When world peace is threatened by the appearance of the Black Cross, an international secret society
of evil. United Nations sets up a 'EAGLE' (Earth Guard League) to combat the threat. Designated as 'Blocks',
this special army is distributed throughout the World. Japan has one of the largest of these 'Blocks'.
The Black Cross Army decides to launch a surprise attack against
the Japanese EAGLE Block due to their fear of the united threat.
The Black Cross sends five of its most dangerous cyborg operatives to attack Japan's various EAGLE
branches. The Golden Mask to the Eagle Kanto Base, Warrior Mask to the Tohoku Base, Bronze Mask to Kyushu Base,
Jade Mask to Hokkaido Base, and Poison Gas Mask to Osaka Base.
Across Japan the Black Cross Army diminish its targets, killing all those who opposed them.
Yet from the ashes of these destroyed bases, the five young survivors of these attacks vowed vengeance and using
the special interlocking "key", the various survivors are summoned to snackshop 'Gon', secret gateway to
EAGLE Japan's main command center in Tokyo by Commander Edogawa Kenpachi. They were
reorganized to form the Secret Task Force
Goranger, armed with Goranger Suits that gave them
superhuman abilities. Armed with these form fitted suits and other special weapons created by EAGLE scientists,
they avenged their fallen
comrades by defeating Black Cross' operatives
and the others that followed.
