Juukou B-Fighter (重甲ビーファイター, Jūkō Bī Faitā, lit. Heavy Shell B-Fighter), was a 1995 Japanese tokusatsu television series. B-Fighter is short for "Beetle Fighter". It was part of Toei's ongoing Metal Hero Series. It dealt with three members of the prestigious Earth Academia (アースアカデミア, Āsu Akademia) fighting against the evil forces of the otherworldly Jamahl Empire.

Storyline

The insects of the world all swarm for unknown reasons. To investigate this, Takuya Kai of the Earth Academia journeys into the jungle and met Guru in a cave. Guru tells him that invaders from another dimension are coming to take over the Earth, and that the insects are fighting to protect it. Takuya says humans will fight too. As perparations are being made, the Jamahl arrives on Earth, sending its generals and soldiers to start enslaving mankind. Daisaku and Rei save a girl from Jamar soldiers, but are captured.

Meanwhile, at the Earth Academia, Professor Mukai and Takuya are working on three prototype armor suits to help combat Jamahl. Guru appears there and fuses three beetles into the suits, giving them life. The armors shrink and enter the three B-Commanders, and Guru tells them to select three warriors to fight Gaohm. One chooses Takuya, transforming him into Blue Beet when he opens the B-Commander and cries "Juukou!", and the others fly off to Daisaku and Rei. They change into G-Stag and Reddle, and when Blue Beet arrives the three of them fight off the Jamahl forces.

With their new-found power, the B-Fighters fight to drive back Jamahl's forces. Using their versatile Input Magnums and their powerful Stinger Weapons, they force the Jamahl troops to retreat. Jamahl, however, is too strong to be beaten so easily, and continues to set into motion plans for its world conquest. Its three generals Gigaro, Jera, and Schwartz send monster after monster after the B-Fighters, but all of them destroyed. Even Gaohm is apparently killed by Blue Beet, but returns soon after in a stronger form. The B-Fighters also use their Beet Machines to fight the Jamahl jet fighters whenever they're required.

Characters

The B-Fighters

  • Takuya Kai/Blue Beet (甲斐 拓也/ブルービート, Kai Takuya/Burū Bīto): A 23-year old insect researcher at the Earth Academia, he is the team leader. The first to meet Guru in the South American rainforest, he was also the first to gain a B-Commander and use his suit. As Blue Beet, his armor was modeled after a male Japanese rhinoceros beetle. His blood was used in the creation of his "evil twin" Shadow. At the second half of the series, Blue Beet gained the ability to evolve into Super Blue Beet (スーパーブルービート, Sūpā Burū Bīto) by the command "Metal-Phose!" (重甲超進化(メタルフォーゼ), Metarufōze).
  • Daisaku Katagiri/G-Stag (片霧 大作/ジースタッグ, Katagiri Daisaku/Jī Sutaggu): At age 23, he is an impetuous but nature-loving man. A tree doctor, Daisaku claims to be able to hear trees and plants when they are dying. He, along with Rei, was captured by the Jamar and held as captives during the start of the invasion of Earth, but upon receiving his B-Commander Daisaku made quick work of Jamar soldiers. He was also aquaphobic until he overcame his fear to save his father Daitesu Katagiri, a fisherman, from a trap laid by the Ebikaania. As the most physically powerful of the B-Fighters, G-Stag's armor is modeled after a stag beetle. G-Stag is strong enough to lift the Jamar soldiers and toss them around like rag dolls.
  • Rei Hayama/Reddle I (羽山 麗/初代レッドル, Hayama Rei/Shodai Reddoru, 1-21): A 22-year old an animal instructor at Earth Academia's Aquarium. Captured along with Daisaku at first and receiving her B-Commander at the same time, she made quick work of Jamar soldiers before joining forces with Takuya and Daisaku. Being the only female B-Fighter, her armor was modeled after a female Japanese rhinoceros beetle. Reddle is the fastest and most nimble of the B-Fighters. She eventually left for the South American branch of Earth Academia to do research and help with protecting the wildlife there.
  • Mai Takatori/Reddle II (鷹取 舞/2代目レッドル, Takatori Mai/Nidaime Reddoru, 22-53): Rei's successor, a young and cheerful 19-year old student who was "chosen" by Rei's B-Commander as the next Reddle.

He returns to Earth to visit his mother's grave, bringing the Beet Ingram with him. Very childish and naiive, Kabuto often tries to be a hero, only to put himself in danger. He returned at the end of the series to assist the other Metal Heroes in defeating Jagul.

Daisaku soon learned that Sinbad was infiltrating Jamahl in an attempt to assassinate Gaohm for destroying his homeworld. Gaohm learned of this, however, and sent a resurrected Death Mult to kill Sinbad and the B-Fighters. Realizing that the only way for the B-Fighters to return home was by the explosion caused by Death Mult's demise, Sinbad kamikazed Death Mult and killed them both. Before the B-Fighters became free and left the dimension, Sinbad asked them to please defeat Gaohm and the Jamahl.
  • Muscle (マッスル, Massuru, 40): A mysterious armored amphibious alien who arrives on Earth with a shining feather that belongs to Saint Papilia. He was once healed by her power, and has followed clues about her to Earth. Already weakened upon his arrival on Earth, Muscle confronts both the B-Fighters and the Jamahl forces, only to be killed by Black Beet. Black Beet then gains possession of Papilia's feather. He was more of a guest character than a malevolent alien.

Jamahl

Beings from another dimension, the Jamahl (ジャマール, Jamāru)'s base of operation, the Jamahl Fortress (ジャマール要塞, Jamāru Yōsai) was a claw-like dreadnaught. It had an opening where the palm would be, where the Jamar fighter jets emerged from and where Jamahl's new super-weapons were located.

  • Emperor Gaohm (ガオーム, Gaōmu, 1-50): The mysterious leader of the Jamahl, who first appeared as a tall figure with a white and purple robe and chitinous face. Gaohm possessed the power to teleport people to the Gaohm Zone (ガオームゾーン, Gōmu Zōn). He was supposedly killed by the B-Fighters, only to reappears as a gigantic torso floating in space with an exposed purple heart, only one arm (the right one) and wires running all through and over/on his body. However, both forms were dummies used by the real Gaohm, a small embryonic enity in a tank full of liquid. Gaohm revealed that he was born from a space warp and wandered through space until he gained enough power to assemble the Jamahl for his life-long goal of capturing Saint Papilia so he can obtain immortality. To that end, he plans to destroy all life on Earth, using the Jamahl Hole (ジャマールホール, Jamāru Hōru), by sucking up the world's atmosphere so everyone would die and Saint Papilia will come to revive Earth, only to be captured and be forced to give Gaohm the immortality. After he creates the Jamahl Hole, he was killed when his fortress crashed on Earth. Gaohm was later revived/absorbed by Jagul in the series finale.
  • Jera (ジェラ, Jera, 1-50): The female leader of the Mercenary Army (傭兵軍団, Yōhei Gundan) who wore a red robe and had a white mannequin-like face mask and a red beret. She used an electromagnetic whip that she could charge with energy, as a weapon, in battle. In battle, Jera discarded her robe to reveal a leotard-like, red and pink costume. She assumes a woman form named Gira (ジーラ, Gīra). She turned against Gaohm upon learning of Gigaro's death by his hand, allying herself only with Shadow/Black Beet, who had also saved her from Schwartz's insane rage upon losing his body. After seeing Gaohm kill Hidra, Jera decided to rebel against her former leader. Upon seeing Gaohm in his true form, Jera was mortally wounded and cast back down to earth. After being found by the B-Fighters, her mask disappeared, revealing her to be a blonde, caucasian woman. Before dying, she revealed how the B-Fighters could infiltrate Gaohm's ship.
  • Schwartz (シュヴァルツ, Shuvarutsu, 1-48): The leader of the Combat-Robot Army (戦闘ロボット軍団, Sentō Robotto Gundan), he was actually a computer virus given a mechanical body. He makes himself a special umbrella that allows him to fly, and could be used as a weapon. It is later destroyed by the B-Fighters newly acquired Pulsabers. When Jera left Jamahl and Gigaro died, Schwartz took on the B-Fighters on is own, taking on a new tank-like form called Schwartz Tank (シュヴァルツタンク, Shubarutsu Tanku, 47). His body was destroyed in the process by Stagger Tank and Red Gyro's Attack Formation, though his head survived. However, the damage left Schwartz critically insane. Schwartz even tried to kill Jera, but she was saved by Black Beet. He took control of various objects on Earth (one of them being a Giant Stone Statue which was destroyed by the Mega Beet Formation) before his "immortal head" was blasted into outer space where it will orbit the Earth for all eternity.
  • General Gigaro (ギガロ, Gigaro, 1-46): A creature composed of various animal parts, Gigaro commanded the Synthoid-Beast Army (合成獣軍団, Gōseijū Gundan). Gigaro was originally a skeletal creature on a desert planet in the Garo dimension, hunted for unknown reasons by humanoids. Exhausted and near death, Gaohm gave him a new powerful body and recruited him into Jamahl. Gigaro used a white bonelike sword and his whale-flatop could open to reveal a gun. Gigaro imbued himself with life energy meant for the Jamahl to power-up into Final Gigaro (ファイナルギガロ, Fainaru Gigaro, 46-47), a red and white version of himself with more power. Defeated by Super Blue Beet, he was ultimately killed by his master Gaohm so that his life energy would hasten the completion of the Jamahl Hole. Gigaro was originally supposed to be revived/absorbed by Jagul, but Mai and Kabuto's interference left Gigaro to remain dead and Jagul with a weak point on her new body.
  • Sorceress Jagul (魔道士ジャグール, Madōshi Jagūru, 19-20, 52-53): A mysterious woman Gaohm commissioned to create an evil B-Fighter. Jagul sent a long-horned beetle to bite Takuya and take a DNA sample from him. From the beetle and Takuya's cells, Jagul created Shadow/Black Beet. She is seemingly killed by Black Beet, but resurfaced long after Jamahl was destroyed and started kidnapping young women and resurrecting several defeated monsters to battle the heroes (including Gagamoth's first form and Iluba from B-Fighter as well as Queen (Blue S.W.A.T.'s enemy), Billgoldy (Janperson's enemy), and assorted aliens that Blue S.W.A.T. had fought in their series. Jagul soon underwent a transformation into a composite-entity with eight arms and the faces of Gaohm's second form, Black Beet, and the various resurrected creatures (Bagma Virus, Death Mult, and some of the monsters fought by Blue SWAT) on her after reviving/absorbing them. She even betrayed/aborbed Queen and Billgoldy once they outlived their usefulness and their faces appeared on her. She trapped the B-Fighters, Janperson, Gun Gibson, and the Blue S.W.A.T. team in a pocket dimension, but Blue Beet managed to escape and hit Jagul's weak point (which Gigaro's face was supposed to go if he was revived/absorbed by Jagul) to release the others. She was soon mortally wounded by the ultimate attacks of Super Blue Beet, Hyper Shou, and Janperson's Flash Cannon which regressed her back to her previous form. Afterwards, she was dragged into death by Billgoldy.
  • Shadow/Black Beet (シャドー/ブラックビート, Shadō/Burakku Bīto, 19-29, 31-33, 35-51): An evil clone of Takuya/Blue Beet made by the nefarious Jagul, Shadow is highly powerful, and by raising his Black Commander (ブラックコマンダー, Burakku Komandā) and shouting "Jakou!" (邪甲!, Jakō!, Evil Shell!), was quite a formidable opponent to the other B-Fighters as Black Beet, whose armor was modeled after a Longhorn beetle. Because he was a clone, Shadow could not survive on his own and sought Saint Papilia's power to obtain an immortal life of his own. He's weapons are a black Input Magnum known as the Jamming Magnum, and an extending hand-claw known as the Stinger Byoot. He died at Super Blue Beet's hands, reduced to a pile of black ash. Black Beet was later revived/absorbed by Jagul in the series finale.
  • Jamars (ジャマー, Jamā, 1-49): Faceless soldiers that served Gaohm and were employed in menial tasks. Gaohm has his own Bodyguards (親衛隊, Shineitai, 50), who are more powerful than the normal versions. Bodyguards can only be destroyed by destroying their head. Bodyguards can reassemble themselves as well as blast lasers from their eyes.
  • Jamahl Jet Fighters (ジャマール戦闘機, Jamāru Sentōki): Jet fighters piloted by the Jamars.

Monsters

Jamahl's monsters come in different armies, each led by one of the three Jamahl generals.

Mercenary Army

Led by Jera, the Mercenary Army (傭兵軍団, Yōhei Gundan) is composed of mercenary warriors from various dimensions who joined Jamahl for various reasons; some of these warriors were humans wearing armor.

  • Saberiza (サーベライザ, Sāberaiza, 1): A swordsman who carried a large sword that he used as a weapon, and was the first of Jamahl's monsters that the B-Fighters battled against after gaining their powers. Killed by the three Stinger Weapons.
  • Zaiking (ザイキング, Zaikingu, 6, 30): Sent to burn down the forests. His head resembled that of a cow's skull and he wielded an axe-covered mace in battle. He could blast lasers from the axe-covered mace. Zaiking's destruction of the forest angered Daisaku, an avid lover of nature, and lead to him defeating Zaiking. Was later revived for a competition, and was killed by Hammer Kong.
  • Bardas (バルダス, Barudasu, 8): An other-dimensional warrior who got his power from a jewel called the Pholon Jewel, which fits inside his head. With his jewel he could fire energy blasts and was nearly unstoppable, but the B-Fighters destroyed it and killed him after losing his jewel had horribly weakened him.
  • Baala (バーラ, Bāra, 10): A comrade of Jera's who wore an armored chestplate made from the Black Dragon (ブラックドラゴン, Burakku Doragon), a monster that Jera and Baala defeated some time ago together. Eventually, however, the revenge-filled spirit within the armor turned on Baala and possessed her so it could have its' revenge on Jera through this new vessel. Baala finally broke free of its control and stabbed it and herself with a dagger. Near death, but free of the Dragon and still a warrior, Baala challenged Blue Beet to a duel and died a warrior's death.
  • Iluba (イルバ, Iruba, 16, 30, 52-53): Iluba was sent to kill Mina, the last survivor of the Botania Dimension (The Botania Dimension is one of the many dimensions that Jamahl had conquered). Her father sent her to our dimension with the seeds of the Botania tribe, and erased her memory. Iluba sort of resembled a samurai warrior. The source of his power was his sword, which G-Stag destroyed and finished the weakened Iluba off using his Stinger Claws Raging Slash. He is later revived and killed Death Launcher, but was killed by Sinbad. He was later revived again by Jagul to fight the B-Fighters.
  • Gorgodal (ゴルゴダル, Gorugodaru, 23): Gorgodal was one of Jera's mercenaries who fought the B-Fighters for the money. When Mai gave him a scolding for following Jera, and ultimately Jamahl, just for the money, Gorgodal decided to quit and tried to return the money he had been paid. But Gaohm didn't accept this and brainwashed Gorgodal so that he would be nothing but a raging monster. Mai tried to talk to him again, but he could barely remember her name. Gorgodal eventually had to be destroyed by Reddle using her Saber Magnum, but was given a burial and his grave was marked with his own shuriken.
  • Shinigamian (シニガミアン, Shinigamian, 28): A Grim Reaper-like being with the power to summon the spirits of the dead and control them, unless they had things they wanted to accomplish on Earth, which made them able to resist his control. One of the ghosts raised, a young girl named Yuri wanted to fall in love before she died and thus resisted crossing over. She fell in love with Takuya and helped him fight Shinigamian by helping the other ghosts realize they were just being used. Once Shinigamian was dead, the ghosts were free to return to the afterlife. Yuri followed this time, having fallen in love with Takuya and thus finishing her unfinished business.
  • Night Biker (ナイトバイカー, Naito Baikā, 33): Originally Kazuma Iwata, a reckless biker met by Mai, he was put in Jamhal's "Survival School" with Mai, who tried to get him and the other captured people, out of the School. Kazuma was brainwashed and changed into an evil warrior by a machine used by Jera. The control device was in his bike's fairing, and when that was destroyed, Night Biker changed back into Kazuma, now safe and back to normal.
  • Hidra (ヒドラ, Hidora, 49): Nicknamed Spider of Flame, she was assigned the job of capturing Guru so Gaohm could use him to gather the energy of the insects on the planet to complete the Jamahl Hole. Gaohm, secretly from Jera, promised Hidra that she would take Jera's place, if she had succeeded, which she did, and he gave her an armband as proof of her new rank. However, the armband was actually a bomb. Despite Jera's learning of this and warning Hidra, Hidra blew up and died but not before telling the B-Fighter to kill Gaohm for her. In battle, Hidra could blast fire and smoke from her mouth as well as send out web threads to wrap/bind her enemies.

Synthoid-Beast Army

Led by Gigaro, the Synthoid-Beast Army (合成獣軍団, Gōseijū Gundan) is composed of humanoid chimeras and other animal-based creatures.

  • Heavysnake (ヘビーズネーク, Hebīzunēku, 2): Sent to hunt and capture humans for Jamahl, it has a humanoid body with a long snake draped over the head area that serves as its arms. In battle with the B-Fighters, the snake was destroyed to reveal a second head and pair of arms underneath. The second head could blast lasers from its' mouth, but Heavysnake was still destroyed.
  • Bagma Virus (バグマビルス, Bagumabirusu, 5, 30): Can shrink to microscopic size and infiltrate the B-Fighers' Insect Armor and control them to move as he wished, and could reproduce asexually to control more than one B-Fighter at once. In battle, he could blast electricity from his antennae. He was eventually destroyed by the B-Fighters. Bagma Virus was later revived and later killed by Sinbad, and later on was revived/absorbed by Jagul in the series finale.
  • Garinezu (ガリネーズ, Garinēzu, 9, 30): A hunchbacked gray-furred rat monster with sharp gnawing teeth. His mission was to gnaw through underground power cables to create a mass panic. However, he had a phobia of cats, so severe that he ran out of the battle at the sight of one. To cure this, Gigaro forced Garinezu to run through a maze with Jamar soldiers holding cats behind every corner 100 times. After the 100th time, his fear was gone, though he was still killed by Blue Beet. In battle, he could roll into a ball and tackle opponents as well as breathe fire. Later was revived, but killed in a suicide attempt against Blue Beet.
  • Namakeruge (ナマケルゲ, Namakeruge, 12, 30): A sloth monster who lacked any motivation to fight. He could steal others' motivation for himself and did so with Takuya and Daisaku. The stolen motivation was collected in the pouch on his back. He was able to steal the motivation of both Takuya and Daisaku, but the insect power of their B-Commanders brought them back to their senses. He was killed when G-Stag sliced the pouch open to restore everyone's motivation, leaving them free to finish him off in his weakened state. Later was revived, but killed in a suicide attempt against Blue Beet.
  • Bububu (ブーブーブー, Būbūbū, 15, 30): A pig monster who could breathe a white gas that stole human voices, rendering people unable to make any noises other than pig grunting and sqealing. In battle he could also breathe fire and blast lasers from his tusks. Reddle finished him off with the Stinger Plasma. Later was revived, but killed in a suicide attempt against Blue Beet.
  • Kamazakiller (カマザキラー, Kamazakirā, 21, 30): A praying mantis monster whose mission was to spread its eggs throughout the city, injecting them into people using her long, spiked tongue. The eggs would then grow and hatch her offspring inside their hosts. Kamazakiller was killed by Blue Beet's new weapon, the Stinger Drill, using the Strike Blast. Later he is revived, only to be killed by G-Stag with some help from Sinbad.
  • Ebiganya (エビガーニャ, Ebigānya, 26): A red-shelled crab/shrimp combination monster who could emit a liquid that turned ordinary water into poison. After Daisaku's father tried to stop him from polluting the water, Ebigaanya set him adrift with a bomb in his boat. Daisaku overcame his fear of the water and saved his father, and returned to battle Shrimpcrabya. He was killed by a hot water blast from the Input Magnums, which cooked him and rendered him incapacitated for G-Stag to finish him off with the Raging Slash. In battle he could deflect shots from his shelled armor as well as blast water as strong pulses.
  • Maskuder (マスクーダー, Masukūdā, 31): Supposedly based on an amoeba, he wears a gold mask with rows of faces surround it while nested on each other, extending in a starlike pattern. Maskuder disguised himself as a plastic surgeon able to make anyone beautiful if they used his special masks. The masks gave his customers the face of the famous model Mizuzu Shiratori, who happened to be a childhood friend of Mai's. But the masks actually were explosive control devices that let Maskuder control the wearers and detonate them when he broke the mask he wore, which was his central gold face. Under the gold mask he wore was a single eye. Maskuder could also cause explosions on command.
  • The Moja (モジャ, Moja, 34): A species of other dimensional creatures that Gigaro gave to several children in the guise of a salesman, with the instructions that if they started to act up, to hit them with a special stick he gave them. But the stick causes the Moja to become fierce creatures that absorbed the consciousness of the one who hits them. The creatures then eventually gathered together and transformed into the moth-headed monster Mojanga (モジャンガ, Mojanga). Mojanga could also breathe fire in battle. The children's consciousness was trapped inside Mojanga, seeing the outside world. Though the children tried to urge the B-Fighters to fight, Mojanga could bring about exactly the reverse of what the consciousnesses trapped inside him said. Eventually Daisaku managed to get inside Mojanga's body and freed the children.
  • Gagamoth (ガガモス, Gagamosu, 36, 52-53): At first it was an energy-sucking caterpillar monster, but it metamorphosized into a red moth monster when it absorbed the Beet Ingram's power. In this form, its right and left arms end transformed into duplicates of the Input Magnum and Stinger Blade respectively. It was, soon after, the first to be destroyed by the newly born Super Blue Beet. Gagamoth's first form was later revived by Jagul to fight the B-Fighters.
  • Rasbelga (ラズベルガ, Razuberuga, 38): A monster created from the fictional "Rasbel" flower, a carnivorous plant that could move on its' own and feed on small animals. Although almost invincible, Rasbelga's only weakness was the fruit of a tree discovered by Sayuri, an old girlfriend of Mukai's, which made him spit out the people he swallowed & robbed him of his pollen spray so he could be defeated. In battle, aside from spraying pollen, it could also launch vines from inside of its' mouth and strangle enemies. Mukai went to stop, Rasbelga by donning a bulky armor, calling himself "Mukaider K-3", though the armor fell apart gradually as he fought. Despite this, Mukai's actions enabled Blue Beet to help G-Stag and Reddle, who were stuck within Rasbelga's stomach, to break free and finish the monster with Blue Beet's Stinger Drill.
  • Hellsgyra (ヘルズガイラ, Heruzugaira, Movie): A monster whose body was covered in bony plates. He could also control the bones that lay strewn around his island, extending them and using them to capture the B-Fighters. Hellsgyra was beaten by the combined powers and strength of Drago and Blue Beet.

Combat-Robot Army

Led by Schwartz, the Combat-Robot Army (戦闘ロボット軍団, Sentō Robotto Gundan) is composed of combat robots.

  • Hammer Kong (ハンマコング, Hanma Kongu, 3, 30): A silver and gold robot with giant hammers on his hands and a head in the shape of a hammer head with the striking surface being his face. He could pound his hammer hands on the ground to create explosive shockwaves (Hammer Crush), or toss them like giant boomerangs. He could also fire an energy beam from his one eye & spit giant nails to pin his enemies to the wall. He was destroyed by Reddle's Tornado Spark. Later was revived but killed in a suicide attempt on Reddle.
  • Death Launcher (デスランチャー, Desu Ranchā, 4, 30): A green robot with missile launchers on his shoulders and gun batteries on his wrists, which were his major weapons. He was destroyed by the Beetle Break.
  • Gamerio (ガメリオ, Gamerio, 7, 30): A black camera-based robot with a lens on his chest and eyes that looked like flashbulbs. Gamerio disguised himself as a photographer, and when he took pictures of people they were transported to a Jamahl slave quarry to work for Jamahl. His transport could be interfered with by high-frequency sound waves, such as those emitted by a dog whistle. Later was revived, but killed by Reddle.
  • Ikari-Bomber (イカリボンバ, Ikaribonba, 11): A walking purple hand grenade with arms and legs and blue and green camouflage markings. When he got mad, his arms and legs folded in so that he looked like a giant grenade, the meter on the left side of his head went into the red zone, the pin on his head flew off and he exploded with tremendous power. He was destroyed when Reddle used the Wire Hand with the Magnet Attachment to pick up Ikari-Bomber off the ground, and blown up by the Beetluder and Stagger Tank's guns. He was eventalluy rebuilt as Ikari-Bomber 2 (イカリボンバ2, Ikaribonba Tsū, 27), with a new orange-colored body and slightly different head. Ikari Bomber 2 was now able to self-explode and self-repair. However, during a battle at a junkyard, he accidentally incorpated a hair clipper into his body, which grafted itself onto his left hand. Overcome by the hair clipper's desire to cut hair and to get back at those who had discarded it when it was still usable, Ikari-Bomber went on a rampage, shaving people's heads. He kept being blown up and coming back together until finally the B-Fighters destroyed his remains one by one to hinder his self-repair ability.
  • Gagamirror (ガガミラー, Gagamirā, 13): A white robot with a domelike head and a rounded chest that could open up into a large mirror, and anyone whose reflection he captured in the mirror could be trapped inside, and Gagamirror could assume their shape. He sucked Takuya into his mirror and disguised himself as Takuya to infiltrate the Juukou Base, but Rei realized his identity when Gagamirror stepped on flowers as he took a young boy who Takuya knew to see the Beetmachines (earlier, Takuya went as far as swerving and breaking in the Beetluder to avoid hitting some flowers). Killed by the Beetle Break.
  • Dangar (ダンガー, Dangā, 25, 30): A blue robot with red circles on his chest, elbows, and shoulders, and black spikes on his arms, legs, and head. Dangar's mission was to eliminate the escapee Lala, who had been forced to help build the Death Gaohm, a super-cannon that could destroy an entire country in one blast, but had run away. Lala was actually a scientist from the Aroa dimension and although she fell in love with Takuya, she returned home after Dangar and the Death Gaohm were destroyed. Later was revived, but killed by G-Stag.
  • Macho No.5 (マッチョNo.5, Matcho Nanbā Faibu, 41): Schwartz's older brother, though Schwartz actually built him with his own two mechanical hands. He was a muscular robot with blue and white armor plating and a face/faceplate like Schwartz's. He was injured in a battle with the B-Fighters, however, mostly to save him, Schwartz entered Macho's head to pilot him personally. The two together were a formidable enemy, and Macho's final plan to get rid of the B-Fighter was a self-destruct switch he had installed in himself. He activated it and planned to take out the B-Fighter with him when he exploded, and so he told Schwartz to get out of his body. Schwartz refused, since they were brothers. But seconds before his death, Macho ejected Schwartz for his little brother's own safety. The only bit of remains Schwartz found later, was Macho's eyepiece which he took as a memento of his brother. He vowed to his brother he would defeat the B-Fighters for him.

Others

  • Training Robots (2, 36): The B-Fighters were testing their newly acquired powers on three robotic drones and practicing their guns' special beams. The robots were quickly destroyed. These robots were recycled from previous Metal Hero shows, one of which was a Janperson monster.
  • Death Mult (デスマルト, Desumaruto, 17, 30): Originally one of Jera's soldiers, he was defeated by the B-Fighters easily. After this, Jera retrieved his body and decided to bring him back to life and make him a combination of all three monster army types. Though he still resembled himself, his armor was now red. Gigaro provided a scorpion's tail and wings while Schwartz added built-in shoulder cannons. Death Mult proved able to defeat the B-Fighter until the three generals started arguing about which feature he should use to attack and kill them. Death Mult was stalled by the conflicting orders, enough time for the B-Fighters to defeat him. He was later resurrected by Gaohm to exterminate the B-Fighters and Sinbad. He was destroyed again by Sinbad. Death Mult was later revived/absorbed by Jagul in the series finale.
  • Babanba (ババンバ, Babanba, 32): At first, an old woman in a brown kimono with a brown cloth over her head and a wooden cask on her back. She could suck people inside the cask, which she used to turn them into pickles which she sold to creatures in other dimensions. She later revealed her true form, a demonic creature that could sprout and attack with claws and fangs during battle. Babamba was not truly evil, however, and although Jera tried to trick her into fighting the B-Fighters, an old man who had befriended her convinced her that she didn't need to fight anymore. She decided to stay in this dimension with him, and shattered her cask, freeing the people inside.
  • Nero (ネロ, Nero, 37): A so-called bodyguard from another dimension who wore cowboyish attire. He appeared during a fight and offered Jera his services, but in the fight he missed the B-Fighters and escaped back to Jamahl for his pay. Later, he approached the B-Fighters and claimed that he was just trying to infiltrate Jamahl so he could take out Gaohm, and if they paid him he would do just that. Mai believed him and scrounged up enough to pay him. Nero was planning to take the money from both sides and leave this dimension, when Mai found out that he had Jamahl money. Jera also appeared, having discovered his secret, and Jera impaled Nero. Meanwhile, Mai had scanned Nero's gun and found out that it was designed to miss. Nero hated war, and never meant to kill anyone. He died after telling Mai to end the fight quickly, because war is a terrible thing.
  • Figer (ファイガ, Faiga, 39): A legendary fire-breathing cat monster that was fossilized and unable to move. Gigaro had Schwartz use a youth-restoring machine to bring back Figer, but Schwartz set it too high and the Faigar that came out was a child who would breathe fire towards anyone around him, including Gigaro. While trying to stop it, Blue Beet tackled Figer and was hit by residual youth energy that was in it, turning Takuya into a child. Gigaro and Schwartz eventually recaptured Figer with candy so they can place Figer back into the machine to age it to a more dangerous age, but overdid it and the Figer that came out this time was blackened and burnt. Blue Beet also used this chance to restore his own age, then destroyed Figer with the Super Final Blow.
  • Giga-Tsukinowa (ギガツキノワ, Giga Tsukinowa, 42): The spirit of a bear who was hunted and destroyed in the mountains. Gigaro, who felt a common bond, rekindled Giga-Tsukinowa's hatred of man and made him a blood-thirsty monster whom Gigaro used for his "B-Fighter Hunt". Captured a young friend of Mai, though it appeared to show signs of compassion upon seeing a teddy bear that the young girl had with her. Eventually defeated by the team.

Trivia

  • Like many Tokusatsu, B-Fighter had its share of alumni actors:
    • Daisuke Tsuchiya (Takuya) and Keisuke Tsuchiya (Shadow) are twin brothers. In previous projects, Keisuke played Kazu/Kirin Ranger in Gosei Sentai Dairanger while his brother guest-starred as a clone of Kazu. The two also worked as twin ninjas, Tarou & Jirou, in Ninja Sentai Kakuranger.

  • In many of the episode previews, action footage lacks any animated effects which were added to the final footage, thus showing unfinished shots of characters disappearing, being pulled away while sparks shoot out (later an animated "beam" was added to many of these scenes) and other areas of unfinished footage.
  • Throughout the series it used some recycled music from Kamen Rider BLACK and Black RX with episodes 49-51 & 53 having music from ZO as well as recycled footage from RX in a few episodes, While the Movie featured Recycled music From RX, ZO and J. Jiro Okamoto, Who was the suit actor for Black Beet was also in the same roll for the 4 Riders as well as Shin.
