Barbaric Machine Clan Gaiark

Pollution Ministers

Originally thought to be the last of the Gaiark, the three Pollution Ministers end up on Earth and decide to pollute it to serve as an ideal paradise for them. They based themselves at Hellgaille Palace (, Herugaiyu Kyden?), located on an isolated island in the middle of the sea. Powering the entire place is the Deus Haguru Magear (, Deusu Haguru Magia?), a big gear in their command chamber which is an inexhaustible energy source that Yogostein brought with him from Machine World. The gear’s power is used Yogoshimacritein to create an army of Barbaric Dohma until the primary Go-ongers break it, causing Hellgaille Palace to self destruct and sink into the sea. During the events of Shinkenger vs. Go-onger, the Pollution Ministers are revived.

Yogostein

Land Pollution Minister Yogostein (, Gaichi Daijin Yogoshutain?, []), his full name being Baron Yogorex de Stein (, Baron Yogorekkusu do Shutain?), is the golden-armored general who leads the Gaiark’s land-based Barbaric Machine Beasts, using the Yogospear (, Yogoshupia?) as his weapon and ends his sentences with “Nari”. Though a serious sort, he rejoiced to see his subordinate Hiramechimedes arrives to aid him in destroying the Go-ongers. Despite continuous failure, his faith and esteem he felt for his vice-minister never faded as he showed concern for Hiramechimedes’ well-being and has been in a state of mourning since his death before leaving Hellgaille Palace to clear his head and find himself. By the time he returned, Yogostein was more rage-filled and decides to rely on his own power, creating Hammer Banki to destroy the world rather than remake it into an ideal environment for the Gaiark. It was after his creation was destroyed that Yogostein saw the error of his ways as the other Ministers forgive him for his reckless action. Prior to the events of the movie, Yogostein developed the Savage Machine Beast Recycle program, using his spear to remove the Ugatz’s Souls from their bodies to revive the Savage Machine Beasts in a Minister team attempt to tear down the dimensional barrier. However, the plan failed and Yogostein sets up a new one with the accidentally created Kegalesia Soul. Soon after, Yogostein resumes acting on his own when he begins a new project to unearth the Horonderthal from his rest, setting up a chain of events that would not only dispose of Go-on Red, but being able to upgrade himself as the new Horonderthal King to rust the entire city. However, his upgrade is canceled by Engine-Oh G12 before being destroyed by the revived Go-on Red in a one-on-one duel.

When entering battle alongside the other pollution Ministers, Yogostein says, “The Dried Cracked Ground! I am Land Pollution Minister Yogostein” (, Kawaki hibiwareta tsuchi yo! Ware, Gaichi Daijin Yogoshutain?), while when attacking with other Land Pollution Ministry members he says, “The Earth soiled by a hateful guy, Land Pollution Minister Yogostein!” (, Daichi o yogosu nikui yatsu, Gaichi Daijin Yogoshutain nari?). He performs Yogospear Grind (, Yogoshupia Guraendo?) with the Yogospear. With Hiramechimedes and Happa Banki, they can perform the Land Pollution Gattai DoDoDo Ground (, Gaichi Gattai Dododo Guraundo?).

Yogostein is voiced by Kiyoyuki Yanada ( , Yanada Kiyoyuki?).

Kegalesia

Water Pollution Minister Kegalesia (, Gaisui Daijin Kegareshia?, []) is the human-looking general with the Kegastick (, Kegasutikku?) who leads the Gaiark’s sea-based Barbaric Machine Beasts. She has artificial human-like skin that regenerates and shoots steam from the projections on her back armor if she is in a foul mood, and the handle on her head cuts off this leakage. She ends her sentences with “Ojaru”, is a heavy drinker who hates to be called “Old Lady”, sometimes enlarging from the anger being too much to fume out. While under the guise of Rena Kegareshi ( , Kegareshi Rena?), Kegalesia develops a vendetta against Hant due to his falling in love with her guise and calling her loving things, like “pure,” which are offensive to members of the Gaiark. It was this taboo that she could never fall in love with Nigorl, as his ideas were the opposite of the Gaiark’s. While the Go-ongers were trapped in Samurai World, Kegalesia accidentally separates her Kegalesia Soul (, Kegareshia Sru?) from her body, with her soul set into Bomper by the other Ministers to convert the robot into Bompelesia (, Bonpareshia?) so they can take advantage of the situation by setting a trap. However, Bomper manages to regain control and ejects the Kegalesia Soul prior to being reinstalled back in her body. She occasionally joined Saki and Miu in the 3-girl idol group G3 Princess, though the second time ended with her enlarging and being knocked into the distance by Engine-Oh G12. When Yogoshimacritein arrives, Kegalesia is reduced to a mere henchman forced to obey him. She is annoyed when Yogoshimacritein uses her and Kitaneidas as human shields against the Go-onger’s attacks, seeing him for what he is and his methods not to her liking. As an act of defiance against the dictator, she helps in destroying the Infinite Wastebin before she was heavily damaged by Yogoshimacritein. She gives the location of the Deus Haguru Magear to Go-on Red, Blue, and Yellow before shutting down.

Due to her nature as a Water Pollution branch member, she can execute Water Pollution Fusion (, Gaisui Gasshin?) with any member of the same branch, boosting up their power as a result. Before entering battle, Kelgalesia says, “The muddied and fetid waters! I am Water Pollution Minister Kegalesia!” (, Nigori kutta mizu yo! Warawa, Gaisui Daijin Kegareshia?). After transforming into her true form as part of the one-time only G3 Princess idol group, Kelgalesia says, “Love me or Regret it!! Kegalesia” (, Horenakya Kkai!! Kegareshia?). As part of G3 Princess with Go-on Yellow and Silver, she performs Princess Cannonball (, Purinsesu Kyanonbru?), after performing G3 Triangle (, J Sur Toraianguru?) which passes the ball made by them.

Kegalesia is portrayed by Nao Oikawa ( , Oikawa Nao?).

Kitaneidas

Air Pollution Minister Kitaneidas (, Gaiki Daijin Kitaneidasu?, []) leads the Gaiark’s sky-based Barbaric Machine Beasts and uses the Kitaneibar (, Kitaneib?) as his weapon and can turn himself into smog as well as execute his Air Pollution Attack (, Gaiki Attaku?). He is the best card player among the three ministers and ends his sentences with “Zoyo”. He experimented with Bikkurium’s potent abilities prior to using it on Barbaric Machine Beasts. Kitaneidas is reduced to a mere henchman when Yogoshimacritein arrives and is forced to obey him. He is agitated when Yogoshimacritein uses him as a human shield against the Go-ongers, and as a final act, he destroys the Infinite Wastebin before he is forced to shutdown by Yogoshimacritein.

Before entering battle, Kitaneidas says, “The blackened skies! I am Air Pollution Minister Kitaneidas!” (, Kuroku somatta kki yo! Watashi, Gaiki Daijin Kitaneidasu?).

Kitaneidas is voiced by Mitsuaki Madono ( , Madono Mitsuaki?).

Hiramechimedes

Land Pollution Vice-Minister Hiramechimedes (, Gaichi Fukudaijin Hiramekimedesu?, []) is Yogostein’s subordinate and the Gaiark’s top tactical genius, a more serious threat than the Pollution Ministers. Whenever inspired with a plan, the 3 light bulbs on his head flash as he says “Pok-Pok-Ping!” (!, Poku-Poku-Pn!?) with the sextant, and protractor on his chestplate indicating the plan’s greatness. Originally a second-rate inventor of many of the Gaiark group’s arsenal, he plotted to assassinate Yogostein to become the new Land Pollution Minister and be somebody. However, after seeing his brilliant mind recognized by Yogostein as he awards him with the sword Hacalibur (, Hakarib?) and his title on the day the Gaiark attack Machine World, Hiramechimedes devoted himself to his master’s cause without question as he became feared by the Engines, making them frightened husks of their former selves in his numerous victories which they eventually overcame. However, on the day the Gaiark were expelled from Machine World, Hiramechimedes mysteriously disappeared during the fight only to resurface months later on the Human World to serve under Yogostein again after settling some loose ends with the Wing Engines as he thought he had handled, only to be once more pursed by them and the Go-on Wings.

Eventually, Hiramechimedes, along with Yogostein and Bseki Banki, stages his apparent banishment from Hellgaille palace as part of a plan to deceive the Go-ongers and kill Go-on Gold. However the plan goes wrong yet again with the arrival of Engine-Oh G9 and Hiramechimedes refuses to return to Yogostein out of shame, spending long days of calculation for a means to kill the Go-ongers. After a vain attempt to destroy the Go-on teams, Hiramechimedes finally finds the answer he had been looking for: to beat the Go-ongers at their own game with raw power rather than with intellect. To that end he sneaks back into Hellgaille Palace and, in spite of Yogostein’s pleas, infuses himself with a hundred times the Bikkurium amount that a Savage Machine Beast needs for “Industrial Revolution”. In consequence, the stress of this destroyed Hiramechimedes’ mind as he upgrades into a more powerful and insane babbling form called Detaramedes (, Detaramedesu?, 23). Though he almost defeats Engine-Oh G9 after executing “Big Industrial Revolution”, Detaramedes’s downfall comes from Ssuke’s reckless refusal to give up. In the end, Go-on Red scraps Detaramedes with only the Hacalibur remaining for Yogostein to pick up.

However, while the Go-ongers visit a shrine in the woods, they encounter Hiramechimedes’ ghost, referring to himself as Urameshimedes (, Urameshimedesu?, 24), as his malice towards the Go-ongers kept him from passing on. Unable to regain physical form, Urameshimedes made a detour to Samurai World to recruit the aid of Bakki to help him by phyiscally harming the Go-ongers in return to allow him to destroy the forest. But when everything didn’t work out as planned, Urameshimedes possesses Bakki’s body as Hirameki Bakki (, Hirameki Bakki?, 24) and enlarges it to kill the Go-ongers. However, the Go-on teams manage to use a G9 Grand Prix laced with salt on the two so the attack would not only kill Bakki, but exorcise Hiramechimedes in the process.

His attacks have a calculus theme from his Pi Beam (, Enshritsu Pai Bmu?) to his sword-based Equilateral Triangle Slash (, Seisankakkei Giri?), Isosceles Right Triangle Slash (, Chokkaku Nithen Sankakkei Giri?), Acute Triangle Slash (, Eikaku Sankakkei Giri?), and Hirameki Kill-Factor: Pythagorean Theorem (, Hirameki Sapp: Sanheih no Teiri?) attacks. As Detaramedes, his uses a variety of attacks with a miscalculation theme such as Hissatsu: Root 3 – Base Diameter = 950000 (, Hissatsu: Rto San hiku Teihen waru Chokkei wa Kyjgoman?), 10 – 4 = 200 (, J hiku Yon wa Nihyaku?), 6 + 9 = 500 (, Roku tasu Ky wa Gohyaku?), Detarame Kill-Factor: Bikkurium Beam (, Detarame Sapp: Bikkuriumu Ksen?), Detarame Kill-Factor: Brain Freeze Slash (, Detarame Sapp: Shik Teishi Giri?), and Detarame Kick-Punch-Chop-Slash (, Detarame Kikku Panchi Choppu Giri?). Before entering battle, Hiramechimedes says, “Pok-Pok-Ping! and I have a flash. Land Pollution Vice-Minister Hiramechimedes!” (, Poku-Poku-Pn! to hirameku wa, Gaichi Fuku Daijin Hiramekimedesu desu?).

Hiramechimedes is voiced by Kazuya Nakai ( , Nakai Kazuya?).

Kokorootomedes

Kokorootomedes (, Kokorootomedesu?, []) is a character who appears only in the It’s a Seminar! Everyone GO-ON!! special DVD. He is Hiramechimedes’s older cross dressing brother who is very flamboyant in personality and often asserts his femininity, seeing himself as a maiden. Armed with the Kiradecolibur (, Kiradekorib?) that is a decorated version of Hiramechimedes’s Hacalibur, Kokorootomedes challenges Go-on Red to avenge his younger brother. At first, Kokorootomedes uses his feminine wiles and his two attacks on his opponent, Kokorootomedes’s Fashion Check Attack (, Kokorootomedesu no Fasshon Chekku Kgeki?) and Lovely Sparkling Pentagon, Star Heart Slash (, Koi no Kirakira Gokakkei, Ohoshi-sama Hto Giri?). But once man-handled by Go-on Red, Kokorootomedes upgrades into a powerful berserker form, becoming a Yakuza-type in personality with his crazed Hissatsu: Ruless Battle (, Hissatsu: Jgi Naki Tatakai?) attack that lets him fight dirty. In the end, he is scrapped by Go-on Red using the Kankanbar Mantangun on him, lamenting on his desire before rethinking that it wasn’t well worth his death.

Like his brother, Kokorootomedes is voiced by Kazuya Nakai.

Kireizky

Cleaning Minister Kireizky (, Sji Daijin Kireizuk?, []) is one of the Gaiark’s ministers, who “cleans” the slate of Braneworlds he has visited, destroying the Sound World, the Magic World, and the Prism World to acquire a special energy called Dokkirium (, Dokkiriumu?). Arriving in the Human World, Kireizky intervened during Engine-Oh G9’s fight with Bin Banki before formally introducing himself. Kireizky is armed with Seven Cleaning Tools (, Osji Nanatsu Dgu?) such as Duster Blade (, Hataki Burdo?) with which he can execute the Dust Trash (, Hokori Torasshu?), Tying Sleeves (, Tasuki Gake?), and Round Moon Slash (, Engetsu Giri?) attacks. His other weapons are Broom Shotgun (, Hki Shottogan?), Anti-Soul Rag (, Anchi Sru Zkin?) that can absorb Engine-Soul based attacks and send them back to knock them out or be wrung into the Rag Grenade (, Zkin Gurendo?), the Dustpan Shield (, Chiritori Shrudo?), and Cotton Swab Kunai (, Menb Kunai?). His sixth weapon, the Bottomless Wastebin (, Mugen Gomibako?), allows him to manipulate space itself from evading an enemy attack to sending them far away with Vacuum Full Power (, Bakymu Furu Paw?). But once losing the wastebin, Kireizky swallows the Dokkirium he gather to undergo Super Industrial Revolution (, Chsangy Kakumei?) before using the strongest of his seven weapons, the Bucket Bazooka (, Baketsu Bazka?). Though he overpowered the Go-ongers, the tables turn when the entire team is reassembled and Kireizky is finally scrapped by Engine-Oh G12. However, his Wastebin ended up at the Hellgaille Palace, still active as Yogoshimacritein emerges from it. His name is from the Japanese word for “tidiness” (, kireizuki?).

Kireizky is voiced by Eiji Takemoto ( , Takemoto Eiji?)

Yogoshimacritein

Crime Minister Yogoshimacritein (, Sridaijin Yogoshimakuritain?, []) is the black/gold armored Insurgant Highness (, Denka no Bt?) and Yogostein’s father, ending his sentences with “Narina”. Being the total opposite of his son and most ruthless of the Gaiark, Yogoshimacritein desired to rule all the Braneworlds, playing part in forcing the Gian Race Engines into the verge of extinction and oversaw the destruction of the three Braneworlds by Kireizky. After Kireizky’s death, Yogoshimacritein uses his fallen minion’s Bottomless Wastebin to enter the Human World, using it as a means to feed from in order for him to use his signature inhereditary attack Justice Dissolution (, Seigi Kaisan?), which can convert those it hits into wavelengths as long as the Deus Haguru Magear is active. He uses it to take out Hant, Gunpei, and the Go-on Wings, along with their Engine partners, Carrigator, Jum-bowhale, and the ancient Engines. His other attacks are Puppet Regime (, Kugutsu Kairaiseiken?) which can turn his subordinates into his puppets, Ration Provision Bullet (, Teigaku Kyfu Dan?). He uses his staff to unleashes his most powerful attacks: Enforcing Vote (, Kyk Saiketsu?) and Closing Despotic Proclamation: Yogoshimanifesto Break (, Saish Dokusai Sengen: Yogoshimanifesuto Bureiku?). Eventually, Yogoshimacritein reveals to Kegalesia and Kitaneidas that he never cared for his surbordinates and will sacrifice them as long as it is to accomplish their plan. After losing the Infinite Wastebin to the ministers, Yogoshimacritein fatally damages them both before making his way to the Deus Haguru Magear to power himself up until he is trapped in the Bikkurium chamber as the gear is destroyed, causing the entire Hellgaille Palace to collapse around him. However, Yogoshimacritein reconstructs himself from his gears and attempts to destroy the city until he is halted by Hant, Gunpei, and the Go-on Wings. Once the primary Go-ongers join the fray, Yogoshimacritein enlarges himself in a process called Third Industrial Revolution (, Daisanji Sangy Kakumei?) and battles Engine-Oh G12 until he is finally destroyed by the G12 Final Grand Prix attack.

Yogoshimacritein is voiced by Kiyoyuki Yanada, who also voices Yogostein.

Chirakasonne

Danger Cabinet-Director Chirakasonne (, Kikanb Chkan Chirakasne?, []) is Yogoshimacritein’s Boiler-based right-hand man in bulky armor who ends his sentence with “nonne”. He is a user of kenp named Natural Litter Constitution (, Tenchirakashi Kenp?) and his trademark attack is the Natural Reversal (, Tenchi Gyakuten?), ingesting the energy attack of an opponent and reflecting back. His other attack, Natural Unnecessariness (, Tenchi Muy?), produces a shockwave that levels buildings to the ground. Once the Go-ongers found a means to counter his signature move, Chirakasonne ingests Dokkirium and defeats both Engine-Oh and Seiku-Oh easily. But GunBir-Oh turns the tables and overloads Chirakasonne with its attack.

Chirakasonne is voiced by Bin Shimada ( , Shimada Bin?).

Batcheed

Pollution President Batcheed (, Gaitry Batchdo?, []) is a high ranking member of the Gaiark who appears in Samurai Sentai Shinkenger vs. Go-onger: GinmakuBang!!. He has been conquering the Gunman World (, Ganman Wrudo?) when he comes across the Go-ongers. When they are all sent through a dimensional rift to the Human World, Batcheed joins forces with the Gedoushu to defeat his foes and complete the Batchrium Plant (, Batchiriumu Purant?) on the moon’s surface which can pollute all the Braneworlds. His attacks are Batcheed Spiral (, Batchdo Supairaru?) which shoots gears from his head, and Batcheed Vulcan (, Batchdo Barukan?) which fires screw-shaped bullets from his abdomen.

Batcheed is voiced by Banj Ginga ( , Ginga Banj?).

Other Barbaric Machine Clans

Cousin groups related the the Gaiark who are as evil as they are.

Arelunbra Family

Preceding the Gaiark as the Engines’ mortal enemies, the Barbaric Machine Clan Arelunbra Family (, Bankizoku Arerunbura Ke?) were sea-based androids terrorized Machine World with their Water Pollution Machine Knights (, Gaisui Kishi?) before their leader Nigorl left for the Human World and the Arelunbra faded into legend.

Water Pollution Machine Knight Uzumaquixote (, Gaisui Kishi Uzumakihte?, 25): A servant of Nigorl who ends his sentences with “Knight”, armed with a jousting lance and shield with the ability to consume anything from garbage to energy. Stuck on Earth as a stone statue after too more exposure to the clean surroundings, Uzumaquixote was found by a young Renn, thinking that it was a Kitigarbha (, Jiz?) statue as he prayed to it to make his mother better before she died. By present day, Renn sought out the statue when he visited his childhood home, with the Pollution Ministers and Go-on Wings fighting over it. In the end, Kegalesia revives Uzumaquixote and has him attack the Go-ongers, until Renn transforms into Go-on Blue seeing his “family” more important than his sentimentality for the statue. After ingesting Bikkurium, Uzamaquixote is scrapped after a three-pronged attack from Seiku-Oh, GunBir-Oh, and Engine-Oh after Renn perfects the Kyu-yu Soul’s re-energizing powers, but not before revealing his master being on Earth as well. Uzamaquixote is named after the Japanese word for “spiral” and “whirlpool” (, uzumaki?) and Don Quixote (, Don Kihte?). Voiced by Naomi Kusumi ( , Kusumi Naomi?).

Water Pollution Prince Nigorl zo Arelunbra (, Gaisui ji Nigru zo Arerunbura?, 26): Prince of the Arelunbra, a fencing master of the Nigorl Rapier (, Nigru Reipia?) and able to summon rain clouds. Nigorl ended up on Earth in suspended animation after Kegalesia turns him down, due to the fact that he has an unusual liking to things he considers beautiful which contradicts the Gaiark’s taboo on the word “beauty.” Though revived, Nigorl’s affections turn from Kegalesia to Bearrv as he attempts to marry her. But after the team regains Bearrv from him, Nigorl is mortally wounded and left to die by Kegalesia. While fighting, Nigorl’s stronger ability is the Water Pollution branch’s trademark Water Pollution Fusion, using it on Kegalesia and mass amounts of water to enlarge into a giant without need of Bikkurium and having Kegalesia interfaced in his systems as a battery to increase his power. In this state, referred as Mix Kegalegorl (, Mikkusu Kegaregru?), Nigorl’s attacks are Kegalegorl BeBeBeBeam (, Kegaregru BiBiBiBmu?) and Kegalegorl ThunThuThunder (, Kegaregru SanSaSand?). His name is from the Japanese word for “to get impure” (, nigoru?). Voiced by Kenji Nojima ( , Nojima Kenji?).

Horonderthal

The Barbaric Machine Clan Horonderthal (, Bankizoku Horonderutru?, 34-35) is of a legendary clan of giant Clockwork Savage Machines which exterminated dinosaurs on the earth 65 million years ago with his violence-inducing Horonden Wave (, Horondenpa?). He battled with the Ancient Engines at that time, with their fight ending up with both sides fossilized within a mountain. Making it his goal, Yogostein manages to find the location with the aid of Drill Banki, only to accidentally free the Ancient Engines instead. But after personally finding the exact location of Horonderthal, Yogostein awakens him from his rest and upgrades him so that his attack can affect Kyoretsu-Oh. However, in spite of his modern-time upgrades, the Horonderthal became the first to be scrapped by Engine-Oh G12 with Yogostein taking the Horonderthal’s power for himself. His name is from the Japanese word for “extinct” (, horobu?) and “Neanderthal” (, Neanderutru?).

Arsenal

Barbaric Machine Soldiers Ugatz (, Bankihei Ugattsu?)

Android footsoldiers built to support the Barbaric Machine Beasts and pilot the Barbaric Dohmas, later upgraded by Hiramechimedes with his screws. When Nigorl arrives, he brings his own feminine Beauty Ugatz (, Byti Ugattsu?), which are stronger than the regular Ugatz. Some of the Ugatz had their souls removed from them by Yogostein to revive the Savage Machine Beasts. In Samurai Sentai Shinkenger vs. Go-onger: GinmakuBang!!, the Ugatz transform into a motorcycle. Its name is from the Japanese word for “dig” (, ugatsu?).

Barbaric Dohma (, Bandma?)

Cave cricket-like jet fighters invented by Hiramechimedes which can assume a frog-like walking mode. Though normally used by the Ugatz, the Pollution Ministers piloted their own Barbaric Dohmas before escaping to Earth. Its name is from the Japanese word for “cave cricket” (, Kamadma?).

Barbaric Dohma SP (Special) (, Bandma Supesharu?, 15-22)

Cave cricket and Mantis-like jet fighters that serve as Hiramechimedes’ personal transport, each able to hold up to four Barbaric Dohma on itself to resemble a classic World War I airplane. The Pollution Ministers later used their own Barbaric Dohma SP to transport their Recycle Savage Machine Beast Army to carry out their plan to tear down the dimensional barrier.

Barbaric Machine Beasts

The Barbaric Machine Beasts (, Bankij?) are monsters created to pollute the Earth. They are each separated into one of three types that are under the Pollution Ministers: Savage Ground (, Gaichi?), Savage Sea (, Gaisui?), and Savage Sky (, Gaiki?). The Barbaric Machine Beasts are infused with a special energy called Bikkurium (, Bikkuriumu?) that enlarges them in a process called Industrial Revolution (, Sangy Kakumei?), however this process can be activated while the Barbaric Machine Beast is still alive. They are named putting the suffix “Banki” (, Banki?) after the name of the object they are based on, machines that were present at the turn of the century. When scrapped, the dead Savage Machine Beasts shrink back to normal size and end up at the Savage Machine Beast Graveyard. Yogostein took advantage of this in his Savage Machine Beast program by using Ugatz souls to reanimate the Recycled Barbaric Machine Beast Army (, Risaikuru Bankij Gundan?, movie), only for them to be rescrapped by the Engines due to being much weaker than they used to be.

Shoukyaku Banki (, Shkyaku Banki?, 1, Movie, Narikiri Movie): An incinerator (, shkyakuro?) Savage Sky Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kitaneidas, putting stuff into the furnace on his forehead to induce smog and perform his attacks. Shoukyaku Banki prefers to burn flowers and anything pretty to improve the toxicity of his smog. He fails in his mission when the Go-ongers arrive, and is forcefully upgraded by the Pollution Ministers. Shoukyaku Banki is the first to be scrapped by Engine-Oh. The second Shoukyaku Banki in the narikiri movie Legendary Hero (, Densetsu no Hr?) was scrapped by Engine-Oh. Voiced by Takashi Nagasako ( , Nagasako Takashi?).

Pipe Banki (, Paipu Banki?, 2): A drainage pipe (, haisui paipu?) Savage Water Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kegalesia to pollute Earth’s waters with the sludge from his pipes, tending to say “Jobber” in his sentences. The Go-ongers for fight him when he tests his powers at a dam, retreating after succeeding. He then returns later to pollute Shindaiba in giant form, attacking the Go-ongers once learning they are without their Engine Casts. But once the three get them back, Pipe Banki is then scrapped by Engine-Oh after a messy hostage situation. Voiced by Takayuki Kond ( , Kond Takayuki?).

Scoop Banki (, Sukoppu Banki?, 3): A scoop (, sukoppu?) Savage Land Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Yogostein to attack Neo Tokyo Hills, tending to say “Kappore” (a meaningless word sung for rhythm) in his sentences. His trademark attacks are “Landslide Blizzard” and the stronger “Super Landslide Blizzard”, using his shovel gauntlets to scoop up boulders or bury his opponents in dirt. He is scrapped by Engine-Oh after being corrected by Go-on Blue that Musashi killed Kojir not with two swords, but with a long bokken (the length of the Go-on Sword gave the Go-ongers a greater advantage over Scoop Banki’s shovel gauntlets). Voiced by Tamotsu Nishiwaki ( , Nishiwaki Tamotsu?), previously the voice of Highness Duke Org Ura in Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger.

Spray Banki (, Supur Banki?, 4, movie): A clumsy yet over eager spray bottle (, supur?) Savage Water Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kegalesia as her assassin to steal the Engine Cast of Birca.

Jishaku Banki (, Jishaku Banki?, 5, movie): A magnet (, jishaku?) Savage Land Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Yogostein with the power of magnetism, able to take his opponents’ weapons and use them. Though defeated in the first fight, Jishaku Banki is upgraded to Denjishaku Banki (, Denjishaku Banki?), becoming an electromagnet (, denjishaku?) with greater power with his Fleming’s Law attack until Hant destroys his power source. He is the first to be scrapped by Engine-Oh Birca. Voiced by Toshiharu Sakurai ( , Sakurai Toshiharu?).

Speaker Banki (, Supk Banki?, 6, movie): A speaker (, supk?) Savage Sky Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kitaneidas, able to convert beautiful sound waves into noise pollution with his microphone spear before shooting out the resulting sound waves from his speakers. Speaker Banki is later upgraded to generate louder sound waves that can block most attacks. However, Speaker Banki’s one weakness was the (nonfunctional) speakers on his feet. He is the first to be scrapped by Engine-Oh Gunpherd, as it could break through the barrier. Voiced by Issei Futamata ( , Futamata Issei?).

Bombe Banki (, Bonbe Banki?, 7): A gas cylinder (, bonbe?, from the German bombe) Savage Water Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kegalesia in her plan to get rid of Engine-Oh, though Carrigator almost ruined it. To that end, he intentionally had himself defeated to enlarge and use his Red Rust Beam on Engine-Oh, defeating him. However, Bombe Banki ends up being the first to be scrapped by GunBir-Oh. Voiced by Masato Hirano ( , Hirano Masato?).

Boring Banki (, Bringu Banki?, 8): A boring machine (, bringu mashin?) Savage Land Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Yogostein to attack the city.

Kagami Banki (, Kagami Banki?, 10): A mirror (, kagami?) Barbaric Machine Beast created in by all three of the Pollution Ministers, tending to say “Mirror” in his sentences. Because of the pictures Lens Banki took before being destroyed, Kagami Banki can use the mirror on his chest to duplicate the Engines’ attacks with his “Mirror Effect”. After being recharged with Bikkurium, which took longer in his case, Kagami Banki reveals his true Land/Sky/Sea Form, possessing the powers of all three Pollution Ministers, using it in his “Mirror Bomb” attack. He is the first to be scrapped by Engine-Oh G6. Voiced by Junpei Morita ( , Morita Junpei?), previously the voice of Creator King Ryuuwon in GoGo Sentai Boukenger.

Antenna Banki (, Antena Banki?, 11): An antenna (, antenna?) Savage Sky Barbaric Machine Beast sent by Kitaneidas, it can interfere with television signals by sending his own special hypnotic ones to control anyone who saw a television getting that signal, brainwashing the masses into polluting the city while forcing the Go-ongers apart with what their desire the most save Gunpei.

Though tried to take advantage of his current state, Hatsuden loses it after listening to the others’ babbling and runs off to find Yogostein. When Yogostein retreated as his minion is exposed, Hatsuden Ssuke attempts to destroy the Go-ongers as Go-on Red. By then, Go-Ongers managed to revert this by shooting a special Ssuke Soul into Hatsuden Go-on Red with the Junction Rifle, returning the Barbaric Machine Beast back into his body. But now hampered by a cold that Ssuke had been suffering, Hatsuden Banki is scrapped by Engine-Oh G6. Voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama ( , Hiyama Nobuyuki?).

Hikigane Banki (, Hikigane Banki?, 13, movie): A trigger (, hikigane?) Savage Water Barbaric Machine Beast under Kegalesia, ranked as Gaiark’s top sniper and says “Gane” in his sentences. He was sent to take Bkorin back to Gego, whom he called “Boss” (, Aniki?) for stopping his attack without trouble.
