Gokaiger Episode 20 Screen Captures

My Japanese isn't great but I think I got an idea about what was said in this episode. It appears as if Gai is a big fan of Hyuuga and asks for his autograph. Hyuuga asks for his Gokai Silver powers, Gai does contemplate this but ultimately after seeing Marvelous fight without powers against MagiMother-tachi (and company), Gai decides to not give his powers and it looks as if it was a test of some sort. Basco even tried to steal energy from Hyuuga using his trumpet (in reverse I think).






Gokaiger as Gingaman


It was a trip to see the Sixth Rangers beat up Kuro Kishi in Gold Mode Final Wave attack.



Basco takes those three keys back.

Kuro Kishi key returns to Hyuuga but he gives it to Gai.

Super Sentai: Non-Color Teammate Names

I'm counting only select Extra Heroes. Whole teams that didn't have colors in their names: JAKQ, Changeman, Zyuranger, and Dairanger. I might be missing some teams. I think I am counting the heroes with the word from their team in their names, except for those in Hurricanger.

King Ranger
The Ohrangers had colors in their names, Toei consider him a Black Ranger. The kanji symbol of King is on his head and belt.

Signalman
In Carranger, he was an extra hero but anyway, he didn't have 'Racer' in their name.

Time Fire
I think he was the first team member to not have a color name in a team that had color names.

Goraijer
The Hurricanger had color names, but the Goraijer didn't, they had names of their insects: Kabuto Raijer and Kuwagatas Raijer. Some people were correcting me and I thought I made it clear, I guess not. I admit that maybe my wording was off. I didn't think the Goraijer had color names, because why the hell I would put it here in the first place?

Shurikenger
Shuriken is the star shape.

AbareKiller
First name is for me, culturally, is arguably the American team didn't want to use. Fine for Japan, but not for America. But a cool name none the less. But I wouldn't want kids saying 'Killer.'

AbareMax
Just a power-up but treated toy-wise as a sixth ranger.

DekaBreak
I still don't know what Break refers to.

DekaMaster
'Master' of them all, makes sense. Also, funny cause he's a dog. He's his own master.

Deka Swan
She's a swan and it's a swan.

Deka Bright
Cool name ever.

Magi Shine
He's shiny and his name is shine.

Magi Mother
She was a mother, obviously but I don't know, just a mother? She was a warrior, not just a mother.

GekiChopper
He can chop things.

GoseiKnight
Toei counts him as a Silver Ranger and doesn't have 'Silver' in his name and suit seemed the most like an Extra Hero.

Non-Color Ranger Names

I was kinda bored, I meant to do this before:
Phantom Ranger
The first 'Ranger' to have a name without a color and just another word. Phantom obviously is not a color, but meaning a ghostly apiration (sp).

Magna Defender
No matter if he was a Ranger or not, but he took the spot and even when Mike donned the armor, he still had the same name. I still have no idea what a Magna is and why it would need defending.

Titanium Ranger
Titanium is a chemical element and transition metal with a silver color.

Quantum Ranger
In physics, a quantum (plural: quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity involved in an interaction. He is the first Red Ranger to not have 'Red' as a title.

Lunar Wolf Ranger
He is the first and not last Silver Ranger to have a non-color name. This in my own opinion that was the first name to be accurate.

Triassic Ranger
Just a power-up but treated toy-wise as a sixth ranger. The Triassic is a geologic period that extended from about 250 to 200 Mya (million years ago). Styracosaurus was from the Cretaceous Period and his megazord was called Mezodon for some reason.

Omega Ranger
Omega is from the Greek Alphabet meaning 'Last.' My bad, I said Latin.

Shadow Ranger
How was he shadow-y? Because of his dark colors?

Kat Ranger
It has orange but considered to be a White Ranger, she had orange, white and black. She was obviously called 'Kat' for her character Kat.

Nova Ranger
Maybe because she only appeared in one episode. Omega is a Latin symbol, Nova is not, Nova is an astrological phenomenon.

Solaris Knight
Solaris clearly meaning the sun. With 'Knight' it is debated if he was a Ranger but he indeed was one.

Mercury Ranger
The Mercury they refer to is a chemical element that is silver-y.

Elephant, Bat, and Shark Rangers
All the Jungle Fury Rangers had animal names including Wolf Ranger and Rhino Ranger.
