13	* DemonOfHumanOrigin: Almost all of the Ayakashi and the lieutenants on the Rokumon Junk are the tainted souls of humans whose attachments to life keep them from passing on. The sole exception to this is Dōkoku himself, who was seemingly spat out of the Sanzu River itself as the living embodiment of hatred and rage.
14	* StandardEvilOrganizationSquad: The commanders of the Gedoshu: Dokoku, Shitari, Dayu and Akumaro, with Juzo sometimes joining in.
15	* {{Yokai}}: They are each based on classical mythological Japanese monsters, and InUniverse are stated to be the origin of many of the myths surrounding them.

29	Chimatsuri Dōkoku is the [[BigBad leader]] of the [[{{Yokai}} Gedoshu]], armed with the [[CoolSword Shōryū Bakuzantō , the Kōryū Gaiseitō ]], and the power to seal his fellow Gedoshu. He is easily angered and his comrades [[BadBoss often suffer because of its intensity]]. The only things that can calm his volcanic temper are [[TheAlcoholic sake]] (rice wine) and whenever Usukawa Dayū plays her shamisen.
30
31	-----
32
33	* TheAlcoholic: To the point where chugging down sake is the only thing he does in most episodes.
34	* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: By far and away the strongest Gedoshu in the series, with power that outstrips all of his underlings [[spoiler:as he demonstrates to Akumaro.]]
35	* BadBoss: Dokoku is verbally abusive to all of his underlings, and has a well-earned reputation for killing any of his minions who can not prove their helpfulness to him, whether through [[YouHaveFailedMe failure]], or [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness being of no further use to his plans]]. Even so, Dokoku doesn't play this trope straight, as he also he's seen giving a pep-talk to a maimed Ayakashi, and has been talked out of killing failed underlings on at least two occasions.
36	* {{BFS}}: The Shoryu Bakuzanto, which replaces his original katana.
37	* BigBad: He's the leader of the Gedoshu and the one who all of them act in the name of. He's pretty inactive compared to other Big Bads, doing little apart from drinking sake and lashing out at his minions, but when necessary he'll make a show of force to demonstrate just why he has the role.
38	* DarkLordOnLifeSupport: [[spoiler:Following his rampage against the Shinkengers, he was dried out so much that he needed to soak in the Sanzu River for six episodes, and even then, he only came back because of a massive surge to the river]].
39	* DevourTheDragon: [[spoiler:Kills a [[ShootTheDog mortally wounded Dayu]] and absorbs her, allowing him to resist the seal against him. Though Dayu allowed him to do so, and he was visibly upset when she died.]]
40	* TheDreaded: Considering Rintaro Nishi is the voice of Shadam, Dairanger audiences might wonder whether Dokoku is going to pull off some ridiculous KickTheDog stunts to parents and children. We can thank our lucky stars he doesn't. [[spoiler:Slightly subverted - he steps on Dayu's remnants, but he did show signs of genuine remorse]].
41	* [[DrowningMySorrows Drowning My Rage]]: Regularly drinks sake. The reason why is because he needs it and Dayu's shamisen to soothe his piercing headaches. In fact, he even ''fell asleep after raging from Juzo's subtle mockery while drinking too much.''
42	* EvilOverlord: The brutal ruler of a race of demons bent on conquering the human world.
43	* HairTriggerTemper: He makes [[Series/JukenSentaiGekiranger Maku]] seem pale in comparison.
44	* LargeHam: Compared to the rest of the regular villains, who are incredibly understated, Rintaro Nishi is clearly having a blast with this role.
45	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: His name in eastern order translates to “Bloodbath Lamentation”.
46	* OrcusOnHisThrone: Out of the whole series, there are only '''3''' Acts where he does something other than chugging down sake. [[spoiler:[[JustifiedTrope The reason being that he dries up much faster than any other Gedoushuu]].]]

59	Usukawa Dayū is the right hand of [[BigBad Chimatsuri Dōkoku]] and the [[TheSmurfettePrinciple only regular female Gedoushu]]. She perpetually plays her [[InstrumentOfMurder Shamisen Of Murder]] while lounging around. Dayū is also the only one Dōkoku [[MoralityPet is kind to]], provided she knows her place as his obedient and unquestioning servant.
60
61	-----
62	* EvilCounterpart: To Mako. Both are the ladylike supmbordinate for their respective leader (Takeru for Mako and Doukoku for Dayu). If Mako represents the YamatoNadeshiko (her cooking skills aside), in opposite Human Dayu was a Yandere.
63	* HerHeartWillGoOn: [[spoiler:She is able to finally let go of her past and Shinza.]]
64	* InstrumentOfMurder: Her Shamisen.
65	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only main female Gedoushuu.
66	* WasOnceAMan: [[spoiler:Formerly a human woman named Usuyuki.]]
67	* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: In Dayū’s backstory, she was a normal human woman named Usuyuki. She was madly in love with a man named Shinza, who did not love her. Usuyuki crashes Shinza's wedding and sets the venue on fire. When a dying Shinza strains to reach for his unconscious bride, Usuyuki loses it and pulls him to herself. Proclaiming that if she can’t have Shinza in life, she’ll have him in death, Usuyuki offers her soul to the Gedoushu. She is then transformed into Usukawa Dayū, with poor Shinza bound to her as her shamisen.]]

79
80	Shitari of the Bones is both TheDragon to Chimatsuri Dōkoku and the Gedoshu's [[TheEvilGenius strategist]] who saw humans as mere specimens for his research.
81
82	[[spoiler:[[NotQuiteDead He was initially thought to have died during the Shinkenger finale]]. However, he survives the Rokumon Junk's sinking and reappears in ''Goseiger vs. Shinkenger'', where he assists Buredoran of the Chimatsuri. After learning of Buredoran's true intensions, however, Shitari escapes and forms an army of [[PaletteSwap black versions]] of the Nanashi and Nosakamata to regain the Sanzu River's water. Unfortunately, before he could put his plan into action, he is stopped by the ''Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger'', who quickly destroy his army and then Shitari himself after assuming the forms of [[Series/TokusouSentaiDekaranger the]] [[Series/MahouSentaiMagiranger previous]] [[Series/GoGoSentaiBoukenger five]] [[Series/JukenSentaiGekiranger Red]] [[Series/EngineSentaiGoOnger Sentai warriors.]]]]
83
84	----
85	* AlwaysNeedWhatYouGaveUp: [[spoiler:He sacrificed his second life (which causes Gedoushouu to grow) in order to power up Oborojime. This comes back to bit him ''hard'' when he's taken out by the Gokaigers and unable to revive]].
86	* BadassBookworm: Despite usually staying on the junk and studying old records, he is able to hold his own quite well the few times he directly engages in battle.
87	* ButtMonkey: Nothing goes right for him at all in ''Goseiger vs. Shinkenger'', as Brajira plays him for a fiddle and steals the Sanzu's waters for his nefarious plans even swaying most of the remaining Ayakashi to his side. When he tries creating stronger troops loyal to him to defeat Brajira, the Gokaigers destroy them and him for good measure; he even lampshades his own bad luck before his death.
88	-->'''Shitari:''' How can I end like this?! ''[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Impossible!]]''
89	* {{Cthulhumanoid}}: Very inspired by the classic Old God.
90	* CombatTentacles: Though he rarely fights, he can employ these to defend himself.
91	* EvilGenius: The brains of the Ayakashi, he is the one making up plans to flood the world with the Sanzu River.
92	* EvilWizard: Specializes in magic, smarts and trickery over brute force.
93	* OldRetainer: Serves as this to Dokoku as his oldest and most loyal enforcer.
94	* TheStrategist: As the brains of the Ayakashi and with Dokoku [[OrcusOnHisThrone sitting on his throne]], Shitari is the one in charge of making sure the Ayakashi have a plan to conquer the world.
95	* UndyingLoyalty: To Dokoku.

105
106	Sujigarano Akumaro is an unusually polite and mysterious Gedoshu who surfaces after Dōkoku’s power boost. An expert [[schemer]] with a [[SlasherSmile perpetual grin]], he usurps Shitari as Dokoku's right-hand man and has a specific army of Ayakashi loyal only to him, which includes [[BloodKnight Fuwa]] [[TheRival Jūzō]] and Usukawa Dayū. Eventually Akumaro reveals himself to have much darker ambitions than his fellow Gedoshu.
107
108	-----
109
110	* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:His death gave him the eternal suffering he always wanted - and he gladly takes it.]]
111	* BigBadEnsemble: While he's TheDragon to Dokoku, Akumaro spends much of the series pursuing an agenda entirely unrelated to Dokoku and the other Gedoshu's goals. [[spoiler:Once he makes his treachery known, he goes rogue and briefly becomes the main threat... before being defeated and leaving Dokoku the undisputed Big Bad.]]
112	* BrainsAndBondage: His massive claws can extend to attack opponents, and he's quite the capable schemer.
113	* TheChessmaster: He spends most of his tenure carefully laying out the pieces for his evil plan, all while most of the other Gedoshu are none the wiser.
114	* TheCorrupter: [[spoiler: He tried to be this to Juzo, only for him to learn the hard way that he is already a monster who puts his own bloodlust over his own family.]]
115	* DieLaughing: [[spoiler:He spends his final moments in ecstasy, finally getting to taste the hell and suffering he sought.]]
116	* TheDragon: Akumaro commands a whole slew of personal Ayakashi and gets away with screwing Doukoku once. That speaks a lot about his power.
117	* DragonWithAnAgenda: He harbors even darker ambitions than his rage-filled boss.
118	* EnigmaticMinion: It's clear from the moment Akumaro appears that there's more to him than meets the eye, and that he has his own plans apart from the rest of the Gedoshu. What exactly these plans are is unrevealed up until much later on.
119	* EvilSorcerer: He's good at what can be considered a Gedoushu UsefulNotes/{{Onmyodo}}.
120	* EvilerThanThou:
121	** Proves himself worse than [[spoiler:his fellow Gedoshu with his EvilPlan, which would see both Earth and the Sanzu River caught in the crossfire.]]
122	** Also [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope subverted massively]]. Even though he caused the deaths of Juzo's family, Juzo doesn't give a shit about his family's death and pulls an EvilerThanThou. Akumaro is so disgustingly impressed that he compliments Juzo as a "true Gedou", which is a lot coming from someone just as depraved as him.]]
123	* TheHeavy: Due to Dokoku playing OrcusOnHisThrone for most of the series, Akumaro assumes this role once he shows up and becomes the most proactive villain the Shinkengers have to face.
124	* FauxAffablyEvil: He speaks politely when it's clear he is a very dark character.
125	* {{Hedonist}}: To ridiculous sadomasochistic levels, [[spoiler:with his ]].
126	* HellOnEarth: Around his debut point, he mentions that he wishes to create it. [[spoiler:Turns out that [[ChekhovsGun he means it literally]] when he reveals his plan to reverse Hell and Earth, even betraying his fellow Gedoushu to make it happen.]]
127	* HellSeeker: He's unusually excited at the idea of getting to experience Hell. It turns out later on this is due to [[spoiler:his status as a half-human Ayakashi means he could never truly get to experience it.]]
128	* {{Irony}}: Claims he has nothing left worth living for once his plan fails, but he gets his wish anyways.
129	* KnightOfCerebus: His plans are even more elaborate than the one's Shitari devises and he [[spoiler:orchestrated Fuuwa Juzo's StartOfDarkness by murdering his parents]].
130	* KnowWhenToFoldEm: He's strong [[spoiler:but he knows better than to fight Dokoku.]]
131	* LaughingMad: Especially during his final moments.
132	* NoblewomansLaugh: "Hoh hoh hoh..."
133	* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:His plans to enact HellOnEarth would see even his fellow Ayakashi caught in the crossfire.]]
134	* TheStarscream: [[spoiler:He's not necessarily out to usurp Dokoku, but he plots to eventually betray the Gedoshu and his plans wouldn't see his former allies spared.]]

153
154	-----
155	* BloodKnight: Probably the darkest, sickest take on this trope in the franchise's history. ALL he cares about is fighting and killing. [[spoiler:Akumaro's plan with him fails because he actually thought he cared about something else.]]
156	* TheBrute: He doesn't take much attention in strategies or such, as all he cares about is slicing people up.
157	* TheCorrupter: Juzo spends the entire show trying his hardest to get Takeru to fall to Gedou and become his ideal opponent.
158	* DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: Of the many benevolent tropes often associated with TheRival. His desire for a DuelToTheDeath with Takeru is first and foremost. Any seemingly benevolent actions he performs throughout the series, like saving Takeru or [[spoiler:preventing Akumaro's plan for HellOnEarth]], is merely just to get that fight and anything else is not his concern in the slightest. His final moments involve him trying to get Takeru to fall to Gedou just like him so he'd have someone to fight forever, showing that while he is not necessarily aligned with them, he is a Gedoushu through and through.
159	* EvilerThanThou: [[spoiler:Pulls this on Akumaro, thwarting his grand plan purely because it got in the way of his desire to have a showdown with Takeru.]]
160	* {{Expy}}: Of Jin from ''Series/GoseiSentaiDairanger'', only without any of Jin's NobleDemon qualities.
161	* FauxAffablyEvil: He talks to others such as Takeru like a soft-spoken and polite human being, even as he is readying his blade for a sadistic, bloodlust-motivated fight.
162	* MasterSwordsman: He was the leader of a samurai clan after all... Even Takeru has difficulty in beating him.
163	* PetTheDog: He actually likes Genta's sushi, and even allowed him to leave with Takeru once he found their location... ''just because he genuinely enjoyed it that much.''
164	* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: The lengths he goes through to get a DuelToTheDeath with Takeru are astounding. He willingly backstabs top Gedoushu like Dokoku and Akumaro, is willing to cut down Jii when he tries to stop the battle, and even tries to goad Takeru into becoming a Gedoushu to ensure that his DuelToTheDeath with Takeru would never end.
165	* PragmaticVillainy:
166	** He subverts the NobleDemon he would otherwise be by his desire to fight a worthy opponent for his own pleasure. None of what he does to spare or save Takeru is out of any honor or altruism, only to make sure the fight is more thrilling.
167	** As for stopping Akumaro's HellOnEarth plan, rather than a case of having standards it shows how beyond redemption he is. Also, you can't have a sword duel if the world is destroyed or merged with a place of eternal suffering.
168	* TheRival: To Takeru.
169	* {{Sadist}}: If his preoccupation with fighting and killing isn't any indication of this.
170	* VillainousRescue: Since Juzo is interested to fight Takeru and considers him [[WorthyOpponent worthy for his blade and thirst to fight]].
