Their surname bears the number of corners (or in Momo and Juri case a circle which has no corners and the = was just two lines) of their visor's shape, except for Gorou's whose surname reflects the shape of his visor (which is a star). Together, they fight the Machine Empire Baranoia.

Other U.A.O.H. Members

Miura

Chief Councilor Naoyuki Miura (三浦 尚之 Miura Naoyuki?) is the Ohrangers' commander, a dedicated leader who refuses to give up no matter what. An anthropologist and scientist as well, he used his knowledge about ancient civilizations and technologies to create all the Ohrangers' arsenal and mecha, as well as their suits. He once defeated a Baranoia Soldier with his bare hands after a UAOH soldier couldn't do it with a gun.

Miura is portrayed by veteran tokusatsu actor Hiroshi Miyauchi (宮内 洋 Miyauchi Hiroshi?).

Allies

Dorin

Dorin (ドリン Dorin?, 26-31, 36, 42, 46-48) is a girl of Pangaea who was found sleeping inside King Pyramider. It's discovered that she is an important part of the Super Force in Earth and Riki is assignated to her care. Was killed by Multiwa but revived in the finale. She has a green pet lizard named Paku (パク Paku?).

Gunmazin

Gunmazin (ガンマジン Ganmajin?, 37, 38, 40, 41, 44 & 48, Ohranger vs. Kakuranger) is an ancient warrior known for his honor and courage. Imprisoned within the form of a tiny tiki, the only way to unlock his power is by placing a key into his forehead and reciting the magic words "Ganma Ganma Dondoko Ganma" (ガンマガンマ ドンドコガンマ Ganma Ganma Dondoko Ganma?). For some reason, the key always ended up in the hands of a child and everyone knew the magic words after hearing them. When awakened, Gunmazin would grant a single wish to his discoverer as long as it didn't mean harm to anyone. There were times in which he simply didn't like the wish and refused to grant it or punished his awakener for lying to him. Gunmazin possessed the Mazin Saber (マジンサーベル Majin Sāberu?) through which he focused his power into the Majin One Sword Style (マジン一刀流 Majin Ittō Ryū?) of Majin One Sword Fencing (Fire, Lightning, Wind and Blinding Light). His back can act as a shield to defend himself and others (even King Pyrammider's beam). In the series finale, he took Acha, Kocha, and Buldont, Jr. to his care. In Ohranger vs. Kakuranger, he is revealed to be terrified of Youkai (monsters fought by the Kakurangers).

Moa Roader forms the right Foot Mode and the Cannon Head (キャノンヘッド Kyanon Heddo?).

Ohranger Robo is a unique robot because of its interchangeable "Helmets", one for each of the five separate vehicles, with one core member positioning himself/herself on the center cockpit usually switching his/her place with Oh Red depending on whose vehicle is being used as helmet.

The default Wing Head mode used the Super Crown Sword (スーパークラウンソード Sūpā Kuraun Sōdo?) for its Crown Final Crash (クラウンファイナルクラッシュ Kuraun Fainaru Kurasshu?), Chōriki Crown Sword Shoot, and Chōriki Crown Spark Shield attacks.

When Baranoia begins its invasion, the Red Puncher was piloted by an UAOH soldier named Kinosuke, played by Ryohei Kobayashi. However, unable to control it, Kinosuke died as Red Puncher is buried under boulders as a result of its berserker rage. When Bara Builder damaged Ohranger Robo, Gorou found where Red Puncher was buried and managed to gain control. Arrives by the command "Red Puncher, come!". Armed with the Puncher Gatling (パンチャーガトリング Panchā Gatoringu?) and Magna Puncher (マグナパンチャー Maguna Panchā?).

King Pyramider

King Pyramider (キングピラミッダー Kingu Piramiddā?) is King Ranger's mecha, with Riki and Dorin placed in supended animation until King Pyramider returns to Earth several millennia later. It is a massive Pyramid that can cloak itself until summoned by King Ranger. King Pyramidder's true power can be seen when it convert to either Carrier Formation (キャリアフォーメーション Kyaria Fōmēshon?) or to a gigantic robot, Battle Formation (バトルフォーメーション Batoru Fōmēshon?) and is able to carry either the Super-Power Mobiles or Oh Blocker, as well as the Red Puncher. The finisher for the Battle Formation is the Super Legend Beam (スーパーレジェンドビーム Sūpā Rejendo Bīmu?) barrage. It transforms into either form whenever the commands "King Pyramider, Carrier Formation!" or "King Pyramider, Battle Formation!" are given. The bases of the left and right sides become the arms, the black section of the front becomes the feet as the legs are revealed, and the back side shows a black pyramid that becomes the head (the lower half of the front side shows the face).

Oh Blocker

Super-Heavy Combination Oh Blocker (超重合体オーブロッカー Chōjū Gattai Ō Burokkā?) is made up of the second set of mecha that the UAOH created, the Blocker Robos (ブロッカーロボ Burokkā Robo?) that come at the command "Blocker Robos, launch!". Red Blocker forms Oh Blocker's body. Green Blocker forms Oh Blocker's lower legs. Blue Blocker forms Oh Blocker's waist and upper legs. Yellow Blocker forms Oh Blocker's head, shoulders, and arms. Pink Blocker forms Oh Blocker's feet.

Each individual Blocker Robo can wield giant-sized versions of the Battle Stick and King Blaster, and the Ohranger's main weapons.

In the finale, Oh Blocker is captured by Baranoia, but it is freed by Gunmazin, and is piloted by King Ranger.

It converts to a massive wheel (the back of the wheel is the feet, which reveals the head, and the sides are the arms).
