Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger

Bakuryuu Sentai Abarenjaa (Translation: Explosive Dragon Task Force Outburst Ranger) was Toei Company Limited's 27th production of the Super Sentai television series.

Plot

Scientists believe that 65,000,000 years ago, a meteorite's crash on Earth killed off the dinosaurs, but in truth, it split Earth into two parallel universes: The Earth we know and an Earth where dinosaurs were still the superior species (Dino Earth), eventually evolving into the Bakuryuu (Blast Dragon) race. The two Earths were separated until Asuka, AbareBlack, arrived on Earth via a transdimensional portal. But he was followed by evil Evorians in the spaceship Anamolicarus & the three Bakuryuu under their control. As Bakuryuu Tyrannosaur attacked Tokyo, a call was sent out to three destined ones who possessed Dino Guts to gain the powers to tame the three beasts. Together with their Bakuryuu partners, the three become Abarangers to protect their dimension from the Evorians.

Characters

AbaRangers

When they evoke their "Dino GUTS", The AbaRangers tap into the power of their dinosaur partners, obtaining their strength and power as their own.

• Ryouga Hakua/AbareRed: The optimistic team leader, a certified environmental protection investigator from the US. Though he's overly confident, he has an extremely good nature and is friendly, warm hearted, and loving; he doesn't hate anyone. His Bakuryuu partner is Tyranno. He eventally gained the power to become AbareMax.

• Yukito Sanjyou (Kenny Yukito)/AbareBlue: A charismatic chiropractor, he'll help with any kind of injury but charge outrageously high prices for it. He seems cold, but has a kind heart underneath. His Bakuryuu partner is Kera.

• Ranru Itsuki/AbareYellow: A tech whiz who owns a German BD-1 motorcycle she nicknamed "Birdie". All she really wants is peace. Her Bakuryuu partner is Ptera.

• Asuka/AbareBlack: A warrior from DinoEarth with a sad past. He was the last of people to fight the Evoliens and escaped to Earth. His Bakuyuu partner is Brachio.

• Mikoto Nakadai/AbareKiller: A lunatic doctor who was observing the AbaRangers from the time the Bakuryuu first appeared. He gained the DinoMinder and with it the Zerogo suit, which was due to self-destruct sometime soon. He didn't seem to care that he would die, taking the entire city with him. He fought the AbaRangers & his Bakuryuu partner is TopGaler. After fighting the Killer Giganoid with the AbaRanger, after TopGaler betrated him, he joined the team, even if it cost him his life. When Dino Minder began to self-destruct, he and TopGaler flew away from Earth and died in the explosion. He returned for a short time to help the Aba & DekaRanger in "Dekaranger vs. Abaranger" however.

Allies

• Emily Imanaka: Imanaka is a high school student. When the Bakuryuu first came to earth, Imanaka heard their call and almost became AbareYellow.

• Ryunnosuke Sugishita: Sugishita runs a curry restaurant: DinoHouse, which is the Abarangers' base of operations. When the Bakuryuu first came to earth, Sugishita heard their call and almost became AbareBlue. Unfortunately, his body was unable to support the transformation.

Bakuryuu/Blast Dragons

Giant Beasts from DinoEarth that evolved from the dinosaurs, they had a mutual friendship with the Ryuujin (Dragon people of Dino Earth) until the Evorians attacked.

Evorians

The Wicked Fate Clan, they came from Dino Earth. They dwelled within a castle-like structure before Dezumzorlya turned into a giant cyclops-like host to battle the Bakuryuu with while transferring itself into Geildon. The fortress was destroyed when the Abaranger's dinosaurs sacrificed themselves to destroy it.

• Dezumozorlya: The Evorian god, a parasitic enity that was held in the metorite that crashed to Earth. When Earth was split, Dezumorlya's essence was divided between the two earths, and took one being of each world as it's host and it's descendants. Some of his hosts have wreaked havoc throughout the course of human history. In the time of Abaranger, Mikoto held the essence of the inactive Earth-counterpart, and the Dezumozorlya of DinoEarth found a host in Rije. When he was purged from Rijewel, Dezumozorlya sought stronger hosts until he chose Geildon as his ideal vessel.

• Rije/Rijewel: She is Dezumozorlya's child-like metaron, responsible for linking the two worlds. She was originally the daughter of Asuka & Mahoro until the Dino-Earth Dezumozorlya entered Mahoro's body & made the preborn Kasumi its host. She was forcegrown into an adult, Rijewel, to tempt Mikoto to join her and later mutated into DezumoRijewel. Through the combined power of all five AbaRanger, Kasumi 'overpowered' Dezumozoryla and Rijewel was restored to an infant once Dezumozorlya was removed from her.

• Jannu: She was originally a Dragonoid named Mahoro and was Asuka's love, but she was parasitized by the Evorians. Because of her previous life, Jannu had a fixation on killing Asuka. She eventally returned to normal, though Mahoro posed as her to help the Abaranger from the enemy camp until Dezumozorlya learned of her treachery.

• DezumoVoorla(Eps 47-48): The 3rd host of Dezumozorlya, used to asborb the Earth-Dezumoryla from AbareKiller's body.

• • Mikela: The one who who creates the Torinoids. He is a painter and hates to make a creation when uninspired by his muse. He despises humans and their culture. He and Voffa ended up being merged as one host for Dezumozorlya at the end of the series.

• • Voffa: He enlarges the Torinoids and creates the giant Giganoids from musical compositions from his harp. He and Mikela ended up being merged as one host for Dezumozorlya at the end of the series.

• Geildon: The first of the Evorians to attack Earth, but was killed by Jannu after failing in his mission. It would later turn out that it was a cursed suit of armor that bonded with Mahoro's older brother, Mizuho. Geildon was also worn by Asuka two times, who lost himself due to the cursed armor's power. By the finale, Geildon was transformed into Dezumogevarus, the final host of Dezumozorlya.
