Special Police Dekaranger

Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger (from left to right: Deka Master, Deka Blue, Deka Yellow, Deka Break, Deka Red, Deka Pink, Deka Green, and Deka Swan)

Special Police Dekaranger (スペシャル・ポリス・デカレンジャー Supesharu Porisu Dekarenjā, S.P.D.) is a police force who make sure that all aliens abide by intergalactic laws, and has advanced extraterrestrial technology at its disposal, giving its officers suits made out of Deka Metal that make them Dekarangers. The center of the Space Police is the Space Prosecution Office on Gowashichoru. Due to the Sion Morse time flow around the planet being faster than the rest of the universe, an eight-month trial on Gowashichoru last ten seconds in Earth time and the Dekarangers can use their SPD Arms to project a criminal's image to Gowashichoru for the Space Prosecution Office's verdict which is usually immediate execution if the crime is severe enough.

Dekarangers

All the Dekarangers almost never use their real names in the show and use nicknames instead. The six main Dekarangers have name puns where their first names are based on different types of tea while their last names are based on mystery/crime genre authors.

Banban Akaza

Nicknamed "Ban" (バン), Banban Akaza/Deka Red (赤座 伴番/デカレッド Akaza Banban/Deka Reddo) was training in space until he was assigned to the Earth unit. He has a chaotic, but fiercely loyal and friendly personality and also the leader of the team. However, in the Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, Ban is significantly more mature and does not seem to be as fiery as he was before. It took a while before he gained Hoji's trust, often irritating him by calling him aibō (相棒?) , the Japanese word for "buddy", "pal", or "partner". His number is 1.

Ban uses a space martial arts technique called Juu Kune Do (ジュウクンドー Jū Kun Dō, modeled on Jeet Kune Do)[lower-alpha 1] when he blends his martial arts skills with his gunfire. Ban rides in Machine Doberman with Jasmine when patrolling. In the "Girls in Trouble! Dekaranger" and "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequences, Ban plays drums in the Dekaranger band. In the series finale, Ban joined the SPD Fire Squad as a new elite officer. In Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, Ban returns to help his old team on a few occasions: First when Jasmine gets kidnapped though he's on the search for Agent X at the time, then the first invasion of the Zangyack Empire, and clearing Kruger's name in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After. During his time with Fire Squad, he gained an upgrade called Battlize Mode, where the modified Murphy becomes a suit of armor and powerful sword for him to use in the fight.

In both of the crossovers, Ban notably had initial trouble in getting along with the red ranger members Ryoga Hakua and Kai Ozu from the Abaranger and Magiranger teams at first, which led to an argument, until they bonded with him seeing how similar their goals were. Ban also called Kai aibō in the team-up, his affectionate term usually reserved for Hoji, much to the latter's annoyance. He has a crush on Marie Gold. In Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, there's implications of Ban and Mari being together. For one, Ban carries a Picture of Marie with him and Hoji asked him if Ban "popped the question" to her.

Ban's alternate catch phrase after transformation is, "Justice will win!" (正義は勝つ! Seigi wa katsu!). After deleting an Alienizer, Ban's ending catch phrase is "Japan's Megalopolis is the best!" (メガロポリスは日本晴れ! Megaroporisu wa nihon bare!).

Banban Akaza is portrayed by Ryuji Sainei (載寧 龍二 Sainei Ryūji).

Hoji Tomas

Nicknamed "Hoji" (ホージー Hōjī), Hoji Tomas/Deka Blue (戸増 宝児/デカブルー Tomasu Hōji/Deka Burū) is the most professional member of the team and second-in-command, Hoji tends to be arrogant of his skills, and is extremely stubborn. He also does not allow his emotions and personal life to interfere with his job as a detective. Prone to blurting out English phrases, his catchphrases are "Perfect!" and "Super cool!", commonly said after finishing a criminal. He also tends to say "Unbelievable!" at things out of the ordinary, and when shocked or dismayed has yelled "Oh my God!". His number is 2.

He is an excellent sniper with superb accuracy when shooting. He clashes with Ban from the beginning, but it is later revealed that Ban has replaced his commanding officer as Deka Red and Hoji has a hard time accepting it. He hates Ban even further as the latter constantly annoys him by calling him "aibō", but he soon warms up to Ban throughout the series, and eventually returns Ban's friendship. The two of them share noticeable relationship developments, and while they constantly have their fights and squabbles, it is obvious that they do care about each other deep down (refer to Episodes 42 and 43). Hoji plays keyboard in the Dekaranger band in the "Girls in Trouble! Dekaranger" and "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequences. At the end of the series, Hoji finally returns Ban's affection by calling him "aibō". During the teamup with the Magirangers however, Hoji becomes prominently annoyed and jealous when Ban announces Kai to be his new aibō and calls Hoji his moto aibō (元相棒?) , the Japanese word for "ex-partner".

In episode 37, Hoji is dating a Mikean named Teresa. However, it turns out that she is suffering from a rare disease and her younger brother Clord has been murdering young women as a means to find a cure for her. At the same time, Hoji is assigned to solve this particular case as the final test for his gold badge promotion from the Tokkyou division. In the end, his relationship with Teresa ends in tragedy, as he is given no choice but to delete Clord for his crimes. Despite solving the crime and passing the Tokkyou tests, Hoji ultimately refuses to accept his gold badge.

It is revealed in episode 42 that Hoji has a younger sister named Miwa (美和), who is getting married, but he refuses to attend her pre-wedding dinner - citing his duty as a Dekaranger being top priority. In the end, however, he manages to finally meet her fiance's family after the dinner. Like Hoji, Miwa also tends to speak English phrases during conversations.

Hoji Tomas is portrayed by Tsuyoshi Hayashi (林 剛史 Hayashi Tsuyoshi).

Senichi Enari

Nicknamed "Sen-chan" (センちゃん), Senichi Enari/Deka Green (江成 仙一/デカグリーン Enari Sen'ichi/Deka Gurīn) was born in a poor family as the oldest of seven siblings, he's the brains of the team with a remarkable ability to think things through. Oddly, he does his best thinking when he's upside down, calling this pose the "Thinking Pose". His number is 3.

He has a fear of dark, enclosed spaces that was caused by an incident of falling into a well when he was younger. He was rescued by a policeman, who inspired him to work for the police department. Sen usually maintains a calm, eccentric composure, but he is said to be pretty scary when he is angered. He mentions that he used to be a 'combi' with Gyoku Ryou as did Jasmine and Hoji and that they both used to argue with each other. But he forgot at first who Sen was which hurt his feelings quite a bit which led to Gyoku being punished by Umeko. In the "Girls in Trouble! Dekaranger" and "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequences, Sen plays bass guitar in the Dekaranger band. Has a bit of a crush on Umeko, but doesn't show it outright. By Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, he and Umeko are together. However he forgot about their date and she put him in a headlock.

Senichi Enari is portrayed by Yousuke Itou (伊藤 陽佑 Itō Yōsuke). As a child, he is portrayed by Kengo Tajima (田島 健吾 Tajima Kengo).

Marika Reimon

Nicknamed "Jasmine" (ジャスミン Jasumin), Marika Reimon/Deka Yellow (礼紋 茉莉花/デカイエロー Reimon Marika/Deka Ierō) is a psychic (ESPer), as she can pick up sensory impressions of others through handling an object or visiting a location her target has touched or been to, although she can get exhausted if she overuses them. Jasmine wears gloves to help control her powers when she doesn't need to use them. Her number is 4.

She's a calm, collected individual, though in the past considered suicide by letting an Alienizer kill her because of the depression her inability to control her powers had caused. However, she was rescued and recruited by Doggie at that moment. Jasmine is also tight friends with Umeko, forming an unbeatable tag-team called Twin Cam Angels (ツインカム・エンジェル Tsuin Kamu Enjeru). She used to ride in Machine Doberman with Ban during patrols, but in Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, Tetsu now drives with her. One of her known antics is nicknaming every Alienizer before a fight, and has even nicknamed the Abarangers and the Magirangers. In the "Girls in Trouble! Dekaranger" and "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequences, Jasmine plays electric guitar and shares lead vocals with Umeko in the Dekaranger band.

Jasmine delivers a larger sense of humor in the two VS. films she appears in. In Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger vs. Abaranger, after reading Ryoga's mind, she suddenly breaks out into dancing and singing the Abaranger ending theme. In Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, Jasmine breaks the fourth wall twice while being held captive with Magi Blue, first saying to the audience that Tetsu dressing like a woman was not very surprising, since he did it twice before, and asking the audience if she should say maji? (マジ??) , the Japanese word for "for real?". She also has shorter hair in the film than in the series. As revealed in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After, Jasmine married an older Hikaru and had a child with him. Furthermore, as a consequence of breast-feeding her child, Jasmine gains the ability to teleport herself to any part in the universe.

Marika Reimon is portrayed by Ayumi Kinoshita (木下 あゆ美 Kinoshita Ayumi). As a child, she is portrayed by Risa Asagi (浅黄 理紗 Asagi Risa).

Koume Kodou

Nicknamed "Umeko" (ウメコ), Koume Kodou/Deka Pink (胡堂 小梅/デカピンク Kodō Koume/Deka Pinku) rides the Machine Bull with Sen-chan and often is partnered up with him. She tends to be a ditz, but she has a good heart, and can often bring the team together under the most dire of circumstances with her perkiness. She spends every moment she can in a bubble bath with her three rubber ducks, whom she calls Umeyo, Umenosuke, and Umegoro. Her number is 5.

While Doggie Kruger is the leader of Earth's Dekarangers, Umeko claims to be the "field leader" of the team. She is a master of disguise and is able to instantly change outfits even in a bubble bath. Doggie gave her responsibility for Murphy, who was originally undisciplined to the point she put him into an arm bar. However, since then, she and Murphy became close, until Murphy was transferred to Fire Squad and reformatted to become Ban's Battlizer Mode. Umeko plays electric guitar and shares lead vocals with Jasmine in the Dekaranger band in the "Girls in Trouble! Dekaranger" and "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequences.

Umeko had been dating a man named Hironobu, but was heartbroken when she heard him bragging to Sen-chan about fooling women. Although she was angry at Sen-chan for suspecting Hironobu to be a criminal, she later realizes that she has feelings for him. By Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, she and Sen are together, so to speak; however, Sen had forgotten about their date, and angered her. As a result, she put Sen in a headlock. She also had a brief crush on Mikoto Nakadai in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger vs. Abaranger but though upset of having him return to the afterlife she had to accept his request of letting him go back.

Koume Kodou is portrayed by Mika Kikuchi (菊地 美香 Kikuchi Mika). Kikuchi also played a dual role in episode 31 as Princess Io Yonmerluicchi.

Tekkan Aira

Nicknamed "Tetsu" (テツ), Tekkan Aira/Deka Break (姶良 鉄幹/デカブレイク Aira Tekkan/Deka Bureiku) is a super elite from SPD's Tokkyou (特キョウ Tokkyō)[lower-alpha 2] division who was sent to Earth to fight the Three Hells Siblings. His number is 6, written as the Roman numeral VI.

An Alienizer named Genio killed Tetsu's parents when he was about five years old. Tetsu was raised by the Space Police off-planet. He pilots the Deka Bike. His catchphrase is "Nonsense!", which is said in English. His fighting style is Justice Fist Accel Blow (正拳アクセルブロー Seiken Akuseru Burō), a style of Kempo that all Tokkyou officers use when battling very deadly Alienizers and better handling the BraceThrottle. Initially, he was distant toward the other Dekarangers, but he becomes good friends with them. In addition, he treats Umeko like a baby sister. He also develops a strong friendship with Ban, calling him Senpai (先輩?) , and promptly replaces him as Jasmine's partner when Ban joins the Fire Squad. In "The Movie Version! Dekaranger" ending sequence, Tetsu plays keytar in the Dekaranger band.

In episodes 26 and 45, as well Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, Tetsu dressed up in drag to disguise himself. Normally, he has black hair, but in Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger, he dyed it light brown. Tetsu appeared in GoGo Sentai Boukenger vs. Super Sentai when he was investigating a case then Eiji Takaoka came in. Later on he is seen with Tsubasa Ozu, Nanami Nono, and Asuka as they aid Eiji in defeating Chronos. He transferred his "Justice Spirit" power to Aka Red to power DaiVoyager. In Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After, Tetsu becomes the new head of the Earth Branch after Kruger was framed and helped in clearing his name.

Tekkan Aira is portrayed by Tomokazu Yoshida (吉田 友一 Yoshida Tomokazu). As a child, he is portrayed by Yuta Komuro (小室 優太 Komuro Yūta).

Other SPD members

Doggie Kruger

Nicknamed "Boss" (ボス Bosu), Anubian Doggie Kruger/Deka Master (アヌビス星人ドギー・クルーガー/デカマスター Anubisu Seijin Dogī Kurūgā/Deka Masutā) is a superintendent of the Space Police's Metropolitan Police from Planet Anubis who is the chief of the Earth branch. He was a legend in his day as a Dekaranger, earning his other nickname, "Hell's Guard Dog" (地獄の番犬 Jigoku no Banken). Doggie is a tough leader and being honorable, he will do anything to save the ones he cares about. He has feelings for his assistant Swan, panicking whenever he hears that Swan has an admirer. He also occasionally assists the Dekarangers as Deka Master, wielding the powerful D-Sword Vega. His number is 100 (which comes from his ability to strike down 100 consecutive foes without defeat, as shown in episode 13).

His fighting style is Galaxy Sword-Style (銀河一刀流 Ginga Ittō-ryū), chosen by his mentor to learn the style's secret technique, Vega Impulse. It was revealed in Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger vs. Abaranger that Doggie suffers from a backbone problem which causes him to miss once in 2,000 attacks, which was cured by Yukito Sanjyo. Incidentally, Doggie is friends with Ryunosuke Sugishita who in turn, was friends with Miyuki Ozu. When Doggie, Swan, and Miyuki met, they all quickly became close friends when Miyuki attempted to entrust the two with the Heaven's Flower. Doggie also fought Wolzard for a short time, both proving to be evenly matched. His appearances in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger show that he is also friends with Signalman and Space Sheriff Gavan. In Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After, on a hunch, Kruger learned Kight Reidlich was selling intel to the mafia and finds himself mortally wounded while framed of murdering the mobsters and their hostage. After convincing the hostage's witness daughter to run, Kruger is heavily sedated for two years before Jasmine revives him. But Kruger was too weak at the time and only had enough strength to save his team from Kight Reidlich before giving DekaRed his sword. Soon afterm Kruger finally admits his feelings to Swan.

Doggie Kruger is voiced by Tetsu Inada (稲田 徹 Inada Tetsu).

Swan Shiratori

Cignian Swan Shiratori/Deka Swan (チーニョ星人 白鳥 スワン/デカスワン Chīnyo Seijin Shiratori Suwan/Deka Suwan) is Doggie's assistant from Planet Cigno, though Swan herself is half human. She's the one who provides the Dekarangers with their arsenal, and constantly amazes the others with her amazing intellect. Swan can transform into Deka Swan. Although she says it is her policy to only do it once every four years, in episode 49, she attempts to transform again when a Batsuroid breaks into her command center. It has been suggested that Doggie and Swan may be "more than just friends", but they both would hastily deny it. Her number is either 7, (which is represented by the geometrical figure of a heptagon instead of a number), or 99, (the heptagon vaguely resembles the character for "white" ( shiro), which is one stroke short of "100" ( hyaku)). Her last name, Shiratori, can also be read hakuchō (白鳥?, "swan") .

As Deka Swan, she can perform the Swan Illusion (スワンイリュージョン Suwan Iryūjon), a feather mist attack, and the Swan Rainbow (スワンレインボー Suwan Reinbō), a spinning kick which acts like a deletion attack.

Swan Shiratori is portrayed by Mako Ishino (石野 真子 Ishino Mako).

Marie Gold

Exclusive to Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger The Movie: Full Blast Action, Leslian Marie Gold/Deka Gold (レスリー星人マリー・ゴールド/デカゴールド Resurī Seijin Marī Gōrudo/Deka Gōrudo, Movie) arrived from Planet Leslie and had entered an alien's bar. She has the power to stop time for a short while. She had feelings for Ban. Her time transformed was very brief, as she was shot repeatedly after transforming, forcing her to power down. It was hinted in Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger that she and Ban are now in a relationship. Her number is 10, which is written as the Roman numeral X. Her name is a play on marigold.

Marie Gold is portrayed by Chiharu Niiyama (新山 千春 Niiyama Chiharu), while her singing voice performed by Sae (小枝).

Lisa Teagle

Lumierian Lisa Teagle/Deka Bright (リュミエル星人リサ・ティーゲル/デカブライト Ryumieru Seijin Risa Tīgeru/Deka Buraito) is the chief of the Tokkyou's first squad from Planet Lumiere and is Tetsu's mentor. Her number is 7, where the Roman numeral VII is rearranged stylistically as IVI. Her BraceThrottle has this same design, just as Tetsu has VI on his.

She trained Tetsu to be passionless and efficient; the kind of police officer most people think as the "perfect officer". All that was put in jeopardy when he came to Earth. She's on equal ground with Doggie and Swan, and could have taken Tetsu away with her, but decided against it after learning firsthand how passion can be a benefit for a Deka, rather than a hindrance.

Lisa Teagle is portrayed by Mie Nanamori (七森 美江 Nanamori Mie).

Murphy

Murphy K-9 (マーフィーK9 Māfī Kē Nain) is a mechanical dog used to track criminals and objects using his enhanced sense of smell. Murphy is known as the "latest model Ultra-Performance with A.I. and talented robot police dog". It can move extremely fast, and is loyal to his friends (especially Umeko), often detecting when they're in danger from great distances and running to assist.

When given the Key Bone, Murphy transforms into the D-Bazooka, a powerful weapon which can be used by the Dekarangers. Has a tendency to try to show dominance over Doggie by raising his leg and releasing coolant fluid on Doggie's feet. Prior to the Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger movie, Murphy was transferred to Fire Squad and modified to transform into a suit of armor for Deka Red in Battlizer Mode.

Numa-O

Horusian Numa-O (ホルス星人ヌマ・O Numa Ō) is the supreme commander of the entire SPD. from Planet Horus. He is on very good terms with both Doggie and Swan and is very professional with his job.

Numa-O is voiced by Kazuhiko Kishino (岸野 一彦 Kishino Kazuhiko).

Porupo

Octian Porupo (オクト星人ポルポ Okuto Seijin Porupo) is Ban's former instructor. He is ordered by Numa-O to transfer Ban to Earth, although he feels that Ban's reckless impulsiveness warrants him being thrown out of the force.

Porupo is voiced Issei Futamata (二又 一成 Futamata Issei).

Buntar

Tortorian Buntar (トート星人ブンター Tōto Seijin Buntā) is an old friend of Doggie's from Planet Torto and owns a mechanical dog named Clarence K-9 (クラレンスK9 Kurarensu Kē Nain). He trained the Dekarangers to assume SWAT Mode. He also stood in for Swan when she returned to Earth after an award gala, trying to think of a speech to say in her place.

Buntar is voiced by Naoki Kusumi (楠見 尚己 Kusumi Naoki).

Chou San

Teranian Chou San (テラン星人チョウ・サン Teran Seijin Chō San) is a veteran detective. He was seeking revenge on an Alienizer named Raja Namunan because he killed his daughter 13 years ago, but was never able to prove it. Jasmine showed him his errors of his ways while confirming his theory.

Chou San is voiced by Seizō Katō (加藤 精三 Katō Seizō).

Gyoku Rou

Leonian Gyoku Rou (レオン星人ギョク・ロウ Reon Seijin Gyoku Rō) was Ban's predecessor from Planet Leon. He was originally assigned as Deka Red for Earth, prior to the invention of the Deka Suits and Deka Machines, but badly injured his leg protecting Jasmine and Hoji from Terry X's assault, forcing him to retire. Shortly afterwards, he went underground, having been assigned by Numa-O to prepare an all Red Ranger elite team known as the Fire Squad (ファイヤースクワッド Faiyā Sukuwaddo).

He was later forced to come out of hiding by Ban after Terry X returned, and later successfully recruited Ban to his team, after becoming impressed with his successor's fiery passion and drive for crimefighting. Sen-chan had claimed that Gyoku and himself used to be a combo just like how Hoji and Jasmine are. But to Sen's dismay, he forgot who Sen was which led to Sen crying in the corner of the Deka Room. Gyoku at that point remembered and began to mutter apologies to Sen for not remembering him, but unfortunately he was punished by Umeko by being punched in the gut.

He is voiced by Daisuke Namikawa (浪川 大輔 Namikawa Daisuke).

Arsenal

Vehicles

SPD Mecha

The mecha made by SPD and used by the Dekarangers. "Pat" is a shortened form of "Patrol."

Dekaranger Robo

Deka Machines (デカマシン Deka Mashin) are five machines that are dispatched from the Deka Base. They come when the command "Deka Machines, launch!" (デカマシン発進! Deka Mashin hasshin!) is given. They can combine to form Special Investigation Combination Dekaranger Robo (特捜合体デカレンジャーロボ Tokusō Gattai Dekarenjā Robo), which stands 45 meters tall, weighs in at 4600 tons and power of 15,000,000 hp (11 GW). It carries the Judgement Sword (ジャッジメントソード Jajjimento Sōdo) (which performs the Flying Crash (フライングクラッシュ Furaingu Kurasshu) attack and the Judgement Crash (ジャッジメントクラッシュ Jajjimento Kurasshu) finisher), the giant Gyro Wapper (ジャイロワッパー Jairo Wappā) handcuffs and the Signal Cannon (シグナルキャノン Shigunaru Kyanon) (has normal gun (red muzzle), Catch Rope (キャッチロープ Kyatchi Rōpu) (yellow), and Water Splash (ウォータースプラッシュ Wōtā Supurasshu) (blue) functions). Its finisher is where it can use its Signal Cannon at full power for its Justice Flasher (ジャスティスフラッシャー Jasutisu Furasshā) attack. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by Abutrex near the finale, but eventually rebuilt to assist the Magirangers in a fight against Abutrex.

Pat Striker becomes Dekaranger Robo's head, main torso, upper legs. Pat Gyror becomes Dekaranger Robo's lower left leg. Patrailer becomes Dekaranger Robo's lower right leg. Pat Armor becomes Dekaranger Robo's right arm. Pat Signar becomes Dekaranger Robo's left arm.

Deka Base Robo

The Deka Base (デカベース Deka Bēsu) is the primary headquarters for the SPD Earth Branch, and base of operations for Doggie Kruger. In base mode, it can attack with its Base Beam (ベースビーム Bēsu Bīmu). But it can transform into a rover vehicle, Deka Base Crawler (デカベースクローラー Deka Bēsu Kurōrā), by the command "Special Investigation Maneuver, Deka Base Crawler!" (特捜起動、デカベースクローラー! Tokusō Kidō, Deka Bēsu Kurōrā!), for mobility (the top half of the base becomes the front half of the rover, and Crawler Beam (クローラービーム Kurōrā Bīmu) cannons come out of the back half) and the Deka Base Robo (デカベースロボ Deka Bēsu Robo), by the command "Super Giant Maneuver, Deka Base Robo!" (超巨大起動、デカベースロボ! Chō Kyodai Kidō, Deka Bēsu Robo!), (the back half of the rover becomes the legs, with the Crawler Beams as the knees, the front tread wells become the arms, with the back half's side lights as its hands, the dog head becomes the breast, and the front windows become the back, revealing the head), which is twice the size of its fellow mecha. It was stolen in the finale by Agent Abrella, but later recovered after Deka Red uses the hidden secondary control system to regain control and then shut down the Deka Base Robo.

It is only used when the enemy is too big for Dekaranger Robo, or when the Dekaranger Robo is unavailable, as seen in episode 22, where however it is mentioned that the Deka Base Robo is not as mobile as the Dekaranger Robo to fight a smaller enemy. Deka Base Robo is also suited for providing backup to the other Deka Robos such as in episode 38 as well as destroying regular incoming planetary threats, like the planet destroying missile in episode 30.

It uses its Finger Missiles (フィンガーミサイル Fingā Misairu) and Knee Brace Beams (ニーブレスビーム Nī Buresu Bīmu) to attack enemies, and then finish them with its Volcanic Buster (ヴォルカニック・バスター Vorukanikku Basutā) attack (the younger Browgul could withstand this attack, however). When the Deka Machines are docked inside it (Pat Striker/Pat Wing 1: central; Pat Gyror/Pat Wing 2: rear right; Patrailer/Pat Wing 3: rear left; Pat Armor/Pat Wing 4: front left; Pat Signer/Pat Wing 5: front right), the Deka Base Robo can achieve 200% of its normal power output.

Deka Bike Robo

The Deka Bike (デカバイク Deka Baiku) is a giant motorcycle piloted by Deka Break (except in episode 29, when Deka Red piloted it while Deka Break was ordered to stay in Deka Base), and comes when the command "Deka Bike, launch!" (デカバイク、発進! Deka Baiku, Hasshin!) is given. When the command "Special Investigation Transformation!" (特捜変形! Tokusō Henkei!) is given, it can become Special Investigation Transformation Deka Bike Robo (特捜変形デカバイクロボ Tokusō Henkei Deka Baiku Robo), which possesses two Sleeve Sword (スリーブソード Surību Sōdo) jackknives and can initiate either its sonic boom or its Sword Tornado (ソードトルネード Sōdo Torunēdo) finisher. It can be ridden on by Dekaranger Robo, known as Riding Dekaranger Robo (ライディングデカレンジャーロボ Raidingu Dekarenjā Robo), where it can use the Dekaranger Robo's Signal Cannon for its Riding Justice Flasher (ライディングジャスティスフラッシャー Raidingu Jasutisu Furasshā) attack and through this formation it can combine with the Dekaranger Robo to form Super Dekaranger Robo.

Though Deka Bike is never seen flying in Earth's atmosphere, it is capable of interstellar flight, and is used as a means of interstellar transport on several occasions. It was destroyed in the finale when Tetsu set it to remote control and had it ram into the Deka Base Robo with Agent Abrella at the controls in a kamikaze attack, which only proved to be futile. However, like Dekaranger Robo, it was rebuilt to help the Magirangers in a fight against two Alienizers and a Hades Beastman.

Blast Buggy

Exclusive to Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger The Movie: Full Blast Action, Blast Buggy (ブラストバギー Burasuto Bagī) is one of the remaining Deka Machines on Planet Leslie that was found and piloted by Deka Break. It can combine with Dekaranger Robo to create Dekaranger Robo Full Blast Custom (デカレンジャーロボ フルブラストカスタム Dekarenjā Robo Furu Burasuto Kasutamu) when the command "Special Investagation Armament!" (特捜武装! Tokusō Busō!) is given. When combined it splits into the Blast Shield (ブラストシールド Burasuto Shīrudo) (which replaces Pat Signer's signboard) and Blast Launcher (ブラストランチャー Burasuto Ranchā) (double barrel gun), with the rear bumper forming a chest ornament for Dekaranger Robo.

Attacks are Spinning Blast (スピニングブラスト Supiningu Burasuto), (planting the shield on the ground to spin around and fire in all directions) and Blast Launcher Full Blast (ブラストランチャー・フルブラスト Burasuto Ranchā Furu Burasuto) finisher in Dekaranger Robo Full Blast Custom Final Mode (デカレンジャーロボ フルブラストカスタム ファイナルモード Dekarenjā Robo Furu Burasuto Kasutamu Fainaru Mōdo) (placing the launcher on the shield to fire a supercharged shot, calling it the Full Blast Launcher (フルブラストランチャー Furu Burasuto Ranchā)).

Super Dekaranger Robo

When Dekaranger Robo combines with Deka Bike through the Riding Dekaranger Robo formation, it can create the Super Special Investigation Combination Super Dekaranger Robo (超特捜合体スーパーデカレンジャーロボ Chō Tokusō Gattai Sūpā Dekarenjā Robo).

Pat Striker becomes Super Dekaranger Robo's head and main torso. Pat Gyror becomes Super Dekaranger Robo's left arm. Patrailer becomes Super Dekaranger Robo's right arm. Pat Armor goes on top of Super Dekaranger Robo's right shoulder. Pat Signer goes on top of Super Dekaranger Robo's left shoulder. Deka Bike Robo becomes Super Deka Ranger Robo's helmet, chest armor, back, shoulders, fists, and lower legs.

It can use its jet engines to maneuver at superhuman speeds and it can perform its finisher Gatling Punch (ガトリングパンチ Gatoringu Panchi) where it strikes with a barrage of high speed punches, and Dynamite Upper (ダイナマイトアッパー Dainamaito Appā), a powerful uppercut punch.

Deka Wing Robo

The Pat Wings (パトウィング Pato Wingu) come when the command "Pat Wings, Take Off!" (パトウィング、テイクオフ! Pato Wingu, Teiku Ofu!) is given. They combine into Special Investigation Combination Deka Wing Robo (特捜合体デカウィングロボ Tokusō Gattai Deka Wingu Robo). Created by Swan for cases involving aerial and outer space battles, since it is better equipped for midair combat. Designed to be used with the Deka Rangers' SWAT Mode. It can perform the Double Heel Smash (ダブルヒールスマッシュ Daburu Hīru Sumasshu). Armed with its two Pat Magnum (パトマグナム Pato Magunamu) guns and can transform into the Deka Wing Cannon (デカウィングキャノン Deka Wingu Kyanon) to delete its opponent with the Final Buster (ファイナルバスター Fainaru Basutā) finisher. Deka Wing Cannon is an homage to the Vavilos Big Magnum of Uchuu Keiji Shaider. The Deka Wing Robo was used in the finale by Deka Break to hold off the stolen Deka Base Robo so the others could reclaim it from Agent Abarella. Though the Deka Wing Robo was badly damaged to where it was rendered immobile, it was later repaired and used again in Mahou Sentai Magiranger vs. Dekaranger.

The command for the Deka Wing Cannon formation is "Special Investigation Transformation!". The Deka Wing Cannon can also be held by another mecha and combine energies to enhance the cannon's power, these other variations are All Star Ultimate Buster (オールスター・アルティメットバスター Ōru Sutā Arutimetto Basutā) (with Dekaranger Robo, Deka Bike Robo and Deka Base Robo), Twin Robo Ultimate Buster (ツインロボ・アルティメットバスター Tsuin Robo Arutimetto Basutā) (with Deka Bike Robo), and Magi Final Buster (マジファイナルバスター Maji Fainaru Basutā) (with the Magirangers' Magi Legend).

Pat Wing 1 forms Deka Wing Robo's head, torso, and upper legs. Pat Wing 2 forms Deka Wing Robo's arms and Deka Wing Cannon's handle. Pat Wing 3 forms Deka Wing Robo's lower legs and Deka Wing Cannon's barrels. Pat Wing 4 forms Deka Wing Robo's right foot and Deka Wing Cannon's right muzzle. Pat Wing 5 forms Deka Wing Robo's left foot and Deka Wing Cannon's left muzzle.

In one instance, Pat Wing 5 was used as a missile to ram into the enemy where Deka Pink promptly threw out the Mechahuman out of the cockpit.

Other combinations

Three combinations never seen in the show are given in the toy instructions. The first combines Pat Striker with Pat Wings 2-5, the second combines Pat Wing 1 with four of the Deka Machines (sans Pat Striker), and the third is the combination with the Pat Wing 1 and the Deka Machine limbs combined with the Deka Bike in a riding mode. Additionally, though also never seen in the footage, the toy the Deka Base Crawler is able to be converted slightly to allow it to carry the Deka Bike atop itself.

Others

Falufian Yaako (ファルファ星人ヤーコ Farufa Seijin Yāko, 38)
Yaako is a small alien child that somewhat resembles a piglet; hence Ban calling her "kobuta-chan" (the Japanese word for piglet). She has the ability to manipulate locks; because of this, she was partnered with the Alienizer Gyanjava to commit mass burglary across the galaxy. One day, she ran away from Gyanjava and approached the SPD for protection. During the escort operation, Yaako and Ban were tricked into riding a bicycle rigged with a speed-sensitive explosive set up by Gyanjava, who revealed that he killed Yaako's parents and kidnapped her to do his dirty work. Ban and Yaako rode the bicycle away from the city, but an ambush by an army of Batsuroids and Anaroids forced them off a cliff. It was at this moment that Yaako's heart sparked and she changed into her true form - a beautiful humanoid teenage girl with wings, saving Ban from the explosion. She then used her power to strip Gyanjava of his armor before Ban deleted him. In the end, Yaako was assigned to help the SPD. Voiced by Shoko Nakagawa (中川 翔子 Nakagawa Shōko), who also portrays her adult form.

Other Sentai Teams

Space Criminals Alienizer

Space Criminals Alienizer (宇宙犯罪者アリエナイザー Uchū Hanzaisha Arienaizā) is the generic name given to aliens that commit various forms of crime, on Earth and on other planets in the setting of Dekaranger.

Agent Abrella

Rainian Agent Abrella (レイン星人エージェント・アブレラ Rein Seijin Ējento Aburera) is an Alienizer agent who arrives at Earth from Planet Rain, a world in which it constantly rains, evident that Abrella needs an artificial environment of rain to sustain himself. The most sinister figure in the galactic black market, he is solely responsible for the outbreak of wars in seven galaxies, destroying billions of lives in the process. He is usually seen offering his services to the alien criminals there, providing Mechanoids and Kaijuki for the right price. Acting behind the shadows, Abrella gathers info on the Deka Base from his clients who made it in and escaped with their lives, setting up a plan over time to fulfill his desire for a "world of just currency and crime". Eventually making his presence known to the Dekarangers during the Faraway incident, Abrella starts taking their interference personally after the Browgoul incident, leading a campaign against the Space Police through Doggie's former friend Bisques and piloting a Big Drawer until he finally executes his master plan, busting out a quartet of Alienizer criminals and taking over the Deka Base while he used another Alienizer criminal Jellyfis to keep the Dekarangers busy. From there, he uses Deka Base Robo to rampage Megalopolis so to lure the bulk of SPD to Earth, using their own planetary forcefield against them. However, he meets his end at the hands of the Dekarangers, thus finally bringing him to justice through the D-Bazooka. However, true to his final words, his pupil Abollos would carry on in his stead. His name is from "umbrella", which makes sense considering his homeworld.

In Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After, Kight Reidlich cloned a giant version of Abrella that he kept on planet Highgord to help him fight the Dekarangers. However, Clone Abrella is killed by Dekaranger Robo piloted by Deka Break.

Abrella is voiced by Ryūsei Nakao (中尾 隆聖 Nakao Ryūsei).

Mechanoids

The Mechanoids (メカ人間 Meka Ningen) are android foot soldiers created by Abrella and used by the Alienizers whom he offers his services to.

Kight Reidlich

Kight Reidlich (カイト・レイドリッヒ Kaito Reidorihhi) is the villain of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger: 10 Years After, able to change his face. He is the chief of the Space Police's Galactic District Police Bureau, having being selling investigative information to the space mafia Qurlian Family (キルリアンファミリー Kirurian Famirī) to gain an immense sum of money. But when Doggie Kruger uncovered Reidlich's activities, he mortally wounded Kruger and used his SPD badge's Mirage Dimension to pose as Kruger to frame him for killing his Qurlian customers and their Clementian hostage Amata in cold blood. Reidlich kept Kruger heavily sedated and did everything in his power to cover up his criminal act until Amata's daughter Carrie, who witnessed everything through their race's ability to hide in other people's bodies, give the Dekarangers the evidence to prove their leader's innocent. This forces Reidlich to equip his Neo Hyper Muscle Gear facing Deka Red and Deka Break before sacrificing Assam and Mugi to power the suit up to its maximum output to overwhelm the Dekarangers. However, Reidlich is deleted by the Dekarangers, using a combination of Impulse Vega Slash (Deka Red with the D-Sword Vega) with Deka Break's Lightning Fist and the D-Bazooka.

Kight Reidlich is voiced by Rikiya Koyama (小山 力也 Koyama Rikiya).

Special Criminal Alienizers

Kaijuki

The Kaijuki (怪重機 Kaijūki, "Monster Heavy Industrial Machines")[lower-alpha 4] are robots usually provided by Abrella himself, either the owners pilot them to fight the Deka Rangers' robots, or use them as a distraction with help from a Batsuroid. This is a grand departure from the other Sentai series, and is comparable to the situation in Choudenshi Bioman. In that case, there are no monsters-of-the-week, having instead five and later three recurring human-sized commanders that would pilot different giant-sized robots-of-the-week.
