|
|
| The trio are bummed about the
Goraijer. Two of Oboro's robots are playing with
a 'ball and a cup' and she scolds them. Mugensai
remembers Episode 1 when his students sucked into
the skies. Oboro thinks about the Dark Shinobi. |
|
Mugensai relates the history of
the 500 year rivalry between the two schools.
Oboro points out that the two Goraijer have
tremendous power, and the Hurricanger remember
being beat up. They get some advice from
Mugensai. |
|
|
|
| But our trio happily gets excited
over the idea of ending the long rivalry between
the two schools. They race out with that purpose.
Gamajakushi sends out metal tadpoles that suck up
all the water. Oboro's robots bring her samples. |
|
She puts the tapodles in green
liquid and it sucks it up. It then creates red
lasers in the tank. She analyzes it in her
computer. The Hurricanger run in a hurry and find
the Goraijer. The duo express contempt for the
trio's invitation to fight together. |
|
|
|
| The monster arrives, the
Hurricanger transform, do their roll call and are
wrapped up in chains by the foe. They are
leviated and an explosion causes them to fall in
the water. They fly out of the water and \throw
their ninja stars at them. |
|
But the foe disappears, hops
around, harming them and puts tadapoles on them
that explode. The Goraijer watch from a cliff
above. He then stomps on them. The two jump into
the quarry and transform. It becomes dark and
lighting strikes. |
|
|
|
| They present
themselves about Kabutoraijer and Kuwagataraijer.
They aim their weapons at them, race forward,
race passed the Hurricanger and fight the
mosnter, surprising the Jakanja. The duo toss the
foe away. |
|
He throws his tadapoles at them
but they put them with their shields and then
toss their weapons at him. They fight him with
their weapons and form the Double Gadget. The
trio are happy to cheer. But Oboro and Mugensai
are a bit doubtful. |
|
|
|
| Sargain is upset his robot is
down, Wendinu sends down the Copy Giant and it
becomes Gamajakushi. The Shinobi Machines are
called and form Senpuujin. Tadapoles are thrown
on them and explode. Oboro frets and comes up
with an idea. |
|
They combine the Goat Crusher and
Tortoise Hammer to create the Goat Hammer. They
smash away the tadpoles and finally destroy him.
The water is returned. The trio go up to the duo.
Ikkou says not here to be their pals. |
|
|
|
| Ikkou steps forward, passing a
bewildered Yousuke. His brother Isshu soon joins
him. They explain a world with water would be
bad, and that was the only reason they had fought
the monster. They weren't made to protect the
world. |
|
When our heroes
demand a better explanation, the two give one.
Tao Zanto has been listening, and he thinks he
understands them now. But heroes are only
confused as the two continue speaking of the
rivalry between the schools. |
|
|
|
| They will continue to fight the
trio, they protest. Tao Zanto speaks across the
lake, bringing the attention of his five warriors
and sends out a huge transport orb to bring the
pair in. |
|
While our trio gape in anguish.
The duo transform, shocking Oboro and her father
and then they board the transport orb. Yousuke
screams at them, but it is far too late. They are
gone. |
Comments:
- Ikkou and Isshu's faces are now seen in
place of their helmets in the opening
sequence.
- In a 2005 episode of "Family
Guy," they claim the ball in a cup
toy is from Latin America, its origin is
from France. In Japan, their verison is
called Kendama.
