6	''Seijū Sentai Gingaman'' (Star Beast Squadron Gingaman[[note]]''Ginga'' is the Japanese word for "galaxy", but it's mainly a reference to the forest where the main characters comes from.[[/note]]) is the twenty-second installment in the ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' series, running from 1998 to 1999. The title song was performed by Ryu Kisami.
7
8	3,000 years ago, the evil SpacePirates gang, the Balban, attempted to conquer Earth. They were foiled and imprisoned by the mystical Starbeasts and their human companions, the Gingamen of Ginga Forest. Since then, the mantle of the Gingamen was passed down through the generations of Ginga Forest. On the day of the appointment of the 133rd generation, an undersea earthquake releases the Balban from their imprisonment. In their attempt to kill the newest Gingamen, Hyūga, the appointed Ginga Red, is swallowed up in the Earth. Before he falls in, he passes on the duty to his brother, Ryōma. The Gingamen thus begin their mission to foil the Balban's scheme to revive Daitanix, the monster whose back houses the Balban's castle.

13	----
14	!!'''Recurring''' Super Sentai tropes:
15
16	* AllYourPowersCombined: In addition to the team attacks, [[spoiler: Iliess, in a last-ditch effort, absorbed the souls of her fallen monsters to achieve a OneWingedAngel form. [[KilledOffForReal Take a guess on how she does in the fight]]]].
17	* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: "''Ginga Tensei!''"[[note]]"Galactic Reincarnation!" (or Rebirth, depending on the translation)[[/note]]
18	** Hyūga: "''Kishi Tensei!''"[[note]]"Knight Reincarnation!"[[/note]]
19	* CallingYourAttacks
20	* ChainedHeat: Occurs in episode 36 when Hayate & Haruhiko get their hands glued together. The calm warrior Hayate and bumbling muggle dad Haruhiko make a strange and tricky situation.
21	* ColorCharacter: Another "[team prefix] [English color]" Sentai. Also played straight for the Black Knight.
22	* CoolBike: Ginga Red's Galeopulser.
23	* {{Crossover}}: ''[[Film/SeijuuSentaiGingamanVsMegaranger Gingaman vs. Megaranger]]''
24
25	* CustomUniform: The white accents of the suits have a black wavy stripe, akin to [[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} Charlie Brown]].
26	* EvilWillFail: Balban's setup of four generals leading their own armies, with only one allowed to attack at a time, leads to a lot of nasty internal politics and backstabbing that gets many Balban members killed.
27	** The irony here is that [[WeAreStrugglingTogether the constant infighting]] is what caused the Balban to be defeated the first time, so Zahab enforced the SortingAlgorithmOfEvil in hopes of not having this happen again.
28	* EyeCatch: As a callback to the Showa Sentai era, there's drawn eyecatches of the Gingamen with Gingaioh and their Star Beasts.
29	* FinishingMove: They go through several.
30	* FiveManBand
31	** TheLeader: Ryōma
32	** TheLancer: Hikaru
33	** TheSmartGuy: Hayate
34	** TheBigGuy: Gōki
35	** TheHeart: Saya
36	%% * HomeBase: The five Gingamen originally came from the Ginga Forest, but after it was petrified, they are offered a place to stay at the Silver Star Riding Club and plant a seed there, which ended up becoming a room of its own and their main base of operations.
37	* HumongousMecha:
38	** AMechByAnyOtherName: The Star Beasts (''Seijū'') and its three categories: the Silver Star Beasts (''Ginseijū'', the components of Gingaioh), the Heavy Star Beast (''Jūseijū'', a category exclusive to Bulltaurus) and the Steel Star Beasts (''Kōseijū'', robots built from the remains of defeated Star Beasts, composed of Giga Bitus, Giga Phoenix and Giga Rhinos).
39	** AnimalMecha: The Silver Star Beasts and the Bulltaurus. Subverted with the Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix, which were Star Beasts that were cursed into the form of humanoid mechas and are formed from the combination of five land-based vehicles and five air-based vehicles respectively. The Giga Bitus was a shark that was turned into a giant transforming mecha carrier, but still resembles a shark in one of its modes.
40	** MechanicalLifeforms: All the Star Beasts are living animals (or at least they were originally), while Jūkishi (Heavy Knight) is actually Kurokishi enlarged to giant size.
41	** CombiningMecha: Notably, this marks the first occasion of having four combining robots at the same time. Uniquely, none of the mecha actually combine with one another, resulting in one of the least-complex mecha combination schemes in Sentai until ''Series/MahouSentaiMagiranger''.
42	*** Gingaleon + Gingalcon + Gingarilla + Gingaverick + Gingat = Gingaioh
43	*** Jūkishi + Goutaurus = Bulltaurus
44	*** Giga Wheel 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = Giga Rhinos
45	*** Giga Wing 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = Giga Phoenix
46	** TransformingMecha: The Giga Bitus, a large-sized Steel Star Beast which transforms from a shark-shaped Cruiser Mode to a humanoid-shaped Scramble Mode.
47	** MechaExpansionPack: Two in particular.
48	*** Chōsōkō ("Super Armor Shine") Gingaioh, although it isn't really a new combination as it is a SuperMode that is introduced when the actual team gets theirs.
49	*** Giga Bitus, which serves as a mecha carrier for the components of the Giga Rhinos and Giga Phoenix (a throwback to the mecha carriers from the 80s Sentai shows).
50	* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: ''Gingaman'' is the first Super Sentai to start naming their episode numbers, with every episode being called a "Chapter", while the episode name being written in a "X" of "Y"[[note]]In Japanese, "''Y no X''"[[/note]] format.
51	* InTheNameOfTheMoon:
52	--> '''[[red:Red]]''': "Ginga Red: Ryōma!"
53	--> '''[[green:Green]]''': "Ginga Green: Hayate!"
54	--> '''[[blue:Blue]]''': "Ginga Blue: Gōki!"
55	--> '''[[gold:Yellow]]''': "Ginga Yellow: Hikaru!"
56	--> '''[[pink:Pink]]''': "Ginga Pink: Saya!"
57	--> '''Black''': "Black Knight: Hyūga!"
58	--> '''[[red:Red]]''': "The legendary blade that slices through the galaxy! Seijū Sentai!"
59	--> '''All''': "Gingaman!"
60	* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Ryōma receives the Galeopulsar, a mighty motorcycle, while [[spoiler: his flame power proves essential to defeat the Earth Beast in the finale]].
61	* MakeMyMonsterGrow: The Balban Majin drink from a flask of "Balban Extract" to grow to giant size and give the Gingamen trouble, necessitating the use of their mecha to fight them. The Balban Extract also slowly kills them, neatly explaining why they don't drink it [[GodzillaThreshold until they're on the verge of death already]].
62	* MinidressOfPower: Part of Ginga Pink's costume.
63	* MonsterOfTheWeek: The Balban Majin, who are divided into several groups base don their generals.
64	* {{Mooks}}: The Seamen Yartots.
65	* NoOntologicalInertia: Budoh's and Illness's Majin will have their effects instantly negated once they are either defeated or the object they're using get destroyed.
66	* OrcusOnHisThrone: Balban Pirates Captain Zahab spends the majority of his time at his headquarters commanding his crew with the only times he gets out of it being the first episode and the final episode.
67	* OnTheNextEpisodeOfCatchPhrase: "And now, another page of the legend will be revealed."
68	* ResetButton: Any damage Balban does to the city get undone after each episode. This is particularly noteworthy in episodes 16 and 17 where the Balban destroy large portions of the earth with earthquakes and blowing up multiple skyscrapers in the city respectively.
69	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Only one girl again. From this point onward, ''Super Sentai'' would have only one female member per team for the next five years, forcing the ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' [[Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy adaptations of this show]] and the next three to have a {{gender flip}}ped Yellow Ranger in order to maintain the [[TwoGirlsToATeam two girl quota]].
70	* SuperMode: Properly introduced this trope to ''Super Sentai'' with the Beast Armor Shine.[[note]]Technically ''Series/ChikyuuSentaiFiveman'' already did it with the Five Tector Armor but that was introduced in the late half of the series and used very sparingly while the Beast Armor Shine marked the first time a SuperMode was used constantly and debuted relatively earlier.[[/note]]
71	* SupervillainLair: The Rowdy Invincible Castle, which is first situated atop Daitanix, and then on the Earth Beast.
72	* ThemeMusicPowerUp: The show's theme usually plays over the Gingamen pulling all the stops to defeat the Majin of the week and winning.
73	* TransformationTrinket: The Ginga Brace, which is activated by turning a dial to one's respective color. Meanwhile, the Kiba blades can also transform the Seijuu into [=GinSeijuu=].
74	* VillainsActHeroesReact: As is the norm for ''Super Sentai'', we generally have the Balban sending out a MOTW with an EvilPlan OnceAnEpisode, with our heroes then arriving on the scene to stop them.
75	%%** CoolSword: The [=SeiJuuKen=].[[note]]''Star Beast Sword''[[/note]]
76	%%** SwissArmyWeapon: The Kiba Blades can transform into various weapon modes. The standard issue formation for each %Gingaman:
77	%%*** Ryōma: [[CoolSword Kiba Cutter]]
78	%%*** Hayate: Kiba Shot
79	%%*** Gōki: [[WolverineClaws Kiba Claw]]
80	%%*** Hikaru: [[DualWielding Kiba]] [[DeviousDaggers Knives]]
81	%%*** Saya: [[TheStraightAndArrowPath Kiba Arrow]]
82	%%** Black Knight: [[SwissArmyWeapon Bull Riot]][[note]][[CoolSword Sword]] and Rifle Modes. This is also Hyuuga's TransformationTrinket.[[/note]] and Knight Axe.
83	----
84
85	!!Tropes specific to Seijuu Sentai Gingaman:
86
87	* AchillesHeel: [[spoiler: Zahab possessed immortality thanks to the Star Soul Jewel where his heart should be. He later moved it to the wheel on his chest, where it (and eventually, him) were destroyed.]]

89	%%* AnimalMotifs
90	%%** GentleGorilla: Gingarilla

92	%%** BrutishBulls: Bull Taurus
93	%%** MegaNeko: Gingat
94	%%** OurDragonsAreDifferent: Gingalcon
95	%%** ThePhoenix: Giga Phoenix
96	%%** RhinoRampage: Giga Rhinos
97	%%** ThreateningShark: Giga Bitus
98	%%** NobleWolf: Gingaverick
99	* AnimalThemedFightingStyle: Each Ranger has a fighting style based on the individual animal their helmets and Starbeasts are based on.
100	* ArmyOfThievesAndWhores: The Balban are made up of various criminals and mercenaries
101	* ArtifactTitle: The name of the [=BullTaurus=] mecha comes from a combination of ''Bull'' Black (the original Black Knight) and Giga ''Taurus''. It loses its meaning once Hyuga becomes the new Black Knight.
102	* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: A MonsterOfTheWeek accidentally brings Saya up to giant-size. She doesn't take it that well.
103	* BigCreepyCrawlies: [[BadassBiker Sambash's]] {{M\|onsterOfTheWeek}}ajin are modeled after various invertebrates.
104	* BigEater: Hikaru.
105	* BilingualBonus: Gingaverick, while the spelling suggests a pun on "maverick", is also a pun on the similarly-pronounced-in-Japanese "wilk", the Polish word for wolf.
106	* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: The process of mechanizing Ginga Rhinos and Ginga Phoenix involves dismembering them into five parts each [[AndIMustScream when they are still alive]]]].
107	* BreastAttack: [[spoiler:In Chapter 31, Shelinda was slashed on her breast by Hayate's UnstoppableRage, believing that she killed Yuuta.]] She, of course, doesn't take it very well.
108	* CatchPhrase: Every of Budo's monsters will say "I will have the final roar!" before enlarging themselves with Balban Extract. Iliess' monsters go with "Iliess' Demon clan members are stubborn!", whereas Batobass' monsters go with "Change of plan!"
109	* ChainmailBikini: Shelinda ''literally'' wearing bikini.
110	* CoolHorse: The Gingamen had their own horses.
111	* CoolMask: A recurring motif in [[EvilSorcerer Illies']] Majin.
112	* {{Cyborg}}: [[spoiler: The Steel Starbeasts (Ginga Rhinos, Ginga Phoenix and Giga Bitus ended up being this, courtesy to Biznella]].
113	* CurbStompBattle: Played with. [[spoiler: The Balban finally succeed in reviving Daitanix, and it wipes the floor with Gingaman... only to find that three thousand years of dormancy have taken a toll on it. Daitanix's body is slowly rotting away, forcing the Balban to abandon it to die.]]
114	* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler: Hyūga made one with Bucrates to save Gō Taurus which resulted him in losing his Earth power. This resulted in little tragedy: he got a Cool Axe, and ultimately his Earth Power back by the finale.]]
115	* DishingOutDirt: Sort-of. A MonsterOfTheWeek uses a bag of [[StuffBlowingUp explosive]] sand as his weapon.
116	* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler: After Sambash fails to revive Daitanix for the umpteenth time, he drives himself off a cliff.]]
117	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In episode 4, the Gingaman, minus Hikaru, used unique personal weapons to fight the Balban; A blowgun for Hayate, a whip for Gouki, a slingshot for Saya, and a boomerang for Ryoma. These weapons were intended to be their main weapons while they are out of costume but, besides the blowgun, they are never used again. They also used a team technique where they changed the time of day from night to noon, which was never again used after this episode.
118	* EatenAlive: [[spoiler: This is Battobas's final fate, [[{{Irony}} devoured by the Earth Demon Beast after helping it to grow to full size]].]]
119	* ElementalPowers:
120	** PlayingWithFire - Ryōma [[spoiler: and Hyūga, although he doesn't use it that much]].
121	** BlowYouAway - Hayate
122	** MakingASplash - Gōki
123	** ShockAndAwe - Hikaru
124	** PetalPower - Saya
125	* FieryLion: [=GingaLeon=] is able to breathe fire as his main form of attack.
126	* GangOfHats: The Balban generals' monsters all follow a specific theme. Sambash's are invertebrates who dress like Bikers, Budoh's are sea creatures in feudal Japanese attire, Iliess's are mythological magic users and Battobas' are soldiers modeled after weapons and warriors.
127	* GratuitousEnglish: The opening theme has an English version. While Masato Shimon's English skills are a bit wonky (it should be noted he has a degree in English studies however), they aren't the worst out there. His accent makes some of the lines difficult to understand, however.
128	* {{Greed}}: Justified since they're SpacePirates after all but Iliess's eventually lead to her arranging Budoh's death to gain both General Status and monetary award.
129	* ImmortalityImmorality: Captain Zahab has Daitanix devour the cores of planets, converting them into Star Soul Jewels that keep he and his crew alive (barring being killed off).
130	* InstrumentOfMurder: One [[MonsterOfTheWeek Majin's]] shamisen can fire bullets, is effective as a bludgeoning weapon and is used to melt the ground to find the Lights of Ginga.
131	* IShouldWriteABookAboutThis: One of the people closest to the Gingamen is Haruhiko Aoyama who is a children's book author. He sometimes makes drawings and writes about the adventures as they happen. He eventually published the Gingaman's story as a book for kids, which has become well known by the time of the vs movie.
132	* ItsPersonal: The first Black Knight's brother died at the hands of the Balban eons ago, which motivates him to revenge.
133	* JapaneseBeetleBrothers: [[MonsterOfTheWeek Tagredor and Torbador]]
134	* KarmicDeath:
135	** Biznella is killed by Ginga Rhinos and Ginga Phoenix, the very Starbeasts he captured and mechanized 3,000 years ago.
136	** Battobas brings the Earth Beast up to giant size, but it quickly devours him.
137	** [[spoiler:At the same time, Bucrates is killed by Shelinda for his part in causing the death of her crush, Budoh, and betraying Zahab.]]
138	* LastVillainStand: After his entire crew is wiped out and the Earth Beast is destroyed by the Gingaman, Zahab faces the Gingaman in one FinalBattle. However, he makes it clear that even on his own, his ambitions would continue, as he stated his intent to destroy and corrupt the Earth to create a new monster after killing the Gingaman.
139	* LegacyCharacter:
140	** The Gingamen in the show are the 133rd Generation of the original warriors bearing the same name.
141	** Hyuuga is the second Black Knight, the first being Bull Black.
142	* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: With Saya, the bubbly and cheerful as Light and Shelinda the cruel and devious one as Dark. Although both of them never see each other personally (Shelinda has rivalary with Hayate instead.), they still follow the [[SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains dress code]].
143	* LimitedWardrobe: The Gingamen are always seen wearing the same clothes throughout the show. Hyuuga, however, gets a new set of threads after being released from Bull Black's control.
144	* MadeOfIndestructium:
145	** Bandai's DX [=GingaiOh=] is mostly made of die-cast metal and is very sturdy.
146	** Sadly subverted for DX [=GigaPhoenix=], which has been known to suffer from Gold Plastic Syndrome.
147	* MidSeasonUpgrade: The Lights of Ginga armor for both the Gingamen ''and'' Gingaioh.
148	* MistakenIdentity: When Hikaru catches a burglar snatching a purse at the beginning of Chapter 8, he gets caught by Shizuko, who mistakes him as the burglar and beats him. Luckily, the misunderstanding is cleared up.
149	* MultiArmedAndDangerous: A MonsterOfTheWeek modeled after Myth/HinduMythology can stretch these at will.
150	* MusicalAssassin: A Cicada MonsterOfTheWeek intended to use noise to awaken Daitanix, and used his speakers to deafen the Gingamen.
151	* MythologyGag
152	** Several to Series/ChikyuuSentaiFiveman, the titular team named after the Galaxy Sentai Gingaman QuirkyMinibossSquad and their Juusoukou a homage to the Fivemen's Five Tector armor while the antagonists' base is also a world-destroying {{Kaiju}}. Both shows even have a female character named Saya.
153	** Hyuuga's initial attire for the first half of the series resembles the clothing ensemble worn by [[Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger Geki]].
154	** Many of the Balban generals are individually chosen to lead the charge until they die and get replaced, much like the higher-ranked Black Cross Army members in ''Series/HimitsuSentaiGoranger''.
155	** Giga Bitus is an homage to the old Super Sentai flying fortresses which carried the mecha--it's almost an [[{{Expy}} updated version]] of the Jaguar Vulcan from ''Series/TaiyouSentaiSunVulcan''. It also emerges from a waterfall, akin to the Turbo Ranger carrier used by the [[Series/HikariSentaiMaskman Maskmen]].
156	* {{Narrator}}: Not just any narrator, but Creator/NorioWakamoto himself.
157	* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Thanks to Iliess and Bucrates framing Budoh and sabotaging his attempt to get the Lights of Ginga, not only no do they ruin their best chance to revive the Daitanix, but the Gingamen end up getting it, making them an even tougher threat for the Balban.
158	* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: The Balban are {{alien\|Invasion}} SpacePirates whose {{M\|onsterOfTheWeek}}ajin are divided into 4 groups with a specific theme. See GangOfHats above.
159	* OddlyNamedSequel2ElectricBoogaloo: This is (so far) the last Sentai series to have the suffix "-man" in its title, which was used in several seasons throughout the [=80s=] and early [=90s=] (from ''Series/DenshiSentaiDenziman'' to ''Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman'') but fell out of usage in favor of "-ranger" following ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger''.
160	* OffTheShelfFX: In Chapter 29, Biznella kidnaps Hikaru and Hyuuga with a giant slinky.
161	* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: After receiving a scar on her forearm from Hayate in #10, Shelinda vows revenge on him.
162	* OnlyOneName: Apparently, the tribe the Gingamen come from don't have surnames.
163	* PlanetEater: Daitanix devours entire planets, transforming their essence into Star Soul Jewels [[spoiler:that grant immortality]].
164	* PlotArmor: Happens a couple times:
165	** [[spoiler:In Episode 17 at the end, Ryōma gets dragged to the ground and blown up by over a dozen robotic humanoid bombs. Said robots have explosive power to demolish a '''skyscraper''' each. Ryōma survives the explosions by being saved Bull Black through unexplained means.]]
166	** [[spoiler:In Episode 47 The Gingaman (sans Hikaru) are held hostage by Biznella to be used in a trap for Hikaru to fall in by having a fake Earth Demon Beast lure him to his team and blows them up. He succeeds with this trap, but the Gingaman survive the explosion with no explanation given as to how they survived it.]]
167	* PoisonousPerson: [[spoiler:The Earth Demon Beast. It grows by feeding on the Earth's lifeforce, and spits a poison slime that kills plant life.]]
168	* PrimalStance: The Gingamen pose like their respective animals.
169	* PushyGunTotingVillain: [[MeaningfulName Gun]] Boss Sambash is a particular big example, he's a trigger-happy gun-wielding general serving Captain Zahab and leader of the Sambash Majin Gang who often is at odds with the eldest member of the pirates, Bucrates, for his trigger-happy and reckless attitude. He is defined by loving to kill others for fun and is quick to resort to using his guns with lethal intent when angered. Furthermore he's also selfish, cowardly and dishonorable in stark contrast to the other villains of the show, going as far as plotting against his fellow villains when he encounters a chest that may contain the Lights of the Galaxy which he believes would make him invincible. (and while the latter part also applies to Illies, she at least has some care for her family).
170	* RookieRedRanger: Perhaps the first obvious example in Sentai: Ryōma only joined the team after Hyūga, the first choice as Ginga Red, passed his powers to him.
171	* ScaryScorpions: Kolshizer, the first MonsterOfTheWeek the Gingamen face, is based on a scorpion.
172	* SealedEvilInACan: The Space Pirates Balban were sealed under the ocean for three thousand years by the previous team of Gingaman, but the seal is broken by an earthquake in the modern day.
173	* SharkMan: The Ninja-themed Onimaru and Yamimaru.
174	* ShirtlessScene: In the BeachEpisode, #21, Ryōma, Hayate, and Hikaru.
175	* ShoutOut:
176	** Ryouma and Hyuuga are both named after [[Manga/LegendOfHeavenlySphereShurato Ryuu-oh Ryouma and Ten-oh Hyuuga]], the younger brother and his namesake both possessing a flame attribute.
177	** The three Steel Star Beasts (Giga Rhinos, Bitus and Phoenix) are based on the three great beasts of Jewish mythology: the Behemoth, Leviathan and Ziz, respectively. They are also {{Kaiju}} versions of Showa Era Kamen Riders, being forcefully turned into cyborgs by villians whom they later oppose.
178	* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Balban is actually made up of four different factions who in the first chapter are assigned the order they get to appear -- this is [[EnforcedTrope enforced]] by Zahab, who remembers how [[WeAreStrugglingTogether the constant infighting of the Balban]] caused their imprisonment by the original Gingamen, and sought to prevent it this go-round. Incredibly conveniently, this totally random assignment starts with the weakest group and the next one in line is always a bit stronger than the one before it. [[spoiler: Iliess' impatience with this trope leads her to successfully plot against Budoh with Bucrates.]]
179	* TakeUpMySword: Ryōma gets his powers this way from Hyūga, [[spoiler: who in turn, gets the powers of Bull Black this way as well.]]
180	* TakenForGranite:
181	** Ginga Forest. It does get better in the end.
182	** Some Majin killed by Super Armor Shine Gingaioh:
183	** Also, attempted by the Monster Of The Week on people in Chapter 31.
184	* TechnicolorFire: How [[BigfootSasquatchandYeti Baruki]][[MonsterOfTheWeek baruki]] was summoned through [[SicklyGreenGlow green]] flames
185	%%* TechnicolorMagic: Merudameruda, who has purple skin, a purple snake, a purple whip...
186	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Hikaru and doughnuts.
187	* ViewersAreGoldfish: Every episode when a monster grows, the narrator always gives the same explanation on how Balban Extract works. The detail of the monster losing some of their lifespan when drinking it is never relevant in any episode, making half of the explanation completely pointless.
188	* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler: When Sambash fails in his last scheme, he loses all composure and tries to run Ryōma over before driving off a cliff.]]
189	* WouldHurtAChild: The original Black Knight and the Balban are guilty of such.
190	* YouCantThwartStageOne: [[spoiler: The Gingamen fail to stop Daitanix's revival.]]
