Members of Space Empire Zangyack: (from left) Barizorg, Waruzu Giru and Damarasu.

The Space Empire Zangyack (宇宙帝国ザンギャック, Uchū Teikoku Zangyakku, [Note 1]) are the fictional antagonists of the thirty-fifth Super Sentai Series Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, that battle the Gokaigers in order to invade and conquer the Earth.

Fictional history

Zangyack's forces are a race of aliens who have conquered several planets across the galaxy and plan to invade Earth for their emperor. The first invasion failed due to the interference of 34 Super Sentai teams in the Legend War (レジェンド大戦, Rejendo Taisen). The second, current, invasion is being overseen by the emperor's son Waruzu Giru from his chariot-like flagship Gigant Horse (ギガントホース, Giganto Hōsu), stationed between Earth and its moon, with an armada at his command.

The currency of the Zangyack Empire is the Zagin (ザギン, Z=), which is how the bounties on the Gokaigers are measured.

Waruzu Giru

Commandant Waruzu Giru (司令官ワルズ・ギル, Shireikan Waruzu Giru) is the young commander of the Zangyack invasion forces who is the emperor's son, thus attempting to earn his father's respect while showing himself as one of elite status. This gives him a paranoid attitude, making Waruzu Giru frequently hysterical when his missions are failures. He usually responds by erasing his mistakes to cover his tracks and lashing out at Damarasu. Eventually, Waruzu Giru learns of the Greatest Treasure the Gokaigers are looking for and believes it to be of little consequence, to the point of ignoring it to Damarasu's dismay. However, after an invasion he personally oversees is called off by his followers after a stray shot from Gokai Red wounds his left arm, a furious Waruzu Giru vows to kill the Gokaigers with extreme prejudice for his injury.[1]

Waruzu Giru is voiced by Hirofumi Nojima (野島 裕史, Nojima Hirofumi).

Damarasu

Chief of Staff Damarasu (参謀長ダマラス, Sanbōchō Damarasu) is known among Zangyack as the "Strongest High Ranked Soldier" (最強格の戦士, Saikyōkaku no Senshi) due to his skills as a warrior and as a strategist. He is ordered to accompany Waruzu Giru by the Emperor and assist him as his second in command, questioning his decisions if he feels that he needs to. Unlike the others, Damarasu expresses curiosity on why the Gokaigers are even on Earth and uses the Sneak Brothers to learn the pirates' intentions on Earth. However, though he believes crippling the Gokaigers' chances of unlocking their Ranger Keys should be a priority, his suggestion is ignored.[2]

Damarasu is voiced by Kōji Ishii (石井 康嗣, Ishii Kōji).

Insarn

File:Insarn.jpg
Insarn

Development Technical Officer Insarn (開発技官インサーン, Kaihatsu Gikan Insān) is Zangyack's evil scientist, supplying the Action Commanders with powerful weapons and modifications and able to fight with an energy whip. Using a special gun-shaped controller, she normally fires the Gigant Horseʼs enlargement cannons to resurrect defeated Action Commanders and make them grow giant. She rarely appears on Earth save when she falls in love with Kyousuke Jinnai and causes a series of bizarre events that end with her love redirected to Action Commander Jerashid until his defeat by Shinken Gokaioh and asked for him to be jettisoned. Her distain toward Jerashid grew after finding him living with humans to the point of utter disgust.[3]

Insarn is voiced by Kikuko Inoue (井上 喜久子, Inoue Kikuko).

Barizorg

Special Duty Officer Barizorg (特務士官バリゾーグ, Tokumu Shikan Barizōgu) is a cyborg whose whole body is mechanized and completely loyal to Waruzu Giru. He speaks very little other than saying, "Yes, boss," to Waruzu Giru's orders. He was originally Sid Bamick (シド・バミック, Shido Bamikku), a senior officer and Joe's comrade while he was with the Zangyack. However, when he committed treason against the Zangyack by freeing the imprisoned Joe and covering his escape, Sid was converted by the Zangyack scientist Zaien into his current form with his pre-cyborg memories and personality erased save for his swordsmanship. Though he learns the truth about himself, Barizorg's programming makes him consider the new information to be of no importance.[4]

Barizorg is voiced by Gaku Shindo (進藤 学, Shindō Gaku), who previously portrayed the Eagle Sazer Ad in Chousei Kantai Sazer-X. Shindo also portrays Sid Bamick.

Zugormin

The Zugormin Non-Commissioned Officers (下士官スゴーミン, Kashikan Sugōmin) are the officers who lead the Gormin to battle and support the Action Commanders.[5] They can transform into jet fighter configurations that link up into a hovercraft for an Action Commander to ride on, and can reconfigure their lower bodies into motorcycle forms.

The Zugormin are voiced by Yoshimitsu Shimoyama (下山 吉光, Shimoyama Yoshimitsu, 1), Kenichiro Matsuda (松田 健一郎, Matsuda Kenichirō, 10), Yasuaki Takumi (内匠 靖明, Takumi Yasuaki, 10), and Kensuke Tamura (田村 健亮, Tamura Kensuke, 12).

Gormin

The Gormin Sailors (兵隊ゴーミン, Heitai Gōmin) are footsoldiers of Zangyack armed with weapons provided by Insarn. They are dropped from Zangyack ships through chandelier-like devices that magnetically hold them by their flat, metallic heads.[6]

Action Commanders

However, he is unaware that Waruzu Giru had Insarn plant a bomb on the collar while making it look like a modification, thus becoming unknowing suicide bomber to eliminate the Gokaigers.

Free Joker

The crew of the Free Joker (フリージョーカー, Furī Jōkā), consisting of Basco and Sally, are privateers hired by Zangyack.

Basco ta Jolokia's true form with Sally at his side

Basco ta Jolokia (バスコ・タ・ジョロキア, Basuko ta Jorokia, [Note 2]) is an overconfident privateer hired by the Zangyack Empire whose code of conduct is to discard something of lesser value to gain something more valuable. Originally having a Z=3 million bounty on his head, Basco was one of the most dangerous pirates in the cosmos. Assuming a human guise, Basco joined the Red Pirates under Aka Red. As the Gokai Galleon's cook, Basco befriended Marvelous, whom he affectionately calls "Mabe-chan" (マベちゃん), as they gather the Ranger Keys before he betrays his comrades to the Zangyack in order to get the Ranger Keys and the Greatest Treasure for himself.

Though he lost the Gokai Treanger Box to his former shipmate, Basco managed to get the Ranger Keys of Super Sentai's sixth members (which include heroes such as Dragon Ranger, Abare Killer, the Go-on Wings, and Gosei Knight). He uses a trumpet-like device called the Rapparatta (ラッパラッター, Rapparattā) to conjure them to fight for him, though he risks losing the Ranger Keys if that they are defeated. The Rapparatta can also be used to forcefully rob greater powers still dormant within any past Sentai warrior. In addition, Basco carries a gold-colored Mobirate, which bears his personal symbol instead of that of the Gokaigers with the keyhole sealed shut.

Arriving to Earth after being contacted by Damarasu, Basco uses his Ranger Keys in a scheme to kidnap Captain Marvelous's crew, holding them at ransom to get the remaining Ranger Keys. But the plan backfires as Captain Marvelous and his crew are able to defeat and claim the other Ranger Keys. However, while hunting down Hyuuga in the Ginga Forest, Basco reveals that he has more Ranger Keys in his possession that represent the Sentai teams' supporting warriors (including Signalman, Zuuban, Rio, and Princess Shinken Red). He fails to acquire the greater power of the Gingaman and GoGoFive teams, later losing his remaining Ranger Keys to the Gokaigers in his attempt to get the greater power of the Ohrangers. In retaliation, Basco reveals his true monstrous form and fights the Gokaigers, defeating them soundly and revealing that he has the greater powers of the Changemen, Flashmen, and Maskmen. He lets the defeated Gokaigers live so that they can keep collecting the remaining greater powers, as he intends to take the powers for his own when the time comes.

Basco ta Jolokia is portrayed by Kei Hosogai (細貝 圭, Hosogai Kei).

Sally

Sally (サリー, Sarī) is Basco ta Jolokia's pet space monkey, carrying a pair of cymbals much like a cymbal-banging monkey toy. Other than serving as a bodyguard to Basco, Sally is able to open up a hatch on its chest to produce a Giant Battle Pseudo-Lifeform.

Sally is voiced by Toru Omura (大村 亨, Ōmura Tōru).

Giant Battle Pseudo-Lifeforms

Giant Battle Pseudo-Lifeforms (巨大戦闘擬似生命体, Kyodai Sentō Giji Seimeitai) are giants produced by Sally. Each Pseudo-Lifeforms model is named after a different element. Each is voiced by Ibuki (勇吹輝).[35][36][37]

  • Liquidroid Wateru (リキッドロイド ワテル, Rikiddoroido Wateru): A blue colored liquid-based giant produced after Basco loses his remaining sixth hero Ranger Keys to the Gokaigers. It has a flexible body and stretching arms while using electricity-based attacks. Destroyed by Shinken Gokaioh.[38]
  • Moonroid Tsukki (ムーンロイド ツッキー, Mūnroido Tsukkī): A gold colored moonrock-based giant produced after Basco's summoned warriors are defeated by the Gokaigers in his attempt to get the Gingamens' greater power failed. It has a rock hard body and uses moon-based attacks. Destroyed by Shinken Gokaioh and Goujyujin.[39]
  • Fireroid Meran (ファイヤーロイド メラン, Faiyāroido Meran): A red colored fire-based giant produced after Basco's summoned warriors are defeated by the Gokaigers in his attempt to get the GoGoFive's greater power failed.

Other antagonists

  • Los Dark (ロスダーク, Rosu Dāku): Primary antagonist of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger the Movie: The Flying Ghost Ship. The undead captain of a ghost ship who seeks the God Eye's power to make his desires a reality. He pilots an imitation of Gokaioh called Fake Gokaioh (にせゴーカイオー, Nise Gōkaiō). Voiced by Kenji Utsumi (内海 賢二, Utsumi Kenji).
  • Kiaido (キアイドー, Kiaidō): Kiaido is the strongest bounty hunter in the universe, and believes that only two things truly matter: money and battle. Kiaido came across Captain Marvelous several years ago and nearly killed him, but he intentionally stabbed himself in the chest to create a weak spot in order to make the fight more interesting, ultimately letting Captain Marvelous escape. He is hired by Barizorg to eliminate the Gokaigers, but Kiaido refuses to follow the orders and instead wants the bounty on the Gokaigers' heads to increase even more, spreading of a rumor that they managed to evade his capture, while they get stronger so he can ultimately deliver the fatal blow with satisfaction. However, with Gai Yuki's help, the Gokaigers manage to defeat Kiaido through the greater power of the Jetmen.[41] Voiced by Tomokazu Sugita (杉田 智和, Sugita Tomokazu).
