!!Colorless Rangers
[[folder:Colorless in General]]

* AlmightyJanitor: For all events and purposes, they are fully fledged rangers and have divine tools (if limited comparatively versions). However not being associated with any color battalion means they're only given the most menial tasks and most look down upon them.

* TheCavalry: After the Dragon Keepers failed to stop the Giga-Invader Death Messiah, the surviving Colorless Rangers from the Bailong exam ignore orders to stay on standby and join the fight.
* TheTeam: [[spoiler:Other than Ranmaru due to getting injured, the "Hibiki" class cadets put aside their rivalries in order to defeat Executive Peltrola at the end of the Bailong Exams arc]].

An optimistic and friendly ranger cadet.
\\\
Hibiki's introduced partnered up with Yumeko Suzukiri for their daily ranger duties, which he pushes a disguised D to join the rangers when they first met. After discovering D's Duster identity from overhearing his conversation with Yumeko, and learning from D that the battles between the Dragon Keepers and Duster footsoldiers has all been a scripted sham, Hibiki proposes that they work together to change and reform the Ranger Association from the inside. Thus, creating a new generation where humanity and the Kaijin can live in peace.
\\\
After pulling a fake HeroicSacrifice switcheroo with Footsoldier D to save the latter's life, the two of them end up switching places. This allowed D to properly infiltrate the Ranger Assocation in a "Hibiki" disguise while the real Hibiki disappears from sight in order to move towards his goal behind-the-scenes.
\\\

One of the two Blue Battalion candidates amongst Hibiki's Colorless cadet group, and is friends with Eigen. Ranmaru is cowardly, but has a knack for tinkering with technology. Despite ending the exams on the winning cadet team, he ends up not passing due to injury.

* TheBusCameBack: Ranmaru disappears for about 60 chapters following the Bailong Exams. He finally reappears during the Three-Way Battle arc. [[spoiler:Though he's shown to still be bedridden in the hospital due to having not recovered yet from being injured to Peltrola during the Bailong's Nest fight]].
* ChildhoodFriends: He's this with the other Blue Battalion candidate, Eigen. They've been friends long before they joined the Ranger Association to try to become rangers.
* GadgeteerGenius: While his physical prowess is nothing to write home about, he's able to take surrounding appliances and edit them to his advantage. He is also the one who discovered how to access their standard issue weapon's "Burst" form, which all of the Reject Team uses in the last stretch of the Bailong Exams. Some of the Colorless even suggest he would have made for a better Yellow Ranger than a Blue.
* GoThroughMe: [[spoiler: He gets in between an injured Komachi and Peltrola, keeping the latter's attack from finishing her off but getting critically wounded in the process.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Ranmaru pulls this stunt in order to save Komachi from Executive Peltrola. He managed to survive]].
* OnlyMostlyDead: [[spoiler:While he was definitely on death's door when he attempted to save Komachi, Blue Keeper's powers kept him from bleeding out. He's put in intensive care after the battle with Peltrola, but he's barely hanging by a thread]].
* TheQuietOne: He doesn't talk much at first since he's usually seen alongside Eigen, and Eigen usually does the talking for him. After Eigen splits off to join the strong team during the Bailong Exams, Ranmaru's forced to join in with D's weak team, and starts to talk a lot more.
* TheRival: He ends up in this role with Eigen. As the two Blue Battalion candidates, only one is allowed to pass the Bailong Exams.
* RivalsTeamUp: During the Bailong Exams, Ranmaru's forced to team up with Eigen due to the two of them being put into a team as the two Blue Battalion candidates. However, this breaks apart once it becomes clear that only one candidate is allowed to pass, and the candidates end up forming 5-on-5 "strong" vs. "weak" teams.
* SecretKeeper: He's one of the few people who knows that [[spoiler:"Hibiki" is D in disguise. As a part of the plan to convince Ranmaru to join up with his team of weaker colorless cadets, D revealed himself as an Invader to Ranmaru during the Bailong Exams]].
* TheTeam: Once it became clear that Sojiro had put together a "strong team" aiming to win the Bailong Exams, Ranmaru falls in with D's "weak team" alongside Yamato, Angel, and Tsukasa in order to face off against the "strong team."

One of the two Green Battalion candidates amongst Hibiki's Colorless cadet group, and is the oldest of them. As someone who's attempted the Bailong Exams multiple times, but hasn't been able to pass, Sojiro's the veteran of D's cadet group with the most experience of what it's like to be a Colorless ranger. In order to finally win the Bailong Exams, Sojiro goes about creating a team that he believes to be the strongest, which puts his strong cadet team at odds with D's weak cadet team.

* EveryYearTheyFizzleOut: He's taken on the Bailong Exams time and time again to become a Colored ranger, but is never able to truly pass it.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: When D and XX are discussing who to watch out for amongst their ranger cadet group in chapter 17, they go over how Kai, Eigen, Angelica, Sojiro and Renren are the ones to watch out for. Part way through the Bailong Exams, it turns out that they've agreed to become the 5-man "strong" team that D and the other rejected cadets have to face off against.
* KillSteal: Steals a couple Footsoldier hologram kills from D and Tsukasa during the Bailong Nest training in chapter 17. He thanks them for being TheBait.
* TheLeader: In order to win the Bailong Exams, Sojiro's the one who put together the Colorless cadet team of "strong teammates" consisting of himself, Kai, Eigen, Angelica, and Renren, which makes him the overall leader of this group.
* MrExposition: Since he has the most experience as a Colorless cadet amongst D's group, Sojiro has the most knowledge about the Bailong Nest. D gets pissed that Sojiro's been holding back information from the rest of their group, and Sojiro relents to reveal what he knows about the upcoming Bailong Exams.
* {{Retirony}}: Ishikawa has been trying for Ranger for years, but he's getting on in age and has nothing to show for it. The current Ranger Exams, he states, are his last shot at advancing in the system before he calls it quits forever. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, Ishikawa is the only Colorless candidate who dies in Peltrola's assault]].
* TheRival: He ends up in this role with Angel. As the two Green Battalion candidates, only one is allowed to pass the Bailong Exams.
* RivalsTeamUp: During the Bailong Exams, Sojiro's forced to team up with Angel due to the two of them being put into a team as the two Green Battalion candidates. However, this breaks apart once it becomes clear that only one candidate is allowed to pass, and the candidates end up forming 5-on-5 "strong" vs. "weak" teams.
* TheTeam: He goes around and puts together a "strong team" consisting of what he believes to be the five strongest Colorless cadets during the Bailong Exams, which they face off against the weaker 5 Colorless reject team. His strong team consists of himself, Kai, Eigen, Angelica, and Renren.

* CurbStompBattle: The Pink Battalion candidates, Tsukasa and Shippo, were no match for him when they fought on the Bailong Exam's first day. So much so that Renren's seen all roughed up and exhausted once the first day of the exam was over while Masurao remained perfectly fine. Even though he's not seen with the other exhausted Colorless cadets as he immediately went back to the training room after the first day, it's implied that the same beatdown happened to Shippo.

* SecretKeeper: He appears to be the only person who's seen how Pink Keeper acts when it comes to [[spoiler:her weird obsession over her younger brother]].

* CarFu: In chapter 18, his and Angelica's plan to beat Yumeko in the Bailong Exams is to try to run her over with a truck. [[OhCrap It doesn't work]].

* DistinctiveAppearances: He's got two distinctive hair highlights on his front bangs.

* GreenEyedMonster: He has a bit of jealousy towards the popular Red Keeper, Sosei, which Yamato desires to one day get back at Red Keeper for looking past him.
* HaremSeeker: His whole motivation surrounding why he wants to become a ranger is because he wants to have a bunch of girls all being fancied in him.
* NiceGuy: The all-around nice dude amongst the Colorless cadets. Just by noticing that D doesn't know where the Bailing's Nest training facility is at, Yamato is perfectly fine with bringing him along.
* OhCrap: Him and Angelica instantly realize they're screwed the moment Yumeko pops up behind them after their plan to run her over with a truck failed.
* TheRival: He ends up in this role with Angelica. As the two Yellow Battalion candidates, only one is allowed to pass the Bailong Exams.

* HyperAwareness: She appears to be someone who does well at figuring out what others are thinking, which surprises D when she guesses right that he was thinking that she comes off as a "loose and talkative person" to him when he first meets her.
