Geki Tonfā) standard-issue weapon in its Long Baton (ロングバトン, Rongu Baton) configuration and the Geki Hammer (ゲキハンマー, Geki Hanmā). As Super Geki Yellow (スーパーゲキイエロー, Sūpā Geki Ierō), she embodies the "Extremely Honest Heart" (過激にオネスト・ハート, Kageki ni Onesuto Hāto) aspect of Geki Jūken and utilizes the Geki Jū Penguin-Ken style. Ran Uzaki is portrayed by Mina Fukui (福井 未菜, Fukui Mina).
  • Retsu Fukami (深見 レツ, Fukami Retsu): An intelligent yet solitary, selfish, and seemingly cold SCRTC employee who holds a grudge against Rio, who he believes killed his brother Gou when he was a child. In pursuit of seeking revenge, Retsu set aside an artistic career to study his brother's fighting style, but believes winning should be like a painting; complete and inspirational. Due to prioritizing his techniques in his training, to the point where he embodies the "Fantastic Technique" (ファンタスティック・テクニック, Fantasutikku Tekunikku) aspect of Geki Jūken, Retsu's attention to beauty costs him stamina, leaving his body at a disadvantage until he defeats Master Bion Biao in an endurance match and obtains Kageki. Additionally, Retsu is a practitioner of the Geki Jū Jaguar-Ken (激獣ジャガー拳, Geki Jū Jagāken) and Geki Jū Bat-Ken styles. As Geki Blue (ゲキブルー, Geki Burū), he wields the Geki Tonfa in its standard dual tonfa configuration and the Geki Fans (ゲキファン, Geki Fan). As Super Geki Blue (スーパーゲキブルー, Sūpā Geki Burū), Retsu embodies the "Extremely Fantastic Technique" (過激にファンタスティック・テクニック, Kageki ni Fantasutikku Tekunikku) aspect of Geki Jūken and utilizes the Geki Jū Gazelle-Ken style. Retsu Fukami is portrayed by Manpei Takagi (高木 万平, Takagi Manpei) as a young adult, Nao Fujisaki (藤崎 直, Fujisaki Nao) as a child, and Sora Kitajima (北島 空, Kitajima Sora) as a baby respectively.
  • Gou Fukami (深見 ゴウ, Fukami Gō): Retsu's overprotective older brother and a student in Jūken alongside Rio and Miki Masaki. Despite this, Gou initially lacks passion for justice and fights only for himself. This resulted in him developing and mastering a dangerous form of Geki called Shigeki (紫激気（しげき）, "Violet Fierce Qi") and reinventing the Geki Jū Wolf-Ken (激獣ウルフ拳, Geki Jū Urufuken) style into his personal Fukami Style (深見流, Fukamiryū). After their parents died, Gou forced Retsu to never practice Jūken before leaving to fight Rio using an imperfect form of a forbidden Geki Waza in an attempt to defeat and seal him. However, Gou was transformed into a feral werewolf and wandered the world for fifteen years until he eventually regains his human form and reluctantly joins the Gekirangers as Geki Violet (ゲキバイオレット, Geki Baioretto). Unlike the primary Gekirangers, Gou embodies the "Iron Will" (アイアン・ウィル, Aian Wiru) aspect of Geki Juken and utilizes the Gong Changer (ゴングチェンジャー, Gongu Chenjā) brace in order to transform due to his Shigeki being incompatible with Geki Changers. Gou Fukami is portrayed by Riki Miura (三浦 力, Miura Riki).
  • Ken Hisatsu (久津 ケン, Hisatsu Ken): A free-spirited martial arts prodigy who trained at the Beast Origin Village and mastered one of the oldest fighting styles in the Beast Arts, the Geki Jū Rhinoceros-Ken (激獣ライノセラス拳, Geki Jū Rainoserasuken), to overcome the pain of losing his mother at a young age. He was originally meant to join Ran Uzaki and Retsu Fukami as their third teammate, but left to travel abroad due to his Geki Changer being broken and his desire to not restrict himself to the Geki Jūken school. Ken eventually returns in the present to aid the Gekirangers in their battle against the Rin Jūken Akugata and Gen Jūken schools as the white-colored Geki Chopper (ゲキチョッパー, Geki Choppā) before returning to work at SCRTC Meisters once the aforementioned battle is over. Unlike the primary Gekirangers, Ken embodies the "Amazing Ability" (アメイジング・アビリティ, Ameijingu Abiriti) aspect of Geki Jūken and utilizes the SaiBlade (サイブレード, Saiburēdo) gauntlet in order to transform. In combat, he can utilize the Geki Hard Diamond (激気研鑽, Geki Kensan) technique, which allows him to channel his Geki over his hand and convert it into a diamond blade, along with Kageki. Additionally, the SaiBlade serves as his primary weapon, can switch between the gun-like SaiBlade Finger (サイブレードフィンガー, Saiburēdo Fingā) mode and the blade-like SaiBlade Cutter (サイブレードカッター, Saiburēdo Kattā) mode, and can combine with the Super Gekirangers' Super Geki Claw to form the Super SaiBlade (スーパーサイブレード, Sūpā Saiburēdo), which either Ken or any one of the Super Gekirangers can use to perform a Kageki/Geki Hard Diamond fusion attack. Ken Hisatsu is portrayed by Sotaro (聡太郎, Sōtarō).
• Rio (理央): The leader of the Rin Jūken Akugata school and a practitioner of the Rinjū Lion-Ken (臨獣ライオン拳, Rin Jū Raionken) style who seeks to gain strength so he can never suffer pain again. He initially joined the Geki Jūken school, trained under Master Xia Fu, and formed a close bond with Gou Fukami, but was dissatisfied with his progress and left to join the Akugata. During this time, he harnessed the power of Rinki to manifest an armored form called Black Lion Rio (黒獅子リオ, Kurojishi Rio). Throughout the series, Rio forms a rivalry with Jyan and cultivates Rinki from his fear, hatred, and jealousy before he is overthrown by Maku and manifests Dorinki from his self-hatred. After receiving more power and killing Maku to regain his position, Rio falls under Long's influence and uses the Gen Jūken school's power to transform into Genjū King Rio (幻獣王リオ, Genjūō Rio), gaining mastery over the Genjū Gryphon-Ken (幻獣グリフォン拳, Gen Jū Gurifonken) style. Eventually, he discovers Long's treachery and joins forces with the Gekirangers to defeat him, sacrificing himself in the process. Rio is portrayed by Hirofumi Araki (荒木 宏文, Araki Hirofumi) as an adult and Shogo Ehara (江原 省吾, Ehara Shōgo) as a child.
• Mere (メレ): A cruel and malevolent practitioner of the Rinjū Chameleon-Ken (臨獣カメレオン拳, Rinjū Kamereonken) style who wields a pair of sais and a tongue-like weapon. Having died during the Geki-Rin Rebellion, Rio used Rinki to revive her as a Rinrinsi and grant her a human form a decade prior to the series due to their similar objectives. As a result, she became highly devoted to him and developed an initially unrequited love for him. She aids Rio in his plans throughout the series, during which she becomes a Vermilion Bird/rooster-themed Genshou with mastery over the Genjū Phoenix-Ken (幻獣フェニックス拳, Genjū Fenikkusuken) style while working with the Gen Jūken school, before discovering Long is manipulating Rio and joins the latter in helping the Gekirangers defeat him, sacrificing herself in the process. Mere is portrayed by Yuka Hirata (平田 裕香, Hirata Yuka).

Years prior, they studied under Brusa Ee alongside the Kensei before their desire to use fear and rage to power themselves combined with Maku's grudge against Ee led to them murdering the latter, breaking off to found the Akugata, and starting the Geki-Rin Rebellion. However, the Kenma were defeated by the Kensei, who sealed their souls in three Kenma Bracelets (拳魔の腕輪, Kenma no Udewa) while their bodies were sealed separately.

His body was sealed in a stone tomb that Master Xia Fu sealed with a Geki barrier hidden on a mountain summit beset by a perpetual storm until Rio revives him in the present to train him. Impressed by Rio's ideals, Kata agrees, though the latter's brutal training methods lead to Mere fearing for Rio's well-being and resurrecting Rageku. Following this, Kata agrees to let her take over Rio's training and leaves for a separate section of Rin Jū Mountain. While taking part in an attack on the Beast Origin Village, Kata withstands most of the Gekirangers' strongest attacks until Jyan Kandou overcomes his illusions. An enraged Kata enlarges and overpowers GekiFire and GekiTohja Wolf, but is killed by SaiDaiOh. Amidst the Gekirangers' final battle with Long, Rio transfers Kata's Rinki to Ran Uzaki to unify the Geki and Rin Jūken styles. Kata is voiced by Rokurō Naya (納谷 六朗, Naya Rokurō).

While taking part in an attack on the Beast Origin Village, Rageku uses her powers to send the Gekirangers, Rio, and Mere back in time to the Edo period before attempting to destroy SaiDain. However, she is nearly killed and driven off by Geki Chopper and murdered by Long.

In response, Maku ended his friendship with Xia Fu and, after meeting Long, founded the Akugata, murdered Ee, and started the Geki-Rin Rebellion with the intention of becoming the strongest being on Earth. However, he was defeated by the Kensei and his body was sealed behind a locked door in the Rin Jū Hall. In the present, despite Kata and Rageku's warnings, Rio breaks the seal on the door and resurrects him. Disgusted by the changes that occurred while he was dead, Maku overthrows Rio, resumes his leadership position, and declares a new Geki-Rin Rebellion. While launching an attack on the Beast Origin Village, Rio's disrespect and his fellow Kenma's criticisms towards him cause the enraged Maku to enlarge before fighting the Gekirangers, who eventually defeat him.

After Rio resurrected her, Bae was resurrected as well and became dependent on her for his survival. Throughout the series, he impulsively serves as a commentator for battles between the Gekirangers' Kenpō Giants and enlarged Beast-Men and serves as an unwanted confidante for Mere before she eventually sees him as an equal.

Because of his immortality and evil nature, he found the world dull and decided to create the "Destroyer", a mindless monster capable of destroying the world. To this end, he manipulated Maku in a failed attempt at turning him into the Destroyer before turning his attention to Rio and attempted to kill the Kandou family for fear that their ability to enhance their Qi would threaten his plans. In the present, Long reveals himself to personally oversee Rio's training until Mere discovers his true intentions and convinces the latter to join her in helping the Gekirangers defeat Long by sealing him in the Dōkokugan (慟哭丸, lit. Wailing Ball), which Jyan Kandou takes possession of to protect it. During the events of the crossover film Engine Sentai Go-onger vs. Gekiranger, Akugata engineer Meka steals the Dōkokugan and converts it into the Dōkokugan Soul (慟哭丸ソウル, Dōkokugan Sōru) in order to empower Nunchaku Banki as part of his plan to rule the world with the dragon's power. After Jyan and Go-on Red defeat Nunchaku Banki, the Dōkokugan's seal is partially undone, allowing Long to emerge and convert Nunchaku Banki into Long Banki (ロンバンキ, Ron Banki) so he can seek revenge on the Gekirangers.

After inadvertently revealing Long's true plans to Mere, Sanyo battles her and Geki Yellow, Blue, Violet and Chopper.

  • Suugu (スウグ, Sūgu): A White Tiger / Tiger of the Earthly Branches-themed Genshou and master of the Gen Jū Chimera-Ken (幻獣キメラ拳, Gen Jū Kimeraken) style, which allows him to use Geki and Rin Jūken styles, that Long created from Dan's Geki soul. While he initially lacked Dan's mind, Suugu slowly takes on aspects of the latter's personality and gains access to his memories.

Special DVD

Gyun-Gyun! Kensei Great Athletic Meet (ギュンギュン！拳聖大運動会, Gyun-Gyun! Kensei Daiundōkai) is a special DVD given out with the December issue of Terebi Magazine. After their latest win, the three Gekirangers find the Kensei stretching for their annual Kensei Great Athletic Meet. Jyan, wanting to win the gold medal and a year's supply of Terebi magazines, joins the Red Team (Sharkie, Bat, Elehung) to go against the White Team (Xia Fu and the Master Triangle). With Retsu as judge and Ran as moderator, the contest starts with the dunking match, as clips of the training results of Bat Li, Elephung, and Sharkie are shown, ending with the white Team winning by default. In the second match, a horseriding match, the White Team had the advantage due to the Master Triangle's teamwork, with clips of their training results shown. But due to the banana Gorie dropped prior to the match starting, the Red Team wins. In the tie breaker, a one-on-one Sumo match between Gorie and Sharkie. But neither refuse to lose, using the Double-Double Clone Fist to take their fight outside SCRTC. Sharkie's attacks have no effect until he managed to use Gorie's strength to make the win for the red team. Despite the White Team's losing, Xia Fu steals the magazines, with the red team and the Gekirangers in pursuit. After Xia Fu is disciplined, seeing he needs more training himself, the DVD ends with a clipshow of the series from Lessons 1 to 35.
