Plot

Three thousand years ago, the Space Pirates Balban invaded Earth. The Starbeasts and the first Gingamen, warriors of the Ginga Forest, fought them with a mystical power known as Earth and eventually imprisoned them. The Ginga people later cloaked their forest within marked boundaries and passed on the duty of the Ginga warriors through generations.

In the present day, Hyuuga, Hayate, Gouki, Hikaru and Saya are chosen as the 133rd warriors of the Starbeast Swords. Ryouma is very happy that his elder brother Hyuuga succeeds to the title. When Orghi holds the succession ceremony of the Starbeast Swords, an earthquake breaks the seal on the Balban.

Orghi orders the 133rd warriors to get the Ginga Braces hidden in Roaring Mountain. However, the Balban attacks them to prevent the birth of the new Gingamen. During the battle, Hyuuga is swallowed into a crack in the ground created by the Balban's leader Captain Zahab. Enraged, Ryouma activates his hidden Earth power and awakens the Ginga Braces. The Gingamen fight together with the Starbeasts against the Balban, who desire to revive the Demon Beast Daitanix, on whose corpse they built their castle.

Arsenal

• Ginga Brace (ギンガブレス, Ginga Buresu): The Gingamen's transformation devices, which are activated by turning a dial to a specific color on the brace. The Ginga Braces were given to the original Gingamen by the Star Beasts 3,000 years ago and passed down through the centuries. The transformation call is "Ginga Reincarnation" (ギンガ転生, Ginga Tensei).
• Star Beast Sword (星獣剣, Seijūken): The team's sidearms, which can be used to perform the Gingamen's individual special attacks or be shortened into a dagger when not in use.
• Beast Racehorses (獣走馬, Jūsōba): Horses that serve as transportation.
  • Red Spark (レッドスパーク, Reddo Supāku): A white horse ridden by Ginga Red.

When these five come together, they combine to become a finishing weapon, with the attack "Kiba Imperial Wrath" (機刃の激輪, Kiba no Gekirin). The Kibas draw power from the Star Beasts' planets. The Gingamen channel their Earth power into them to call upon the Star Beasts' power and later to revive them when they were petrified, also obtaining "newly born" power. They help in the five main Star Beasts' transformation into Silver Star Beasts. They can transform into any weapon the Gingamen choose:
  • Kiba Cutter (キバカッター, Kiba Kattā): A short sword used by Ginga Red, with its technique Fire Cut.
  • Kiba Shot (キバショット, Kiba Shotto): A handgun used by Ginga Green, with its technique Blast Shoot.

  • Kiba Knives (キバナイフ, Kiba Naifu): A pair of daggers used by Ginga Yellow, with their technique Lightning Cut.

• Juugekibos (獣撃棒, Jūgekibō, Beast Attack Rods): Created by Moak, they are rods that can be shortened into bazookas by the command, Juugekiha, so the Gingamen can perform the Ginga Juugekidan (銀河獣撃弾, Ginga Jūgekidan, Galaxy Beast Attack Bullet) team attack. Ginga Red uses his Rod in the Blazing Flames Juugeki (猛火獣撃, Mōka Jūgeki) attack. Moak creates more advanced rods in episode 47 to fight the Earth Demon Beast. These Rods can be used with the Beast Armor Shine or by the Gingamen in human form. They can perform an attack called the Senkou Juugekidan (閃光獣撃弾, Senkō Jūgekidan, Flashing Beast Attack Bullet).
• Bull Riot (ブルライアット, Buru Raiatto): Hyuuga's sword that functions as his transformation device, using it to transform into the Black Knight by using the transformation call "Knight Reincarnation" (騎士転生, Kishi Tensei). Originally belonging to Bull Black, the Bull Riot can be changed into an alternate rifle mode. Attacks with multiple slash attacks; including "Black Chop" and "Black Attack".
• Shining Beast Armor (獣装光, Jūsōkō): An armor upgrade the team receives from the power of the Lights of Ginga. It is summoned by the command "Roar! Lights of Ginga!" (ほえろ！ギンガ光！, Hoero! Ginga Hikari!), but all five Gingamen need to be present for it to work. Their team attack is the "Galaxy War Radiance" (銀河戦光, Ginga Senkō).
  • Flashing Star Beast Sword (閃光星獣剣, Senkō Seijūken): Upgraded from the Star Beast Swords.
  • Beast Armor Claw (獣装の爪, Jūsō no Tsume): A brace with two claw-like blades that is worn on the left forearm.
  • Mobile Steed Galeo Pulsar (機動馬ガレオパルサー, Kidōba Gareo Parusā): With the knowledge from the deceased Bull Black that the Lights of Ginga can change shape depending on the user's will, the Gingaman, while in Shining Beast Armor form, can gather the Lights of Ginga to create the Galeo Pulsar, a motorcycle that is themed after Ginga Red's Star Beast GingaLeon. When summoned, it temporarily removes the Beast Armor enhancements from the Gingamen. Its attack is the Lion War Blast, while its finisher is the Lion Shining Armor (獅子の装光, Shishi no Sōkō) where it rams into its target with the flaming Lights of Ginga energy. After a Majin is defeated, the Galeo Pulsar changes back into the Gingamans' Beast Armor enhancements, which are then returned to them.
• Knight Axe (ナイトアックス, Naito Akkusu): A cursed weapon that Hyuuga receives from Bucrates that has the power to destroy the Star Soul Jewel that sustains Zahab. As Hyuuga had sacrificed his Earth power, only he can wield it as Ryouma once tried to pick it up in Episode 41, only for the energy feedback from the Axe caused him great pain. The Knight Axe is destroyed by Zahab in the finale, but not before damaging his Star Soul Jewel.

Starbeasts

The Starbeasts (星獣 Seijū) are sentient beings, originally from different planets (Galeon, Galcon, Garilla, Gaverick, Gat, Taurus, Rhinos, Phoenix and Bitus). They help the Gingaman. The Gingaman's Earth power increases when man and beast combine. When the Gingaman channel the energy of the Star Beasts' home planet through their Kiba Swords the first five Star Beasts are able to transform into Silver Star Beasts (銀星獣 Ginseijū) by the command "Great Rebirth, Silver Star Beasts!" (大転生銀星獣 Daitensei Ginseijū).

The planets of Star Beasts GingaRhinos, GingaPhoenix and GingaBitus were destroyed by the Barban long before. They were converted into Steel Star Beasts (鋼星獣 Kōseijū) by Biznella under his control when they were rendered dormant. After recharging them with the Lights of Ginga, Biznella set them against the Gingamen. The fact that they were Star Beasts made Super Armor Shine Gingaioh and Bull Taurus reluctant to fight them. However, the Steel Star Beasts were freed from their programming by the brotherhood of their fellow Star Beasts on the night of the "Star Festival". They then destroyed Biznella near the finale. They aided the Gingamen in many of their battles. However, in the Gingaman vs. Megaranger special, Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix bid farewell to the Gingamen after fighting Ghelmadix. Giga Bitus is not killed after two of them are sacrificed.

Following the arrival of Grandiene in 1999, the Star Beasts became dormant under the sea, but Dr. Tatsumi locates them in time to help the Gingamen help GoGoFive to battle the Dark Beast with Hyuuga's assistance who uses his power to revive them.

Cruel and violent but at the same time a great strategist and expert warrior who became immortal thanks to a Star Soul Jewel created by Daitanix, using the monster to gather a crew by offering them long life. Zahab's left hand is missing, as a result of the battle sustained with the first generation Ginga Red three thousand years earlier. He has replaced it with a cannon integrated hook. As a result, Zahab has a grudge against those who take the mantle of Ginga Red, including Ryouma. Hearing the death of an underling does not seem to affect him, but deep inside he suffers in private. Eventually, having known of Shelinda's death, Zahab can not take it anymore and falls apart in grief. In the final battle he uses the castle to take control of the Earth Demon Beast, but Zahab is forced to flee from his castle when it is destroyed by BullTaurus. After losing the Earth Beast, Zahab fights and beats the tar out of the Gingamen, until Ginga Red and Black Knight use their fire ability to destroy his Star Soul Jewel. He is then killed by the Black Knight's Black Chop, the Gingamens' Galaxy War Radiance, and finally by Super Armor Shine Ginga Red's Beast Fire Flash attack as the final blow. He is later resurrected by Gregory, only to be killed once again by the Gingamen in the Galaxy Lights armor in Seijuu Sentai Gingaman vs. Megaranger. Zahab is voiced by Hidekatsu Shibata (柴田 秀勝 Shibata Hidekatsu), who previously voiced Daimaoh in Ninja Sentai Kakuranger.
• Captain Gregory (グレゴリ艦長, Guregori-kanchō, Gingaman vs. Megaranger): An old friend of Zahab's who came to Earth to revive the Space Pirates Balban, with the aid of Hizumina, Dr. Hinelar's second "daughter". He had his own personal Majin Ghelmadix which was originally a second Daitanix. According to Moku, Gregory was sealed by the Starbeasts long before the Balban, feared as much as they were, all on his own. He could make himself grow without the aid of an enchanted liquid. Eventually revived every Barban member along with almost every Majin. He was killed by Galaxy Mega & Super Armor Shine GingaiOh. Gregory is voiced by Seizō Katō (加藤 精三 Katō Seizō), who previously voiced Dai Satan in Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger.
• Steerwoman Shelinda (操舵士シェリンダ, Sōdashi Sherinda, 1–49, Gingaman vs. Megaranger): The cruel and selfish second-in-command and the navigator of the Balban. A warrior with a sword and shell-themed armor, Shelinda had romantic feelings for Budoh though never forgave him for saving her life sometime in the past. During the Sutoiji incident, Shelinda destroys Hayate's flute before later attempting to stop him from making a new one. After finding him as Sutoiji is defeated, Shelinda duels Ginga Green with it ending with her forearm scarred as she vows a vendetta on him to the point of not allowing her own comrades to deny her killing Hayate. The most anxious to see Daitanix revived as her position of Steerwoman was pointless without Daitanix to steer often going to the aid of a Majin to speed along the revival. Shelinda is eventually killed in a final duel with Hayate in episode 49, where only her sword remained, to which the Yartots deliver it to Zahab to inform him of Shelinda's death. The sword itself was later destroyed along with Zahab's castle. Shelinda is later revived by Gregory, and is killed once again by the Gingaman in the Galaxy Lights armor in Seijuu Sentai Gingaman vs. Megaranger. Shelinda is portrayed by Kei Mizutani (水谷 ケイ).
• Barreled Scholar Bucrates (樽学者ブクラテス, Tarugakusha Bukuratesu, 1–35): A stout little scholar with a barrel-armored body, Bucrates lacks battle skills, though he makes up for it with his extensive knowledge. He is called "Mentor" (先生, Sensei) by Zahab and is the one who gave Zahab an immortal body. Prior to Sambash named acting general, Bucrates supported his niece Illiess in taking on the position from the start. While Budoh was acting general, Bucrates felt humiliated by the general after his numerous attempts to upstage Budoh. He proceeds to conspire with Iliess to frame Budou so she can become acting general. Though it seemed they got away with it, it turned out Zahab knew of the plot yet allowed Bucrates to remain until Illiess's death. Attempting to resurrect Illiess in secret, Bucrates is mortally wounded by Zahab and wrapped in chains as he is sent to a watery grave. However, his newfound hatred for Zahab allowed Bucrates to survive the ocean pressure while changing into a new form called Barreled Scholar of Revenge Bucrates (復讐の樽学者ブクラテス, Fukushū no Tarugakusha Bukuratesu, 37–49). Escaping his binds, Bucrates vows revenge on the Balban, capturing the wounded GoTaurus in a small barrel to get Hyuuga's assistance. Bucrates later let GoTaurus out temporarily to have Hyuuga aid the Gingamen against Daitanix in episode 42, before drawing them both back when the battle was over. However, Bucrates is mortally wounded in episode 48, by Shelinda for his betrayal, before he can see his revenge fulfilled and subsequently commits suicide in episode 49 with a bomb to give Hyuuga a chance to escape with GoTaurus after giving the barrel back to Hyuuga. Bucrates is portrayed by Chafurin (茶風林).

The Balban Army Generals

Four of the strongest Majins, they each lead one of Zahab's four armies. Due to quarrels in the past that caused them to be sealed away, Zahab has only one General-in-command form a plan at a time.

• Gun Boss Sambash (銃頭サンバッシュ, Jūtō Sanbasshu, 1–12, 18, 19 (flashback) & Gingaman vs. Megaranger): A hot-headed biker/gunman who carries a pistol and rides a motorcycle with cannons. His Majin are based on invertebrae. 3,000 years ago, Bull Black had come to Earth to hide the Galaxy Lights and Sambash cornered him to learn where they were hidden. Bull Black gave him the key of an empty chest and a fake location in Cape Kagerou, with Sambash keeping this information from Zahab. Being the first general chosen to revive it, Sambash attempts to find ways of providing energy for Daitanix to revive. After continuous failures to revive Daitanix and defeat the Gingamen, Sambash decided to go after the Galaxy Lights by first having Neikaa open up the cave at Cape Kagerou where the box containing the lights was hidden. Unable to open the entrance without an Earth user, Sambash has Gurinjii assume Hyuga's form to trick Ryouma into fetching it for him. As Gurinjii is destroyed by GingaiOh, heavily wounded from his fight with Ginga Red, Sambash opens the box to use the Lights of Ginga on himself to even the odds. However, finding it empty and with nothing to lose, a crazed Sambash climbs onto his bike to run over Ginga Red. In the process, after being hit by Ginga Red's attack, Sambash drives off a cliff as his motorcycle explodes, destroying both itself and him.

His Majin are traditional Japanese Samurai culture and sea creature based. Budoh was always well-mannered and thanked his fallen Majin, who called him "My Grand General". He takes over the search for the Galaxy Light to revive Daitanix after Sambash dies, using a scroll of potential hosts that might contain the Light. With only one entry left, with his life endanged, Budoh sends his most powerful servant, Dotoumusha, to retrieve the Galaxy Light with success. However, Budoh is set up by Bucrates and Iliess to be made as a treasonous cur wanting the Light for himself. Placed in the brig, unable to perform Seppuku for an act he never even did, Budoh escapes to clear his name and kill the Gingamen to reclaim the Galaxy Light. But once learning the truth of Iliess framing him, seeing that nothing would ever clear his name, Budoh kills Medoumedou before arriving to his ninjas' aid to fight Juusoukou Ginga Red to the death. After being mortally wounded by Juusoukou Ginga Red's Juukasen, attempting to resist his injuries, Budoh meets his end and dies in a blaze of glory with Girasame landing near the riverbed.

Her majin are based around entities from different cultural mythologies. Illiess is also immortal as she can resurrect herself no matter the number of times she is killed as long as her Soul Gem is unharmed. Having become impatient with waiting, Illiess conspired with her uncle Bucrates to depose Budoh so she can become the new active general. Having succeeded, Illiess intended to revive Daitanix through various forms of sorcery and mass sacrifices so she can obtain the riches Zahab offered for the monster's resurrection. However, after losing the Koseijuu, Illiess is given additional incentive to revive Daitanix when Zaihab decides to reduce her earnings for each day she fails her objective. After the death of her younger brother Desphias, Illiess is forced to take matters into her own hands. Erecting a tower in the city's plaza, Illiess conjures lizards to suck the blood of 9,999 people to revive Daitanix. When the Gingamen arrive, Illiess absorbs the souls of her fallen Majin to assume a powerful Chimera-like fighting form called Evil Empress Illiess (邪帝イリエス, Jatei Iriesu, 34) who sports the faces of the different Majin on her body and lizard-like limbs. As the other Gingamen and Hyuga fight copies of Morgumorgu, Hielahiela, Garagara, Wangawanga, and Burakiburaki, Ryouma battles Illiess and destroys the tower. Defeated by the Supershine Gingamen and Black Knight, Iliess refuses to stand down and uses her magic to enlarge herself.

They are divided in four armies depending on their home galaxy and the strongest member of each is appointed General.

Demon Beasts

The Demom Beasts are three powerful aliens.

Daitanix

Demon Beast Daitanix (魔獣ダイタニクス Majū Daitanikusu, 1-42) is a dinosaur-themed Demon Beast who was born in a contaminated star (which also happened to be Zahab's home planet) and his only instinct/purpose is to destroy planets by absorbing their life force to condense into jewels, which Zahab would add to his collection to maintain his immortality and to expand the lives of his followers. In battle, Daitanix possesses powerful jaws, his tail is extremely muscular, and he can fire powerful blasts of energy from his mouth. By attaching his castle to Daitanix's back, Zahab was able to control him, destroying and absorbing stars throughout the Milky Way. The goal of the Barban is the resurrection of Daitanix which was still in a state of lifelessness after the seal was broken in the earthquake. The plan finally succeeds when Iliess' lifeforce is absorbed by him. It results in the monster's heart beating and Battobas eventually gathered enough energy to fully revive him by having Degius act as a conduct for a massive amount of energy from a passing Asteroid. When finally revived, he easily defeated Super Armor Shine Gingaioh even with Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix, but his body decays during the fight as his back where the Barban castle stood had gotten too far rotten, so the Barban leave the monster to die. After the Gingamen and Black Knight damage his back in the following battle he is overpowered by Bull Taurus armed with the Knight Axe, double-teaming Giga Phoenix and Giga Rhinos, and then finally killed by Super Armor Shine Gingaioh.

Earth Demon Beast

The Earth Demon Beast (地球魔獣 Chikyū Majū, 44-50) was the result of a piece of Daitanix's flesh ending up within the Earth itself upon being destroyed, feeding on the life of the planet. The Barban then decides to make him the new host of their castle. However, having just been born, the Earth Demon Beast was still in an immature state, so Battobas attempts to give him the Extreme Growth Extract eventually succeeding with the monster now fully grown but at the cost of his life. At full size, he possessed immense brute strength, could breathe fire, and was able to fire deadly bursts of energy from his claws. During the battle, Ryouma focuses on using his Earth element of fire so they could destroy the Earth Demon Beast without the risk of creating a new Demon Beast. Having attached the castle to him, Zahab confronts Gingaman, increasing the Earth Demon Beast's fighting abilities. The Earth Demon Beast puts up an excellent fight, to which Hyuuga uses up most of Bull Taurus's power to destroy Zahab's castle and fight Zahab elsewhere to give the others a fighting chance. After a hard battle, the beast is killed by a sustained burst of fire from Super Armor Shine Gingaioh after gaining a power boost from Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix, which incinerates his body in the process.

Ghelmadix

Demon Beast Fortress Ghelmadix (魔獣要塞ゲルマディック Majū Yōsai Gerumadikusu, Gingaman vs. Megaranger) is the second red-colored Daitanix that belongs to Gregory. Originally, it was called Daitanix 2. Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix use all their power to try to destroy it, which cause themselves to be destroyed in the process. Unfortunately, Daitanix 2 was only injured, and used the Earth's energy to heal itself, becoming a blue-colored version of itself, now named Ghelmadix. It is killed by Bull Taurus & Super Armor Shine Gingaioh.

International broadcast and home video

• In its home country of Japan from April 1999 till March 2000, Toei Video released the series throughout 12 VHS volumes. The first ten volumes contained four episodes, while the final two contained five. From January 21, 2005 until May 21, 2005, Toei Video then gave the full series a DVD release for the first time and spread throughout five volumes, containing two discs with each holding ten episodes. On April 10, 2019, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the series' conclusion, a collection set to spread through two volumes was released with both volumes having 25 episodes.
• In the Philippines, it was aired on ABS-CBN in 2000 as the Power Rangers adaptation Lost Galaxy with a Filipino dub.
• International releases for Gingaman were limited to a few Asian regions, as most regions around the world would receive foreign language dubs of the U.S.' adaptation based on this series, which was Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. Although, Japan aired a Japanese dub of the series from September 2, 2001 to July 14, 2002 on the Super Channel. All 45 episodes were covered. Indonesia also aired a dub of the series on Indosiar in 1999 prior.
  • In Thailand, the series was given a Thai dub in 2001 and TIGA Company had the rights to it, despite Power Rangers Lost Galaxy was aired there. They were prioritized to release the series on VHS and VCD after they lost the rights to Mirai Sentai Timeranger during that time as it went to Rose Home Entertainment (formerly Rose Video), so they released this series instead.
  • The series aired in Hong Kong with a Cantonese Chinese dub from December 16, 2001 until November 24, 2002 on TVB Jade with all 50 episodes dubbed.
  • In Indonesia, the series aired with an Indonesian dub on Indosiar under the name, Cosmic Ranger in 2006. Despite the popularity of Power Rangers in that country, this was the very last Super Sentai series to be released and dubbed in full for the region until Uchu Sentai Kyuranger made its debut in 2019 there with a full dub.
• In North America, the series would receive a DVD release by Shout! Factory on January 30, 2018 in the original Japanese audio with English subtitles. It is the seventh Super Sentai series to be officially released in the region.
