Scroll 43: The Super Combination and the Great Clash
Here we are,a t part two of this climactic battle. And in a reverse of the Fangarou three-parter, the conclusion to a Maekawa cliffhanger is handled by Miyashita. But this time, it’s the same director (I think), so there shouldn’t be too much of a clash in styles. With that said, on with the review.
We begin where last episode left off, but here, Shurikenger calls in Revolver Mammoth to save them from certain doom.
But it doesn’t last past the titles, as Sargain uses the Ikari no Ya to perform the Gokuro Kyogekiha, which downs Revovler Mamkoth, causing Shurikenger to invoke his deity.
TenraiSenpuujin tries to fight back with Ultima Storm, but Gaingain overpowers this, forcing them to retreat.
Sargain returns to the Centipede, where Furabijo gives him a flower. Sargain then shows off that the Ikari no Ya medal is glowing, which pleases Tau Zant.
Sargain then elaborates on this (And yes, the subbers did spell the name of the planet differently between the movie (Astram) and the show (Astrum). While different spellings are common among fans of Japanese media (dreamcastergirl’s Yodonna Redemption Arc pretty much spelled it as “Astrom”), this sub has been especially bad at consistency, given the indecision over the two Mcguffins having a definitive article and whether Jakanja are trying to corrupt, corrode or destroy Earth. Given the exact word, the second one is the only correct one).
Wendinu summarise what he’s talking about. Or rather, who.
When Satarakura points out that the Hurricanegers didn’t know anything about the Nageki no Yumi, Sandaaru points out there is likely someone above them.
At Ninja Base (and Shurikenger’s hangar), all of the Shinobi Machines are under maintenance.
Oboro states that the repairs of Revolver Mammoth have been left to “that person”, who Hamster Headmaster is currently meeting with.
Isshu and Yosuke talk about Ikari no Ya’s incredible power, before Ikkou and Nanami bring up that they mentioned another weapon by the name of Nageki no Yumi.
Elsewhere, Hamster Headmaster is shocked at what Master Gozen told him offscreen, before the latter tells us a story (and although he’s finally speaking, I cannot identify who is playing Master Gozen due to a voice modulator [sadly, I am not that one guy on RangerBoard who figured out that A-Squad Red was a girl], but he sounds like the narrator), which Hamster Headmaster comments on.
Master Gozen then orders Mugensai to ensure that Ikari no Ya isn’t used again. Unfortunately, Sargain is preparing to use it to search for Nageki no Yumi.
While everyone else is assured of Sargain’s victory, Satarakura thinks Sandaaru should get the glory of securing the weapon and killing the heroes. In the city, Gaingain reappears and summons the Ikari no Ya.
As the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers are forced to race to the scene without their Shinobi Machines, they instead appear riding their respective ground vehicles.
After buffeting Gaingain, Sargain leaves the Karakuri Giant to face his enemies on the ground. He quickly manages to gain the upper hand, managing to deflect everything thrown his way. Tau Zant then states what Sargain must do (even though the latter can’t hear him).
As the fight continues, the Hurricanegers decide to attack with the Triple Gadget… which Sargain destroys easily with his GanryuKen (the shot, not the Triple Gadget).
Sargain then blasts everyone with his finger lasers. Fortunately, the Shinobi Machines have been repaired and make their triumphant return. Sargain returns to Gaingain, facing down Senpuujin and Gouraijin. Both robots quickly prove outmatched, until Shurikenger and Tenkuujin reappear, with the three Karakuri Ginats forming TenraiSenpuujin once more. After a sword fight, which Gaingain manages to win out in due to its speed and mastery of the Ikari no Ya, Yosuke tries calling Revolver Mammoth, only for nothing to happen. And Gaingain still has the advantage over them. Luckily, Hamster Headmaster is here to clear everything up for Oboro. (And the same footage from episode 33 of Revolver Mammoth being imprinted with the six powers (Yosuke’s wind, Nanami’s water, Kouta’s ground, Ikkou’s darkness, Isshu’s light and Shurikenger’s fire) replays here).
Oboro passes this information onto a badly losing TenraiSenpuujin.
Everyone begins to pray, which unfortunately doesn’t stop Gaingain from attacking. But a brief malfunction does just the job.
Everyone’s prayers take the form of a giant spectral Ninjamisen playing Yosuke’s version of the melody (Which is now my new favourite shot of the series).
Revolver Mammoth emerges, now with added fancy light effects. It avoids Gaingain’s attack before TenraiSenpuujin mounts it.
It then summons, Sword Slasher, Goat Crusher, Tortoise Hammer, Plant Axe, Gatling Leo, Squid Attacker, Furaimaru, Spin Bee, Kabuto Spear, Catch Spider and Pitatto Hitode all at once (the one off promo items aren’t included in this).
All these then combine to form Revolver TenraiSenpuujin as the theme song kicks in.
As this happens, Sandaaru does to his faith in Sargain what Revolver TenraiSenpuujin is about to do to Gaingain.
Sure enough, the Earth Ninjas launch the Zettai Kyukyuku Ougi: Ultima Rainbow, which annihilates Gaingain with the power of all the Karakuri Balls.
The Ikari no Ya then turns back into a medal, which Yosuke leaps out to grab.
And since I didn’t capture a photo, I’ll have Wendinu explain what happened next.
As Furabijo fails Sargain, Tau Zant realises something.
Out in the wastelands, Sargain refuses to back down until he beats the Hurricanegers and gets the medal back. So he furiously yells for them to come and face him (I doubt they can hear you).
But instead of his intended opponent, he gains Sandaaru, who wants to settle their feud.
But Sandaaru has decided Sargain is too good to die by his katana… so he blows Sargain’s GanryuKen in half and stabs him with the blade.
Sargain tries pleading for his life, pointing out he has valuable knowledge of the Karakuri system. But this doesn’t work.
After making it clear he’s never liked Sargain, Sandaaru pulls out a knife and cuts Sargain in half, tiny bug and all (um, no comment).
The episode then ends with Sandaaru turning around and walking away as Sargain’s remains explode.
Next time: The Jakanja attack the Hurricanegers and Gouraigers to avenge Sargain (evidently, they missed the last scene of this episode), Masaru Shishido (Better known as Goro Hoshino/OhRed from Choriki Sentai Ohranger) guest stars (Lets not kid ourselves, we know who he’s playing) and a surprise new combatant appears.
This and more in “Scroll 44: Master Gozen and the Misfortune Fan Beast” (with the trailer ending on Yosuke’s line for next week imposed over a shot of this woman).
Final thoughts: I loved this episode. Granted, it’s hard to make me hate a “late season sell as many toys as possible” episode (only Kiramager has done that so far) and Revolver TenraiSenpuujin is exactly the kind of final combination I expect from this show. And I like the twist that it’s Sandaaru that disposes of Sargain rather than the heroes (not least for what Power Rangers did with it). And I’ve realised, based on Master Gozen’s story, and on the number of other ninja Toei heroes (Ninja Captor, DynaBlack, Kamen Rider ZX, Yellow Mask, the cast of Jiraiya, Kakuranger, Ninninger, Kamen Rider Fuma, Kamen Riders Shinobi and Hattari and Kamen Rider Kenzan) that Hurricaneger is, if you buy into the idea of one big extended universe for Toei’s heroes (which I don’t, personally), then Hurricaneger is one of the most important series lore wise. Which makes how little attention it gets from the wider fan base startling, to say the least.
